  • People who stick the apple logo on their car: Why?

    Jump

  • Stickers on cars are not really common in many countries.Besides the occasional "child on board" or local soccer club sticker, they are e.g. almost nonexistant here in Germany.But Apple stickers have been a thing that deviated from that rule, so it stood out, a few years ago.

  • Aaah... sure... yes. Totally. Never mind. Friends, yes!....(Personal reminder: never tell OP what our cat does to butterflies.)

  • Poor kitty either has learned her lesson already and knows that she has to look harder today, or is in for a very nasty surprise...

    Ladybugs main mode of defence is that they taste really awful. Predators will only try them once, then recognize and ignore them.

  • ... I always assumed season 3 to be the bad one.I personally actually liked the first two, Enterprise's start seasons are better than TNG's, imho.Am I the only one?

  • Aldi just launched its own £16.99 rival to Ring's battery video doorbell – and it's completely subscription-free | TechRadar

  • Are these even legal in Europe (the part that is not the UK...)?

  • You die and get reincarnated as alien species (keeping all your memories), and you found out that your species is planning to destroy Earth, what do you do?

    Jump

  • And perhaps you can convince them to at least let the earthlings hear some lyics before the destruction!

  • What is a thing you can fix with another thing that is not the intended thing, but it's actually better than the intended thing in some senses?

    Jump

  • Don't know if this fits with what you want to get at, but the main part of the rear mudguard for my mountainbike has now been the cut-up bottom of a 1.5l plastic bottle, fixed with zip-ties to the end of the bike, for many years.

    Not only is it superior in function to all the expensive commercial variants I used up to now (actually has a suitable shape and size to catch all the mud...), but it surprisingly also seems to be more durable. And also lighter.

    Optics are... special... though.But I really see that as a positive point: The more ugly a bike appears, the less likely it will get stolen.Besides, it is a nice talking point when meeting new people :-)

  • How much money would it take for you to eat hot soup while watching a spooky movie?

    Jump

  • Spooky or splatter?Huuuge difference!

  • AWS root beer

    Googled that and only found A&W root beer. Did you mean that? Is it good?

    chinotto

    Didn't know that either, but actually sounds good somehow. Also added to the Want-To-Taste-It-List. :-)

  • Survival of the fittest.

    Yes, 2/3 of the wooden cutting boards I put in became unusable after a few washes or so.

    But totally worth it finding that remaining 1/3 of tough ones that are now making life sooo much easier.

  • The beverage may also available in the UK, but maybe under an different name.

    From Wikipedia:

    sarsaparilla remains available in the United Kingdom as a legacy of the temperance movement.

    Jump

  • Thanks for the Sarsaparilla tip. As this is in some form also available in East Asia, I may have a chance finding it in an asia market, of which we have lots around here!

    Jump

  • Thanks for the tip, but I don't think I can be picky here.Honestly, I would be really surprised if they had root beer at all.It is really exotic niche stuff, outside of die-hard ST-fans generally not known...

  • And it could be replicated to be more nutritious, but taste the same!

    Jump

  • For a long time I thought it to be just a made up thing, like Saurian Brandy or so.But I would like to at least taste it once. Must ask at our local US store if it has some...

  • And it could be replicated to be more nutritious, but taste the same!

    Jump

  • Regardless how good it might be, it would quite certainly be a letdown for me now, as it apparently doesn't contain scotch...And if you are talking about Werther's: I am not particularly fond of that, there are superior types of caramel imho.

  • And it could be replicated to be more nutritious, but taste the same!

    Jump

  • Oh. I now just learned that butterscotch has nothing to do with whisky, but seems to be just the english word for "caramel" or so...And I also know the old "Werther's" commercials.So, they are apparently international.Interesting. I wonder what influenced what with regard to the butterscotch reputation stated in OP...

    Jump

  • Never heard of that before.But neither had l of root beer, before DS9 or so.So is it another one of those US-defaultism things still present in the 24th century?I find them slightly annoying in Trek, but try to ignore them.
