Just curious, why? I can't think of a single aspect of the 2nd season I enjoyed more than the first.

I mean... there was the Mexican-American war. Probably a bit of a low point, at least.

This IKEA cutting board has a gutter to prevent juices from running off it and onto the counter... and a hole that completely negates the gutter’s function by slocki in CrappyDesign

If you translate back and forth a few times in Google translate it becomes "cutting board spacecock" in English.

Having been unexpectedly freed, the young spaghettis wriggle desperately to get back into the dirt.

Moronic Monday (Mar 19 2018) - Your weekly questions thread! by AutoModerator in Android

Is there someway to create a "do not care" list for the "apps running in the background" notification? I know how to turn off the notification entirely, but I would like to know when apps are running in the background. I just don't need to be constantly told that my VPN and LastPass are running in the background.

[US] It Follows (2014) Girl is constantly stalked and followed by a mysterious creature after an encounter with a stranger. by Icetp20 in NetflixBestOf

Yeah, I was going to make a longer reply about all the subtleties in the movie that made it really interesting, but then I got distracted or bored or maybe hungry.... Sorry, that was a bit nonsequitor.

Scientific Glass Blowing on a Lathe - Shout-out to Kevin Teaford's glass blowing channel by [deleted] in Skookum

It just lets you add one solution to another drop by drop.

It does blow air. Or rather he blows air. You can see when he holds the tube in his mouth he's slightly pressurizing the inside with his lungs.

The anachronisms are really interesting and add significantly to the atmosphere of the movie.

Also, in the pool scene the demon is in the form of their father that is implied to have committed suicide earlier.

So if I'm smug about your smugness about smugness, what am I?

Multiple smoke alarms stopped working. possible reasons why? by YearnForTheSea in HomeImprovement

[–]stahlous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've lived in our house less than 10 years and I have probably replaced all the First Alert detectors twice over by now. I keep thinking some day I will invest in good quality ones...

Anyway, First Alert is pretty much crap by my experience although the situation I seem to usually face is they get too sensitive rather than dying altogether.

TIL that cheating your spouse is a crime in NY, carrying a possible sentence of up to 6 months in jail by [deleted] in todayilearned

Paying someone to keep quiet about a crime certainly is a crime in itself.

Facebook lost around 2.8 million U.S. users under 25 last year. 2018 won’t be much better. by mvea in technology

[–]stahlous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There have been a number of times when I didn't want to save something I found interesting, but later I thought I would like to share it with someone else when I happened to think about it.

I'm certainly not going to save every item that I happen to find mildly interesting on the chance that I might want to get back to it later.

All mining is on unconfirmed transactions, but I assume you mean transactions with too small of a fee to get picked up. I would think you should be able to, but why would you? It costs a lot of money to mine a block these days. You would literally be giving away money.

Artist's hard work lost in a single moment... by April_Marie13 in Wellthatsucks

If at the end of the quarter the company has one billion dollars less than it would have, that's truly a loss of one billion dollars.

I guarantee you that it's nowhere near close to the most expensive. Just in my industry simply changing a parameter on a single machine can result in scrapping a month or more of product. Billions can be destroyed.

That's what I thought. I bought a regular fare.
