This seems like something that should be true, but I think I remember seeing a Mythbusters episode where they decided it didn't make a difference. That show was more about entertainment than science, so I wondered if there was a more rigorous study done? I've definitely seen splashes of water(?) come out from flushes so that...

Wow, what a great adventure! If you haven’t heard of it, it’s about an English sea captain who gets marooned in Japan around 1600, and has to adapt to Japanese culture. Lots of politicking, romance, and decapitation. Very loosely based on real people too....

So I’ve got some rusty old floor screws that I can’t loosen with a Phillips head (they’re old, so I’m betting it’s not posidrv). The notches are all rusted and it hardly bites at all....

Side note: It’s also called Parizer in reference to Paris, the city that is neither Bologna, nor Lyon, another french city which would be the actual origin of the sausage.

It seems like its just for.memes in general with no specific …rules but at times it also seems to revolve around LGBQT+ content, also what is with the constant mention of ‘rule’?...

So I’d heard lots of good things about this game and decided to finally give it a go. I picked up the PS3 HD collection, which includes Ico and SOTC....

I’m not sure if this is the right community or not, but I’m curious what y’all would think if they came out with a new show set in the Enterprise era. Ent is one of my favorite shows, and I always felt like we got screwed out of some really compelling TV when they ended they stopped making Trek after ENT ended. That era of...

I have a fairly old router that doesn’t support gigabit. I also have a network switch that does support gigabit. If I connect two devices directly to the switch, then connect the switch up to the router, will the connection between the two devices support gigabit? If I’m understanding correctly the router would just act as...

I’m working on a hobby project of mine which requires Gnu Make 4.4. I am now trying to setup the project’s Travis pipeline on github. Travis, understandably, only offers LTS Ubuntu images and sadly Gnu Make 4.4 is not available on those images....

Hi Everyone! Lately I’ve been captivated by the idea of self-hosting, and 2 days ago I got an old laptop from my sister and now I think it’s time for me to actually try. I have ZERO experience: I’ve always been interested in Tech and I like to try and play with lot of stuff, but apart from super basic use of bash and some...

I’d guess the simple answer may be that people don’t care/know, but for those that have ditched Facebook for whatever reason, yet still use Instagram, it’s a little surprising....

Thinking of self installing a 5kW solution onto a South facing garage. DIY solution appears to be 60% cheaper than hiring a local installer (Ohio)

Currently reorganizing my library and now I am kinda confused....

So I’m a kid who grew up with Gundam Wing and only came to the UC as an adult. Always loved those troubled boys in mech suits and grown to understand how horrifying Gundams are as I have rewatched shows as an adult. Bog standard...

I’m a huge fan of comic books and deep space nine I saw that two new comic series came out “star trek defiant” and “star trek dog of war” the series are quite expensive for someone who doesn’t have a lot of money, I just wanna ask those of you who’ve read em are they worth picking up?

Marvel’s Avengers was a 2020 game developed by Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix Europe. It featured an original story and a roster of Avengers to play as (the game launched with 6 characters, with 5 more added as free update. If you play on PlayStation, you get Spider-Man as an exclusive as well). The gameplay...

The reason I’m asking this is the company I work for develops an application which has a barcode reader functionality. The device we develop these softwares for has a very limited resolution camera (2MP). Now they want me to set a benchmark for the maximum length barcode pattern which is scannable. So what I’m trying to do...

I started reading this book because of the amount of people that describe it as a ‘must read’ for Japan travel enthusiasts or in general, people that feel curious about the country and its people....

I like to pass output of this command:...
