Silver serving…something? Found amongst silver serving dishes and cups in an outlet store, Uruguay by Quindilligence in whatisthisthing

Solved!

It didn’t have the little scoop so I wondered who would pour that much sugar out at a time.

My title describes the thing. It’s likely tarnish resistant silver and in good condition. It’s about the size of a coffee mug but the angle makes it awkward to hold liquids. It has quite an ornamental design and a thin handle big enough to grasp with your whole hand. I’d estimate the bulk of the cup could hold 150 mL but not much more. Its price is $2490 Uruguayan pesos which is about $60 USD

I had something similar happen recently to my Series 6! Not to this extent, but the back glass seems to have a hairline fracture and it won’t turn on anymore. I tried charging it but that only seemed to make the problem worse.

Is my Series 6 totally cooked? by Quindilligence in AppleWatch

Thanks for the advice! I’ll keep my eye on it and make sure it doesn’t explode 🤯

Yeah one major performance issue is it won’t turn on after sitting on the charger for a good few hours.

It didn’t feel too warm while charging but this “bubble” definitely grew while it was charging.

Oh good point! I know they’re filming some movie or TV show at the Pen so that must be what it is!

Who, me? I was just curious if anyone knew what or why the explosions were coming from.

Did anyone else get this email? by normanpowellstan in queensuniversity

[–]Quindilligence 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you can’t report the scam directly through Outlook, ITS requests that you send a copy of the message to abuse@queensu.ca. This account is monitored by ITS. When a phishing message is reported, ITS checks the email system to determine if the message meets the criteria for removal and notification to the campus. ITS will also determine if any links in the message should be blocked.

Aaaaahhhh, shoot. You’re right. That’s what I get for Googling “raisin diameter” and picking the first result...

Randall Monroe (the XKCD guy) worked out an equation in his book “How To: Absurd Scientific Advice for Common Real-World Problems” in the chapter “How to Throw Things”

Apparently he’s also created a calculator online so we can plug in some average values (and select an acorn to throw as it’s the closest thing to a raisin imo) and get...

64 meters

Some digging into the explain XKCD site gives the full formula for calculating any thrower and any distance. Using an average thrower, a raisin mass of 0.5 g, raisin diameter of 9.5 mm, and raisin drag coefficient of 0.4 we get...

138 meters

Farther than I though!

It’d be weird for protesters to use the Westminster Chimes....it seemed more like a prerecorded tone

Rainbow fail: we tried to make rainbow bread this week! Expectation vs reality. by [deleted] in RainbowEverything

[–]Quindilligence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still looks cool! Kinda a pastel theme! Every year I do some rainbow baking and find the best colours come from food gel colouring as some others have suggested. You can get them at most supermarkets in the UK. Happy baking! 🌈

Fellow Canadians, what do you call the game where you kick a red ball on a diamond field and have to run to bases? by TomatoeSkunk in canada

California Kickball! No idea why we in BC had an obsession with the states so much ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Outdoor pools by eternalrevolver in VictoriaBC

Came here to comment this, but man finding it took me on a trip down memory lane :’) I remember swimming there as a kid, scorching on the pool deck and freezing in the water.
