Totally agree, but you really never know where would be insulated from everything

I mean surely in the 1930s Hawaii felt like an excellent place to be insulated from war…

Totally. But “down pat” and conversational are a bit different.

US ex pat here:

I agree with a big decision, but I strongly disagree with needing the language down pat before you go. You should know some for sure, and mostly have a willingness to learn it. You’re going to learn so much faster while there than you will studying in the US.

Just need enough language to get by at first

Does… Does this person reach through the legs from the front?

And dont bring hair dryer!

COVID didn’t feel like it was going to change everything all at once at first to me. Lots of “2 weeks and it’ll be over” talk. Then reality slowly set it.

9/11 felt like all at once to me, same with the second Trump election. Like I woke up and things were different.

Jeg elsker dig for det

I have a Raspberry Pi 500 running PiOS that works well like a computer to just play things in browser. No ads or anything of course. But also no casting from a phone or anything

What’s wrong with “25 over 3?” I see the need for half 4 by itself but things being relative to that is so weird to me

Ugh okay here’s another “Danes shouldn’t be allowed to make number stuff”:

The time 15:25 is “five minutes before half 4”

“Fem minutter i halv fire”

So you round up to 16 before even halfway, what!?

Gas? It’s so much cheaper than the EU, even when it’s at its more expensive in the US

Look at the indent around the opening. On the shorter can it goes from wide to narrow at the back of the tab. It’s more of a straight line on the taller can

If I still worked where I used to I 100% would. No cans around me now :(

I guess I’m a bit rusty, so I am not sure at 355ml and the skinny profile if you can get a 202 end can, or have to use a 200

Hard to tell if it’s sleek or slim

Edit: Actually no, that’s a 200 not a 202. Look at the profile around the tab.

They do, but overall the can end (lid) is a LOT more aluminum than you expect and the whole rest of it isn’t as much as you expect.

So a little less lid is worth a fair bit more sidewall in terms of weight of aluminum

It’s definitely more surface area per volume, but a 200 vs 202 lid and a smaller hermetic seal cancels some of those losses. Sidewall is cheap aluminum wise, but you’re likely right in that it’s a little more aluminum. Definitely costs more to make since they do fill a little slower.

Also fuck coke, what a bunch of assholes

That looks like a 202 vs a 200 can end, so a “sleek” not a “slim” (red bull can is slim)

The sleek can is 355 ml and uses a 200 end.

As for which uses more aluminum… Good question. It’s probably close

Sounds like you could invent a language with fancy rules :p

Um in Danglish:

Larry sold a lot of his(hans) stuff. Tom gave Steve his (sin if it’s Tom’s and hans if it’s Steve’s) stuff.

Just just for the current sentence(s). Like a new subject would “reset” it

Also, for what it’s worth, it feels a lot more natural with mixed genders here to me:

Steve gave Christina his phone
