Math is amazing!

  • I’m really bad at arithmetic so it took me two years to do the calculations, but the math does check out.

    • Why the fuck are they so sensitive?

  • When I first moved to Japan over twenty years ago they were already about a hundred years ahead of typical US toilet/bath technology. For me, using one of these faucets where you can just set the temperature by number was like Liko getting beamed from her hut directly onto the damn Enterprise.

    • Why the fuck are they so sensitive?

    • YKK’s Self-Propelled Zipper: Less Crazy Than It Seems

  • Can they add a little speaker and have it play some smooth jazz when unzipping?

    • Caught by wife

  • It’s the same soap and water either way, right? What about sex toys? Am I supposed to wash those in the toilet or something?

    • AI will never be able to write like me.

  • I feel like even AI will be able to emulate this kind of speech, but the upside is people with dementia won’t feel so alienated anymore.

    • strobe party

  • Randall Munroe has joined the conversation

    • What's your best Lemmy post or comment so far?

  • I just got back from visiting my parents who were struggling to fix an unreliable dishwasher that keeps clogging, fails to dry, stinks, etc. This is PERFECT timing for that video!

    • Name of exercise machine (?) with three concentric rings and a person strapped into the middle spinning in all directions?

  • A similar machine also plays a role in the 1997 movie Contact.

    • You've got 5mins hide 10k in 100 dollar bills in your home. If searchers can't find it after 2 hours searching you can keep it. Where do you hide it?

  • Slip them into some ziplock baggies and bury them inside the mass of leaves clogging my gutters and downspouts.

    • Whats your favourite four letter word?

  • Hewn

    • The largest number that can be put in Lemmy (Lemm.ee) without including commas

  • Wouldn’t the largest number be all nines?

    • Anyone here into aromatherapy?

  • I have been experimenting with bath bombs and other related products and have found a great product from Japan: Bub bath tablets

    They are way cheaper than bombs and are just as fragrant. There is a variety pack that has sandalwood, lavender, ginger/bergamot, and eucalyptus tabs.

    • Definitely didn't waste half an hour making this

  • Am I a psychopath for preferring to use a pen, even if it means I have to cross things out every now and then?

    • Your Android phone will run Debian Linux soon (like some Pixels already can)

  • That headline got me really excited before I realized they meant “in an app”.

    • Im watching an episode of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, filmed in black and white. In this scene a guest is showing glass making. What is going on with the film to make these black areas by the flame?

  • If this was filmed in the late sixties using an older orthicon camera it might be an artifact of the way that the image is produced.

    I'm just going from memory, but I believe the tubes used a brightness-amplifying screen kept charged with electrons that, when struck by light, would result in a brighter image that could be scanned by a beam. The downside of this technique is that a very bright area would suck up electrons from around it faster than they could recharge, resulting in a dark halo.

    I think I remember some of the oldest classic Doctor Who episodes has this visual artifact, as well as some old Beatles TV recordings.
