  • It’s all fun and games until you try to take your cranks off and they decide to stay on. Last time i replaced my bottom bracket took me hours because of that bullshit.

    But i agree, lots of fun fixing it yourself. And much cheaper.

  • I'd have made Quark a space dwarf (loves gold pressedlatinum, short in stature) and I'd have made romulans space goblins (descended from space elves, evil).

  • Simply going to Mecca isn't the Hajj. There are a whole bunch of rituals Muslims have to do while in Mecca and its surrounding areas.

    When the pilgrim is about 6 miles (10 km) from Mecca, he or she enters the state of holiness and purity known as ihram and dons the ihram garments; for men they consist of two white seamless sheets that are wrapped around the body, while women may wear sewn clothes. The pilgrims cut neither their hair nor their nails until the pilgrimage rite is over. They enter Mecca and walk seven times around the sacred shrine called the Kaaba, in the Great Mosque; if possible, kiss or touch the Black Stone (al-Ḥajar al-Aswad) in the Kaaba; pray twice in the direction of the Maqām Ibrāhīm and the Kaaba; and run seven times between the minor prominences of Mount Ṣafā and Mount Marwah. On the 7th day of Dhū al-Ḥijjah the pilgrims are reminded of their duties. At the second stage of the ritual, which takes place between the 8th and the 12th days of the month, the pilgrim visits the holy places outside Mecca—Jabal al-Raḥmah, Muzdalifah, and Minā—and sacrifices an animal in commemoration of Abraham’s sacrifice. Male pilgrims’ heads are then usually shaved, and female pilgrims remove a lock of hair. After the rajm ritual at Minā, in which pilgrims throw seven stones at three walls (formerly pillars, symbolizing the Devil) on three successive days, the pilgrim returns to Mecca to perform the farewell ṭawāf, or circumambulation, of the Kaaba before leaving the city.

  • This seems like a meme about piracy for script kiddies. These issues don’t really exist for anyone who knows what they’re doing.

  • Bakery pet rescue sounds like a recipe for hairy cookies.

  • Maybe in the US. In colombia everyone uses clippers or the cheapos on the right. I hardly ever see Bics excepts for the really small ones.

    Clipper lighters are superior to bics since you can refill the gas and replace the spark on the clippers.

  • What happens if the czech tail touches the oklahoma handle? Is it like matter and antimatter?

  • The rest of the galactic population is in the void with us. It’s the rest of the universe outside the local void that has quarantined us.

  • I think everyone except Kasuf and Skaara are different actors between the film and show.

  • And beer. Don’t forget the beer.

  • Phrasal verbs are the bane of english language learners. It's one of the weird things that natives speakers don't notice until they are mentioned by someone learning english or they become an english major.

    Wipe out, mull over, look up to. These are just some of the phrasal verbs you want to think over.

  • Lol the bread bowl is eggs, heavy cream, pork fat, and prosciutto. I can hear arteries clogging from just looking at the picture of this meal.

    I’ll take three servings.

  • Not “most likely”. He can definitely see through the cards since he mentions it to Worf in an episode. He only does it after the hand is played but even that could be considered cheating since he might be able to tell what your bluffs look like.

  • Ah, i misread your comment as saying 4g of meat/kg and not 4g of protein/kg. Thanks for the correction.

  • Not especially. That’s 300g or 10.5 oz of meat for a 75kg person.

  • Borg Mac: I gained and lost 60,000,000,000 drones in three months.

    Future Janeway: Wow, that's almost impossible.

    Borg Mac: Well, first of all, through assimilation all things are possible, so jot that down.

  • Bengay and phaser cleaning lubricant

    He trains physical and phaser combat all damn day so it makes sense.

  • The universe is a holodeck novel.

    If When we see a false vacuum decay that'll be Broccoli turning off the holodeck.

  • TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name @lemmy.world

    That’s why they call me Mister Deltacorp. I’m traveling at the speed of warp. I wanna make a supersonic crewman out of you.

    TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name @lemmy.world

    Let's say you and I go toe-to-toe on bird of prey law and see who comes out the victor.
