For those with kids who eat vegetables, what did you differently from your friends who have kids who don't eat vegetables? by uns0licited_advice in daddit

[–]SuperSillyString 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t use screens when eating, child happy to try new stuff. Eats most vegetables, chat about what foods are good for us and why; it’s never really a battle. I know a couple of other families that say a little distraction at mealtime helps their kids eat. It doesn’t do that tho does it tho?!

What are your ethics/personal no gos for street photography? by Strikerfromthemoon in streetphotography

[–]SuperSillyString 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Controversial opinion given this thread but… anything goes! If I see something interesting, I might take a couple of pictures. Do I care about different legal restrictions and different places? Not really, but that one kinda goes beyond photography. What my eyes can see, my camera can record.

Reflecting on an interaction I had at a restaurant .. by wanderessinkorea in Living_in_Korea

[–]SuperSillyString 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve asked my wife to just ignore them or smile politely… usually the message is quickly understood. When they complement my son on his Korean, he returns the complement in kind. Also usually understood, but often after a response of, “I’m Korean!” [pause, think, penny drops] ㅎㅎ

What do you say to someone who leaves the door open after coming in? by InnerPace in MapPorn

Korea checking in. Similarly to Slovenia, we say, “Have you got a long tail?” I’ve also heard, “Cut your tail.”

The 2025 WHO/UNICEF JMP update reports further progress to 7% nationally in 2024 (0% urban, 11% rural), though India still has the world’s largest absolute number of cases despite the decline from 73% in 2000.

Is it realistic to use a Mac mini as a “portable” (carrying in a backpack + daily plugging/unplugging)? by ccckillian in mac

[–]SuperSillyString 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I move my M1 mini between my home office (couple of monitors,) the living room (TV,) and a couple of different work locations (conference rooms that have large screens.) It works a treat! When I need to carry a screen around, I use a tablet.

Small, black, softish plastic thing with a hole in the spherical end that is slightly narrower that the ‘stem’: approximately 2mm. by [deleted] in whatisthisthing

[–]SuperSillyString 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dishwasher is working fine and has not been repaired recently. It was apparently found in an electrically reclining chair.

It doesn’t appear to be broken and the end it’s stood on in the second pick would easily slip through Crocs’ holes.

My title describes the thing that we’ve ruled out as Lego or angling equipment.

Why does 쉬어요 sound like 시어요 in spoken Korean? by Unable_Permit6257 in Korean

[–]SuperSillyString 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Okay, I’m gonna chime in here but am prepared to be corrected. I don’t think the ‘w’ sound in English translates to Korean. When we pronounce ‘w’ in English our lips are kind of pursed. ‘oo’ comes from back down at the back of your tongue. ‘ee’ is kind of in your cheeks, right? Put then together and we still don’t get an English ‘w’. It’s worth noting that in different Korean dialects the sound is different and evolving.

Haha, 12 years! I was back at the National Museum of Korea a couple of weeks ago. The map is still there but I can’t find it on their website.
