The sun DYK is obvious, unless you're 3. What ******* moron needs to be told "don't look into the sun, little Jimmy!"? When you try to look at it, it's bright as **** and makes you want to look away, so you do/should. Simple.

This explains the daylight savings time part better, there are actually 3 graphs.

Socks are super cheap though. I once bought a pack of like, twenty for five bucks. I understand having difficult affording many things when you're homeless, but socks are just so inexpensive that the feeling just doesn't stick to me.

Even that classical kind of "mgabue in africa only earns a dollar a day" superpoverty would only need to put aside money for a couple weeks to buy a set from my local shops.

the archery one kind of makes sense. i hears somewhere that during the crusades the muslim forces would fire bows with their feet so that they could draw the bows further back

Do they think a homeless person would download an app?
User avatar #21 to #16 - mondominiman (12/16/2015) [-]
One of the services that is given to homeless is a cellphone that way they can call 911 in an emergency. These days it's a basic smart phone now so....yeah a homeless person would download an app.

The last made me question every fact there. What the is it even trying to show?

It shows that if daylight savings were abolished there would be less days with a sunrise at a 'reasonable' time and more days with a sunset at a 'reasonable' time. Another way to phrase this information might be that daylight savings allows the daylight (for the work day) to begin earlier. Yet, another way would be to say this is that if we didn't move the clocks back then the daylight would last longer into the day and that daylight wouldn't quite align with the work day since mornings would be more often in the dark.

tl;dr not moving the clocks back one hour means daylight lasts an hour longer

That actually did help, so I appreciate it, but "reasonable" is a weird way to put it. It also seems like an obvious fact that shouldn't need to be explained. But I guess that's most ****

It is not applifie during a solar eclipse. The blinding effect is due to a combo of the observer's pupils ( in the sudden absence of strong light) expand. The corona being vivible + the eyes being more receptive to light creates the same effect.

Its a dromaeosaurid, it branched of from the line that would evolve into birds 167 million or so years ago. There is no possible way that it's descendants could evolve into modern day aves.
