rsa101 That’s true, especially during the rainy or wet season when the weather can go either way. It might look like summer, but it can suddenly change to rain, and vice versa. That’s why it’s easy for our bodies to get sick in this kind of weather. I know cold and...

Probably it’s not news that Iran shot down an American Army AH-64 Apache attack helicopter recently. The two airmen were rescued. After floating for about two hours, the men were picked up by a boat then hoisted to a helicopter....

rsa101 @ptrikha_2 I saw the news too, and it seems like this is becoming the trend in modern warfare. It’s more cost-effective, and with remote control, there’s minimal risk to human soldiers. It’s also impressive that drones can reach as far as Moscow—or were they...

This is so sad. We've discussed this before off and on in the years I have been here on mylot. I still find it absolutely tragic that so many people simply cannot make change, and if they pay with cash, they have no idea if they...

rsa101 It’s sad when some people are too lazy to count and give the correct change. I think it could cost them their jobs, especially when their work involves being a cashier.

rsa101 That’s quite a lot of coins to catalog. Is that coin still in circulation, or are they old coins you’ve collected over time? If they’re indeed old, they could be sold at a premium and might earn a good amount if they’re considered rare.

rsa101 What I dislike about getting a new phone is figuring out how to transfer all my data from the old one. That’s where iPhones excel—it’s built into their design to easily prepare and move everything, including apps and related data, from the old phone to the...

rsa101 I think education has become stagnant over time due to the government’s lack of focus and excessive politicization. Every change in leadership brings a new set of plans tailored to whoever is in charge, making progress slow. It’s become too dependent on the...

rsa101 @Ineeddentures That’s true. That’s why enforcing age restrictions online is so difficult. There are countless ways to get around them and hide one’s real age.

This one is a favorite here at home. A sponge cake with caramel icing and filling. Not too sweet, just perfect. Every bites melts in the mouth. I like to pair this with coffee. It's a simple dessert but it goes a long way.
