It’s a trap. The drawing is misleading. If the left triangle already has 60° and 40° then only 80° remains. Meaning there’s no right angle. The vertical line should be leaning to the left slightly. The correct answer is 135°.

I need a nsfw tag for things that look so yummy they make me drool all over the keyboard at the office.
Alright this topic bothered me so I figured the onus was on me and looked it up. Apparently cold tap water temperatures in some cities around the world are usually around 15°C and can go as high as 25°C in summer. That’s definitely not my experience, I’m pretty sure it’s constantly below 15°C here. So then you’re not a crazy maniac and the regional differences really are way bigger than I expected. Who would’ve thought!
How is it more enjoyable to you? I don’t get it. Do you enjoy the temperature or is it an actual taste thing? Letting the tap run makes water so cold for me that I usually wait for a couple minutes before drinking more than a few sips.
Also if you want to drink something with a taste, always consider adding tap water to it. Most lemonades mix very well with tap water. Furthermore, not everything you drink requires carbonated water to taste good. Sirups that mix with water in a big ratio like 1 portion of sirup and 10 portions of water are nice too.
Carrying home 10kg of drinks every week seems like such a waste, I never understand people who do that.
Of course if tap water is contaminated because of a flood or some other accident it makes sense not to drink it. That said I think in many places tap water is usually cleaner than bottled water (some more so than others). I understand that I can’t generalize, but I think everyone who hasn’t should at least read up on the water quality of their region, ideally on official or trustworthy sources.
(edit: Note that I wrote the following paragraph without knowing tap water temperatures. Apparently it only holds true if your cold tap water is below 15°C.)
And since I’m already ranting: You don’t need ice in your drinks! It doesn’t make the drink tastier or more refreshing. It’s just a waste of time and especially energy, and also a contamination risk. You also don’t need tap water into the fridge. Just let your cold tap water run for a few second and it’ll rinse out the stagnant water that warmed up to room temperature, replacing it with fresher, colder water. I guess in some place this might be more viable than in others. Always depends on the local availability of water and energy.
Oh but she was totally sucking off that drinking straw! 😶
We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings.
To me that seems like a bold claim considering “the divine right of kings” has not been successfully resisted nor was it escaped from. Monarchies still exist on every continent, people of royalty still get more rights and better treatment than others, once-royal families still possess loads of wealth, still rule countries in high political positions, still own many companies and other wealth generating assets. Humans have gained unfair advantages due to their lineage for thousands if not tens of thousands of years and I highly doubt that this will change massively in the next thousand years.
Regardless, it still sounds like a really nice speech though.
I assume the “160mph” mistake exists because 100mph is 160km/h. Some editors probably mixed up some numbers.
How about ducks?
You mean besides the religious ritual aspect and telling people what to do? From a medical perspective that seems to be the whole idea yeah.
😄 Wordplay!
A quick note since it might not be clear, I just randomly assumed that doctors need about 1 or 2 hours to consult with the patient and do the operation. With an average hourly wage in South Africa according to “the internet” of about $15 to $20 and medical tools/facilities costing an estimated $10 or so. Maybe it’s a bit more or less, but those numbers seemed sane and careful enough. Like all the numbers in my estimation they could easily be off by a factor of two or so. Also, since this is about disease prevention note that this is hopefully not done by some random black market quack doctor.
I was curious about the source used for this graph and found it’s a free book that’s available online in the National Library of Medicine (of the US). Here’s Chapter 7 of the book Disease Control Priorities as referenced in the picture.
Why does it make you suspicious? Oh I see, blades near genitals sure are scary.
On the statistic: A little bit of a snip doesn’t seem very expensive to me. I wonder if this statistic also includes the cost for consulting with the doctor or the reduced risk of spreading HIV to other people. According to some reports on the topic by the World Health Organization and US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it seems to reduce the risk of HIV infection by a bit more than 50% and reduces other infection risks too.
Assuming $1000 can afford about 20 to 50 circumcisions, assuming they happen almost exclusively for high risk males (eg men with wife working as a sex worker, or wife living in high risk areas in south/east africa, or men frequently changing sex partners) and assuming this extends life spans for about 5 to 20 years by preventing an infection, those numbers kinda seem sane.

Maybe it’s a sort of strapon biting fetish.
I don’t really know much about this topic even after reading the article. It does bother me however that there’s so many channels/server on Telegram full of spammers that seem to offer drugs and prostitution. It’s almost like those were the only things that exist in this world. Which is such a huge waste of a chat program.
Also who the hell listens to any of the nonsense influencers/politicians write in their heavily biased channels, seriously, I can’t find a sane reason to join those, yet strangely that seems to be the only reason the masses use this tool. It’s all just confusing.

To be fair I wrote the answer, then figured “surely somebody else must’ve written an answer by now”, refreshed, saw two other answers (one 12 seconds old), thought “fuck it” and posted anyway. They’re all written a bit differently so maybe some are easier to understand than others.
