I hate whoever decided this was a good idea on dating profiles. I don't like making them, I don't listen to them, and there is nothing sexy or romantic about voicemail.

Xkcd is the anti-pizzacake. Brilliant, funny, and intelligent comics, with an art style defined by his artistic ability. Pizzacake has a decent art style, but I'm pretty sure she gets all her comic ideas from Reddit.

We need more tiny face Charlie Kirk memes in our lives.

A lot of people take pride in the appearance of their house, and solar panels could totally alter the appearance of a house, especially one designed in a particular architectural style.

I'd be genuinely impressed if the Argentinian navy actually managed to reach the Falklands.

I'd be gobsmacked if they actually managed to land troops.

There's a conspiracy floating around that Jackson became aware of the human trafficking to the ultrawealthy and he was smeared and possibly killed for it. No real evidence but it's a fun one to think about.

This is not something I wouldn't consider "fun to think about.

Also, damn that got heated.

That's your idea of fun to think about?

Good move, the community has made it very clear they don't want to see any content from these artists, so honouring that is the right thing to do.

I thought we could use something a bit more lighthearted for a change.

No paywall.

Can you imagine being the IT guy who got given the job of digging all that up? What a bizarre day at work.

Check the comments of the original post for the stupidity.

For those of you without an electrical background, the diagram shows the protective earth connected directly to phase, with phase and neutral also joined.

Correctly wired, this would be a three pin plug, with the earth wire connected to the earth pin in the plug, with the other end connected to the metal casing of the appliance. This is a critical safety feature, which will cause the circuit protection to trip in the event a phase wire contacts the metal of whatever this is connected to.

If this was actually done, the most likely outcome is it would trip a circuit breaker, but if the neutral was broken, it would connect phase directly to the casing, and likely electrocute someone.
