Re-thinking it, I think that would be kinda cool.
It’s not far off from people who own jukeboxes
Burning all the DVDs would be a pain in the ass, but I do have most of a spindle that I haven’t touched since…2013?

But what more, short of killing every cop, are you suggesting be done?
Seems you understand what needs to be done
I’ve found a couple plugs “upgraded” to 3-prong by jumping the load and ground together. That made for a fun firework show when my metal fan touched something metal. Even the landlord was impressed by that stupidity.
Ah, the good old reverse polarity bootleg ground.
Fun fact: RPBG is the one fault that those plug-in outlet testers can’t recognize
Edit: Wait, no, that would be hot bootleg ground, they should catch that. RPBG has the hot and neutral switched, and also a bootleg ground to the neutral that’s actually hot
Reminds me of a story about magic
I doubted the blow, but it could be true; turns out the Columbian Exchange started around 50 years before the Church of England broke from Catholicism
Lol. That’s fantastic
Then just don’t answer?
With the people who tend to call out of the blue, not answering tends to result in repeated calls, and then when I finally have a chance to call back, usually it should have just been a text.
If the conversation is best had via an actual call, text me and we’ll schedule a call. We’ll schedule it soon, like “call you in ten minutes” soon, but it’s just easier with a little heads up.
If you are calling me without any kind of notice during working hours, somebody better be in the hospital or morgue; if you’re calling me without any notice outside of working hours, alcohol better be involved
Sure, just need to pull out my earbud if it wasn’t already in, push my welder out of the way, make my way out of the shop and into the yard where there isn’t constant grinder or saw noise, probably find a sheltered spot because it’s fuckin wimdy, and all before the call goes to voicemail because if I answer on my way towards the door I’ll get complaints about how it’s loud and they can’t hear me over the background noise.
When my dad wants to talk, he texts me something like “Hey Stephen, give me a call when you have a chance”, and then I oblige when I have a chance. Most of the time it probably could have been an entirely text exchange, but whatever.
When my mom wants to talk, she just calls out of the blue, I don’t answer, and usually we don’t end up talking.
…I forgot where exactly I was going with this, but something about lining the call up beforehand
I think part of it is the English/French rivalry here; I’m in Alberta and I know more people who can speak Spanish than French.
Maybe the cruelty is the point?
At what point does the US let them know that we’re not going to let them drag us into WW3 just because they need to steal some land
The US is going to let Israel drag them into WWIII
The comment you’re replying to is deleted, but from your comment I assume it was about hydrogen as fuel?
Hydrogen fueled vehicles are generally electric, using a hydrogen fuel cell, rather than being internal combustion using a hydrogen engine. Compared to battery electric, hydrogen has the benefit of fast refueling and higher energy density, but has the drawback of difficult storage and lack of refuelling infrastructure.
As a vehicle fuel, I think hydrogen does have a future, but only in commercial/industrial, particularly shipping. Semis already have predictable routes and stops/depots, and building hydrogen refuelling stations into those depots wouldn’t be too complicated.
Hydrogen passenger vehicles, with gas stations being replaced with hydrogen stations, will never happen.
They literally are; Palestinians are literally semites
Ice cold water, or Gatorade if I need the electrolytes (usually due to hangover, rather than exercise). Orange or yellow-green, red and white are tolerable, fuck blue
Sad and entirely predictable; we already knew he was a shitbag
Now do the IDF
Oh, the road needs resurfacing, most of them here do. Decades of conservative government will do that
Naw, if I’m going to have a DVD jukebox, it’s gonna be as bootleg as it gets. Converting AVIs to whatever the fuck format DVD players understand was a pain in the ass then, I’m sure converting MKVs backwards to the same format is still equally annoying, but it’s the principle of the thing.
