Tryin to move away from google. But ducksuckgo/bing search just kinda sucks too. Less relevent results. Though google quality is dropping like a ton of lead so we’ll see how that ratio pans out in a few months.
A search engine which, by default, shows me first two sponsored and therefore biased/straight wrong results, is very much shit. I hope for sure it is not “the best”.
But how would I know. I did not use googol in a while…
I watched the new episode of “The Last of Us” yesterday, and they were praising one of the characters for being so smart and triangulating locations supposedly. She said she could do it faster if she had a protractor and all I could think was why wouldn’t she just make one if she actually needed it. She’s sitting there with paper and a pen.
Not sure why that bothered me at the time, but it bothers me that I let things like that bother me in movies/shows lol
That would be one way. Depends on how accurate you need. Could also wrap a piece of paper around your bean can, cut it to that length. Now you can mark 360 equal distant marks down the side, and rewrap around your bean can and trace it onto whatever object you want to make your protractor. But f that, 360 marks is to many, so fold the paper in 4, ignore the 3 sides and just do one, making just 90 degrees and you can duplicate it if you need after by rotating the can… then say f that and realize 5 degree marks are more than enough, so make 18 marks, or 9 marks if 10 degrees is accurate enough for your estimates.
There are a number of ways to do it, but being that beans are in the meme, bean can method is what I’d run with for fun
I had to google it, it’s called a protractor in English.
Nice joke.
Use a better search next time, like Bing or DuckDuckgo. googol sucks and was never any good.

It’s the best search engine out there in terms of results, but sure

Using internet without an ad blocker is a bad idea anyways
Kagi significantly outperforms google as a search engine.
It very much isn’t. Both Kagi and Qwant are better.
I used google as a verb, to annoy the company. I use StartPage btw
I, an utter imbecile, was trying to find the pun in being “pi rad”
Better than me I was thinking they were showing an 180 degree angle and meant obtuse. Our biases are showing!

How could she place precise angle marks on her DIY protractor if she doesn’t have a protractor in the first place?
Folds
Oh yeah, I guess by folding in half to get 90, then again for 45 and so on?
