<egg|matrix|egg> ⟨WeylandsWings⟩ egg|matrix|egg: gahhh why can’... ⮪ Switzerland is weird
<egg|matrix|egg> But Europlug does work everywhere, so there is a standard _plug_
<egg|matrix|egg> The sockets are different but have compatible plugs between France and Germany, but the Swiss sockets are weird
<egg|matrix|egg> (for things with earth that is)
<egg|matrix|egg> https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e4/World_map_of_electrical_mains_power_plug_types_used.svg note Switzerland in the middle of a sea of blue on this map of sockets
<egg|matrix|egg> Meow
<X> How do you tell which is the hot and the neutral pin on the two prong ones?
<X> In the US they're polarized and one is larger than the other.
<X> How do you like the italian ones? Those seem pretty compact.
<X> I wonder if it'd be against building codes to change the outlets in your house to a different country's plug.
<X> Apparently very smart Americans will get a british tea kettle to boil water a lot faster, and somehow hook it up to 240v
<egg|matrix|egg> ⟨X⟩ How do you tell which is the hot... ⮪ You don't

<egg|matrix|egg> Nice
<WeylandsWings> egg|matrix|egg: yeah I am doing the glacier express. Switzerland has no reason to be this fucking beautiful
<egg|matrix|egg> !wpn WeylandsWings
* galois gives WeylandsWings a living planet
<egg|matrix|egg> !wpn Catherine
* galois gives Catherine a 'thicc' mill
<whitequark> lmao
<egg|matrix|egg> Huh, why is the bot not coming through on this end
<WeylandsWings> ? It is coming through for me
<egg|matrix|egg> Ah now it showed up
<egg|matrix|egg> Elements being weird I guess?
<egg|matrix|egg> Or the matrix server being temperamental
<egg|matrix|egg> Meow
<whitequark> !wpn egg
* galois gives egg a synthetic aperture rare sabre with a 巫女 attachment
<WeylandsWings> A shrine maiden attachment?
<WeylandsWings> What exactly is a shrine maiden?
<WeylandsWings> egg|matrix|egg: idle thought. Does Germany have agreements with Switzerland over not overusing the Rhine? Also the thine gorge is gorgeous
<WeylandsWings> The rhine ^
<raptop> serious answer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miko silly answer is that they show up in a lot of fantasy works
<galois> [wikipedia] Miko | "A miko (巫女), or shrine maiden, is a young priestess who works at a Shinto shrine. Miko were once likely seen as shamans, but are understood in modern Japanese culture to be an institutionalized role in daily life, trained to perform tasks, ranging from sacred cleansing to performing the sacred Kagura dance."
<SnoopJ> !how thicc is the mill
<galois> SnoopJ: 173 thiccs
<raptop> pretty thicc, I guess

<WeylandsWings> X ugh dumb Americans. They are complaining about how long it takes and all of the stops at small stations not to let people off.
<WeylandsWings> Like don’t you understand how mountain railways work?
<WeylandsWings> The person even had the Gall to say it should have been a faster ride. Like what how could it be faster unless they did a shit ton of new tunnels which would ruin the experience.
<X> Maybe they thought it was supposed to be an express train and not a local.
<X> Or maybe they're just idiots
<WeylandsWings> X they bought experience class (the super first class) and the train announcements after you get on board proudly proclaims it is the worlds slowest express train.
<WeylandsWings> So they had to know
<raptop> !8 Am I a person?
<galois> raptop: no
<raptop> ah
<SnoopJ> bad bot
<galois> =[
