I seem to remember as a young child being told that it is safe to touch a Van de Graff generator (for the hair demonstration), but that if you let go before it is safe you will get a nasty shock. I know a bit more about electricity now, and I’m a little skeptical now. Is it possible to get a shock from letting go of something?
It’s a classic techno song that might be described as EuroTrance. I think I’ve heard the song but I’m asking for a friend. It’s possible it might be an instance of the Mandela effect because the song can’t be found anywhere.
I am at my wits end with this and kindly ask for assistance....

I use the location tracking of Google Maps/Google Timeline constantly for work, and it’s exceedingly helpful to know when I was at certain cities, buildings, etcetera. Of course, this means I’m basically signing my soul away to Google. But I can’t really find any alternative location tracking apps, even though I would have...

So I sideloaded few apps that are already present in playstore. But whenever I go to my updates menu , I can see all my apps installed via playstore as well as side loaded. Is there a way to stop this?
Is there an easy way to do this? I suppose I could just copy the files manually but is there a better option? Thanks!
Sometimes I think this whole process of deleting content from Reddit in protest hasn’t really worked out for everyone…
lmk if there’s a better community to ask this in
I’ve seen them called “Stop Lines”, “Balk Line”, etc. The thick line painted on the road at a Stop Sign....
Practically every email I’ve received in maybe the past year has started with “I hope you are well”. I even had an LLM draft a placeholder email for me and it started with the same thing. This has not always been the case and it’s strange to me that everyone I interact with begins their emails with this line. Frankly,...
I’ve been seeing a lot of talk about CachyOS recently. Has anyone here tried it? It seems interesting and I might give it a go (currently on EndeavourOS) on a spare drive in my PC.
