  • Indeed, although this type of thing was more common with older wifi generations, so I'm not surprised kids these days wont know.

    For example: We cut the top off an old beer can, poked a hole and stuck it onto the antenna to have stable download speeds across a courtyard.

  • Yeah it's not the best, but it can be pretty effective since it evaporates at hive temperatures and disperses.

    The point is that the commercial miticides are far from the only option that works, and that they've known about the issue for decades.

    • Double clicking with the mouse on a word usually selects the whole word with the space after, very nice for copy-pasting.
    • Double clicking on the selected word will sometimes select the whole line(In some applications it actually selects up to the newline marker, so it will grab multiple lines if resized smaller).
  • My favorite part is how people in the public eye who present end-of-days predictions always have some weird excuse after the fact. As was beautifully parodied in Parks and Rec.

    In this case there have been impersonators, and the original author has no connection to a lot of the newer stuff. She is not trying to cash in or play things up, which is a wonderful contrast to a lot of people who claim to be doomsday predictors.

  • A 1999 comic book by manga artist Ryo Tatsuki has been fuelling these rumours. In a new edition released in 2021, she claimed the next big earthquake would strike on 5 July this year.

    It's called "The Future I Saw", with diary entries and is "based on a dream". One of the covers had a big disaster happening in 2011. That's the year Fukushima was hit with a tsunami.

    A lot of superstition has arisen around it, causing tourism to drop off recently. And flights from Hong Kong to Japan have been massively reduced, and one airline even halted their flights there as of a week ago.

  • Long story short is that America has literally been going through "First they came for ..." for months now.

    I can already see the headlines from later this year and the next, about how "no one could see it coming" and "why didn't anyone warn me(better)". You can actually just go to communities making fun of pro-brexit folk and see the same quotes from them afterwards.

  • The masons and other specialized workers were paid, and there is a theory that many of the laborers living near Giza were paid, but no one actually knows if they were. What is known, is that slaves were used in that era, and thinking they weren't at least used in transportation of materials is naive.
