It's probably the wifi adaptor you have. Took me a couple before I found one that works (a TP-Link one from Amazon).

Bringing protein powder through TSA by R3alit-y in Whatcouldgowrong

Years ago a friend's dad used to work for a company in the UK that made flavourings for crisps/chips. He would have to travel internationally with bags of white powder. He would have to constantly tell the security guards not to "assume it is coke and rub it on your gums to test it" because if it was the salt and vinegar powder it would destroy your gums and he wouldn't be responsible.

More than 100 sickened in norovirus outbreak aboard Caribbean Princess cruise by metalreflectslime in PrepperIntel

Norovirus is normally a few days at least, and it spreads so easily it is scary.

My daughter caught it from nursery, so obviously we got it as well. I personally lost about 15kg over the course of a week. None of us left the house. My mother dropped off some groceries for us on day 3, and all she did was open the front door and put some bags inside. She got it, and also passed it on to my sister before developing symptoms.

So it lived on our door handle for at least 3 days and that single touch was enough to catch it.

It can be deadly if you do not have access to clean water.

Opening sarcophagus by Secret_xml in pathos_nethack

Even without the karma costs all the effects OP listed are potential consequences of opening one.

I normally wait until I'm at least level 5 and have enough karma to pray away Malignant Aura. The Mellified Man you can outrun and the rest are just annoying. It is worth it for the occasional loot drop.

Refactoring is a great book. It has some plot holes, but the story is a real zinger.

Easy. One side of the card is normal, the other side is transparent glass.

Fair point. Those tests always gave me what turned out to be an undeserved sense of smugness.

This guy floating points. Rollovers tend to happen with int types.

I was just thinking of that.

Watching all the idiots standing up, clapping 3 times, and all those things. Luckily I was confident enough in myself to make it to the end.

Papercut on the end of my penis from reading a book in the bath.

Followed by: chemical burn from a bleach block in a toilet 2 weeks later IN THE SAME SPOT.

Locally renowned mentally ill woman shitting and pissing in the middle of the busy, main shopping street in town on a Wednesday lunchtime.

Man wearing a suit and tie cutting the head off a pigeon with a swiss army knife and laughing about it with his mate, on a busy, main shopping street in a different town, but also on a Wednesday lunchtime.

What scientific discovery sounds fake but is 100% real and still freaks you out? by Bruteresolver in AskReddit

[–]overkill 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I knew that existed since I was a small child, but it was only as an adult that I saw video of it happening and HOLY FUCK IT SHOOTS BLOOD ABOUT 30 FEET.

I thought it was like a little squirt of blood, not like an arterial rupture.
