In the UK we have a chocolate bar called the Star Bar - it’s a LOT like a Boost - and it kinda has the same shape. I honestly thought it was a typo at first and I was like, “the fuck have Cadbury’s changed now?”.

It’s the only sentence I know and, honestly, it seems to work well in most situations.
I’ve been in cafés where the food is being crawled all over by bees or wasps. It’s usually a good sign because it means the food is full of ingredients they’re attracted to, and they keep flies away.

Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I've had this puzzle on my phone for years. Every few months I'd glance at it and try and solve it. Last night, as I was eating dinner, I finally figured out the answer!English

Each circle has something different inside it. You need to make sure the circle at the end of the arrow is different to the circle at the start of the arrow. This can be tricky because some circles have TWO arrows pointing at them, so it needs to be different to both things.
Interestingly this puzzle has multiple solutions. Here they are:
5, grape, Montreal, 97
Let me know if you find any others!
I remember my Grandfather telling me with utter seriousness and sincerity that by the year 2000 everyone would have a personal hovercraft and that we’d take holidays on the moon.
This was in 1996.

Just stare unblinking at a clock. When it suddenly jumps forwards several hours subtract the difference. Easy.

My nephew was getting worked up by constant ad interruptions in his iPad games (I know, I know) so I installed PiHole on their network to block ads. A week later my brother demanded I take it out becaus he wants ads back. I’m not joking - he actually clicks the sponsored links in search results, and it annoyed him that he couldn’t click on adverts in articles and on Facebook any more. Some people really are further gone than you might realise.












Rockstar are good at optimising their games. GTA V ran better than GTA IV on the same hardware. I wouldn’t be surprised if GTA VI runs well on the Steam Deck.
