Doing a little napkin math here, that’s about a half an ounce of heroin mixed into 385 gallons of water.

That seems more like the 55 gallon drums had previously been filled with heroin, but were drained and refilled with water, and just a little residue was leftover.

“It came out of nowhere”

Seriously, how can it be legal to put camouflage patterns on cars?

I was never a fan of Linus tech tips. He always seemed like a weird guy. I did watch that video where he totally fucked his Linux installation by being really dumb. The package manager warned him that he was about to destroy his system and made him type something like “Yes, I know what I’m doing”. He then reacted like, “why would Linux do this to me!? It’s so hard!”

Either a paid shill or an absolute moron.

Having kids is stupid. The world doesn’t need more people. Stop it.

Is it even possible for Linux to get enshitified? Wouldn’t the open source community just go back and fork from before the enshitification began? Surely, enshitified versions could be made but people would simply not use them unless there was some proprietary component they wanted.

Its definitely a cannon.

Dickes’s work pants are always like this, horribly inconsistent. But they were cheap and they last forever so you just have to grab a pile of the same size, try them all on and buy the ones that fit. Good luck ordering online…

I think part of the answer is transient bottlenecks and a backward propagation of the traffic waves they create. They’re caused when a large number of cars merge onto the freeway at an onramp, slowing down the right two lanes; when some jerk cuts someone off, causing a momentary slowdown; when there’s something interesting on the side of the road that people decelerate slightly to look at. Of course, actual bottlenecks obviously cause a backup as well.

It’s weird that people care about this. Let other people enjoy their food prepared whatever way they like it.

I presume that many people who cook their stakes well done came out of Europe during the mad cow disease concerns or grew up in other places where there were health concerns around undercooked meat.

This weekend, I gave my girlfriend’s dad a nice computer with Linux mint installed. I put a shortcut to windows 11 setup to run in virtualbox, in case there were things that he felt he needed windows for (to spare him the frustration of needing to tinker too much if he didn’t want to).

Down with Microsoft spyware.

Surely the oxygen and carbon dioxide also diffuse through the aqueus humor and surrounding sclera.

Gen z calls it zerking off.

Atticus seemed to be saying that corporations already know everything about you because of your phone and that people are silly to try to protect their privacy, implying that these people are boring and really have nothing worth keeping private.

I was trying to illustrate that people should and actually do value their privacy, and that they should continue to take measures to protect it.

You come in with - bruh, have you ever heard of a phone book?

The info you shared was not interesting and only served to convey your lack of critical thinking ability.

I assume that the downvotes are from you and I notice that you haven’t shared the information. I think that is a good and appropriate response. Nothing good can come you sharing this information here. Privacy is appropriate and valuable even for people who are doing nothing wrong and who aren’t even particularly interesting.

To really drive in your point, why don’t you post the names and phone numbers of the three people you contact most frequently. Don’t worry, those numbers are already in the phone book. It’s ok, you’re just sharing publicly available information.

You’ve missed the point. The phone numbers are not the valuable information. What’s valuable is the list of each person’s social contacts.

Its never wise to put that many k’s that close together.

Would you mind posting your phone book and a copy of all your text messages here for us all to read? Can we see your photo album, all credit card transactions, amazon purchase history, GPS location data, credit score? We promise only to sell this info to other people, use it to sell you stuff, raise your insurance rates, tell us where to focus our funding for political campaigns. Don’t worry, we’ll only save it forever and you can be assured that we’ll feed this into AI models 10 or 20 years from now, along with everyone else’s data, establishing a massive cache of information from which incredible inferences will be possible. We may or may not use this information to enrich ourselves, increase wealth inequality, influence politics. You should surely not take steps to limit the data being collected about you. Just relax your body. Let it happen.

All the best memes and content came out of 4chan because that’s where all the weirdos and perverts were. It’s the same reason that the new seasons of Rick and Morty aren’t as good as the old ones, they got rid of Justin Roiland.

I just watched a movie called The Life of Chuck. At one point in the movie, due to failing infrastructure, people were just sitting in their cars, not getting anywhere because traffic was gridlocked.

Eventually, people abandoned their cars, dejected, and walked home. After that, people seemed to have concluded that any kind of transportation was now impossible. Nobody in this movie ever considered the option of riding a fucking bike! Not a single bike in this movie once cars were off the table.

People are so locked into thinking that a car is their prosthetic limb and that they’re disabled without it. Fuck cars.

I realize that more expensive fuel for transport of goods means more expensive everything. We need fuel and we need a plan for a transition to renewable energy. Hopefully these refineries shutting down will provide an impetus.
