As processors get faster, memory access speed gets relatively slower, due to the speed of light (and the physical distance between the CPU and RAM) staying constant. OK, so how do we increase the speed of light? Introduce it to Eastern European driving culture. Everyone here knows you don't get fin...

Are you always so supsicious*?

*Hang on, why on Earth does this word mean both something arousing suspicion and someone with suspicions about something? Isn't this a tad confusing?

somitomi

Wrong. Everything is Batman because I'm BATMAN!

There's no way something is not a beer opener.

somitomi

Ummm, no?

Something I don't have to shamefully Google?

Did somebody say Teenyverse?

Do you never think about what you'd do if you found a burglar in your home? And what's weird about hoping to never get into a situation where I need to use violence to defend myself?

Get rid of the penny and the nickel. This. Both the penny and the nickle are worth less than the metal used to mint them. Arguments about how "rounding is bad" will be ignored, because we already do that at gas stations (9/10 of a cent?), and nobody is trying to change that. I've seen not...

It says "Open 24 Hours", not "Open 24 Hours a Day". That means the store gets 24 hours total operational time. Then they have to bulldoze it and start a new one. Reminds me of an old Michael Wright (?) joke where he shows up at some 24/7 convenience store and the door is locked....

I'm going to go with relative, because it is a human construct and changes a lot as a result. Different individuals or groups can have different ideas about what is and what isn't moral, even the same group's idea can change over time.

Saying "OPEN 24 HOURS" to advertise never closing always seemed weird to me. Such places usually call themselves "non-stop" or "éjjel-nappali" (~"night-and-day") here, which I find much more straighforward. Surely customers don't really care about how long the...

I'm not sure about what the scenario is based on that drawing: 1) Car is moving, wheels are locked up (not rotating) : the orientation of the wheels is irrelevant, using the equation F lat =F vert *μ kin is good enough to my knowledge. The downward force on each wheel depends on acceleration and suc...

You get all your pennies back with a note saying "We don't accept useless coins" and a piece of chewing gum in exchange for the random bits.

For some reason the name "Discord' always makes me think it has to do with vinyl records, maybe because of the similarity to Discogs.com (which is an invaluable resource). Anyway, I might give it a try sometime, but it's late now.

So, what's the punishment for breaking the rules of the thread?

I thought "postmodern retro" was yet another musical sub-sub-subgenre I've never heard of.

Well, did you come up a viable method of transporting an opened bag of chips fast enogh to prevent them going stale?

When had I talked about the chips before now? Aren't you confusing me with a different bird?

Did I just ruin my image as a master ornithologist?

Didn't you say you don't like them? Besides, isn't the goal to get rid of the chips somehow?

This is a late response, but I get so confused: Rayleigh died in 1916, and scattering his ashes made the sky blue? What color was it before? Gray, of course: haven't you watched any old movies? :p So how come it's blue in old paintings then? I know artists are bit of loonies, but did all of them ju...

Who said the chips need to get through the internet? Couldn't we just get them by air mail?

Upon re-reading this thread, I was utterly confused until I realised you aren't Earthling on Mars (you'd think playing the avatar game would teach me not to identify users based on avatars, but nope).

Two generations away as in there are two generations between me and them? I think not since my great-grandmother passed away when I was a kid.

You know about at least one family member (living or dead) who has been in a war.
