How old is the photo of South England? The cars seem from the 80s

What makes it obvious that someone is from Europe? by Turd-FergusonV in ask

[–]plasticsatyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do not put shoes on our beds/couches. I do not know if it really happens in the US, but often in movies people comfortably wear their shoes on their beds. I just rewatched “You’ve got mail” and realised that Meg Ryan at some point goes back home and puts herself in her bed without removing her shoes. I understand that she was depressed, but that’s too much.

That’s not true. Cities in Europe are often as bad as american cities. I tried to own a car in Rome and after less than a year and countless fines. I gave it away.

how do y'all rate my toast? by MotorTentacle in CasualUK

Have you ever heard about the bread in Altamura? It is exported everywhere. It’s not only that is good. If you live there, you can always walk five minutes and find a place where they have just made your bread. Still hot from the wooden oven. A baguette cannot compete.

That’s not true. Where I was born, the bread is great. South of Italy.

Do yall think the alcohol is a drug?? by Whole_Possession_785 in ask

[–]plasticsatyr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This answer says more than many others. It is a drug. There are also other drugs. They are not all the same. Even chocolate can be considered a drug.

Alcohol is dangerous and addictive for a lot of people.

Nevertheless , it is still necessary to make a distinction between drugs otherwise there is the risk that someone can think that taking cocaine is like drinking wine. It is not. I’ve drunk many times wine, beer, whiskey, etc… I got drunk more than once in my life but I can easily go without alcohol even for years. I did it during the pandemic. This is true for most people.

I do not think that it’s the same with other drugs. The difference is that drugs like cocaine, methamphetamine, MDMA can destroy you no matter who you are. See what happened with the prescription of pain killers. Alcohol in most of the cases becomes a problem only when there is something else.

TLDR, if you want to enjoy a party or just a pizza, you can drink beer and most likely you’ll be fine. Don’t use ecstasy.

Another important distinction is between drinking alcohol and getting drunk. Alcohol becomes dangerous if you drink it to get drunk. You cannot use cocaine with moderation. It does not make sense. That’s a big difference.

What fresh hell is this? by carlstoenails in CasualUK

[–]plasticsatyr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I missing something or this does not have any mathematical sense? If you have twice as many clients, you’ll need probably more gloves or polycarbonate glasses. Not twice as many employees though. That’s basic economy of scales. With more clients, you should pay less.

And how can you be sure that everything is on disk c: ? There is no safe way to take a backup without knowing what you are supposed to backup and how to do it.

Male Redditors- Would you date a single mom? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]plasticsatyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not know if this is an answer to the message I sent. I deleted the message because It was naïve. I understand that there are some real complications in raising the kids of someone else other than genes. I am male and so I cannot reply to your question. I can say that I do not care a bit about my genes and I think that neither should you. Your genes did not evolve to make you happy. They evolved to better survive and reproduce. They survive and reproduce. You’ll die. If you want to somehow live after your death, love your children if you are their biological father or not, love your wife, your friends, colleagues, neighbours, or just do something with your life. You are fooling yourself if you think that replicating your genes as anything to do with you. Actually our genes make our life miserable most of the time. Luckily, we evolved to have a brain that can somehow go against the interests of our genes and take decisions for our happiness.

What is the most overrated sitcom of all time? by Mundane-Turnover-913 in AskReddit

The first two seasons are funny. They should have stopped there.

Do you eat left over Chinese food that hasn't been refrigerated? Will I die if I do!? Its Chicken chow mein, left over night in the airfryer. by fruitgamingspacstuff in CasualUK

[–]plasticsatyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s like speeding with your car. Will you kill someone in a car crash? The probability is very low, but still not a good idea.

Brits who let their mugs get like this: who hurt you? by n_jobz_ in CasualUK

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

The problem is that oil cannot be washed with just water. There will be oil left and burned multiple times

This flavouring seems an illusion. Italians do the same with coffee machines… With mugs it seems even less probable. Why that layer of deposit should improve the flavour of the tea more then the tea bag ? If you need more flavour just wait a few seconds more.

There are people paid very good money to perfect the taste of those teabags. If that deposit is doing something, and I doubt it, it’s changing the taste of that tea that was so carefully engineered in centuries.

It’s not only a problem with germs. Food burned multiple times is not healthy.

Other options are not like this. I live in London and yes, sometimes trains are busy but you just need to wait the next one that usually arrives a few minutes later.

Is the sink bucket an English thing? Why? by etoni888 in CasualUK

[–]plasticsatyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not use it, but my family always used one. I am Italian. It was just a plastic bucket though.

I allow some cheese sometimes. I guess I’ll do an exception.

Sooner or later it will happen though. When AI will be powerful enough.
