You could maybe just stuff the inside of the sharkfin full of tinfoil.

Schon, aber doch mit anderer Bedeutung. And we have more of those, like "schon", "gell", "fei" (in some dialects), "halt", "eben". Maybe a few more I cannot think of right now.

…

Just because all the other languages are inferior for the lack of a "doch" equivalent... ;)

If you cheat a little, you can get to similarly low numbers in German: "Zuviele Abschiede von ihr" - 8 "Ihre zuvielen Abschiede" - 8 "[Sie] verabschiedete sich zu oft" - 8-9 If you…

If you want to keep it very formal. Informally one would say something like "Trau dich, trinks!", or even shorter, "Komm, trinks!" or "Hopp, trinks!". Also depends on the exact int…

Not quite. Edges can break from excessive rolling and bending which is the usual mode if the steel isn't over-hardened (Excessively hardened steel will not roll over, only break, a…

I also sometimes do this (although not with tomatoes). But my knife for this is very sharp and hook-shaped (I think the english word is "turning knife"). Only thing you have to pay…

You cannot even backup all of the playstore apps, tons and tons set the magic "don't backup" bit. You are totally right in that there are basically no useful backups on android wha…

SafetyNet was always about DRM. The Play Store contains tons of malware despite SafetyNet, and malware does malware things despite SafetyNet. Also, SafetyNet makes alternatives to …

ssh-ing somewhere strange on a small laggy connection is standard operating procedure. Not having internet is normal. Not being able to write gigabytes of crap into root's home is …

"Better" is very one-dimensional, but cooking isn't. You can get worse at taste but better at health. Better at health and taste but worse at time consumption. Better at price but …

Disagreed. Practice is just one component in a cycle that makes us better: We watch something, think of something, read something. Then we try it out in practice. Then we observe o…

Even the American CDC disagrees: https://www.cdc.gov/foodsafety/communication/salmonella-and-... "*Pasteurized eggs have been heated to a high enough temperature for a long enough …

I'm a fan of the various Jacques Pépin videos on youtube because they give a lot of advice on technique. There is an hour long one I cannot find right now that basically has almost…

Thank you for your answer. Side note: I very much love pasteurized carton eggs. Pre-separated, no guessing the size ("my recipe wants 3 medium eggs, i only have large, do I use 2.5…

Wtf, dairy mayo? Is this an american thing? Mayonaise is oil, egg yolk and optionally mustard/garlic/spices/flavourings.

This is sensationalist nonsense, as evidenced by "just 100 warheads" without giving any yield or burst height. And if you read the Wikipedia article I've given you, the evidence po…

It is hard to assess, so this is just speculation, but I would guess that it is far easier to keep a facility in good working order, shining, nice and presentable when you don't ac…

If they are coming, it will take about 30mins. Far too quick for a headline to make the rounds. What you might notice (depending on if your country thinks it useful) will be siren …

No, it wouldn't. Nuclear winter from a small-scale exchange was a simulation result many decades ago, to be disproven only a few years later by more advanced simulations and observ…

Foreign inspectors might warn the Russians about the risk of theft, accidents and so on. But would they warn them if they noticed that the weapons were degraded or nonfunctional, u…

What do you mean? Yes, of course the ambulance might take the kid to the hospital. And then I'll follow the ambulance in my car to be there for my kid in the hospital. Or the kid h…

Life is poorly designed. Kid had an accident, gotta go to the hospital? Of course that call is urgent. Even at work, there are things that really are urgent. But those shouldn't oc…
