  • (You don’t have non-drivers in the US?)

    A non-driver would get a state issued ID card which contains all the same personally identifying information but instead of being both a license to drive and proof of ID it is just proof of ID. The ubiquity of driving here leads a lot of people to use “driver’s license” when they mean “state issued picture ID” since it is a form of state issued picture ID so many have but it is not the only one available.





  • A cup in US Customary is 237 ml (often rounded to 240 ml). Americans don’t exist in a world where they have to play “is this cup US Customary or different measure also calling itself a cup measure?” as all their measuring cups are going to be in US Customary. Butter usually comes in quarter pound sticks with teaspoon (4.9 ml) and tablespoon (14.8 ml) measures printed on the wrapper so you can just cut a hunk of the appropriate volume from the stick and if you were using a measuring spoon to measure butter you’d use a level measure to create consistency and not just let it heap up.

    Note: I prefer weighing ingredients and in metric at that. I’m just answering your questions.


  • I keep going back to Star Trek Online for some star ship pew pew. I usually get a month or two in going back over the story arcs and participating in events until the constant event schedule makes me realize I’m trapped in the grind and not playing any other games. So I drop it to break free and play the rest of my game library. The community isn’t something I really interact with as pretty much all of the game content is playable solo or antisocial (the team content is easy enough you can just random queue and don’t really have to talk or strategize with them). It is overwhelmingly PvE (though PvP is technically in the game) and it has some fun lore if you are a Star Trek fan.
