Jerry Cotton posted:What the hell is skåptorrt? Or rather why is there a "torkare än skåptorrt" option since you want stuff you put in the wardrobe to be pretty loving dry already skåptorrt means dry enough to put in the torkskåp, not wardrobe. It is less dry than stryktorrt (I learned this yesterday)

Sandwich Anarchist posted:But, that's what it's called. It's called charcuterie. What would you rather them say? But it's not. Charcuterie is essentially a fancy way of saying "prepared meat", often used to refer to a shop that sells meat that isn't raw. The thing being discussed here is possibly a "charcuterie plate", but really just say "cold cuts" instead? Also the cheese makes both of these terms incorrect, turning it into a "meat and cheese plate" I guess.

Ghost Leviathan posted:Figures that a parody board game is probably one of the most fun of the lot. We had the Mad boardgame growing up, but also another MAD boardgame that I learned just now was Sweden only. The Swedish edition of MAD made a parody of monopoly, called Götebörsen, basically "The gothen-exchange". Swedish monopoly takes place in Stockholm, this one was instead set in Gothenburg. Landing on a street owned by another player was no longer simply "pay and go on with your life", instead having you roll a d6 to determine which of the unique per street absurd outcomes would occur. Options included being eaten by seals, asking for the priest in a fish market (very shameful, don't ask) and getting hit by a tram and sued for damages (not suing). Definitely a better game than monopoly, and to my kid self hilarious.

The 1962 Swedish translation of Bilbo translates the dwarves stroking their beards as "runka", a word that originally meant shake or such. For basically anyone born since, it means masturbation and nothing else.

I can easily both cross or separate (as if looking behind the image) my eyes with any of these, getting a clear sensation of depth or elevation. The fish and the cube work fine, since they already look like what they should. But the ones that are just colors always look like just colours. The red one with clear columns I can move the overlap one column at a time and get a clean center, but it never ever looks like anything but "the original picture, with a touch of depth". gently caress my brain I guess?

zedprime posted:That's one of the problems with english, you're just expected to know the words because we've gotten rid of all the stuff that might hint at how to pronounce it. I mean to be fair, Swedish has no real rules for pronunciation either. The Å/O thing has some patterns, but we have plenty words spelled with O with the same sound as words with Å, and knowing if sounds are long or short is impossible, you just have to know

An advantage bitcoin has over traditional pyramid schemes is actually the instability, as that gives, ostensibly, a bigger chance of winning even if you get in later

SneezeOfTheDecade posted:My friend, this is literally what I'm talking about, because "organic" as a word had been around a long time and actually meant stuff before chemists started saying that "organic chemistry" only meant "contains carbon molecules". Did I say "contains carbon" was the meaning I meant? I did not. Organic has meant, and means, mostly "related to/from living things". Chemists using it to mean "has carbon" is fine, in context, because that's still using it in the original sense but trying to narrow down what "living" means from a chemistry perspective. Using it to mean "food grown in a certain way" is stupid (regardless of if the certain way is good or not. I think "sustainable" would be a better word and goal), because all food is organic, in the what the drat word means sense, not the chemistry sense.

In Swedish it would be "dinosauriehuvudvantar". This might seem as ambiguous as in English, but the trick is that "dinosaur headglove" would be "huvudvantar för dinosaurier", making the other words unambiguous. Convenient!

Nenonen posted:Dinosaur means just 'terrible lizard'. Many languages use both the Greek word and their native word for them. You should, too. E.g. I love seeing terrible lizard bones in museums. In Swedish we have that as well, skräcködla, "terror/fear lizard", but I went with dinosaurie because that's more common now and kept the focus on the handgloves.

Some people here seem confused re: when is it okay to perform violence upon another person, so let me help you out: Are they performing or threatening violence on you or someone else in your vicinity? Are they espousing violent or harmful ideas and ideologies? Performing violence on them might be okay! Hooray. Are they making bad, tasteless or even upsetting jokes, that in no way threatens someones life, security, or anything really? Don't loving punch them, christ, this isn't hard.

Then we have all the people who piss at a urinal and don't consider that "going to the bathroom", and therefore still claim to wash their hands. I'd say 50%, max, but that's putting a lot of faith in the women.

Kenning posted:It's very strange, the first day you don't really notice it cause it's just some weird thing you're doing, but by the end of the second day it feels like there's a pane of glass between you and everyone else. I was still chatting with my coworkers and friends and people online, but something about reaching in the fridge and pouring out a pint of fluid and then sitting back at the computer or whatever just makes you feel like no one else is there. It's an amazingly strong feeling that made the process almost immediately unbearable. Sometimes when I'm very busy I don't have time for proper meals, but even just grabbing a random snack of lunch meat and pickles makes you feel so much more alive than liquid food. I have some coworkers who drink huel or something, but they still do it at lunchtime and sit at the table during the lunch break. I feel the "take my lunch at the computer" part may be a bigger contributor than "my lunch is a liquid"?
