  • What is your funniest case of misheard song lyrics?

    Jump

  • When listening to a Michael Patrick Kelly song outside of a running car for the first time, it turned out it wasn't a nerdy song about "Beautiful maths", but just another boring love song called "Beautiful madness":-)

  • There is a famous one here in Germany that everyone gets wrong.The original line being sung: "Es tobt der Hass da vor meinem Fenster", meaning "Hatred is raging in front of my window".What everyone hears: "Es tobt der Hamster vor meinem Fenster", meaning "The hamster is raging in front of my window".

  • Motorola confirms GrapheneOS support for a future phone, bringing over features

    Jump

  • Dream on...Motorola has continuously been moving headphone jack down to ever lower spec devices.Has been the reason I bought a used G84 half a year ago, as this has been the last Motorola with at least somewhat decent specs to support those. (On top of it, it runs LineageOS really well!).But the GrapheneOS phone will be a high-end-device, so you can probably forget about it...

  • I finally found the taste of Starfleet Academy! Now which related episode should we watch while trying it? [Update]

    Jump

  • But the Sarsaparilla base aroma is the same for all, I assume?

    That was the most interesting part for us, as it is basically unknown here and we had no idea what it tastes like.

    Guess kinda like all the woodruff flavored stuff not known outside of Germany - there are differences between individual dishes, but the interesting part for foreigners would be the exotic base taste itself...

  • Both Orangina and Schweppes have a more or less pronounced bitter aftertaste, though (which is actually part of the reason they are so great!).So they might well agree with Cardassian taste expectations ;-)

  • High fructose corn syrup is thankfully not a thing here in Europe.So no domestic German soft drinks use it and also almost all of the American soft drinks I have seen so far contain normal sugar (probably not made from sugar canes, though, but doesn't really matter), the root beer in the picture included! :-)We will try it during our relaxed evening TV session, so I will be able to tell more in about two hours or so...!

    Pun intended? :-)

  • We will cautiously take some small sips of the base brew contained in the ice cooled specimen in the picture first, before considering moving on to the more advanced concepts... ;-)

    Jump

  • Given that the can in the pic is the first root beer I have seen in my whole life (and that despite actively searching for it), the chances of finding some specific speciality brand are probably pretty slim, I guess... :-)

  • Thanks for the suggestion!That actually seems like it would the perfect episode to watch while drinking rootbeer!(Found a nice blog post about the scene here: https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/star-trek-most-hilarious-scene.html )

    But, although I remember the two-parter to be completely great, given that my children haven't seen a single DS9 episode yet, it seems like a bit context-heavy (and also quite dark as a first introduction to DS9).So I decided to go with the silly "Little Green Man" episode instead, which mentions root beer at one occasion and starts with Nog going off to Starfleet Academy.

  • As a Bavarian, I have to say I am slightly flabbergasted to learn of the existence of Bavarian nutmeg root beer... 😆

  • Feeling the need to state "they are closer to Antifa than anything else" about your opponents might be a good point to rethink your ethics...

  • Do you think intergalactic travel will ever be possible?

    Jump

  • I wondered why I didn't remember a mini series to exist - then saw its Rotten Tomato rating...

    So perhaps better watch the film instead.It has a few 60s movie moments, but overall was really fun to watch, with most of the science being surprisingly solid, given its age.

  • You are confusing that with Galactica from Andromeda out of the "Hello Spencer" TV series.

    The "Andromeda Strain" was about human hubris and the reasons we are probably not going to become intergalactic travellers...

  • Do you think intergalactic travel will ever be possible?

    Jump

  • Totally.

    The Milky Way is on a collision course with Andromeda, so we are already on our way!

  • Well, actually, we celebrate the guy becoming zombie three days after nailing him to wood.Also, the guy is often called "the lamb".So we naturally eat roasted lamb as a traditional celebration, while the bunnies hide colored eggs for us to search.
