seppoenarvi@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Why do Americans always presume that everyone speaks English9·7 months agoI’d think that this sign is not there because of American tourists. All the Americans I’ve met while traveling, have acknowledged that English being their native language is a privilege and have been very polite towards people who don’t speak English that well. But in Europe English has become the universal language and it’s easy to forget that not everyone can speak it as well.
seppoenarvi@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•This was the first result on GoogleEnglish4·1 year agoTo answer the original question, a fridge requires quite a lot of power to operate. Could be 500W. There’s also power loss from the voltage conversion, so you need a battery and an inverter that are able to provide more than that - let’s say 600W. Car batteries are typically 12V lead-acid batteries. 600W means 50 amps from the battery. That’s a huge current. Lead-acid batteries can handle high currents for a short period of time, but high currents have a negative effect on the battery capacity. So my guess is that the fridge could work for a very short period of time.
Before cell phones, we had a cordless phone… which others were able to hear from the radio.
Me too. Couldn’t quite make it to the bathroom. I remember our first grade teacher asked me to come to her office and told me to next time throw up in the bathroom.
