It’s wasps all the way down…
I can 100% guarantee this is the UK comic magazine Viz.
It often has ridiculous made-up articles like this.
gasgiant@lemmy.mltoData is Beautiful@lemmy.world•Here are the countries holding the most U.S. debtEnglish5·4 months agoMore and more I’m realising this is all just a massive house of cards.
We (the UK) hold a load of US debt and the US holds a load of our debt.
So the net value is zero.
It’s like me lending my mate £20 and him lending me £20 and we claim we’re each worth £40. It’s so bonkers when I word it like that but that’s how it seems to be.
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto News@lemmy.world•China calls US a ‘joke’ as it raises tariff for final time251·4 months agoCOVID knocked all global trade in that period.
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What was the 'bear vs man' controversy?161·5 months agoThe major issue I had with this is that it plays into the alpha male misogynistic ideal of strength.
Some of them will almost certainly see it as a badge of honour. That they are so dominant that some stupid women (their opinion) will misinterpret that and get into trouble with a bear.
I was trying to come up with a way to rephrase it.
Something like would you rather be alone with a man or separate but you both have to eat a bowl of dog shit.
If women choose the bowl there are nasty consequences for both and it’s clearer they would rather deal with that than the man.
Nowhere near as catchy though…
Snapping sounds like a real faff.
Keep them all in a special plastic box that is inside a powerful electromagnet.
Push button and a field that is strong enough to damage the cards almost instantly and over a short time would generate enough heat to physically damage the cards.
With enough power and time you could turn them into one hot blob that wouldn’t even be recognisable.
So near instant data damage and then physical destruction probably before someone can work out what’s going on.
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I finished a tube of chapstick before losing it.6·6 months agoI thought this place was supposed to be dull.
The rare exciting news of a finished Chapstick (rather than lost, wrecked in the washing machine, etc …) is certainly not dull!
I’m going to go and reorganise my screw boxes to calm down a bit.
Can confirm.
Playing through again now. Was faithful last time so this time bring it on!
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Europe@feddit.org•Donald Trump tells UK to 'get rid of windmills' and says raising windfall tax on North Sea oil is 'big mistake'English2·7 months agoWhat the fuck is this bullshit.
How can anyone say private oil companies are good when the likes of Saudi or Norway have massive wealth funds and great infrastructure from them?
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Don't know where to ask so I'll just ask here, so is there a possibility these be legit on Ebay?2·7 months agoDid I imagine a scam with hacked bios as well?
Where the card looks a bit physically similar and the bios is updated to report it as whatever dynamite card but it’s actually a pos and the performance is always rubbish.
This is the answer. You can also screw a block to the top and use that to keep the multi tool blade straight. Gives a couple of holes to sort on the top but a much less work straightening up the edge.
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•UK government hires ‘nudge unit’ to help dispel heat pump myths | Behaviour experts say misinformation shared in media and by other stakeholders is impeding uptake5·7 months agoMy opinion is that it isn’t. If it can remove heat then it will cool the same as air AC.
However it comes with the problem of condensation everywhere. So those room radiators that give off heat in the winter will be dripping with condensation in the summer. As will all the system pipework that isn’t fully insulated and protected.
So that’s probably a lot of water running different places in the home.
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•UK government hires ‘nudge unit’ to help dispel heat pump myths | Behaviour experts say misinformation shared in media and by other stakeholders is impeding uptake8·7 months agoYou’re a bit confused about buffer tanks. They are thermal stores and just store primary heating circuit water.
The water from the buffer tank isn’t the hot water from the tap. The water in the buffer tank will be used to indirectly heat mains water. Either through a plate heat exchanger or an unvented cylinder.
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Global News@lemmy.zip•Tintin, Popeye, Hemingway among US copyrights expiring in 20259·7 months agoWhat I don’t understand about this is why it matters if it’s just the USA.
Tintin is Belgian. So almost certainly published there first and covered under their copyright law. I’ve no idea what that is but just because it expires in the USA can’t mean it’s just an intentional free-for-all.
Wouldn’t the work still be covered in Belgium and any reuse anywhere would leave people liable to legal action there?
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Running@lemmy.world•My treadmill is suddenly feeling weird [SOLVED]1·7 months agodeleted by creator
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Running@lemmy.world•My treadmill is suddenly feeling weird [SOLVED]3·7 months agoCan’t get my head around the greasing. Even though the manual tells you to do this I can’t see how that grease wouldn’t get transferred to the inside of the belt and then onto the rollers. This would then cause the belt to slip on the rollers giving what you describe.
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Enough Musk Spam@lemmy.world•'Unelected President Musk': Elon posts 70 times trashing GOP bill, Trump caves5·8 months agoAgain I remember rumours about that then as well. It seems as though this is an advanced version of that, crystallising into one person.
gasgiant@lemmy.mlto Enough Musk Spam@lemmy.world•'Unelected President Musk': Elon posts 70 times trashing GOP bill, Trump caves24·8 months agoAs I saw this I had a thought. It’s long been touted that Trump doesn’t really have any money he’s just massively in debt and lives by borrowing against his assets. Not sure if this is true or not.
However if it is, what if Musk just bought up all that debt. So all the money Trump owes he owes to Musk.
Effectively then he owns the president.
The TL;DR needs a bit of expansion.
“Filmed” also means they thought about the IMAX process and aspect ratio all the way through production
“Shot” is correct but the film is then converted to the digital format for projection. I’m not sure there’s too many places doing IMAX film (non digital) projection now.
