If you use 3 slices of ham in a regular sandwich, you will need 9 slices to create the scaled version of the pictured sandwich.

In comparison to an ordinary sandwich.

Ordinary sandwich: 2 bread 1 ham. Pictured trianglewich : 3 bread 3 ham.

I was in Rome last week and pleasantly surprised to see how many tiny cars they use.

There were plenty of Smart cars, but also many other ultra minis like Citroën AMI, XEV Yo-Yo and Renault Twizy.

They're not just concept cars or used as gimmicks like elsewhere. People actually use them for their daily business.

The traffic in Rome is insane though. The reason they use tiny cars isn't that the roads are small, but due to congestion and parking. It makes very little sense to own a car there at all.

The postal service in Denmark was opened in 1624.

It was privatized in 2009. It will shut down at the end of 2025.

Probably more than that.

There's 50% more bread, but 200% more ham.

From the designers webpage:

The bridge horizontal curvature is based not only on structural reasons, but also on improving the user experience - by walking on a curved bridge, a person can better perceive the destination.

There rest of the tactic is to be prepared for a yes.

Nothing worse than "oh, cool, so, uh...whatcha wanna do?"

That'll turn a yes into a no really fast.

Yes, I got an unexpected amount of emotional replies. The whole thread is very interesting that way.

It seems like lots of people are extremely complacent.

That's what refugees do. And they're allowed to. Persecution as it is happening in America right now is an international crime. If you're the victim of persecution you can get eefug status.

Of course that's the reason. I never claimed otherwise.

So we do agree that people with no money are capable of walking 4000 kilometers. Yet, it is somehow impossible for people in America to walk 500 kilometers, because "America is just too big" and "being financially trapped".

Sure, but what about them?

In most cases they're just lines on a map that don't actually exist physically in the real world.

 

How do I best view tabs from pages like ultimate guitar and others on a phone browser, so that the chords and lyrics match up? I know on pc they usually show up fine in notepad or with ASCII fixed sys font, but I can't quite figure out how to set it up for easy browsing on an android phone. I tried copying it to other apps but none of them have a fixed width font.

How do you do it?

 
 

Found at Brodega skateboards (Denmark)

I'm not affiliated, just found it funny.

A local skatepark held an official opening inviting Rune Glifberg and Nicky Guerrero to do a demo. The weather was tricky, but in between rain they managed to pull off a few tricks in the deep end. I didn't get a good photo of Rune.

(The 100kb limit on pictures is horrible.)

I am restoring an old chest and while removing a cover under the lid I found this label. As you can see, it's completely undecipherable except for "***halle & co." However there's another label underneath it. I wonder if I can separate them by putting it in water (like stamps off an envelope), but I'm afraid of destroying it if it has any value whatsoever.

The chest is made of wood and metal, but it's in a horrible state. Hinges and screws have been replaced prior to my owning, and the wood is damaged. I plan on restoring it, but would like to know it's history. Judging by materials and the label, I recon this is from 1900-1940s and American.

 

I'm trying to install Optifine on a Linux Mint Cinnamon laptop. Minecraft Java edition of course.

The game works and has been launched in version 1.20.1, but the Optifine installer keeps saying that I need run version 1.20.1 first.

Also, the installer is already pointing at the correct directory as default, but when I browse the location from the installer, I can't see or set the .minecraft directory manually.

What to do?
