Siegfried , in Somehow USB disks are still the easiest and most reliable way

There is a little “most advanced transfer solutions” in your Spyware

son_named_bort , in Somehow USB disks are still the easiest and most reliable way

I’ve been using floppy disks. You mean there are other options now?

Facebones ,

I need a USBC floppy drive now. “Hey, can I get that pic you took?”

“Sure! Its on these 4 floppies!”

Hobbes_Dent , in This explains much.

You could win that one though. It was time-able iirc.

how do you time something when it uses a random delay?

RNG manipulation to get the initial delay to be exactly what you want. Or just wait a few cycles to see what time table you’ve been given before you hit the button to stop the scroll.

So that’s how the Netherlands colonized Indonesia.

SpruceBringsteen ,

Really weird that I’ve been skipping that exact video in my YouTube feed and then see this comment.

Which video?

I’m 6’4" (193 cm) and I felt totally average walking around Amsterdam. As opposed to being a mutant freak in Tokyo.

JoMiran ,
@JoMiran@lemmy.ml avatar

In the US, it also depends on the area. At 6’4" you might be normal in Salt Lake City but a freak in Tampa. My wife is 6’2". In most places she is by far the tallest woman (and often person) in the room.

When we lived in Park City (Utah) she didn’t seem as tall and often would not be the tallest woman there. It was fun to see.

nimpnin ,

6’2" is still 9 inches taller than the average woman in Utah. Is Park City some kind of extreme international anomaly?

JoMiran ,
@JoMiran@lemmy.ml avatar

I didn’t mean to imply that evey woman was 6’2"+ . Let me be more specific. In twenty years living in Louisiana, Texas, and Florida my wife never met a woman anywhere near her height with the exception of a set of basketball playing twins that lived in our condo building in Austin. We hit Park City and she sees women that are 6’0"+ pretty much daily. Not every woman, but also not unusual to see at least one. I do not know the reason for this.

EDIT: grammar

Num10ck ,

well to be fair the amount of people in Park City Utah that have Dutch ancestry is 1.219%

so on this chart its like half.

Viking_Hippie ,

TIL that Mormons are just normal Americans that grew too tall and were driven insane by the altitude.

“So why aren’t Dutch people all Mormon?”, you might ask. Simple: cannabis and women with full legal control to do or not do what they want with their bodies are excellent inoculations against Mormonism.

JoMiran ,
@JoMiran@lemmy.ml avatar

Can I join LDS so I can also be inoculated?

Viking_Hippie ,

I’m afraid you’ve gotten the order wrong. If you ask nicely by way of completing the necessary paperwork, you can visit the Netherlands for the inoculation, though!

Lynxtickler ,

This is already noticeable between Finland and England. According to the stats I’ve seen, the averages between the two are two inches apart. So, I’m average or just a tad shorter than the average man in the UK. In Finland I’m 5cm shorter than the average, and I kinda feel oddly tall every time I walk around in London because of that.

Viking_Hippie ,

I’m about a centimeter above the average for an adult male in Denmark and feel like a giant every time I visit the US 😄

Red_October ,

If it makes you feel any better, you’re a mutant freak no matter where you go, but some societies will be better at making you feel accepted.

FierySpectre ,

Only time I ever felt small was when I stepped off the train in The Netherlands. (2m)

That's a weird scale.

Apytele ,

Completely bizarre scaling choice.

DarkDarkHouse ,
@DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

You mean completely amazing scale choice

Rhaedas ,

Such techniques are often used to sell a conclusion with data that doesn't agree. Scaling, cropping, etc. Visuals are very powerful, and people will look at a graph and assume it's correct.

BreadOven ,

Agreed, it’s total bullshit. This sort of stuff should be outlawed.

rem26_art ,
@rem26_art@fedia.io avatar

one glance and you'd assume that the average Indonesian man only comes up to the calf of the average man from The Netherlands

ramble81 ,

I was trying to figure out what was bothering me about it. Basically 1’0” - 5’0” is 1 tick mark part foot and then it’s 1 tick mark per inch. So basically you have a 12:1 ratio for the first 60 inches so it’s not a linear, logarithmic, exponential or any normal type of scale.

takeda ,

Or simply, according to the scale from top of the head to calves is only one foot. Their head is only an inch tall.

danc4498 ,

Their feet starts at the 4 foot 8 inches mark.

T00l_shed , in I still crie evrytiem

I still use 5 ever regularly.

theangryseal ,

Been saying 5ever since I was about 5. That was 5ever ago and I thought I was a clever boy.

Bluetooth file transfer my beloved

db2 ,

That only works if the target is near. You may as well have said semaphore or signal fire.

potustheplant ,

It’s also pretty slow

Ghoelian ,

Also a lot of desktops don’t have bluetooth

amazing_stories ,

And even the Desktops with Bluetooth can often have in incompatible version for file transfers. Bluetooth is a mess.
