The other day, my parents and I were checking out some conspiratorial pamphlet that was shoved into our mailbox, that claimed "mEdIcInE uSe Is ThE #3 gReAtEsT kIlLeR!!1" and we collectively went "#2 is water drinking and #1 is oxygen inhalation."

I also heard a claim that such patterns can (marginally) discourage graffiti of the seats. And if branding is a thing you care about, they can reflect some parts of that. London S-Stock trains' seats point to the lines where they run, and there have been Danish trains that straight up feature the old DSB logo in the seat pattern.

I wonder what surviving human held the record before balloons (excluding edge cases like jumping gaps on a mountain bridge). Probably it was someone falling from a cliff into snow or water, but maybe it involved something weird like a gunpowder explosion or volcano.

Me: Is this birdcage made out of nickel?
Pet Store: Aluminum I think
Me: So there's no nickel in this cage?
Pet Store: Don't you dare!
Me: It's a nickleless cage
Pet Store: GET OUT!

Pretty much what it says on the tin.

If I click the chain icon on a comment with MMB on the website (Lemmy.world, BE: 0.18.3, accessed via Firefox), it opens to a blank tab. If I do so with LMB, it works just fine.
