What is your favourite metal song? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] 2 points 1 year ago

Hmmm...

Enter Sandman, and The Unforgiven (Metallica)

The Phantom of the Opera in Tarja's and Marko's version (Nightwish). Also Storytime in Anette's version.

The Keeper of the Seven Keys, and Eagle Fly Free (Helloween)

Chop Suey (System of a Down)

Dance With the Dragon (Dark Sarah)

Ace of spades (Motörhead)

.... A bunch of stuff from Guns'n'Roses, Black Sabbath, and Poison (maybe my definition of metal is wider than yours...)

Other days I'd have listed something by Evanescence, Edguy, Blind Guardian, Dream Theater, Korpiklaani, Alestorm, Nanowar, Dragonforce, ...

Yeah, I tend to be biased towards power metal, symphonic metal, and various '80s groups that are somewhere on the border between "hard rock" and "metal". I know that's not everyone's cup of tea.

    That's soo my wife.

    Friends coming over for dinner, and we want another two seats available at the table? I'd better make her clear off that table because otherwise there'll be another round of "NOOOO, you moved stuff, now I'll never be able to find anything again". "Sweetie, it's all on the side table. I moved the stuff pile by pile, didn't mix the piles" "It's forever gone!"

    Which meaning did they intend? (lemmy.world)
     

    Sitting at a lunch restaurant where one can order either from self service kiosks, or from a person behind the counter. The counter has a handwritten sign "cash only at register".

    Now, which meaning do you think that they intended? That if I want to pay in cash, I have to go to the counter? That if I walk up to the counter, I have to pay in cash?

    (Yes, I could have asked, but by the time I spotted the sign, there wasn't anyone by the counter, and I had already successfully used the self service kiosk).

    Are display sizes always measured in inches? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
    [–] 17 points 1 year ago

    I wouldn't call it "measured in inches" as much as they are "named" with a partly numerical name, which may or may not be an adequate correspondence with a different country's length scale.

    It's similar with bicycles: many tires are named in inches. Two tires with the same number of "inches" may however not have the same diameter, so to translate size-names into measurements is fraught with pitfalls.
