True, but what I see in chemical engineering is college graduates not being very able to use Excel, because they all used Aspen and other very expensive software in college.

To actually be beneficial as a reflector, the foil would need to be a specific distance from the antenna, which should be a certain fraction of the wavelength. Source: I used to make parabolic reflectors out of milk cartons about twenty years ago.

I wish I would have learned how to dance as a kid.

North-East Netherlands. Besides the dialect, every sentence is ended with the word "ja", which means yes/yeah. It's like saying "It rains, yeah", or "Let's take a look, yeah". It's also drawn long, like jaaaa. Also, a lot of nouns are ended with "gie" in the dialect, making it a diminutive.

Singles. The vinyl ones, not the hot ones in your area.

Sure thing, McGyver...

Me too, but I think that one was already done before...

It's the low countries because it's the land around the river delta's, not because of the height of the land. It's originally meant as downriver.

Thanks for taking my trolling in good stride. I actually loved the internet of 20 years ago. It was totally different from today, it's actually a shame a lot of the way it was is gone forever. I vividly remember frequenting a few blogs, just slow chatting in the comments, making your own response images, hosting your own stuff like these images, sound clips and whatever else. Most ISP's would give you some server space to host your own static html pages, and lot's of people used this. The blogs would host photoshop contests, link to stuff they liked, reported on news or music or whatever their niche. The blogs I visited are mostly still around today, but they just don't draw the engagement anymore.

Usually it's just regular raw onion. And there's actually a lot of taste in the herring due to gibbing.

I learned with the right hand, because I went to a backwater school where it was assumed everyone was right handed, and probably my parents never gave attention to these things.

the initial intent of what the internet was supposed to be

A communication network for scientists and the military?

20+40*1-20. The first 20 you had already.

Are you OK?

LOL, this reminds me of an old viral clip in the Netherlands, where a woman stated "my husband is not an alcoholic, just a standard drinker." The husband then proceeded simming up his standard drink behaviour, which amounted to something like three beers and seven shots of jenever each day.

Or maybe they just stand out holding the guitar upside down, making people see a pattern that isn't really there. For instance, while Jimi Hendrix played the guitar upside down, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck did not.

But, it is plausible you didn't flip 50:50 since the 50:50 is on average.

Just do what I did, learn to write with your right hand. As a bonus only you will be able to read your own handwriting, at least some of the time.

I would never do this, because alcohilism runs in my family, and I'd be afraid to become dependend. That said, I know not everyone has the same risk to become an alcoholic, so if it helps and you can manage, do what you have to, life is hard enough as it is sometimes.
