@silvermoonstar3: Typically, laptops are quite hotter than desktops (which is why they're not actually called "laptops", and rather "notebooks").

@KamWrex: Personally, I don't drink tap water (from my city) because it tastes horrible. It's probably safe to drink, but it's often got a chlorinated taste to it. Not to mention the fluoride that's added to the water, which helps with dental hygiene*.

@Stem_Sell: I'm somewhat split on this issue.

@psychiccheese: TL;DR

These might be valid complains in the US, however Maclean's does a yearly ranking of the Canadian universities. They rank each university in a number of different factors, and a lot of the data is collected from students themselves through surveys. So rankings in things like "student satisfaction" is generally…

It seems their data extraction algorithm is flawed. It appears to get the data from MusicBrainz, however it just pulls the "albums" section, leaving out live performances, compilations, EPs, singles, etc.

@Terry: I think he said he's using the engine to brake, which is fine. Unless, of course, you do it wrong. Then you'll end up using, and wearing out, the clutch.

@Phoshi: Oh god my eyes!

You know when you're so hungry that you can't concentrate on anything else? That's me. Right now. 15 minutes before lunch time.

@FFxLORd: "limited to SI units"... That gave me a laugh. (Though I don't doubt it's true.)

@yyg: One thing is bad, one thing is good.

@dackdavros1: It's an idiom, not a metaphor.

The fact that this thing took 7 years of preparation means one of two things:

@laughingisfree: Wait what? I eat rice (on a plate) with chopsticks all the time. It's not difficult at all.

@Arggh! there goes a...snake a snake!: Or possibly earth is the centre of the universe, with a relative tangential velocity of 224 mph at the specific latitude at which the westward bound train carries the chopstick using person.

@xsbs: They tested and confirmed that it's true. They didn't explain why it happened though.

I know I'm kind of reiterating points already been made, but there's really no reason to be texting while driving in the first place.
