I will always upvote this, it’s up there with the cotton picking school trip as one of the funniest vids on the internet.

As an IT support person, the problem I have with these mice is that the left mouse button is also on the vertical. So when heavy-handed users click on a file in explorer, they also slightly drag down, so the file “disappears” into a folder, and now it’s a support ticket to get the file restored.

Sigh.

Wait wait wait. Your butter has flavouring added? Like, I realise I’m spoiled here in Ireland, but fuck mei can’t even picture what that might be

Sexual twice, then never again.

I once thought I had snuck a small one out at the supermarket. I realised it was evil and slid away. A family came up the stairs from the car park right into it. Amid wailing and bashing of teeth from the teenagers, I heard the dad say, “that’s a stink bomb, you can tell by the smell.”

One of the proudest moments of my life.

Now, in all fairness, when did that ever stop the bastards

It’s actually a way to generate unlimited energy. That man is spinning in his grave at 6,000 rpm. Do one for Bill Hicks and Sean Locke and we have solved the energy crisis folks.

Company I used to work for got hit fairly bad. Am email came in from the contract agency to the accounts payable clerk, personally addressed to her and signed off all informal like, to the effect of “hey Marion, our local bank branch is closing so we’ve had to move our accounts, can you update the IBAN to the following for me?”

€150,000 down a black hole, that wasn’t even noticed until a phone call came in a week later.

You’re one of today’s 10000!

Why does it look exactly like PUBG?

Now this is shitposting!

For me, the lack of a definition of a durable relationship was the killer. How do you know if you’re in one? What if one person thinks they are and the other doesn’t? Do you have to break up every six months or so to avoid creating one?

And definitely the care referendum was just stupid. The state will “strive” to provide care? My dude I’m striving to levitate right now, but mysteriously fuck all seems to be happening in real life.

Ah The Union Of Craic. Our National Day celebrations would be legendary.

There’s meant to be a fada over the a (á), so it’s definitely meant to be a longer vowel sound.

Take the name Sean for example. Spelled like that it’s actually pronounced shan, and means old. The name that we all pronounce as Shawn is actually spelled Seán

Ublock Origin, I Still Don’t Care About Cookies, and SponsorBlock make the web far more pleasant on my desktop than on my phone.

And the French Fries

Short staffed, but that doesn’t stop the boss taking time off to go to a funeral…

I think the cost/benefit ratio is the main issue. Splitting oils to remove the saturated fat is not a simple process, especially when the easier answer is “use an oil naturally lower in saturated fats” like rapeseed (canola).

I found out recently that the land that her ranch sits on is at least adjacent to, if not directly involved in the events shown in Killers of the Flower Moon.

I think you meant, ear ear, wots all this about then.

Well this is Lemmy, so i know this will probably get at least 60% of you:

Its been a long road…

Ok, I haven’t thought about The Dead Milkmen in 25 years it so, but this immediately reminded me of Sarah Jane

I’m sorry but this OSS wrong on so many levels.

This aircraft is 9 years old. It is a B737-800. Boeing’s responsibility ended when it was delivered. Southwest are responsible for all maintenance and inspection since then.

There is only one manufacturer of engines for the 737NG type, CFM. The engine itself may go back to them for maintenance as they do run overhaul shops. But they are extremely reliable engines. And this engine didn’t fail, the panels came off.

This is not an engine failure. This is more likely some poor young fella forgot to clip the cowlings shut after preflight checks.

Absolutely, I have no problem with the intent of the proposal, just the wording was lazy and too open to abuse.

The care one however was awful. That would need a total rework before I’d consider a yes.

This was in Ireland, and she was in the local newspaper after winning a tree-tossing competition…

Is this list available as an rss feed?

PAUNG! PAUNG! PAUNG!

Does this guy shout “IT’S WESSEL-BERG!!” every time someone calls him weasel-berg?

Eh I think they’re two different markets. If you prioritize health over taste, go for the cheaper, natural rapeseed. If you’re prioritising taste over health, most people are not going to be bothered by the sat fat, and would prefer an unadulterated flavour.

I believe you have to distil the oil, so it’s definitely going to be heated. You can be sure that the processing required to remove the sat fat is going to change the flavour and texture, while also somehow making it worse for you than either.

I was on hols in France and this song kept coming on the radio: Vianney - Je Te Deteste

Might I suggest while Krispy Kreme sugar-glazed ring doughnuts?

There’s a lot of the latter on mast-odon

I shall name them George and Kuato.

Too quick, pipedlinkbot. I edited the link to fix it.
