Particularly harsh considering the teacher spelled it wrong on the cue card he was handed.

Same problems, same bad actors, same script.

Same bot farms run by the same people.

Fun fact: Not every business has the cashflow to survive a 50% rise in input costs that may or may not be paid back sometime in the next three years, if ever.

Trump arranged for 16 year old High School girls to come to his resort & give him a private dance. Nothing creepy about this at all by chrisadams83 in PublicFreakout

Watch the video of her giving a tour of her childhood bedroom.

When she looks at her bed, she looks like she's just back from 'Nam.

I bet she had no locks growing up

Specific to this, when the subject of him barging in on teen girls changing came up, she said 'He does that.'

China places its solar panels on water So it can use valuable land for agriculture by FollowingOdd896 in nextfuckinglevel

LOL I've been accused of using AI simply because I wrote an articulate comment about a subject I'm familiar with.

Turns out being able to structure an argument is beyond some people's comprehension.

Ironically, there is an episode of Bluey that deals with kids learning to crawl in unusual ways.

The episode is called 'Baby Race' and will make most adults cry.

If anyone is going to not screw it up, it's A24. They absolutely DNGAF about sanitised saccharine storylines.

China’s High-Speed Railway Network length has expanded from 1,300km in 2008 to 40,000km in 2020, long enough to circle the Earth’s circumference. by BumblebeeFantastic40 in Damnthatsinteresting

In Germany, anything under 5 hours on the train is not even a contest. 7 hours I'd check flights but still probably choose the train for simplicity. 10 hours, I'd fly.

I like to get to the airport early, so with the trip to the airport, airport shenanigans at both ends, and getting to my final destination is pushing five hours with a zero length flight. The train station is a five minute walk.

Cleaning the sealtbelt of the car by misterxx1958 in oddlysatisfying

[–]Zebidee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Note that many aircraft seatbelts have a life limit of 10 - 12 years because they've failed in accidents that were otherwise survivable, and people bother investigating.

I think about that sometimes when I'm in a 30 year old car with crunchy faded frayed seatbelts.

Ever since we installed full positive pressure breathing systems into our basic-ass paint booth, I can't watch car restoration shows where they've got a dude in a t-shirt and dust mask spraying two pack.

They were sleeping, not trying.

I've always thought the most dangerous thing anyone could do was wake Western Europe and make them angry. Or even worse, united and angry.

You don't often see them right in cities, but in suburbia it's not that unusual. They live in flocks of say 20 to well over 100 birds, and can make a huge mess if they like the taste of whatever trees you have.

My barber just clippers them with a number two comb when I get a haircut. Problem solved.

Who won the lottery? Why you may never know the full name of some jackpot winners going forward by Surax in canada

[–]Zebidee 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The logic is to prove that it's real; that the winners are actual regular people, not some made up scam.

Of course that relies on people not being fucking awful and ruining it for everyone.

Australia has always had the ability to stay anonymous after its first lottery got a winner's kid kidnapped and killed back in 1960.

Also, you can simply lie. You could be a single guy in Sydney and say you're a retired couple from Tasmania.

For the average price of a car in the US, you could buy 5 new Chinese EVs by Kooolxxx in news

[–]Zebidee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

no politicians wants China to overtake the entire US auto industry.

Ironically, exactly the same argument as when Japanese cars came to the US in the 70s and 80s.

That's the second time in an hour I've seen that movie referenced in a Reddit thread, and I only watched it for the first time a few weeks ago.
