You are right, it was an oversimplification, 25% is hardly a 'rare exception'.

In my defense I have to say that it was late, I was already in bed, and very sleepy. And I knew that, this being lemmy, some other nerd would come with a more thorough explanation.

That's the one.

Nope, that's an orange/red tabby while op's is a calico, which is also present in Minecraft. Fun fact: except in rare exceptions all red tabbies are males and all calicos are female.

Note: these aren't breeds, but names for the coat coloring.

The installation in my home follows my country's regulations as they were ~15 years ago. It's divided into several circuits, the 'general use' outlets one is rated for 25A in total AND at any point, ie you could plug a 5750W appliance in any of those outlets. The lights circuit is the lowest rated at 15A, still letting you 'plug' up to 3450W.

Remember when Trump first got elected and ~~Anonymous~~ absolutely everything just suddenly vanished?

Now it's only Trump this, trump that... all the time, your comment as an example, so if he didn't say anything about anonymous then no one has heard anything about them.

He's not wrong. Schools are day-prisons where parents leave their kids while they slave away to make the rich richer. Most teachers (in my experience at least) are absolute shit, and so are the education systems (again in my experience). And before the 'in the Scandinavian countries...' bunch comes: I know a few Nordic people, not impressed, they just have lots of money to throw at the problems (which I would say is the secret for every other statistics they excel in).

Quick edit: that being said I don't know anyone, including myself, that has learned a language with Duolingo. Can be fun but it's useless for actually learning.

Ok I think I see what you're doing, but it's still wrong tho. Going, kind of, that way would be:

volume of water = total_volume (silver_mass - slurry_mass) / (silver_mass - water_mass); where silver mass and water mass are the masses of the total volume if it were only that substance alone, ie (volume * density).

With this method you can use the volume of a block of silver instead of powder, which would be more exact as there's air within powdered silver–you can add a bit of water to powdered silver before the volume start to rise–, and also the total volume and mass of the content of the beaker without taking out the water on top.

Sorry if it's not very clear, I'm finishing my lunch break, I can explain/elaborate when I get home.

Btw I've checked my math: 844.4 g silver + 619.6 g water = 1464 g total; 844.4 g silver/ 10.5 gr/cm3 = 80.4 ml silver; 80.4 ml silver + 619.6 ml water = 700 ml total.

1800g (dry silver) - 1214g (silver slurry) = 516g (516ml water in slurry)

What? Why? I'm kind of sure that this is wrong (subtracting (water + silver) from silver can't get you water, you could get (silver - water) at best) but I'm interested in the reasoning here because it short circuit my brain.

Alright so you did put the signs the other way around!! No lol I think the post says the pedestrian pictogram that then is represented in many signs (ay least here) not just to the crosswalk one in particular, so I thought it applied here. My memory is very fuzzy but this could be an underpass that happened to have toilets as well.

844.4 grams of silver.

I was coming back to say that. I've been in Warsaw, and in the back of my head I had the thought that this would have struck me as weird so I would've noticed. So I went through the few pictures and videos I took and saw this:
