Thats hot. And I am going to assume this is canon from now on.

Ok furry artists, you know what to do, I wanna see the filthiest Visa x MasterCard art you can dream off. Payment process me baby

To a cell with an unusual amount of spare rope?
- Comment on Have most people never seen a full starry night sky 4 days ago:
According to that map, the place I was visiting to see aurora was a yellow region, but it was definitely dark enough to see the milkyway and the aurora itself by naked eye. If the rest of the map is similar, then there are still plenty of “dark enough” skies.
Would love for more though of course. Better light regulations are long overdue everywhere.
- Comment on Elevators might just be Teleporters in disguise 1 week ago:
There are a lot of transparent elevators. But perhaps those are real elevators, and the others are transporters.

At a minimum, would be nice if the speed got limited to 10mph or something, so you can drive it off the road safely.

My mate had the same issue with his car keys. On the roof, he shut the boot, it slid down and jammed between the boot and the window.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have keyless go, and couldn’t open the car either, so we were quite stuck. Ended up using a coat hanger to pull it out luckily.
- Comment on Listening to stuff on your phone with bluetooth headphones has a fringe benefit of letting you know when you forgot your phone somewhere 1 week ago:
Yes, but not always.
I was messing around in the garage, and put my phone down in the little gap below the windscreen wipers on my car. I forgot it there, hopped in the car, it paired, and away I went. Fortunately I habitually check my pockets, and I noticed it about 3 kms down the road, and before I got on the freeway.
- Comment on If i stain or spill a drink on a shirt, can i just wash it in the bath with generic soap and let it soak rinse and dry to get the same thing as a whole load of laundry? 1 week ago:
More or less yes, but getting it dry will take longer.

Soaking the stain in water asap (before it dries) will go a long way.
- Comment on YSK about opnxng.com, a site hosting public services focused on privacy 2 weeks ago:
Privacy policies are only as good as your ability to legally enforce them. And without a name or address, you’ll struggle to do that against a github account.
Cloudflare may know their identity, but thats still a gamble.
- Comment on YSK about opnxng.com, a site hosting public services focused on privacy 2 weeks ago:
The simple answer is self-host (or dont host it online at all) if you really care about keeping your data safe. Otherwise, use a provider with a published name and address, and if they leak your data, use the legal system to resolve it.
- Comment on YSK about opnxng.com, a site hosting public services focused on privacy 2 weeks ago:
With no published owner information, YS consider it a honeypot.
- Comment on Question about traffic using Cloudflare tunnel 2 weeks ago:
As you’ve described it, and from what I have read, its very similar to how tailscale negotiates its connections.
Does seem to be unique to Plex though.
- Comment on Question about traffic using Cloudflare tunnel 2 weeks ago:
I get how that could work, but what services actually do that? Homeassistant can, but that needs to be setup explicitly for it to work.
- Comment on Are my Frigidaire door bins installed wrong? (Pics in description) 2 weeks ago:
I just assumed that it might have been designed to been to release the tabs. Guess not. I wonder how they got them on in the first place 🤷
- Comment on Question about traffic using Cloudflare tunnel 2 weeks ago:
How does that work? Do they do something like what tailscale does to negotiate the connection? Can you point me to any doco for how that works?
- Comment on Question about traffic using Cloudflare tunnel 2 weeks ago:
I dont know that that is true. With cloudflare tunnels, their
server.x.y.zwill resolve to a cloudlfare IP address, which then tunnels it to their server? The traffic has to hit the cloudflare server, it can’t short circuit that connection? Am I missing something? - Comment on Question about traffic using Cloudflare tunnel 2 weeks ago:
I would assume yes, it goes out to cloudflare and back in. You want to setup an internal DNS server on your network, and resolve your servers address to its local one. That way when your outside your network, you use the tunnel, and inside it goes direct.

Can you get your fingers between the clear plastic and the door and bend it enough to make it unhook?
Just a guess, I dont have one of these fridges.

You can’t receive those emails anymore.

I’m a human. Chatgpt probably doesnt have to edit to fix typos.
- Comment on In media, women seem to scream while men take to action 3 weeks ago:
There could always be more, but there are lots that are overlooked as well. I’m rewatching “the rookie” at the moment, and nearly every woman in that show is a strong woman of some form or another.
And there is arguably a deficit of good male role model characters as well. Room for improvement all around.
- Comment on In media, women seem to scream while men take to action 3 weeks ago:
You are halfway to a profound though (albeit one that many have come across before).
Hop back in the shower and think about it some more.
Some pointers:
- Who is writing these characters?
- Do they really match the women in your life?
- What do these characters say about us?
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 3 weeks ago:
Thats crazy. Are those public numbers from rivian?
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 3 weeks ago:
My only point of confusion is that a 20k loss on every car is insane. I’m guessing its a bit of BYD is subsidised somewhat, and everyone else is price gouging somewhat. No idea the ratio.
Also odd that other Chinese brands (really only tried MG) dont seem to have the same high quality, high pricing that suggests the same level of crazy subsidies.
Honestly, there is just so much fuckery going I just have no idea what is what.
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 3 weeks ago:
But the business model has to change in order to survive. The company cannot undercut forever, it actually needs to change in order to survive. The business model of today is not sustainable. They may have a large warchest, they may be able to crush GM, but once they do, or the warchest runs out, the business model must change.
If you want to make the argument that their overall plan with the later change is sustainable, thats fine, but this current phase is not sustainable.
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 3 weeks ago:
Sustainable implies that they can keep doing it forever without changing. Switching later means what they are doing is not sustainable. It might be successful, but its not sustainable.
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 3 weeks ago:
I think your muddying sustainable and successful. It definitely can be successful, but its not sustainable.
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 3 weeks ago:
I am pretty sure there is some financial fuckery going on with BYD. My parents own two, and they are very nice, but way under priced compared to every other EV manufacturer.
Can’t prove anything of course, but there is something odd going on when everyone else is 20-30k more expensive.
Hard to feel sorry for GM though, they suckled at our governments (Australia) teet for decades before giving up and leaving entirely. At least if BYD is being propped up we are at least getting good cheap cars from it.

“Bring them back, no questions asked.”
Queensland Police are investigating and have appealed for public assistance.
That second statement completely guarantees the first won’t happen.
