Jorking it requires no ingredients (that I do not already possess) and is therefore free.

If you'd like to do this, consider instead an odd phrase that would not be guessable. Using a a string of generated symbols means that if a customer service representative ever asks for it, "it's probably a long string of random characters" will work to bypass it. On the other hand, if the color of your first car is "Albert Einsteins mustache" the service rep will be confused but unlikely to accept the wrong answer.

I assume because it makes the coin flipping part more absurd.

I have to respect an organizational scheme that so clearly knows its priorities as to place human people in the "people" directory within the "yiff" directory.

This is the OP translated to English via google translate, for other who were curious:

I'm also posting here, as I saw that my previous post was shared there.

Update: Following my test with a satellite dish, I'm planning to build a solar cooker using this diagram. The linear dish is 50cm wide and 1.40m long. For the reflectors, I plan to cut 50cm x 5cm mirrors. The dish isn't curved, but rather composed of 50cm facets (I haven't designed the transverse reinforcements or the mirrors).

I plan to build the structure from reclaimed chipboard, with a few pieces of 5 and 10mm plywood. For the complex parts, I cut them with my fablab's laser cutter and will use it as a template to remake them in thicker wood with a trimmer and a copy cutter.

I'll probably double the crosspiece at the top for added rigidity.

The upper parts with the holes are intended to hang a pot and eventually a hotplate. My goal is to see if I can make a solar griddle.

That is a weapons-grade life hack right there.

This is a Photoshop of Norman Rockwell's Triple Self Portrait, for those who think it's neat.

The labeling on those axes is horrific. A human is apparently about 7 units of "Large" on the "Size" axis, and can piss around 110 units of "Jet" on the "Shape" axis.

What is 7 units of Large Size you wonder? Fuck you. What is 110 units of Jet Shape you ask? Hell if we know. You sure aren't going to.

What are all the unlabeled dots? Who cares. Sample size? "I saw one do it."
