TIL there are two units of measurement that are both called ton but confusingly are not the same as a ton. One is a tiny bit more than a ton (1.016 tons) and one is a bit less (0.907 tons). Apparently people use the prefixes long and short

I see a lot of negative comments in this thread about Sonos in general, which is interesting to me because I'm currently thinking about buying Sonos speakers. What exactly don't you like about it? Is there a good alternative to So

Proof? This is just some random person claiming it's not true but they link to an article which explicitly states that it is in fact true. Am I missing something?

In Swiss German I would spell it "glustig" or "gluschdig". I would "germanize" it as "gelustig". If you are "glustig uf öppis" it means you have "Lust darauf", often used in the co
