Reply to comment by Lonely_whatever in ELI5: Morse code is made up of dots and dashes. How did telegraph operators keep from losing track of where one letter ended and another began? by copperdomebodhi
The issue isn't deciphering where the words end, but which letters are being used. Etsborlaekdascas,wyshishedr. Yes, an experienced operator can guess from the context, but it will slow things down.

Reply to Best way to defrost a fridge / freezer? by Mr_Straws
There's no need to move it or use electricity to defrost it. You can simply turn it off and open the door. Be prepared for it to drip, and catch all the water once it starts. After some time, you'll be able to remove large pieces of ice by hand (or a plastic tool). This is a great time to wash the inside. Be sure it's reasonably dry before you turn it on again.
And make sure the seal is good, or you'll be doing this every week or two until you buy a new fridge.
