Build a drone. Learn how to fly it. Even better for long range, are the wood and paper rc planes that are expendable and being used in Ukraine.

Or designing our own versions of the cardboard ones from all our empty amazon boxes.

Too many of his songs are still going hard.

Especially:

• Pollution
• National Brotherhood Week
• Folk Song Army

The fascist jocks think Orwellian tactics will work because they get to run around hurting people in the process. The fascist nerds think the Huxley addiction to distraction will work because they get to sell billions of dollars of ads in the process.

They’re both fascists though, and something is going to have to happen to change that.

I wonder if this is a weird abstraction of the news a few years ago about Apple throttling phones as the battery capacity degrades, or possibly because of the new smart charging that iOS does when it recognizes a pattern and particular charger and limits charge current for overnight charging, which helps maintain capacity.

Or are there just insane Facebook people making this shit up.

I think I heard about about it in the Laura Ashley leaks.

LoRa can get pretty far, but we’ll also be returning to the days of modem speed data.

You sunk cost fallacy, plus even worse is the unknown unknowns buried in a codebase no current dev (human or not) built.

$4k gets a couple more beaters off marketplace. But you gotta know what to look for and live in a state lax intersection rules.

The EV conversion guys like me are all rubbing our hands together to get our hands on cheap donor teslas to stick in much cooler old cars.

Yeah whenever I need lumber I plan to set aside at least half an hour to dig through the piles to find OK boards.

If you went over to the components drawers they’d bolt though, they didn’t know how to answer any questions about that stuff and also knew you were too cheap to buy a cellphone (I’m talking the last 10 years of the store or so, when they tried to be sprint stores or Verizon or whatever).

Can just switch to the next instance. There are dozens!

But seriously fucking the tankies.

We need a urinal cake company to step up and start selling grave shaped cakes to piss on.

Could start with Kissinger, or even preemptive graves for Trump or Musk for the less patient.

Maybe Cards Against Humanity could sell them.

How big are the trash piles, and how rashy is your kids ass?

We play the long game of doing the easier chores (or that one of us don’t mind as much), so that when the stinky ones come up we can bargain about it. Like normal lazy parents.

I think that’s also part of the joke. As the protagonist continues to do normal things like eat dinner at a restaurant.

That’s not from shrinkage (well the 1/16 might be, especially newer fast heated junk at the Homely Despot). It’s from when they mill the rough sawn 2x4 down to “finished size”. You can buy actual 2x4s, but they won’t have the nice planned surfaces or beveled edges.

I’m not wondering why it’s that sized, I’m annoyed why they insist on calling both rough saw and finished items 2x4s.

And I also forgot about the Mainers and their two-by-faws

Yeah, for cooking into shoe leather and slathering in catsup before spending the next few hours on the shitter tweeting nonsense words until you manage a single bunny style bowel movement.

What’s even more annoying is that a 2x4 (pronounced two-by-four) isn’t 2 by 4 inches. It’s 1.5 x 3.5 (sometimes even a 1/16 under).

It’s all because of some unfinished lumber bullshit, but it’s still not as confusing as pipe and hose fitting sizing at least.

Every time this comes up I’m gonna say it, yes there are a lot of stupids. But it takes less than half the US to elect that asshole, and indeed less than half of Americans voted for him.

But more than half we’re stupid enough to let that happen.
