  • Depends on what you’re wearing. If there’s a crotch zipper that’s where the fart will usually go because those things often aren’t gas tight. Otherwise the fart will bubble up until it finds an opening.

    Latex clothing has a lot of not-quite-sexy sides to it. For instance, they tend to be rather sweaty and that sweat has to go somewhere. Prepare for wet feet.






  • I remember a friend of mine once ordering a Double Triple Whopper and being annoyed that Burger King’s definition of “double” is “with one extra patty”. So he had to order a Double Double Double Triple Whopper to get the desired result.

    They delivered the thing to our table together with a knife and fork. I guess ordering an unholy totem pole of meat like that gets you table service at a BK.

    The other thing that was notable about it was that the three "Double"s only added three patties to the burger and nothing else. As a result this caricature of a burger was now 80% overcooked ground beef and extremely dry.

    He ate half of it. We took the other half home, put it in the microwave and drowned it in ketchup, which greatly increased it’s edibility. It still sucked, though.





  • That’ one reason why I can respect Sony’s WH-1000 series (that’s the over-the-ear Bluetooth ones). They have a headphone jack so you can use them as regular headphones with a male-to-male cable. That can extend their useful life by a bit. So it’s not all doom and gloom on the Bluetooth front.

    I am getting rapidly disillusioned with “true wireless” earbuds, though. Far too fiddly and breaky. I had fewer issues with cable telephony than with TWS touch controls.











  • Windows 360¹ will cost 30 bucks a year (adjusted for inflation) and will automatically upgrade you to the latest version of Windows as soon as it comes out. Additional benefits include improved security by blocking non-Store software and having your OS settings managed by Microsoft – Windows 360 will even automatically restore them if they should end up getting changed, e.g. if Recall somehow ends up disabled.

    ¹ Not to be confused with Windows 365, which is an entirely different thing.
