It’s a bit like why drilling into a wall might make the lights go out if you hit a cable. Your brain only registers “feeling” in any part of your body because a nerve carried that information to it. The nerves from your lower arm and hand pass your elbow. Hitting the nerve directly causes signals in it which you brain interprets as pain in your fingers. Presumably the nerves for the pinky side of your hand are slightly more exposed.
It’s that after the wash cycle or after the drying? Pretty normal for towels that are heavy with water to be pinned to the drum after a high spin. But if they don’t then tumble off during drying (or are physically caught on something) then yeah something’s wrong. (You could just try a lower spin cycle)
Make sure it’s a blind test ;)
no, it’s not. it’s a meta analysis of multiple double blind studies. multiple
“For the children described as sugar-sensitive, there were no significant differences among the three diets in any of 39 behavioral and cognitive variables. For the preschool children, only 4 of the 31 measures differed significantly among the three diets, and there was no consistent pattern in the differences that were observed.”
if you did the same with cyanide you would be able to conclude that “taking cyanide and being dead is positively correlated” even if there were other causes of death. in this wide summary of multiple double blind experiements, there is no correlation between sugar intake and child behaviour. that’s not to say kids don’t act up and get hyper, but it’s other causes, most signficantly parents just underestimate how hard kids find it to regulate themselves when having treats of any sort (non-sugar included) or being in a party atmosphere with friends.
I listed it because it’s one of the things I would sworn by too having seen it first hand. However when you conduct a double blind experiment, kids still get excited at parties / treats / days out / when their friends are over when there’s no sugar in the treats.

In otherwords as parents we massively underestimate how excited or crazy kids can get just because they’re excited and not because of something in their bloodstream…
that putting the thermostat up higher will heat the house up quicker (edit: I have in mind a bog standard UK home thermostat)
that sugary sweets make kids act “hyper”
that the moon’s apparent size is due to how close it is to earth (same for seasons and the sun)
that your base metabolic rate slows as you age and is primarily responsible for you putting weight on in middle age
Is this a fragment of a sentence? Because it seems like an incomplete thought.
If there’s further information to come in the sentence with the monkey as the subject you could use brackets to indicate your thought and write…
“The monkey (about whom I’m wondering: ‘can they see my ears?’) did something or other…”
This isn’t strictly grammatically correct, but seems to be the most natural way it could be written and said without sounding weird.
Or is ‘monkey’ an answer to some other question and you’re adding that other information for context? If so, you could use a semi-colon.
“What’s bothering you?”
“The monkey; I’m wondering ‘can they see my ears?’”
I like to think somewhere researchers are working on actual AI and the AI has already decided that it doesn’t want to read bullshit on the internet
Maximum profit is extracted being in a perpetual state of “will they/won’t they WWIII” which is why we’ll be right here in this mood for a long time…
“and now class I would like to draw your attention to a footnote that existed between the ancient empires of Britain and the Glorious Peoples Empire of China… for a time there was a thing called ‘America’…”
I had a washing machine that made audible chirps as you dialed through the programs and an irritating ditty whenever you engaged a program. It couldn’t be turned off. That was on a physical dial. But it also had flat touch buttons with no bevel or edge or tactile feedback - and these were always silent - so most of the time you didn’t know if you’d really pressed it or not. God. The first time I used it I was like… “what the fuck”. It was brand new in 2023. I cannot comprehend how someone can design, make, and program something so stupid.
My first week at a major fund company I was assigned to an internal business tool used by thousands. I noticed all the company email addresses in the sandbox weren’t correct, so I ran a script to correct them. Cue a call from C-level to my boss asking why he got a “email changed notification”. Followed by another… And another… And another…
I went out to lunch

Debian + GNOME. I’m extremely new to Linux so excuse my ignorance. I searched around the topic a while finding some commands that didn’t work and others having the same issue. If you know different that would be much appreciated!
It seems impossible to set display scaling from the command line. Anything that fixes that would be nice.
Every day further from god’s light etc…
