So the coroner decides its treasure and then gets a cut, or they don't decide its treasure and then the finder keeps all, is that how it is supposed to work?

Also on amazon this would draw attention to a good product lining up a horde of resellers with slightly mis-spelled names to advertise knockoffs of the product and pay for reviews to boost their listing to the top of the listings

Tom Scott does a youtube video about one in Canada (IIRC) where they send radioactive medicine from the lab a down the road to a hospital due to the half life of the medication making traditional transport (ie vehicles) impractical.

Edit: bothered to look it up

Exactly what i was thinking, it would be like asking people what a bird sounds like and getting completely different results from different locales.

Me too, know my way around a computer but have never setup a linux distro or anything like that... yet.

I left in one of the mass exodus waves of reddit (during the api changes) and i feel like its not that consequential to be one person less on one of the biggest sites on the internet, but every person counts. Especially when what is becoming increasingly apparent is that all reddit will soon have is bots and 'normies' who use reddit instead of facebook/whatever.

To be fair, these quarter pounders became "in-n-out" burgers too

Just FYI that cleaning spark plugs is actually a thing. Not common but sometimes they can get 'fouled' from things like oil or incorrect air/fuel mixtures.

Does this come in unsliced? Because cut that suckers down the middle perpendicular to the chopping board and you could make a giant toasted ham & cheese croissant slab

Sure everyone knows about the east coast, but less talked about is the Republic of Westralia

Imagine if the world could get its shit together for a planned 4 week lockdown, everyone has ample time to prepare, get supplies and set up for the lockdown, then we simultaneously all hunker down except for the most vital people running essential services (hospitals, water plants, power plants, etc).
We could wipe out so many transmissible viruses, even wiping out the common cold alone would pay back the entire cost in lost business hours.
Im not saying we wipe out things to be able to work more, but wouldn't you rather be at work than feeling terrible in bed? (It's about the quality of life improvement.)

Since all 'electoral votes' go to the winner in the US, why do they even bother mentioning it? Its seems entirely vestigial
