They missed the opportunity of calling compact disc "Digital Audio Disc" (lemmy.world)
 

How would VCD be called then?

This joke is probably so trivial to come up that it isn't documented.

This can't explain why the colour of some grape/lemon soda are white.

examples

  • grape: purple or green. translucent white flesh
  • apple: green, warm white flesh
  • kiwi fruit: green. brown skin
  • passion fruit: yellow. dark purple skin

exceptions

  • watermelon
  • peach

Tomatoes are special in that they taste* disgusting and that their skin and flesh colour are the same.

TIL: savoury yoghurt exists.

to be fair, i shouldn't be that surprised since we have savoury soy milk here.

I have licked both. Licking table salt is more intense.

It is meant to be taken literally. It seems that I've consumed way too much sugar. (30 g / 1000 ml is normal to me)

I've only seen slightly less refined (yellow) sugar being used at home, but white sugar isn't any sweeter.

Is salt very sour? Very savory?

second one.

Which one is a better antonym for sweet?

in Chinese it's bitter (not enjoyable).

What about an antonym for sugary?

bland?

These two sentences are translated from Chinese, so the wording may be suboptimal. The original version is given below.

鹽十分鹹；糖不太甜。

Failure is the best teacher, but the tutor price is usually expensive.

How to raise exploration score? in c/pixeldungeon@lemmy.world
[–] YICHM@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

How would that pairs with on diet? Maybe I need to craft some Aquatic Rejuvenation.

Regarding Demon Hall, maybe Feather Fall would help by skipping floors and do the exploration during ascension? I'm not sure though.

It* seems that succubi will refuse to drop SoMM when I need it, and will only drop SoMM when I already got four of them...

Do I need to explore every tile? I've got 2 foresight from scroll book, but the score is still not good.

If precious scrolls were to be* dropped to prevent them from being burned, the scrolls shouldn't be dropped on said spot because picking up scrolls* takes precious time. This is only a concern if the hero does not possess* the* scroll holder.

No parking pavement marker being right beside a parking slot (lemmy.world)

Context: the red pavement line means "no parking".

E: context:

  1. There are a stretch of no parking zone behind the frame that looks pretty much the same
  2. This is also the bike/motorcycle lane
  3. There are enough room in the parking slot, so extra room for maneuver is not necessary
  4. The parking slots are not free
  5. The parking slots are next to a intersection

E: imo, the parking slot shouldn't be there.
