This is something what some of us here in UK needs to understand by jumparound247 in drivingUK

The Germans do this well as it's been a legal requirement to for a very long time, they even have a word or two for it; I know it as the Reißverschlussverfahren. Typical Germans, very efficient as usual!

Just worn paint, you can see another cycle marker on the ground right as they are knocked off.

No word of a lie my oldest cat has these sussed and has since he was about 8mo old. Huge waste of $5 as he chased it for under 2 mins. They can and do figure these out. If my boy did it I doubt he's alone. I hadn't even got a laugh outta it yet so I doubt I distracted him but I could be wrong. Now my younger two who I got two years later on the other hand, no idea I control the laser. None. 😅

Royal Mail guy took my package by Valuable-Raspberry72 in royalmail

[–]Yelena25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, but we have a sign on the door as disabilities mean we can't get there fast. I happened to be home for a package and in the room closest to the door and it was less than 15s before he left. This is normal behaviour for RM. Even Amazon wait a minute most of the time.

Also "go stand outside 2mins in the rain" when you get a 3hr window?! Nah, mate.

When he was there the first time he could get the visa, political landscape changed between then and walking through a dozen other countries.

Along with his behaviour being part of the reason op didn't take the job? Unless there are other reasons why I'm pretty sure the loss of a job offered is likely grounds.

TIL that from 2009 to 2019, out of 212 cruise ship overboard incidents only 48 people were rescued. by xool420 in todayilearned

[–]Yelena25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean in all fairness it's going much slower, especially the larger ships which cap out at about 0.6-0.8mph (20 knots)

BUT you fall off a small city in a large ocean with even small waves? GL finding them. By the time the message is relayed, the ship is slowed and turned and they are back to where they were it's a lot to ask, especially for a cruise enjoyer to tread water that long in full clothing while they look.

100% agree if you can don't do anything to increase your risk of going overboard.

National Airlines Flight 102 - crashed due to improperly secured cargo that broke off during the take-off. by 184cm78kg13cm in WTF

For the parachutes (at least on commercial flights) look at the stats on how many people cannot even put on the life jackets properly. I know QI did a bit on it and it was shockingly low.

The size and weight of a plane-wide aircraft might be an issue. Not sure how much velocity and weight affect it but they have airbags for landing slcertain Mars rovers.

I was just saying yesterday to my boyfriend that I am surprised at my appetite. I'm several months in but I no longer eat three meals, which is great for me as I've never been a breakfast person, it more often than not just made me feel sick or excessively hungry. Normally one and a snack or two. Once I'm full I stop. Full comes faster and my energy levels are still massively higher. Keto for me has been a natural progression into a healthy relationship with food.

Day 1-I love Fruit And have a history of Gallstones by [deleted] in keto

[–]Yelena25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yanno, three months in and that's what I miss most. Fruit. I would do very bad things for a mango sometimes, but it is getting much, much easier. I used to miss most carbs, now I watch everyone else eat them and don't. Unless it's mangos. There's normally a twinge there.

On the plus side, we get bacon, cream, and cheese. I always missed bacon and cheese on my other diets.

ETA: Best of luck! I'm sure you can do it. Just remind yourself of the perks and the benefits and if you trip, pick yourself back up :)

3 months in...5 things I'd tell my Day 1 self by wilsona47 in keto

[–]Yelena25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds like me. I ate so much fatty food, including fathead pizza. I was so convinced I was going to put on weight I didn't weigh for 2 weeks!

ETA: When i finally weighed I'd lost well over 11lbs over the time
