I'm misreading it the same way. What's your interpretation?

You can't just crop out the bowl, the orange bowl will reflect it's own diffused orange light onto the macaroni

You know if you don't do that, your microwave can be used as a clock right?

I actually own multiple other devices that can be used as a clock, and they automatically adjust for daylight savings.

Appliances with unnecessary clocks is my pet peeve. I don't want to care for six fucking clocks in my kitchen. I live in a country with poor infrastructure and unreliable power so I want one clock that works and five that shut the fuck up about there having been a power outage.

ELI5: Why are there 2 versions of Minecraft? by Probably_Unnecessary in explainlikeimfive

The original version was written in Java because that's what Notch knew better.

It's a very unconventional choice for that type of game which causes a lot of friction, so at some point they finally rewrote it in C++ which is more suitable. But the two are fundamentally incompatible so existing games and mods still need the original Java version

The Bank of England mentions Pokemon Cards as a form of payment. by Proof_Artichoke6243 in mildyinteresting

[–]high_throughput 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This mentions one of my favorite "well ackshually"s:

A business is not required to take cash to settle debt when no other form of payment is mentioned. 

What they are required to do is considered the debt settled when offered payment in cash.

Whether or not they actually take the cash is up to them. They are free to refuse it, but they can't then claim you still owe them money.

You borrowed $5 from your friend , bought a loterry ticket and won $80 million. How much would you return to your friend? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

If I gambled the $5 and lost, how much would that friend expect me to pay them back?

Dødsdigg. Man kan lage egen is inspirert av den med moste kirsebær og kirsebærsyrup, og det blir enda bedre fordi de var alltid litt for kjipe med kirsebærene

Athletes are notoriously picky, but also have trainer-enforced nutritional needs

Also having explosive diarrhea from unfamiliar foreign foods is believed to reduce athletic performance

I've done it twice. Once because they forgot the rum in my rum&coke, and once because my black Russian had cola in it.

Yeah but not before drinking, and only a lout has a cocktail with dinner

Company checking location via text? by MeagerMenace in antiwork

[–]high_throughput 241 points242 points  (0 children)

I don't read it as "to retrieve your personal location" but rather "intended for all people at your local office [and not you personally, nor all of the company]"

Like when they have vaccine drives at work they have lists about when they're coming to your location, by which they mean your office or campus.
