Y'all this sound crazy, but the Bug A Salt is fucking awesome.

It's worth it if you can get a black Friday deal or something under 30$ because it's just a little salt when you shoot it and there's no guts on your wall, no dirty fly swatter, no chasing, no jumping, no reaching, and you feel like a sniper hitman.

Its not a toy. That shit hurts when you get hit lol

Nuanced political discourse will not be tolerated on the Internet.

Hey are you off the phone???? I wanna get online!!!!

-Shouted from a different floor where the PC was

This reminds me of an NPR podcast from 5 or 6 years ago about the people who get paid by Facebook to moderate the worst of the worst. They had a former employee giving an interview about the manual review of images that were CP andrape related shit iirc. Terrible stuff

Meanwhile I went to school one day as a teen and had left the torrent up by accident seeding and 4 days later my isp called my parents saying that there was a huge fine coming my way if I didn't cut it out. The isp was super small so the company they were the end user and they were nice enough to give us a heads up. The notice said something like 25,000 on it.

Brick Immortar - does very neutral, safety oriented breakdowns of maritime disasters (mostly) I love his narration, he speaks with a ton of authority imo and I find all the procedures and rules of ships fascinating.

Animagrafs - modern marvels but shorter and on 1 topic. Extremely professional animations of big ass machines. He just did one on Big Boy steam locomotives and it was amazing to see the systems work.

The Squidd - does video essays on famous cars and their histories

Game makers tool kit - following his journey of learning game development

History of the entire universe - incredible free documentaries about the deepest and craziest topics about our universe and reality. I listen to them to sleep

I did a thing Backyard scientist William Osman ^science YouTubers, menaces

Marcus house - following along with space progress, specifically starship.

No clip - video game documentaries

People make games - interesting stories about gaming, very professional deep dive stuff (Roblox is the devil)

Regular Car Reviews - bizarre car reviews with a goofy narrator who makes a ton of literary references I think he used to be a teacher

Secret Base - sports stat nerds (watch their scoragami and worst NFL punt videos)

Technology connections - learn how genius some of our everyday inventions really are

Zack Freedman - ADHD tech maker 3d printing nerd

This is confidently incorrect.

The real answer you were looking for was PHEV.

This is a tremendous book. Also my favorite.

HOWEVER

I don't know if it fits op's requirements of being able to work to it without focusing on it. I certainly wouldn't want to have my first experience with this story cheapened because I wasn't paying attention.

So entertaining, so enthralling. I love that book with all my heart.

Project hail Mary is my favorite literature I've read in the last few years.

I would love to see it done justice with a movie done right.

I found a different article that quoted her "former friends" and one said she was basic. Another said she's the poster child for white privilege and a third said she's nothing but trouble lol

Like damn wtf... How are you this hated?

The insurance will figure a value for your car if it's been involved in an accident, stolen, or gets damaged by some crazy storm or something. They use the cars age and mileage to figure this out. If the appraiser looks at the damage and sees that fixing it (parts and labor and paint) is going to cost more than the value they gave it...well then it is totaled.

A totaled car will retained by the insurance company and they pay you out according to your policy.

Those totaled cars can be sold for a residual value (see copart.com). And be built back up and driven. But the title is now branded as a salvaged vehicle. Anyone who buys a totaled car will get a branded title either salvage, flood title, idk what all different states have for the name of it. That branded title is tied to the vehicle by its vin number forever. That's why you see the commenters saying they should frame swap the motorcycle to get a different vin number on it.

Oh man, I recently found out not everyone wipes 💩 the way I do and I'm convinced everyone else is crazy. They gotta be walking around with dooty cheeks all day.

Also, I constantly flick my big toes against my second toe making a small raspy snap whenever I'm barefoot and sitting.

Even so, this feller apparently has 100TB seeding perpetually.... There's no way 1 movie equals that traffic.

It's just an anecdote about the other extreme for the sake of having both sides in the comments since I happened to be someone that it really happened to

I have bad news for you. He names stuff after cult shit.

Not sure, just realized this is a computer post lol

They don't want that smoke

My shit won't stay logged in on my server. No reason for it. I've Googled my self to death over it.

Installed jellyfin, works first time, haven't looked back since.

Yeah aram and TFT for me lmao

That is correct

It's all good. I just don't see it being read any other way. I don't really know if they are wrong tbh. Being tolerant of intolerance paradox and all that

What is rpms in Linux? I just lurk on /all so I see a ton of Linux stuff that I don't understand haha

This is the only comment I need lol

I'm glad you asked, I was making a lot of assumptions here.

So I like roguelikes that have a sense of progression in them, it's hard to play something over and over and the only satisfaction they give out is "you went farther then before, here's some xo and coins"

It seems like it has base building and an organic sense of progression within a run, both make it appeal to me. But I'm just unsure of what I get out of putting 2 to 12 hours into a run and seeing it all be for naught when I die.

The tension and high stakes also appeal to me, fwiw. I'm not saying I shouldn't care about what I do in the game, I just want there to be something in it for me at the end.

Is the macro gameplay loop more than just getting better at the game so you can survive longer?

Thank you for your insight on this one. I appreciate it

That's a good point. They make their money on service not sales
