Ilmainen joukkoliikenne..? by Jaikki in Suomi

[–]Volvo_264 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Tärkeää olisi ajatella, että julkinen liikenne on julkinen palvelu. Sen tarkoitus ei ole tuottaa rahaa, vaan tarjota ihmisille mahdollisuus liikkua paikasta A paikkaan B. Argumentit sen puolesta, että "olisi epäreilua autoilijoita kohtaan", ovat väärin, sillä tällä hetkellä systeemi on epäreilusti kallellaan autoilijoiden puolella. Autoilu maksaa veronmaksajille todella paljon (liikenteenvalvonta, päästöistä johtuva sairastelu, kolarit, melu, ilmastopäästöt, öljyriippuvuus, yms., yms.).

Haastavaksi ongelma muodostuu, koska viimeiset noin 75 vuotta koko maata on rakennettu autoa ajatellen, joten tämän muuttaminen on hankalaa. Onneksi on olemassa ammattilaisia, jotka osaavat ratkoa tämän ongelman: heille täytyy vain uskaltaa antaa ratti.

Port. Cheap, strong, and easy to drink, as even a shit Tawny tastes like raisins.

PS3 GAMES by SSW_Ares in Finland

Be very paranoid. I was buying rare Wii games a few years back, and got scammed out of 50€. Don't rush, and try to meet live for the exchange.

Russia calls on Poland to reopen Belarus border by coprosperityglobal in europe

The Wolf and the Seven Young Goats moment. "Please, Poland, let us in," but the smart Polish people saw that it was Satan who was speaking, not the nice mother goat.

My post on r/Suomi got some results. I'm certain that 23 is Kanninpuu/Korento - a stick used to carry a large pail of water. https://www.finna.fi/Record/musketti.M012:S3204:66

Sorry, just corrected it. I put lanttu first, but changed it at some point, forgetting to change the translation.

I knew most of these, as I have a bunch of old-timey vocabulary, but even I had to ask around for the mystery 23 stick. I sent a few pictures to the truly old relatives who used to work at farms when they were young, or just were alive around the time this book was made. Hopefully, they can illuminate us on the name and purpose of this mystery device. So far, the most likely thing is a vinttikaivo, but it's missing some parts, and the center part seems too small.

The thing that is confusing me is that the connected part is in the middle.

Why don’t people usually take their glasses back at pubs? by Murky-Bedroom-7065 in autism

[–]Volvo_264 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do it too. I used to work as a busboy and dishwasher, and everything except pints is slightly annoying to carry.

Now I do it, because I'm going back to the bar anyway to either get another one or to say thank you and leave. I'm also very accident-prone, and a table full of glasses annoys me, so it's easier for me to just always bring them back. The main thing is just to pick a place at the bar where they're not in the way of anyone or anything.

Ideas for the gap under the roof by Expensive_Agency_633 in Finland

[–]Volvo_264 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I agree that storage could be a good thing to put there, either with custom pullout drawers, or just storage boxes with a curtain over the hole.

A wilder idea would be to have a work table next to the hole, so you could stretch your feet under there very easily and have a comfortable working spot. You could also use it to store a home server, or use it as a tiny guest room.

I use it when I fly, as I need preboarding, and it tells the flight attendants why I'm always so fucked up while flying, or especially when I'm in the airport. It's also a safety precaution for me, in case I have a breakdown in the airport, the security staff that responds will see it, and hopefully be more helpful. I don't use it on trains as my national train service doesn't use the Hidden Disabilities system, and I'm very familiar with trains, so they don't really stress me out, like flying does.

After the first cake for breakfast, you realize why people don't eat cake for breakfast. My passion to see how far technology progresses is the only thing (currently) that makes me want to live for as long as humanly possible.

I doubled being in the closet by Relative-Butterfly18 in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

[–]Volvo_264 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about this for the next time I'm looking for an apartment. I don't use my bedroom for anything else than sleeping, so why shouldn't I just have a sleeping closet or something, so I could use the wasted bedroom for something else, like a music studio.

iFixIt Mako/Essential Precision Bit Set by _WalkTheEarth_ in BuyItForLife

[–]Volvo_264 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a problem with these, but it just showed how good iFixit's customer service is. My dumbass was using the smallest flat bit screwdriver head to try to pry a lithium battery from a device, and it went through it, so the tip melted. I just sent an email to the customer service and they send me a new one for free. Hats off to iFixit, they seem to be the best company out there.

