Well technically a hollow sphere would be best… Works best in space though

Litron3000 , 2 months ago to nostupidquestions in Why do Americans measure everything in cups?

Oil and water are fine, but flour already starts to be a problem. How densely is it packed?
Then we go on to salt, which can have a lot of different grain sizes (although that is annoying with a scale as well because most kitchen scales are not very accurate with single-digit-grams)
Then it gets really weird when they say to use a cup of grated cheese, because depending on how you grate it it has very different densities

Also it’s a huge difference if you get universal income for life or just for a limited time and have to provide for yourself again after that

Oof :D

Litron3000 , 3 months ago to askscience in Where does pollution go when it rains?

The rain that is falling today doesn’t end up in drinking water for a good while, depending on where you are. In the meantime it gets filtered by the soil it flows through.
On top of that not everything that’s unhealthy to breathe is unhealthy to eat/drink. Think about coal dust for example, very bad for your lungs but also a common medicine against diarrhea when compressed into a pill.
Just to give some perspective and lift you up a bit ;)

Well I live in germany and therefore use the train network on short and long distance frequently and while it is unreliable, “a day” of delay is something I have never experienced.
Most of the delayed trains are late by less than one hour (still atrocious, but not a day’s worth by any means).
I actually experienced only once a situation where we were given the choice of a hotel or a continuation of our travels by taxi (which we chose) because the train we were in was late one hour or something and the other (last for the day) train could not wait.

I think the best for the artist is buying physical copies from their own homepage. Probably followed by Bandcamp

It’s still a fixed ratio though?

I think ebl supermarket has it, but yeah it’s a little hard to come by sadly

The really fancy stuff (in Germany, don’t know if it exists somewhere else) is Samba. Nutella is just sweet slime in comparison

Revanced works flawlessly on android and gives you the native app feeling

Litron3000 , 8 months ago to memes in it's a secret mom's campaign to stop drinking out of the bottle....

Well that escalated quickly

I can understand that being more difficult for anyone with disabilities. The point though was if it makes an impact for the environment and I’d still say it does, because to recycle you have to get the material back first and it being attached makes that more likely

Don’t know where the corpo bootlicker stuff is coming from, no company is benefitting off this?

Anyway I hope the rest of your day is going better than it did until now

Litron3000 , 8 months ago to memes in it's a secret mom's campaign to stop drinking out of the bottle....

At this point you are just incompetent at pouring in a drink

It’s a very easy change to make, yes the impact is small but why not take the easy stuff first? It’s not like the EU isn’t doing hard stuff as well (right to repair laws or gdpr anyone?)

Litron3000 , 9 months ago to memes in EVs

Yes, but turning electricity into hydrogen doesn’t have 100% efficiency, during transport, storage and filling the car with hydrogen you lose some of it and only then you get to the fuel cell, which isn’t very efficient in itself. And then you lose a bit more (although very little) in the electric motor. All this amounts to the 22% of the guy above (didn’t check the number btw, but it sounds plausible)
