Mother fokker

Obligatory (there are several versions of this, but this is my favourite 😁 ):

A World War II RAF pilot is reminiscing before school children about his days in the air force.

"In 1942," he says, "the situation was really tough. The Germans had a very strong air force. I remember, " he continues, "one day I was protecting the bombers and suddenly, out of the clouds, these fokkers appeared.

At this point, several of the children giggle.

I looked up, and right above me was one of them. I aimed at him and shot him down. They were swarming. I immediately realized that there was another fokker behind me."

At this instant the girls in the auditorium start to giggle and boys start to laugh. The teacher stands up and says, "I think I should point out that 'Fokker' was the name of the German-Dutch aircraft company"

"That's true," says the pilot, "but these fokkers were flying Messerschmits."

Yes, but

As everyone has already said, use the paper towels. Some doors are also equiped with a small piece of metal at the base of the door which you step on, and pull with your shoe

I've got a plastic version, but if I need to shred a block it hurts my hands after a while, because of how light it is.

I bought one of these to solve that problem (this also has a finer cylinder for a thinner grate):

If I ever need more than a pound, I can probably use the disc on my food processor, although the last time I tried, I didn't freeze my cheese prior, and ended up with a lot of smeared cheese on the disc 😬

What was Linux like in the 90s

Prior to the website rpmfind.net, installing software was to put it mildly, a chore. Due to package dependency, you'd start the compile, and it would fail due to missing libraries. You'd then go out and find those libraries, only to have them fail on compile...due to missing libraries...it would go on like until you finally were able to compile the original package - at this point though you compiled it out of sheer spite for the universe that put you in that position.

I rate the experience a solid 5/7
