Except where trams are involved. Those have a license to kill.

espentan@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you think of the stunts in the recent Fast and the Furious movies ?2·26 days agoMe neither. It was just ridiculous. When it got to the point where the floor board on the Eclipse mysteriously fell out it was just too all too much, for me. How people who know and love cars ever could think that movie was great is beyond me.
I saw one of the later movies in the cinema, since my date wanted to see it. I felt it was some of the worst goo I’d ever seen, while my date thought it was “fantastic”. I remember thinking “this isn’t going to work out…”, hehe.

espentan@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is the lowest quality product you’ve ever purchased?77·2 months agoA bit off topic; a friend of mine purchased a play mat for his kid, one of those you put on the floor with a birdseye view of roads, buildings etc., from wish (yeah, expectations weren’t high to begin with). When it arrived he realized it was roughly 30 by 30 centimeters.
We went back and looked at the listing on wish, and while no dimensions were listed, the one image it had was of a kid sitting on the mat playing. That kid must’ve been less than 5 centimeters tall.

Looks like this one is a popular candidate for the longest official word:
Minoritetsladningsbærerdiffusjonskoeffisientmålingsapparatur.
It’s an instrument for measuring the distance between particles in crystalline materials.
espentan@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are inexpensive staples in your country?11·2 months agoEurope has better fuel, due to generally more stringent requirements with regards to emissions.
Source: My dad, who used to work with regulations around such things.
Mhm, even when prices are at outrage levels in the US it’s probably half the price of what it typically sells for in Europe.
The quality is a little better, though (e.g. less sulfur, typically of a higher octane rating).
“Det finnes dusinvis av oss” would perhaps be a better translation, but it’s not really an expression commonly used in Norway, so it still feels a bit awkward to say.
espentan@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why are h1 headings smaller than h2 when inside and article tag?61·3 months agoI’ve never experienced H2 to be larger than H1 in such usage, but rather the same size. Are you sure there aren’t any CSS affecting your result?
From a stackoverflow reply:
Why h1 and h2 are same?
This is by design is because browser manufacturers think/agreed, that beneath web editors, producers and developers the <h2> is commonly treated as the visual more important heading and headings in the content documents should then ideally start with . That is why <h1> font-size is not default bigger inside <article>, <aside>, <nav>, <section> tags.

Ads if you’re not paying, unless you’re blocking them, ofc.
Tusky, for Mastodon, and Sync for Lemmy. Last I checked the Sync developer appeared to be missing in action, so might need to switch to something else in the not too distant future.

espentan@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What Questions Would You Ask at a University AI Summit?3·7 months agoAnd an AI will regurgitate what humans have said on the topic before, and so we’ve come full circle.
espentan@lemmy.worldOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What place(s) should I visit in the Caribbean?4·7 months agoAh, that’s right, Sint Maarten and that crazy runway, that’s definitely worth a visit.
A related but not very fun fact; “Sint” means angry, in Norwegian, and double A is how you write the letter Å (if you don’t have access to a keyboard with that letter) and Å is pronounced like the O in the Scandinavian name ‘Morten’, and so Sint Maarten sounds very much like “Angry Morten” to a norwegian, and a Dane.
Yet another reason to visit.
espentan@lemmy.worldOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What place(s) should I visit in the Caribbean?2·7 months agoI’m that generation, too. Well, to be frank, I was 19 when Goldeneye hit the big screen, so I suppose I was already grown up? Although, considering how much I’ve changed, I guess not…
espentan@lemmy.worldOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What place(s) should I visit in the Caribbean?2·7 months agoI just finished watching that show, and it is in part what made me decide it’s about time I explore the Caribbean.
I’ve been to southern Florida, and Key West, a couple of times and I suppose I’m looking for more of that feel/vibe.
espentan@lemmy.worldOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What place(s) should I visit in the Caribbean?2·7 months agoOoooh, nice! Thanks!
I dreamt I visited Jurassic Park with my class from elementary school. Everyone got eaten except me.
