INDOOR PLUMBING

I live in an apartment complex. The thought of having to share an outhouse (more than 1 if lucky) with hundreds of strangers TERRIFIES ME. And/or use chamberpots. FUCK NO

A BLESSED ETERNAL AFTERLIFE OF BLISS FOR ALL HUMANS WHO CONTRIBUTED TO INDOOR PLUMBING SCIENCE 😩

probably leeches

found the escalator engineer

but I am impatient and also I hate escalators and want to spend as little time on them as possible :[

stand on the right of the escalator, walk on the left, or go to fucking jail

(reversed in countries where they drive on the left)

also no single wide escalators. (MTA, cut that shit out!)

I lol’d

Technology Connections: REAL SHIT
Technology Connextras: I sleep

In addition to other reasons listed in replies, there’s a fair bit of bacteria that excrete antifungal compounds into their environment so that they can colonize it more effectively than the mold.

There are viruses that attack fungi, too.

Any environment that hasn’t been sterilized by some means is a constant microbial warzone between bacteria, fungi, algae, archea, viruses, etc. with the current winners being determined by how favorable the conditions (moisture, pH, toxin concentration, etc.) are to each species.

Could be one batch or many. A “batch” means different things in different food industry contexts and has more to do with ingredient tracking than production timespan

They probably do. Though, food industry metal detectors have to regularly be calibrated with check wands: plastic bars with very small embedded metal fragments designed to mimic possible contaminants like brush wire, oven conveyor pieces, etc.

When I was QA at a food plant that used them, there were numerous problems with the metal detectors.

1. Line operators were haphazardly trained on calibration and how fucking important it is to do it correctly and on time. Lots of operators rushed or skipped calibration and falsified the logs. The fact they were rushed, overworked, and underpaid didn’t help.
2. The detectors had a high false-positive rate, leading to a “oh it’s probably nothing” attitude.
3. Management didn’t want to spend ANY money on maintenance and upgrades that would have prevented metal contamination or decreased detection errors.

To this day I still have a lot of anxiety eating factory food because of the nightmares I witnessed at that place…

When I was having my “what’d you learn at school today?” check-in dinner conversation with mom, and I learned the European settlers did not, in fact, peacefully move in and fairly share the land with Native Americans. :|

or pee my name in the snow!

mum says it’s my turn on the female internet slot!

yeah it’s wild. every time i open Lemmy any internet application I turn into a guy? it’s very handy when the women’s bathroom line is too long

where do you think the piss came from?

also the spirits of mines that are sometimes benevolent and sometimes malevolent
cobalt is named after them because it was a toxic ore seen as a contaminant that caused injury and death to miners

moreso this is a hypothetical alternate universe where every time a straight woman says the word “dyke” it gets bleeped, a la that South Park clip

Removed by mod

if straight women got bleeped when they said “dyke” I’d have a way easier time dating 🫠

just run up to a hot gal with a fake microphone like “TRIVIA POP QUIZ WHAT’S THE WORD FOR ‘an embankment for holding back water’!?”

“[bleep]?”
“correct thank you ma’am have a nice day”

“dyke?”
“correct! question 2 are you single and/or dating?”

How do you think they got to be archaic?
