I filled an 800 litre hot tub up in abiut 2.5 hours.

Although you also have to account for distance…

- Corporal_Punishment@feddit.uktoNo Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are both US cops (or sheriffs) able to exercise extraterritorial jurisdiction whilst they're abroad?English13·1 month ago
In the UK anybody can make a citizen’s arrest if it isn’t reasonably practicable for a constable to do so.
However it can only be for a crime that is indictable (can be tried at a crown court). So things like significant theft, burglary and assault.
A US cop has no additional rights to enforce the law than anyone else.

Yes. I agree. I’m not sure why you’re arguing with me about it

I like to think so, in all seriousness it was quite useful. Really emphasised importance of foreplay and safe sex (including how to use a condom) which when the time came as a teenager was invaluable.

If you’re a Xennial its easy. Go back in time and search through your dad’s wardrobe. That’s how I watched it.

You mean New York cops aren’t taught to crawl through air vents or how to abseil onto ships from a bridge?
- Corporal_Punishment@feddit.uktoAsk Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s an obscure but concrete technical fact that keeps creating preventable issues in the real world?English18·1 month ago
Visit any old city in the UK (York and Edinburgh for example) and a lot of passages between streets have steps with uneven heights.
When you’re expecting it, its fine, you take extra care. But when its a modern building and they’ve fucked it up you really notice
- Corporal_Punishment@feddit.uktoAsk Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would you do today if today was your last day?English3·1 month ago
Well I’m away at the moment on a short holiday but without my wife and dog.
So being unable to hold either I guess I’d get off the train and drink myself into a coma.
Unless of course I can get home quickly
Quit our jobs.
We would stop paying the mortgage, assuming anyone is even still at the bank it would take longer than 6 months to evict us.
Then we’d just hang out with our dog and do as much fun stuff as we could
