Because they are students? Both are high demand professions, I don’t get it.

I too want to open a business where both customers and suppliers pay me. Do you know any more gullible sectors? Academics are pretty extorted already it seems.

No non-metric area in that picture, the core of my joke still stands :P

It’s a japanese bird, that should be Pascal.

How dare you not growing up like a boomer and not getting accustomed to linear television as your only source of joy, therapy and emotion avoidance? /s

Or worse if he does, how do you prove to all the anti-money-laundering watchdogs you got free money from a genie? Will you be able to gain control over your instantly conviscated money in 30 days?

Thank you. I must have been late to the badger party in 2006 ¯_(ツ)_/¯

We shared the albinoblacksheep link on msn. Youtube existed, it was part of the rise of shockwave flash technology websites.

How to loose 20kg in only 1 day!

I’m in favour of moving.

Primitive ftpd from fdroid is my go-to “too lazy to configure a cloud thing” solution. It is fast and just works.

🚨 Viral meme detected

Yeah, basically habit of using two digits precision whenever the meter is too big. Conveniently, the first two digits are centimeters. This comic is weird because our dude is using centimeters above 100 and adds millimeters and 10th milimeters to his length, must have been bald shaved at a precision doctor to get these numbers.

I can hear its warcry in every panel. Convincing arguments. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cBkWhkAZ9ds

According to some guy, I forgot who, when a writer uses third degree anonymous hearsay in his story for a series, the truthfulness and memeworthiness triples, the narrative and drama make up for lack of substance. “I think it is all made up bullshit for entertainment, but the ragebait makes me post this”.

Die Gemeinschaft ist tot, aber dafür läuft der Bediener spitze! Wenn wir Banausen wären, könnten wir ich_iea (im echten Ausland) gründen für Urlaubs- und Exil Maimais und den lokalen Kanal aus versehen übernemen.

Ich glaub das sind einfach Sprachmuster, die man schwer umlenken kann, und die aus Gefühl schief gehen können beim Sprechen. Besonders wenn sie fremdartig sind: Warum setzen wir Teewasser AUF? Wie einen Hut?! Warum sitzen Niederländer hinterm Fernseher und wir davor? Im Zweifel gewinnt beim Sprechen die Prägung der Muttersprache in solchen Fragen, würd ich aus persönlicher Erfahrung sagen. Unsere persönliche Autokorrektur, die je nach Müdigkeit underschiedlich eingreift. Dein Beispiel klingt auch bekannt, in der Arabischen Welt scheinen “schließen” und “ausmachen” keine(oder anders) getrennten Wörter zu sein. Entwickel da mal Gefühl für ;)

I like my cups where they don’t collect dust though.

Kelvin is for scientists.

Celsius is for people.

Fahrenheit is a translation layer between Celsius and Americans. All their weather stations have been Celsius for ages, it’s a societal decision to use an arbitrary unit instead. The “69F censoring” which turned out to be a rounding artefact illustrated that nicely. Their government could change that, power to them that they decide not to 🤷‍♂️
