  • The Post-Work Pipe Dream

  • It's been a few years but Post10 was the name of one guy doing that. I watched some of his videos a few years ago, now every time I hear about a clogged drain I think "too bad Post10 isn't here"

  • Revelation is vague enough they can get anything from it

    Jesus thought he was coming back in a few years.

    Matthew 16:27-28 “For the Son of Man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay everyone for what has been done. Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”

  • What old person thing do you do now that you wouldn't have guessed you'd do when you were younger?

  • Get a $250 printer and start using it. It may be all you'll ever need, but after a year or so it's likely you'll start seeing other printers with different functions that you think would be useful and will decide to upgrade. Hopefully you'll know what you want by then.

  • If Washington were alive today he would say "The Moon? You mean the big round thing in the sky? The fucking moon? People went there? They walked on it? On the fucking moon?"

  • Why do people go out of their way to dodge manhole covers while driving?

    Jump

  • Big tires don't really help for that though, and lifts like that often have a tighter suspension and a rougher ride. The vehicle you want to drive fast over bumps would be some kind of luxury car that puts a lot of emphasis on having a smooth ride.

  • Hegseth says he’ll order random pizzas to throw off monitoring app

    Jump

  • I'm always surprised the pizza index works. There are over 20 restaurants inside the Pentagon, including a pizza place. It should be easy to make everyone order from those when something is happening

  • Social Insecurity: Billions of Social Security Number and Passwords

    Jump

  • The article says more clearly "2.7 billion records with Social Security numbers." The author goes on to say he found 4 records with a friend's data but in those 4 records were 3 different SSNs. He called the friend and confirmed that one of them was his actual SSN. I guess someone was auto-linking names and SSNs for ID theft purposes and getting it wrong sometimes.

    RFK Jr ridiculed as he promotes strange fitness initiative topless with Kid Rock

    Jump

  • Same. I started to like him when he appeared on David Letterman a lot. He seemed genuine and funny. I learned more about him some years ago when he dropped out of public life. People were worried and thought he was being held hostage or died. It was very weird.

    Turns out he was doing great and died in 2024, possibly while dressed as Barbara Striesand*. We should all be so lucky.

    *(Wikipedia says he did a social media post with a photo dressed as Barbara Striesand and was found dead minutes later.)

  • Double standards

  • I think of the method this guy used as "The Sarah Palin method" because she once did a news interview while people were killing turkeys in the background that way.

  • All U.S. Social Security numbers may need to be changed following a massive breach that is already being investigated as a national threat

  • Christians should show they're not the antichrist by getting "Nero," which is Greek for "not the beast" tattooed on their forehead

  • BMW’s Newest “Innovation” is a Logo-Shaped Middle Finger to Right to Repair

    Jump

  • What if it's a torx instead? People have to buy torx bits to work on their car.

  • BMW’s Newest “Innovation” is a Logo-Shaped Middle Finger to Right to Repair

    Jump

  • I don't see how it could be effective. The brand specific things I mentioned are almost identical and none of them stop people from repairing their car. The BMW design is simpler than the ones I mentioned. A flat screwdriver with a gap cut down the middle would work.

  • BMW’s Newest “Innovation” is a Logo-Shaped Middle Finger to Right to Repair

    Jump

  • I don't really know. I purposely picked the things I mentioned because they're similar to the BMW bolt, but the tools required are cheap and simple for all of them.

    Part of my point was that there are other, more complicated and more expensive tools that are brand specific too. I think a lot of it is really just the nature of the beast. Brands do thiings differently, so a special shaped tool to get into the nook and cranny of a certain car won't work on a different brand that has different nooks and crannys. And you can substitute "brand" with "engine," "model," or even "year."

  • "specifically intended to prevent BMW drivers from fixing their own cars."

    Give me a break.

    I hate to break it to people but every manufacturer has a lot of brand specific tools. You need a special socket for Toyota head bolts, 10 point sockets for Honda suspensions, a special multipoint socket for Audis, a special socket for Mercedes lug nuts and it's good to have a 21.5mm for Fords. 5 point security torx are starting to pop up on GMs.

    That's just an example of a few sockets, the deeper you go into a car, the higher the possibility that you need a $400 special tool or kit for a specific manufacturer, or even specific year or engine.

  • An auto rotation isn't a crash. An auto rotation can end up as one but usually looks like a normal landing

  • Nearly 80% of weapons seized by Mexico’s current administration come from the US

  • Mexico only has one gun store.. It's on an army base, heavily guarded and it takes months of background investigation to be approved to go there and buy a gun.
