Yeah - really confusing. I worked it out as (c.) 6 inches and then further confused myself as to why I was thinking inches from metres. Wild. Luckily I’ve lived with both metric and imperial and am apparently bilingual.

Smoking (anything) close to non-smokers is a person problem. Like folk who play their music audibly on transport. It’s selfish and anti social.
3/20th of a metre is a wild measurement to read.
An actual, real, self-confessed, Hitler-loving Nazi? Yes. I’d punch them until my arm fell off and then I’d borrow my friend’s arm to punch them some more…
Catholic Church enters the chat.
I think this dude is the guy I remember from Mastodon - I didn’t spend much time there. Pens some real bangers if so.
Couple of teeth, bit of an ear, part of a finger plus a couple of dents on my flesh. Something very big went “boom” near me. I’m also a bit deaf in one ear. I am incredibly lucky to have survived, let alone walk out. All of it will be patched up apart from the finger - even my hearing might come back. You might not notice if you pass me on the street but if you sat opposite me you probably would. It’s no big thing.
That I’m missing a couple of body parts… nothing that big, major or important though so it doesn’t really hinder me.
In European history this happened on the ninth of November.
Ah, memories. Vagene. Pregante. Noice. Written English has had a hammering on the internet. We’ll all be spelling like Chaucer in another generation at this rate.
In the UK they have two categories. One is Best Before and the other is Use By. A product will have one or the other but not both. One is a recommendation and the other is a command. And out of date cracker is different to out of date raw chicken. (eggs have a Display Until and a Use By date on the same pack).
I believe what you say about networks using each other’s towers is incorrect for a large portion of the world. Where do you live?
That’s a really good point I’d never thought of. Veganising an obligate carnivore is unvegan. Mind blown 🤯
Do you know where I can buy a 2 mile extension cable to get to my nearest plug socket this morning?
In English English decisions can be taken as well as made… although it’s possibly more common to use “make” in the present tense and “took” in the past tense. i.e. “They took the decision to make no more decisions until tomorrow.”
I used rhythmbox on a system running Mint to move music to and from an iPod nano 2. It was fairly straight forward. Save the transfers before closing the programme and you’re good to go.
I was expecting more answers along these lines. Slightly disappointed with the tangent that people’s answers have taken.
That’s the spirit.
