My fault. I saw a news story that the Nuremberg airport was closed, searched it in Lemmy so I didn’t repost, and saw this without looking at the date. Interesting that it was closed today and about a year ago.

Invest in CD players.

Funniest thing by a dam site.

Every single lighthouse, virtually.

I guess that’s why it’s “virtually” every lighthouse.

You’d almost think someone was getting scammed.

Nothing under mine. There’s a place where I can input that kind of information, but everything is empty. Maybe this is unique to US America?

Is it possible there are less businesses doing it because many companies have already done it? I know a lot of people aren’t in favour of self-checkouts, but decisions go to where the money and convenience are. We don’t go to tellers or the few gas stations that serve because of convenience. We troubleshot our computers and do our own renovations because hiring workers would be too expensive. If you don’t like self-checkouts, don’t use them. It’s as easy as that.

We had our own version of Oh Canada. Oh Cannabis, our home and native plant…

What country is this? They seem to becoming more prevalent here. (Canada) My observation is that people generally look at the cashier lines. If there’s too long a wait, they head for the self-checkout. Or, if they only have a few items, they head to the self-checkout.

It’s a great song. First video track to win a Grammy.

Yeah, I like his donating breweries to temperance ministers. lol

The theme song for the game Civilization IV is The Lord’s Prayer is Swahili.

Canadians claim the telephone too even though Alexander Graham Bell was British when he invented it in Canada.

I read that wrong. I thought they were culling people.

From what I understand, a unit shouldn’t be capitalized unless it’s named after someone. The problem with litre is that a lowercase l looks like a 1 which can really mess up a measurement. People started using uppercase, but some purists bucked the trend. That’s when Claude Emile was made up. Because some journals thought it was true, more people got convinced to use the uppercase L for Litre.

pd and oc would make more sense in an English-speaking country. Here again, the metric system is easier to understand. (We won’t talk about Claude Emile Jean-Baptiste Litre.)

Don’t get me started on short forms. Lbs and oz?

Except the drug dealers. They use metric.
