- Comment on The window for a convincing UFO video has closed 23 hours ago:
Well, since there is an apostrophe we can assume that it’s either a contraction or possessive. Being that I’m unaware of the contraction I’m leaning towards possessive, so that means whatever UFOs are belongs to someone or some group named “B.” To my knowledge, the organizations that widely go by B are The Boston Bruins hockey team, and The Bloods, a street/prison gang originating in Los Angeles California. Idk what a hockey team will realistically do with UFO tech in a game where flying isn’t involved, so my best guess as to the meaning is that the Bloods have really leveled up and the Crips should be worried.

In fact, I can think of a few reasons the US gov shouldn’t even be trusted to fund this. Namely the CIA/NSA possibly saying “bitch we fund you, don’t report these things we exploit or no more money.”

Well not me, and again I’m not exactly a porn star over here, I’m literally just above average for my demographics, statistically. Maybe a micro?

I mean, as someone who was once 9 (and I’m not lacking but I’m not that gifted either), still idk about this. They used skateboard bearings, like bones reds but cheaper (if you wanna make that shit fly, throw some swiss ceramics in there). I never fidget spun because I’m old but I skated so I recognized them instantly. Maybe if the bearing was popped out, but no way anyone fits in a fidget spinner with the bearing in.
That axle hole is 8mm, the external diameter is still only 22mm, but maybe, if the wiener in question can squish down to roughly 23mm. Still hard to believe. Reds pictured for reference.

Tbf, you can think god isn’t “real” while also hating the concept of “god” for being responsible for so much war and division throughout history (among other reasons.)

Ngl, I use mine almost every day.
My car is old enough that I can replay with no desync, I use it to keep my car running and locked when it’s cold and I pop in for some food on break at work, or if my remote dies; it has every remote in my house in it, xbox one, my living room tv, my bedroom tv, my workshop CRT with the lost remote, my ceiling fan, and can be used on all other IR or (almost all) subghz devices I encounter; my local bar was real loose with the touchtunes remote one tuesday afternoon when I totally wasn’t in to copy specifically that (I gave the bartender rides home when she had a DUI, they’re cool with me) and I was able to copy it, now I can control the volume outside (among other things but I’m responsible with my powers, I only skip Rick Springfield and Don McClean); a couple of my friends no longer need to worry about giving me keys when I feed their cat because RFID, and I “have” a gym membership now (the gym allows sharing, probably not specifically cloning but they’ll never know); I can send myself Pokemon Silver mystery gifts on the GBC, and I have a GPIO board with a link cable to trade pokemon in too; marauder/evil portal is a little too malicious for me but it’s neat, and flipperHTTP is cool too; some of the GoodUSB stuff is cool; I have a 2gb flashdrive image on it I can use in a pinch; and tbh I’m sure there’s more I left out.
Though yeah “we don’t even have a baby dept in this location” and “since when are our CVS announcements in spanish?!” are priceless lmao.

Thanks for the advice Agnes.

W10 wouldn’t get past the pin screen (type pin, then black screen forever, nothing else), so I used a live boot disk of fedora to rescue my files (turns out you can just bypass windows pins and mount the drive), then installed fedora on my old toshiba satellite and never looked back. Few years in I upgraded with linux in mind and now am cruising with a Framework 16. No regrets.

I want to make a drone and a dropper for meshtastic and totally-not-weed purposes, I wouldn’t be making bombs, but I gotta say, it really isn’t that hard to make bombs if you did want to.
Sure we can’t get the RPG heads to duct tape on em, but a primer positioned over a pin, some gunpowder and lead shot, a weight in the front of the shell to ensure it falls right, and a 3d printed shell will be pretty effective against soft targets. “Conveniently” for bombers here there isn’t much armor to contend with in the streets, nobody has tanks/BMPs or even pelvic plates on their carrier (hell not even many plate carriers day to day, even though people do have them.)
Hell, the Boston marathon bombing was done with a pressure cooker from Kohls and nails from Home Depot, sure those can’t be drone delivered, but explosives aren’t actually unobtanium, you just need to do a little more work.
And again for the FBI guy in the back, I’m not making bombs, I’m using it for radio, and I don’t even have one yet because I wanna try and find one I can program to follow me to extend my radio range (which I’m like 80% sure is possible.)

No it isn’t and I’m old too. It’s either butt rock, dad rock, pop, rap that’s actually just pop now, or terrible country. Barely of each is even passable but there’s a few gems in each except for the country which would need to go older or play Charley Crockett and they won’t.
