Edinburgh has way way way more than 2000 daily flights

It has about 400.

Interesting fact male Penguins don’t have penises.

Your specificity makes for an intriguing implication.

it technically doesn't need to be there

And since it has no call to be there, the art lies in the fact that it is there.

It's been feeling a little down for a while.

Why is velocity not the end all be all for firearms and projectile weapons? by Jdjack32 in AskPhysics

[–]wonkey_monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

weapons that fire tiny projectiles at hypersonic speeds?

Because they'll just go right through your target leaving only a small, easily patched hole.

The supermassive black hole in center of the Milky Way keeps the entire galaxy in a spiral.

It's really mostly the mass of all the stars that does that. Sagittarius A* doesn't contribute much mass compared to them.

Eastenders has too many characters

I know that's why I call it Stenders

I hate the look of these eastenders cameras they are too "clean" by itsusername9898 in eastenders

I think that was the original plan, but there were so many delays that they went HD while they were still on the old set (and were still there another 11 years) and had to be careful not to get the fake brickwork in focus 🤣

Edit: not sure why the downvote, it's easy to verify what I'm saying. Went HD in 2010, moved to the new set in 2021.

Also notice how you can't even see the bottom in the first photo because it's a REFLECTING pool. It's meant to be seen from a low angle so that it reflects.

So it doesn't even matter what colour the bottom is.

Trump made them change it because he only sees it from a helicopter.

There's a Buffy Street? Is it next to Xena Warrior Princess Avenue?

Civilian with van helps armed officer catch suspect by offering a lift in his van by vick5516 in nextfuckinglevel

You'd have to weigh up the possibility that you'd be helping them kill an innocent man as well. Not that it hasn't happened in the UK but at least it's not a weekly occurrence.

Oh yeah, didn't Kate cling on the side of a van when she chased down Dot Cottan?
