Thanks for that link, I've been thinking about that. Luckily we don't have outages often...

And 'Lie detectors' (polygraphs). Don't forget those frauds.

they were just dropping innocent bats out of planes to splat onto the ground in big numbers like Wile E. Coyote until someone put a stop to it all.

Oh, the humanity... "As god as my witness, I thought ~~turkeys~~bats could fly!"

Enjoyable :)

I'm a bit disappointed "Don't put it in your mouth" did not make it in there somewhere though :)

I wonder?! The one (one) time I saw a hummingbird moth with my own eyes, I thought its wings were opaque -- then again, they move so fast just like a hummingbird, I am probably wrong. (The one I saw was green as well, not bee-like, more like a mimic of an emerald hummingbird of some type).

There is at least one species with clear wings though but the edges and veins aren't?

Anyone willing to bet this wasn't a secret verbal clause agreed-to in order to greenlight the Paramount merger? 'Kill that show that makes fun of me, or no deal', said the fascist orange rapist and his goons.

[–] Arghblarg@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 weeks ago

Sigh. I'm too tired of everything else they've done to be at all surprised.

Remember the storyline in V for Vendetta where that late-show host makes fun of the Dear Leader, and eventually gets head-bagged late one night, never to be seen again?

I'm surprised honestly it hasn't already happened in the new USA. I am willing to bet cancelling this show was a secret clause of that $20 million 'settlement' (bribe), agreed in a smoke-filled room and never written down, as additional incentive to allow the Paramount merger.

What a fucking horrible regime the USA has become.

EDIT: Someone pointed out on another posting of this news that The Late Show is one of their most popular shows (or the most popular late-night show at least), too. This is obvious pandering for favour.

Ironically, ionized particles tend to stick together (trying to become neutrally-charged) whereas unionized particles tend not to interact as strongly; so a group of chemists 'binding' together to form a union would actually be 'ionized' not 'unionized' ... metaphorically :p

I regret that I can only upvote this once. This needs to be spread far and wide , again and again, until it cannot be ignored.

Thanks, good idea. I will go tomorrow if I can to ask about an antibody test. (Yes I'm in Canada)

Best book for learning the ins and outs of MIDI I've ever encountered. Relatively obscure, but an invaluable reference book for anyone wanting to dig into the details of how MIDI works.

 

Nothing we apes don't already know (at least those of us who've been here for 84 years or so), but an interesting take from the MSM on it.

The system is rigged, this is one of the reasons why I Buy, HODL, DRS!

 

A wire broke off the ignitor element in our Harman unit. I have ordered a replacement and it looks simple enough to fix myself. But before sourcing the part I had called about 5 different fireplace companies in the area, and it seems everyone has dropped all support for pellet stoves in recent years! Not only does no one sell them any more (other than Canadian Tire), but they all outright refused to even consider sending a repairperson to help.

It's a bit infuriating. I am calling them, literally saying "please come take my money at your standard hourly rate". One would think "struggling businesses" would be more willing to take on what should be profitable work.

Is it such a liability issue for them that they're actually afraid to take on the work?

What if something bigger fails someday on my pellet stove? Why is no one on the island now willing to work on one?

If you know of someone who does still service wood pellet stoves on the island (Courtenay/Comox), please reply here or DM me. Thanks.

What does this mean? New levels of ass-covering for bank malfeasance, or just the regular sort of opacity?

Good video by Richard Newton updating the whole GME story from the start up to today.

 

This occurred today when I tried updating/deleting old comments via the Redact tool, on the old super-stonk sub.

Guess they're afraid of losing their captive Apes!
