Resisting the urge to explain how using two feet can propel you forwards...
... Do not use this tag for questions about other crate lakes (eg Okama, a.k.a. 五色沼, goshiki numa, in Japan).
'Accept an answer' sounds better! Re prep for travel I was the same - right down to wet clothes - (and still am to some extent) but a Packing List made a huge improvement (see travel.stackexchange.com/questions/25923/…).
I would like it added to "What tasks would I need to complete to prepare for any international trip, regardless of destination?" but I fear not practical.
Don't you know that real men, and hairy beasts like @hippietrail travel light? One pair of underwear in the wallet is more than enough for 20 days, man.
@NeAnDerthal: just got my laptop battery repaired at the secondhand electronics market in guangzhou for 50 yuan - i didn't even bother haggling for that price
Halim Perdanakusuma International Airport (Indonesian: Bandar Udara Internasional Halim Perdanakusuma) (IATA: HLP, ICAO: WIHH) is located in East Jakarta in the Indonesian capital Jakarta.[1]
This airport is also used for military, private and presidential purposes. Government officials are also allowed to use it.
Yes. Ah! I got lucky (in asking Ne An Derthal while you were in chat). Found it is a meta Q but forgot I'd never be able to find it again. I think we may be down to 8 missing Excerpts and I offered something for [crater-lake] about one page up from here.
I'm in China and would like to buy a stylus for the tablet I aquired a week ago.
I tried to explain to several stalls at a secondhand electonics market in Guangzhou today what I needed and nobody understood.
I know the word for 'stylus' in the sense used with touchscreens is 触控笔 (chùkòngbǐ) but...
When it rains the lane markings become almost invisible. Even in the daylight it is hard to see, but at night it is much harder.
Would installing a specific color of foglights help? Would it help to use polarized lenses?
I bought a brand new sony vaio laptop (Model E15135). All is good, but its battery never charges to 100%. When it reaches to 99%, and i point the mouse to the battery, it shows "99% Available (Plugged in, Charging)". When i contacted to sony vaio care for warranty, they are saying that there is n...
@hippietrail 99% is enough, as well as kinda meaningless. Remember that a depleted battery might still show you 100% charge, and the last just mere minutes.

hmm, found a bug in starring messages in chat. I cannot typically star my own response, but if I pin and then unpin it, a star is added which cannot be removed
@mindcorrosive That's fine, nobody will notice it over there.
Beware peeps.........
SI 2015/806 will come into force on 19 October 2015, 4 and 18 January 2016 and 1 April 2015. SI 2015/1451 is an Order of Council made under SI 2015/806 which appoints those dates for its commencement.
Plus I have maxed out for today and I caught it too late for an emergency bounty :(
@JoErNanO Recap. Started when Gayot (G) offered a theory and then requested his name not be associated with it ∴ invitation for others to advertise “Gayot’s Law” rather than let G get away with it fading away on chat. mindcorrosive (m) saw an opportunity to wind up G and so pinned the relevant chat entry - to up its profile. I then interfered with @m b++++d - tempted to flag that for moderator!
m brushed off my ‘threat’ by wielding his mod powers I can just cancel the flags and nobody will be the wiser. m had trumped me, which I then ungraciously acknowledged, with weeel ... guess diamonds deserve something for the work they do (maybe?), on occasion.
You chipped in with “blood diamonds” (I guess referring to carbon) which I (feebly) tried to twist back to mods by suggesting a typo, ie should be “bloody diamonds”, as in “bloody nuisance mods” - but there were other chats going and I screwed up. Then Are they called bloody diamonds? was just getting too surreal.
@JoErNanO It's a very dim memory, something about cleaning them right?
@pnuts It's not so much here as those self-absorbed creeps on the main site, SO. They take umbrage at something and you're in for a whirlwind of downvotes and deleted answers.
You may have guessed that I'm not the world's greatest fan of that site :)
I wouldn't be there if I didn't need it for my 'day job', LOL
@GayotFow I was not following it but I think it was a discussion about how combinations (up/down/inside out/etc) combinations could manage and hence when x4 (days for each) what the maximum days was before they had to be washed.
I prefer SO to SU (though getting a bid jaded all round - already have abandoned SU and WA). Agree TSE is far less 'formal' but for a Q&A site don't think 'fast & loose' is good. It's fun like chat is but for quality discipline is essential (provided not so much as to drive away the contributors). I think TSE is still a little too 'cavalier' though doing blood&"y" well for its age AND facing a much stiffer challenge than The Trilogy where quantification is SO much easier.
what? If that were true, why would red lights exist?
@NeAnDerthal here's a question. If a wedding is happening in Iran (not your favourite country but bear with me) - any idea what type of gift is common there? Do you give gifts for destination weddings (eg when we're flying from NZ/UK/Canada?)

If it is true, are there any rules of thumb about where you should and shouldn't do it.
