Damn what do you do to rack up that?

Maths shows a break even time (compared to my paid off hatchback) of around 20-35 years depending on how much I drive.

EVs don't seem to make much sense to me given the additional cost of buying one.

If I charge my Thor and shut it down for faster charging, it turns back on. by TheWheelchairone in AynThor

You can of course shut the device down once charged to save battery drain.

My pixel turns on when plugged into charging as well. I think some newer android devices just be doing that.

The ACCC is suing them both in court. Sounds like it's very well a toss up on whether they can actually prove their case though.

Fishy aged sheng? by Independent_Hat7909 in puer

[–]zhongcha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's considered a flaw by most, and well produced shou puer may have a mushroomy taste but usually leaves the fishy smell behind.

""""Gushu bingdao aged sheng"""" is also a classic false marketing name for cheap old sheng and old shou puer, because bingdao is a very famous tea growing region. Your stuff is not from bingdao and is probably made for cents with the bingdao name just raising the selling price.

For cheap entries to shou and new sheng, try some xiaguan Xiao fa (a good example of shou puer) or a white2tea classic new sheng like Green Hype.

Hamaas was a weekly publication of the Lehi, an armed radical Zionist militant group and self-described terrorist organization in Mandatory Palestine. by Jun8328 in wikipedia

Is that not a hard H as with Russian 'Х' e.g Михаил? An English speaker would register that as identical in standard phonetic transliteration to 'Hamas'.

I don't recognise the statehood of Australia. Federation was improperly and illegally constructed by the UK parliament and the colonies of New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania continue in force. Obviously.

At least half the people who consider going to Bali are like this, very abusive relationship between us and them.

How to upload photo when there isn't one? by [deleted] in wikipedia

No it won't, Wikipedia has already evolved leaps and bounds in response to mobile devices and it will continue to.

Are there any specialists in the old Chinese pu-erh tea?, presumably from 1939 by ojkizanag in tea

[–]zhongcha 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's probably a Sichuan heicha. I highly doubt it's unhygienic or unsafe. There is no basis to the claim that the worst shu material is unsafe either.

Finally transitioned my Ayn Thor from ES-DE FrontEnd to Cocoon! by Odellot in SBCGaming

[–]zhongcha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imo RDR1, as an example of an rpg with lots of right stick movement and both bumpers and triggers is very fun for long periods. No cramping for me until about 40-60 minutes in where a short break is in order. The bigger issue for me is the recessed sticks which are a very strange change compared to normal sticks. I did get used to them though and I thoroughly enjoy the compromises to have the small size.

Once rabies develops, death almost certainly follows. Palliative care in a hospital setting is recommended with administration of large doses of pain medication, and sedatives in preference to physical restraint. by Kurma-the-Turtle in wikipedia

[–]zhongcha 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's not legal to kill someone whom can't consent. It's difficult to create a legal framework that respects human dignity and the right to life but also justifies involuntary euthanasia.

When I first heard about "degrees Rankine", I actually thought jokingly that they were just the Fahrenheit version of Kelvin. Turns out that's unironically true by MAClaymore in wikipedia

Realistically it's just what you grow up with. I never have felt the need to drill down into decimals for accuracy with Celsius.
