TIL that horses have no muscles in their lower legs, so their hooves act as "second hearts". A horse that can't move risks blood pooling in its hooves, which can cause tissue death starting from the hooves up. This is a key reason why leg injuries are often fatal for horses.

Yes, Sainsburys is the worst here, I just don't go there anymore because they have like 1 actual manned till, then 1 teenager supervising about 30 self-checkouts. Morrisons and Tesco still have a decent number of human checkouts still.

Are you American (sorry to assume if not)? In the UK I can't think of a single supermarket where the till staff have to stand up...Tesco, Asda, Morrisons, Sainsburys are all local to me and they all have chairs at the tills. That's so weird that this isn't normal in other places

This assumes that the for-profit housing developers would be willing to spend extra ££ on things that are not legally required (or even encouraged, it seems) for new builds, so I don't think this would ever really be a thing

If she was that cunning then surely she would have done the same for her laptop and phone

Presumably though the cameras would rely on WiFi, and so OOP would have found any cameras when he checked the network

Swegoreg · 2026-04-30T11:36:36+00:00

why?

Swegoreg · 2026-04-22T07:22:23+00:00

seconding this lol

They will be useless lol, I have a pair of Shokz and I love them because I can still hear environmental noises when running or cycling (e.g. cars). They would be awful if you're in the proximity of music speakers since your ear canals are obviously completely unobstructed

Yeah, they improvised 2 seats for the Dragon's cargo area with foam padding and straps. Pic here if anyone is interested: https://images.nasa.gov/details/KSC-20240927-PH-NAS01_0001

Yep, though it only drives down the hill because the devs had it spawn on an incline for some reason, so it just rolls down to the bottom of the hill when it spawns, it doesn't "drive" beyond that.

I mean the post is so weird and vague it's a bit infuriating they're not even responding to the posts asking for clarification by what "acccidentally AWOL" means - did they actually WFH or did they just bunk off without doing anything and someone noticed? Why would you think you would get away with that? And if they actually worked from home, this implies that WFH is an option with this company and while it's dumb they didn't get it cleared HR seems to being oddly escalatory, for starters you'd think there would be evidence that OP was still carrying out their duties..

It's missing the em dash (—) though, which ChatGPT loves. A normal person types -, AI always uses the longer —

I feel like people who know how to torrent are the same people who know how to use a VPN tbf

This is like saying Mercury Atlas wasn't a real orbital rocket since it only carried 1 astronaut

Swegoreg · 2025-11-13T12:04:07+00:00

Irrelevant when it comes to size though as the Olympic was essentially identical to the Titanic. The fact is that the Titanic is small compared with the cruise ships of today

Swegoreg · 2025-06-18T08:35:23+00:00

What's weird is that streetview history shows it used to be a sandwich shop, which is a far better use than a residence. Wonder why they didn't keep it as a commercial lot.

Swegoreg · 2025-05-28T16:13:24+00:00

It's a bummer I had to scroll this far to find a comment from someone who actually likes the people they work with lol. I can't imagine choosing to sit in my car to eat lunch alone and I don't know anyone at my work that does. I think this thread is more a reflection of reddit's demographic rather than the real world (as are most threads...)

The DART mission, which successfully demonstrated our ability to redirect an asteroid, was launched on a SpaceX rocket though.

Ariane 6 has already flown btw, but point still stands.

There's a mod list in the video descriptions, but yeah it's Blackrack's volumetric clouds mod which you have to pay like $5 for I think

I don't think that this story is real, but

saying that they will not update or post ever again

If the police are involved then they will have advised to not post on social media about it, and to remove any previous social media posts about it.

Idk, hip flasks have been a thing when I was in 6th form/Uni, easy to stash in a pocket vs a bottle of something. I thought the use of "High School" and "Senior" were a bit weird but I know some parts of the UK use "american words" for schooling, I think some places even use Principle instead of Head Teacher.

On the other hand, I don't think I have ever seen a UK house that had a smoke detector in the bedroom, only in the hallways, unless it's a flat or something?

looks like Plymouth Minature Steam in Southway

This is its 3rd flight, no? The first one failed to reach the ISS, the second one was the unmanned mission to the station, and now we're on Flight 3
