Is it any good? My dad used to drive over to Canada and get syrup in big metal cans (like they sell paint thinner in). I was only like 6 but that was the good stuff.

Trump thinks he doesn’t need to hide it, and he’s too much of a narcissist to let anyone home anything about him.

Except the pens weren’t covered in snippets of copyrighted text.

I was with you until I found out about the present day sloths and the latrines.

93/94 was when I first got AOL on a 14.4k modem. I’m one of those shitty users!

We used to use gopher and college FTP sites to download warez as a freshman in HS, and then moved on to Hotline trackers.

After divorcing and making sure my wife and child get whatever nest egg I can scrape together, I’d go big on highest limit credit cards I could find and we’d all go have as many adventures as possible together (even if it’s just right seeing).

They aren’t our smart people, they’re our rich, powerful, or their kids. Mostly private school isolated twats who think they know more than everyone else.

This is going to be the Idiocratizing of the internet. AI is going to be training in itself with these unidentified posts and get dumber and dumber.

Let’s hope no one lets it have access to anything important…

It feels a little like how steel from before above ground nuclear testing, called low-background (or pre-war) steel because it isn’t contaminated is prized for building some sensors.

Pre AI information need to be preserved, otherwise we might not really know if the info we’re seeking is fact based in any way.

I think that’s what this part of the comment was about:

They might still be, Huffman loves Elon and Elon got away with tons of shit.

Today is the shitty anniversary of my brothers death from AML. He was sick for 3 years and its was good at times and then really hard.

He was already one of the most philosophical people I knew when he got sick. Social Security allowed him to have the time with his friends and family when he was deemed unable to work which really helped the whole process.

We got to drive across the US for the eclipse which happened during his last spell of better health (it was an upswing after a marrow transplant that ultimately failed). I’m taking my 6 year old and wife wherever we need to too see the eclipse this April. So I can show my son what his uncle and I saw right before he was born.

Not great for ceramic coatings though.

Ours is like this and is at least 12 years old. I believe the plastic is over molded directly onto metal handle which sits about 1.5 cm into the plastic.

Bigalow has paper bags, the only annoyance is that they come in individual wrappers made of paper/foil/(possibly plastic lining?).

Lipton came in paper pouches wrapped in paper last time I saw one.
