Ok ,that's hilarious 😂

I love that other countries have adapted this. Still have to gloat that Finland has offered these for every mother-to-be since 1949.

"Collect all 112 million titles" :D

If that's aligned with the steps that's a vastly superior design for those that are dependant on hand rails

Nice.

In my area we have an incredible public playground that is designed for kids of any ability. There are many items like this. The idea is for ALL children to be able to play together. I was blown away the first time we went there.

Why is not done more often instead putting it on agricultural land? I saw somewhere they covered sound barriers next to motorways with panels. Perfect location.

I've been here! It was a nice way to spend some time

There are now apps for the blind that use AI to describe images captured by the user's camera. So, a blind person could walk by a park and his/her phone can describe what is goin on in real time. The best use for AI yet.

I want one of those.

This should be on all fitted sheets!

I found myself wishing they would put swatches of fabric by some of them, when I see beautiful velvet and silk in a painting, I wish I could feel it

On a less fun note. My daughter came back from visiting her dad in the Midlands (UK) and she said that the Morrisons (supermarket) toilet had blue lights. This is to make it harder for users to find veins!

They have that in so many places in Japan! Extra points for this being a men's restroom.

The triangular shape also has 2/5th the volume of a similar diameter circular shape, greatly reducing the manufacturing costs for what are essentially throwaway items.

The sentence is "the wind is blowing in the storm", for non-French speakers

In the US, people would just take everything in the bin and stuff, their purse...

Wheeee!😍🤩😍

Back in my day, we just had clothes driers.

Excellent Yorkshire Tea 😎

Hope it's tamper proof

I remember playing N64 in the children's zone when I was 13 and sprained my ankle and was waiting for an xray. It was a good distraction!

I buy empanadas from a guy who will literally emboss the name of the filling on the empanada itself

Bakeries in Australia score the tops of meat pies to differentiate the filings. A single score will represent beef, two scores might represent beef and mushroom, a triangle might represent beef cheese and bacon

These look similar to the pasty, traditional food in Cornwall, England, particularly in coal mining areas. The pastry edge used to bear name/initials of the owner, but was also made big enough that the miner could hold the pastry part with his coal-stained hands, while he ate the main filled part. The empty pastry was thrown away.

I want a place that has empanadas!

But the table is the cat tax! Audi pounces the table and bats it around the kitchen, and I get to eat my pizza without his help.

Looks like a standard cycle bottle holder, cleverly repurposed.

Vertigo is so relaxing

As someone with constantly dirty glasses: YES. MORE.

or in the sun ... depending on what part of the world you are.

They're not camouflaged - I can see them both !

...or don't want to touch buttons that everybody on Earth has touched since the last time they were cleaned.

We have a store near here with a path around the store with various slopes and rocks. I won't buy hiking shoes anywhere else.

And stab people who bother you. Bonus!

"Glass manifestation" is a mandatory requirement for glass doors and walls in the EU, to prevent injuries. You cannot have continuous unmarked glass walls, and must place a sticker, or have part of the glazing made opaque, to warn users about the glass.

Brilliant! I love it.

Until, being cats, they figure out a way around it.

that's pretty cool

They should have redhead-pale, too, lol.

Puts on a horror movie where you are chased down a corridor.. 🤔

Excellent idea. I'm sure there's loads of leftover food from school cafeterias that go to waste each day

We had a bunch of these in my area. In a matter of months all the tools were stolen and the pump part vandalised so it was unusable. People suck.

I’ve seen this in some libraries in the UK too.

*Takes a mental note to bring cupcake molds to our next family vacation with our toddler.*

It's quite common in many European cities built on hillsides. Vigo, Toledo and Barcelona in Spain have them, Albufeira in Portugal, Spoleto in Italy... It's a cheap and effective way to provide mass transfer with minimal impact.

In Japan when I had an eye test, they used the "rolling C" format, where you have a circle with a gap and have to say whether the gap is at the top, bottom, left, or righr

when that thing has condensation on the side, its gonna slip from my hands SO fast

more eco-friendly,AND more efficient!

I would leave full ones as well 😁

Just for your information: this is definitely not the norm. Never seen this and I only use public transport. But I would really like it. Another but: we have several book shelves on private property or public places where you can get books or stuff for free and it becomes more and more. At least from my home I could reach three tiny free shelves in five minutes, more in ten (by foot)

Good thing no Skateboard ever was designed to easily take the trucks off with a screwdriver.
