Those 15~25kg bags from the garden centre are an order of magnitude more expensive than loose dirt from a transport or earthworks depot.

Your mum, apparently.

I used to love this game as a kid. Tried to return to it a few years later though and found it was one of those ‘game speed = cpu speed’ setups which was unplayably fast on my new 800mhz machine. I should track down an emulator for it…

I very much agree. Also, in a lot of places, that indicator on your license is not legally binding, the decision still comes down to your next of kin.

A system where everyone is a donor by default, but can opt out in a low-effort manner such as sending off a signed declaration, would still allow those with a genuine desire not to be donors the ability to do so, but would greatly increase the donor pool by capturing the majority of indifferent people who simply have not made the effort to opt in.

If you know exactly where you’re going, and the path is not itself in flame, and the residual heat+smoke have not yet rendered both your path and your patient’s current location unsurvivable, then it is possible.

The movie trope of covering your mouth with a rag and walking through rooms which are actively on fire, trying to find someone who has been inside that same room getting asphyxiated and/or cooked for several minutes is most definitely not real.

If the organisation does not respond to the issue for over 100 days, then advising users of how insecure the system is, and that the organisation refuses to fix it, seems like a fairly responsible thing to do.

No, it would be pronounced the same as bureau, but spelled differently.

Beuro works as a pun for English, French and German

There are dozens of us, dozens!

A quick Google shows that the maximum draught advertised on that canal is 1.32m, so that(plus whatever safety margin canals offer in their design) is presumably the minimum depth at any point of the canal. It would likely have areas which are somewhat deeper.

It also consists of a series of locks which increase elevation by approximately 2.5m each, so any one of those if full would be too deep to stand up in.

There are a lot fewer staff around than TV would have you believe. You would need basically 1-on-1 supervision until the drug wore off, which is very resource intensive compared to a one-time intervention.

I mean, is that not what they all did?

Put a thermometer in plain view and tape your phone number to the window as a backup in case someone is unable to see the thermometer, or your AC has malfunctioned and there is an actual issue.

If you took all of the posts on the internet at face value, and didnt understand what a meme was, you’d probably treat it as a fact that birds aren’t real, and pigeons are government surveillance drones.
