  • Don’t wanna argue with the premises here. But isn’t Christianity also a bit stupid for praying towards the instrument that’s been used to torture and kill their leader.

    Just imagine you are Jesus and come into a modern church. You’d run away screaming with all those crosses triggering your PTSD. And that’s before you’ve even heard of all the atrocities they’re doing there in your name.







  • There are a lot of foods that taste better and better with every time you reheat them. Especially a lot of stews: Grünkohl, Bigos, Lasagna, Chilli con Carne, Pörkölt, all kinds of Curry etc.

    Problem with reheating McDonald’s is, that it’s shit food to begin with. To get a decent menu out of McD leftovers you put them in the oven for 7 minutes, but make sure to replace them with a pizza 6 minutes before they’re done.




  • I was in Faliraki a few years ago and it was really nice. I was there in late October though, so there were only like 20 other tourists in town and all the penny arcades and tourist shops were already closed.

    I’ll never understand why people fly to the south in the middle of the summer, when the weather is nice here anyway.








  • Long distance calls are sometimes routed over geostationary satellites. These signals travel for 2x40,000km which leads to a very noticeable delay of ¼ of a second, the answer will reach you ½ a second later than usualy, which feels very odd.
    At least that was the case in the 1990s, when I used the POTS to call long distance. Nowadays I’d assume most of that is routed over the Internet, which uses undersea cables and thus is usually much faster than that.
