I’ll never forget that number but, if I lost my access to me contacts, I’d never be able to call parents, siblings, or friends.
- Comment on fur sure 2 days ago:
Steakhouses and nicer restaurants, at least on the west coast of the US.
- Comment on fur sure 2 days ago:
Blackberry sauce for steaks is somewhat common, and delicious.
- Comment on The person who mounted a spice rack into the fucking studs so a fridge won't fit there 3 days ago:
What are they cooking with they need to put that into a stud? Was it common for them to set their tungsten rolling pin atop and then hang their lead apron from the edge? Did they have a recipe that calls for a pinch of neutron star?

- Comment on Do you ever get the feeling of zooming out of your phone into your head and actually realizing everything, instead of just mindlessly watching videos? 1 week ago:
Divorce yourself from algorithmic feeds. They’re basically used as Soma.
- Comment on Valid crashout 1 week ago:
Never have, never will. Supporting hate to eat mistreated animals doesn’t sound tasty.
- Comment on Crazy how nature do dat 2 weeks ago:
Its made by soaking leaves in gasoline, stomping on them with dirty logs and feet, and pouring on lime and concrete after that mush has dried. Don’t worry too much about what you snort it with.
- Comment on How come if my dog is sick and I take him to get put out of his misery its ok? On a human its not? How come human laws don't apply to animals? I think of our dog as family and he's one of us? 2 weeks ago:
My stepfather made use of Oregon’s Death With Dignity law. Him scheduling his death a week out was… weird, but I’m always glad it was an option.
Though at one point a doc did legally have to inform him that instead of the painless and easy medical assisted death he could instead choose to stop eating or drinking.
- Comment on Is Kagi Worth It? 2 weeks ago:
I really love Kagi. Search lenses and results customization are worth the $10 and Privacy Pass is, to me, like an invaluable insurance plan.
But if you’re happy with DDG, then I’d say just try Kagi for a month or two. You’re going from good to great (IMO), and not dogshit to great like a Google user would be.
- Comment on How do trains save fuel when they literally park on the tracks and block multiple intersections, with over a hundred vehicles steady burning gas all around waiting for the train to fucking move? 2 weeks ago:
In my state, train companies are fined if they block a crossing more than 10 minutes during the day or 15 minutes at night. But every so often we have to remind local politicians that those regs need to be upheld.
To answer your question directly, Diesel locomotives are actually Diesel generators that drive electric motors. When they’re stopped they cycle down the generators to a minimal count to maintain power. They’re more efficient in general because the engines are generally running at their peak efficiency RPMs (to drive gennies instead of the wheels). Unlike trucks that are rarely running at peak efficiency RPMs and will burn extra dirty at idle.

First advice, do your coke in the car.
- Comment on What is the probability that the atoms that I am made of once formed someone's penis? 2 weeks ago:
The water in whatever you’re drinking today was once dinosaur urine. You gotta make peace with that sooner or later.

The glass is oversized.
- Comment on Someone tell the world to slowdown so I can catch up to the events of the previous 12 hours properly 3 weeks ago:
He was in a Tesla, so the “driver attentiveness camera” would have recorded the whole thing.
- Comment on Someone tell the world to slowdown so I can catch up to the events of the previous 12 hours properly 3 weeks ago:
The quaruple amputee professions cornhole player shot someone while in his Tesla. So the real takeaway from that story is the professional cornholing pays (at least) electric car money.
- Comment on It made it interesting when they started with a name and not a number 3 weeks ago:
At least in my school, the Simpson’s started us spelling phone numbers with letters again in the 90s. We were “Yuka 2…”
That doesn’t make me not old though.
- Comment on I'm completely serious 3 weeks ago:
Just off shore of Cannon Beach, Oregon. A bike ride away from the Goondocks
- Comment on I rember! 3 weeks ago:
I hate and am not at all surprised that that truck has an Oregon plate. But at least the park as well as they spell.
- Comment on I'm completely serious 3 weeks ago:
I’ve seen Haystack Rock many times. So I’ve got that goin for me, which is nice.

We must be close to the sort of flexible eink display that will finally make Rorschach’s mask a thing.

- Comment on This happen to anyone else? 4 weeks ago:
I’m the VP who actually knows how the things work. So after I solve your problem I:
Write the instructions in an email for the 4th time and send it to everyone involved (your name was probably in CC list too, sorry about that)
Double check the internal documentation and add a bit about windows update going rogue
Notice the logs say I’m the only person to ever look at this doc
Send a second email about reading our documentation (now you’re also in the BCC list somehow, sorry about that)
Get a text from my wife to see if I’ve left work yet
Email our Microsoft rep and CC IT to chastise them about the update but also to see if this violates our SLA so we can get some credits
Check on the status of the SSO epic, since none of this would have happened if that had gotten finished in Q1 '22 like it was supposed to
See no one has been assigned to any tickets in that epic since the last time something like this happened 15 months ago
Spend 10 minutes daydreaming about opening a bike rental shop in Amsterdam
Email the DoE about making sure the SSO epic ends up as an OKR in Q3

This is like 101 stuff. You quickly learn to keep your cyanide in a false tooth and leave your cold dead heart at home.
- Comment on Hrmmm... 4 weeks ago:
France only stopped using the guillotine for capital punishment 50 years ago. I’m guessing there is some basement somewhere full of still maintained “prison equipment”

Bird leaf is less upsetting than tree feather.

I haven’t found the cleavage mods for KSP… yet.
- Comment on Streaming didnt exist in 1970 5 weeks ago:
57 years ago (1969) meant the only tapes were audio (8-tracks, reel to reel, and some cassette tapes), and those were just starting to become popular because Dolby (released in '65) was starting to be used during mastering to reduce tape hiss enough that they could be used for music.
Betamax was released in '75, VHS in '76.
- Comment on Do you have a vegan option? 5 weeks ago:
Alternatively, you can also opine about people not taking “A Modest Proposal” as seriously as they should, and the only failing you can see it limiting it to the children of the poor.
