The fumes are from the flux, if you're evaporating lead your iron is a few thousand degrees too high.

Still shouldn't breathe that, but that's also true for lead-free solder

"Europe's most important rocket test" is quite an overstatement for a student project.

Ah yeah, that's a good point

A tendency to roll for a long time would be true for any many-sided die, no? I can't imagine the 120 stopping quickly either.

AM doesn't reach further than FM, it's just that historically we've been using AM at lower frequencies, and these travel further. You could transmit with FM just as well on these frequencies, and get the same range.

These radio telescopes don't transmit anything at all, they listen to radio waves coming from the cosmos. Much like a normal telescope doesn't transmit light.

Is this true? Is this unique to the Dutch flag, or do most tricolor flags not really specify this?

Yeah, but that's hundreds of years ago and they're a staple food now. Unlike Jicamas, where I had to Google what that even is.

So, linguistically not really comparable

But these aren't found in Western Europe

Leaving aside the problem that you are choosing a date system depending on who is using the dating system

I'm choosing one for humans, that'd seem to be the group that uses date systems most. Picking a new datesystem for each purpose would be insane, but also exactly what's happening in computer systems.

under that condition the most logical would be MM/DD/YYYY, which is truly terrible, so I'm going to politely ignore your argument.

I fail to see that conclusion? Why would that be the most logical?

Was it ever intended or fit for that? It's 2.5 years old, where modern games 2.5 years ago that much less demanding than modern games today?

Are computers the most important thing?

Usually when I read a date I hardly care about year, because most events I read about are within a year

Care to elaborate? In my part of the world it absolutely is, with only some confusion sometimes caused by American dates

I know you can get it at Albert Heijn

Edit: I just learned that Aldi chocolate is sourced through Tony's supply lines, so they should be the same level of slave-free

It isn't American, and it doesn't taste like shit.

The founder, Teun van der Keuken, is a Dutch guy. He started this journey with sueing himself before a Dutch judge, on account of participating in slave labour (by buying chocolate in a supermarket, knowing that it's likely produced by slave labour)

Would people just lie on the internet?

Only if it's about a mother though.

As a christian, that's how I like to read it too.

It's not even technically correct, you'd have to talk about female humans to be technically correct.

The same worries exist here too though. The blood bank isn't allowed to pay you for your plasma, but it's absolutely a for-profit organisation that runs on selling your plasma to pharmaceutical companies.

I still believe it's a good thing to donate, but sometimes it feels a little icky that there's also a businessmodel around it

Very good movie too
