- Comment on I don't have money to pay premium to not see ads. What in the world makes you think that I have money to buy what you are advertising me? 4 hours ago:
It’s unlikely that you’re exceptional in your resistance to advertising.
It’s just that 95% of all advertising fails to hit its intended target.

Same principle as the weed doctor. You just need a therapist willing to sign off on whatever you tell them. Quite honestly it’s probably even easier than that, normal intake for drug abuse is a questionnaire about usage history.
So what all young men should be doing now is going to get drug abuse treatment just to get the intake paperwork done. Tell them you’ve been using since you were 13 and can’t stop. Give them a phone number one digit off from yours if you don’t want a phone call to remind you to come to treatment since you’re just trying to establish a history.

With a press brake it would take a few minutes. Doing something at home with sheet metal that thick is going to be a bear of a job even with a sheet bender. You might be able to find an outfit online willing to do it for you, or at the very least cut the sheets for the fab shop to bed for you first.

My next car is going to have physical fucking knobs and buttons.
I’m not buying another car with a tablet to control the media and the climate, regardless of power source. If I have to buy a 10 year old rust bucket I will. I’m not going back to the tablet until there’s literally no other option available.

- Comment on Are there any easy ways and methods for actually studying socialist theory and such? 2 weeks ago:
It’d be real cool if that could be made in to a mobile game. I’m so rarely at a desktop anymore
- Comment on Today is the 40th Anniversay of Zelda! 2 weeks ago:
I played it as a kid, though to be fair the only progress was made when my dad played. It was mostly brute force, “ok, can’t go any further here let’s try another path.” And eventually you were at the final boss. My dad eventually got to the end and thought he got lucky, that he’d just happened to go through the rest of the game first and collected everything he needed. I don’t actually think it’s possible to get to Ganon in the first game without going through all the dungeons.

- Comment on 15 degrees fahrenheit feels almost the same as 5 degrees. However 35 degrees feels WAY colder than 45 degrees. 3 weeks ago:
15 f is pretty chilly. 35 f is cold if it was warm yesterday, but warm if it was cold yesterday, 45 is the same. 5 f is really cold if it’s humid or windy, but tolerable otherwise.
-15f is where your teeth start to hurt if you open your mouth outside.

Fun fact, while the earth will almost certainly be engulfed by the red giant phase of our sun, it will not be immediately consumed. A floating lump of rock will exist and continue to orbit the center of mass for millions of years inside the sun.
