The bedrooms were often in the centre, in windowless rooms.

In Roman insulae, they often slept in windowless rooms. Many of them also woke before sunrise. They were generally woken by slaves, roosters and the increasing noise from people outside.

In British supermarkets, they often don’t even put the beans on shelves. Instead they have stacked palettes of them, because they need to restock so often it’d be inefficient to have to unpack and shelve them.

Are you American though? Here in the UK, nobody really owns a plunger and they don’t need to, the plumbing is different, it doesn’t clog. Do need to own a toilet brush though, to wipe off the skidmarks, which is more rare in the US.

Those names were chosen because they stereotypically fit these people, like Karen does a Karen. But popular names and connotations change over time. I feel like Stacy is a name befitting of an older person now than originally intended for the memes. I wonder if we’re going to collectively keep these names locked in time, or rename them ever

No chance I’m getting a username this simple on most platforms

I’m having fun ☹️

These Øs make it read like the subtitles to the intro for Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Making grey 0, black the highest and intense red the lowest above 0 is a weird palette choice

Not a car, but I’ve got a bicycle light that does this. Turns on when it’s dark and also when you brake. So definitely possible

Haha, most people here do tech it seems. Well, me too.

People seem to think I’d be good at maths and my entire job is like maths. I’m not and I don’t view it that way. There’s a lot of problem solving and engineering, but I find it very creative and expressive

I always see comments like these online, but they seem kind of absurd to me, coming from a country where it’s not only totally common to walk dogs off-leash, but completely legal. There’s really very few incidents of dogs darting into the streets here, and actually half the ones I’ve ever seen have been dogs on a lead anyway. A well trained dog doesn’t do that.

The whole document is a pretty funny read actually

Given:

• List of roll-on/roll-off vessel accidents
• Amphibious vehicles exist
• Cars have crashed into the sea

I would say you cannot exclude the ocean like that.

That’s a bit misleading to say like that. Go to the website, scroll to the footer and click on “Legal”. Your instance, feddit.de, has a legal notice, with a privacy contact person, mentioning you can request data erasure, and detailing where your data goes. Mine, lemmy.world, has a number of in depth legal documents attached there.

However, yes, other instances they are federated with might not take it as seriously though, and if all your data is going there too, then that’s a hole in your data privacy.

== is a heathen with no rightful place except equality to null. All praise ===

Fuck would that question come up on a trivia night. No chance. That’s a specialist subject

That’s just the bar for gesture navigation, instead of those three buttons at the bottom. It’s available in settings of Android 10 and above

Not sure if there’s a scheme in place here in Scotland or UK, but I always get asked if I want a receipt or not for several years now. Receipts and plastic bags are only by request. The main exceptions seem to be restaurants and public transport.

However, my local supermarket has installed receipt scanning barriers at the self checkout - so those used to have optional receipts, but no longer. I guess profits before environment.