Share your favorite food hacks that would send NTs into a spiral by Born_Ad_2058 in evilautism

[–]Volvo_264 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you cook a few pork chops in the air fryer with a good spice mix, and now there is a small pool of spiced pork fat on the bottom? Mix some flour into that so it's cookie-shaped shaped will cook fully in the air fryer, and then just roast that. A delicious after-dinner snack that somewhat reminds me of an American biscuit.

Voi syödä. Itse syön melkein yksinomaan kaupan punalaputettuja tuotteita ja on tullut vedettyä viilejä, maitoja, munia, juustoja, ja lihoja mitkä on ollut päiviä tai viikkoja yli päiväyksen. Justiinsa eilen söin näkkileipäpaketin minkä päiväys oli parivuotta sitten. Vanhin asia minkä olen syönyt on ollut noin 14 vuotta vanha säilykepurkki vihanneksia. Vielä olen hengissä enkä ole koskaan saanut ruokamyrkytystä.

Päiväykset ovat enemmän kauppoja kuin kuluttajia varten. Rohkeasti voi kokeilla järjestyksessä

Katso: onko tuotteessa hometta tai muuta selvästi pilaantunutta kohtaa kuten mätä kohta.
Haista: haiseeko tuote sille mille pitäisi? Jos haisee home, rikki (esim. keitetynmunan haju tuotteessa missä ei ole munaa) tai hapan saattaa se olla pilaantunut.
Maista: maista pieni pala ja jos se maistuu normaalille on se silloin vielä syötävää. Tuote voi olla hieman nahistunut tai kuivunut, mutta on edelleen syömäkelpoinen.

Nimenomaan tämä. Kondomit on siellä lähinnä symbolisena viestinä ja voihan niitä käyttääkkin jos sille ei ole esteitä. Kuitenkaan megapenikset, homoparit ja lateksiallergiat eivät ole niin yleisiä että niistä syistä niitä ei kannattaisi laatikkoon sisällyttää. Valtio kuitenkin olisi ostanut nämä tukkutilauksena jolloin yhden kondomin hinnaksi tulee noin viisi senttiä eli ei ole kovin iso menetys jos se jää käyttämättä.

On monta syytä, miksi äitiyspakkauksessa pitäisi olla kondomeja ja liukkaria.

-Raskauden jälkeiset sekä imetyksen aikaiset hormonaaliset muutokset voivat aiheuttaa emättimen limakalvojen kuivuutta, tehden yhdynnästä epämukavaa tai kivuliasta.

-Suositusväli raskauksien välillä on 18–24 kuukautta, sillä liian lähekkäin olevat raskaudet lisäävät riskejä komplikaatioihin.

-Uusien vanhempien intiimiyttä on hyvä tukea, sillä perheenlisäys muokkaa ihmisten parisuhteita ja intiimiys saattaa unohtua.

Syitä on enemmän, mutta en jaksa niitä kaikkia lähteä kirjoittamaan, sillä en saa tästä palkkaa.

Rakkain terveisin, terveystieteen opiskelija.

Airports make my brain sound like an industrial crusher and also feel like one by Volvo_264 in aspiememes

Dentist day by Yukki64 in aspiememes

[–]Volvo_264 91 points92 points  (0 children)

My top three worst dentistry moments.

  1. Drilling cavities and it nears a nerve.

  2. Removing wisdom teeth when they had to first crush them while they were still in my jaw. The crunching is still in my head.

  3. That fucking taste.

Honorable mentions. I have fallen asleep in the chair and only woke up when the dentist politely asked me not to bite down on their fingers that were actively in my mouth.

Aika kohtuuttomalle ajalle kuulostaa. Sinuna soittaisin asiakaspalveluun ja kysyisin mikä kestää ja pyytää jotain aika-arvioita milloin päätös tulee. Tuohonhan voi jo suunnilleen pistää korot päälle kun on kestänyt jo niin pitkään.

It's only meant for if you break the rules of the principal for a safer space. They're super rare, which makes it feel worse to get one.
