Fantastic, this was exactly what I needed to get into my most ambitious project that starts tomorrow, thanks!

Obito Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•This is a lovely gesture, but also it's pretty sad (and very North American?) that if your car dies at the store you can't get home without relying on the tenuous kindness of strangersEnglish4·3 days agoDefinitely yes for tractors, you should see John Deere’s business practices and walled garden of maintenance and repairability! Peak capitalism right there.
Obito Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What seemingly backwards solutions have worked for you in life?8·5 days agoI grew up in Asia and had a chipped playstation 1 as a kid. It allowed it to read copies, was pretty standard stuff over there the copies could be found in legit stores and everything.
Anyway it started struggling to read the CDs. We figured out if we turned it upside down, it would be able to read them no problem. I suspect it was gravity making the lens come a bit closer to the CDs but don’t know for sure.
It was certainly funny having it upside down, worked a charm.
I want to hang a picture of it in my house so when guests compliment me on it I can say “Oh you like it? Me too. It’s a picture of Uranus”
Obito Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you support the Fediverse financially? If so how do you distribute contributions between Client/Instance/Platform?8·5 days agoI donate monthly to my instance.
Obito Europe@feddit.org•Nine in 10 French supermarkets still selling alcohol to underage customersEnglish2·5 days agoDid it change? I think it was 14 or 15 when I was that age.
That bar definitely cost them more than if it had the wafer in. The chocolate has to be the most expensive part.
Obito Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Peanut butter with strawberry jelly is better than peanut butter with grape jellyEnglish3·5 days agoYes, I’m a European who’s been enlightened about PB&J by my Canadian partner but I too much prefer it with Raspberry jam. Or what we call “fruits of the forest”, also red fruits.
I tried it with an apricot/passion fruit one the other day and it was surprisingly nice. We don’t really have grape jam here afaik.
Our PB is also a bit different though, it’s literally just crushed peanuts (100% ingredient).
Obito Nieuws@lemy.nl•Air France-KLM wil meerderheidsbelang in Scandinavische concurrent SASNederlands2·6 days agoThis isn’t good news, I fly KLM/AF myself if I can when I need to fly and have no complaints about them, but I don’t want them to become “EU airlines” with no competition…
Lmao what an accurate description.
Obito Everyday Carry. What essentials do you carry on a daily basis?•Bracelet: 10 Yards of Kevlar CordEnglish1·6 days agoOk, so pull to easily unravel, that’s cool, but what about when you’re done then it’s surely a doozy to put it back in bracelet form, no?
Obito World News@lemmy.world•France charges 18-year-old for planning attacks in first 'Incel' terrorism caseEnglish1·6 days agoIt’s basically the translation to teenager, so up to 20, over 20 they could still be called “grand ado” (big teen) if they’re still not really mature.
Obito Electric Vehicles@slrpnk.net•Aito's next EV to introduce sodium-ion battery with sub-10 min charging time3·6 days agoAlso the Fords we get in Europe are completely different from the ones in the US, the two branches are almost completely separate. Different models, not produced in the same place, etc etc.
Never had that but doesn’t seem sketchy sanitary-wise, we can eat our eggs raw here without risk, the salmon would of course need to be sushi-grade. I do question the combination of flavours though, I love egg yolk and I love raw salmon, but together I’m not sure, I’d have to try it…
Obito Biscuits@feddit.uk•Biscuit Museum forced to pull Jaffa Cake exhibit after backlash from McVitie’sEnglish3·6 days agoIt’s honestly probably because the word is trending in general at the moment. I don’t actually know if predictive text uses live update like this but wouldn’t be surprised.
Obito Health - Resources and discussion for everything health-related@lemmy.world•Every Dutch person has ‘forever chemicals’ in their bloodEnglish6·6 days agoIt’s just super polluted in general around here, we just don’t notice because everything is sparkling clean.
I think they were exaggerating for comedic effect. I hope…
