Why do Americans measure everything in cups?
  • Oil and water are fine, but flour already starts to be a problem. How densely is it packed?
    Then we go on to salt, which can have a lot of different grain sizes (although that is annoying with a scale as well because most kitchen scales are not very accurate with single-digit-grams)
    Then it gets really weird when they say to use a cup of grated cheese, because depending on how you grate it it has very different densities

  • Where does pollution go when it rains?
  • The rain that is falling today doesn't end up in drinking water for a good while, depending on where you are. In the meantime it gets filtered by the soil it flows through.
    On top of that not everything that's unhealthy to breathe is unhealthy to eat/drink. Think about coal dust for example, very bad for your lungs but also a common medicine against diarrhea when compressed into a pill.
    Just to give some perspective and lift you up a bit ;)

  • Bahrain race results

    Haven't seen a post for the results yet, so here you go I can't seem to find a possibility to mark it as spoiler though

    German railway seeks IT admin to manage MS-DOS and Windows 3.11 systems
  • Well I live in germany and therefore use the train network on short and long distance frequently and while it is unreliable, "a day" of delay is something I have never experienced.
    Most of the delayed trains are late by less than one hour (still atrocious, but not a day's worth by any means).
    I actually experienced only once a situation where we were given the choice of a hotel or a continuation of our travels by taxi (which we chose) because the train we were in was late one hour or something and the other (last for the day) train could not wait.

  • Has Spain's olive oil become a luxury item?
  • Well making sure that it actually is extra virgin is kind of the hard part about it
    The amount of extra virgin oil produced is like ten percent of extra virgin oil sold. Sadly I can't find the source right now, but the fraud is at an incredible scale
