How to become irresistible
  • A girl once asked my friend and I if she could make us an omelette. We'd never met her before, but said yeah why not. We went back to our flat, like 1AM, she made us an omelette and then left. Never saw her again. Bizarre. Good omelette though.

  • spontaneous synchronization
  • There's an article linked in the description which goes into it, although it stops short of a full explanation.

    In summary - starfish have many many feet, but no brain controlling them. The feet are all semi independent, and make their own decisions on where to go based on sensors on the feet themselves. So when a starfish starts moving, at first all the feet are sort of doing their own thing, but it's easier for them to move along with other feet around them, so they begin to synchronise spontaneously like in the video.

  • HTML with Excel
  • Ah, good ol' TEXTJOIN. I've used excel to write M before when I couldn't figure out a way to do something concisely but I also couldn't be bothered to write it out by hand. In hindsight, I was a shit programmer, but I'm at least good enough now that I can see how shit I was then!

  • There are too many of these people on lemmy
  • No one says fetch, really. Do they? Surely that's just a mean girls reference.

    Anyway - language evolves regardless of your preferences, unfortunately. Both "mid" and "based" have been around literally decades now, they are going nowhere.

  • Would be cool
  • Absolutely! Look at what happened to Mr I Want To Go See The Titanic Personally. That was with his own life on the line! Not to mention his teenage son! Please god don't trust the rest of our fucking lives to these maniacs.

  • Be still my beating tastebuds
  • Whoah, I remember all the catchy "not butter" related margarine names. I guess "I can't believe it's not butter" must have consumed them all before today in some act of greasy cannibalism.

  • Can we change how the answer is revealed?

    As is, once a post is solved it's revealed in the name, but this means you can't then try to guess already solved posts - only new ones. If we reveal the answer in a spoiler in the post body instead, the sub's historical posts will remain playable for new players to practice.

    Honey I shrank the ______!

    Bug: The comment button under each post is inconsistent.

    Tricky to explain exactly. Sometimes the comment button goes straight to adding a new comment rather than the post's comments. To reach the comments I have to press it again. But because it's not consistent sometimes I have to press it several times to reach the actual comments.
