They skipped on the foundations and the ground was soft. The rest of the construction was fine or at least good enough to outlive the footings.
- Comment on Corporate media, owned by billionaires, refuse to recognize the wave of democratic socialism 3 days ago:
If I was approached in the NYC street by someone asking me how I felt about politics, I would not take the risk that they have my name and face already and want to put me in a oligarch’s database.

Can the people tracking the cash positively know the money didn’t get passed around a couple times before getting rescanned? The value of the tracking data drops rapidly as the uncertainty increases. That’s why they’re pushing for digital payment systems so much.

If you really, really needed to power a whole house, you could use one of those, but you need to turn off the main breaker and lock the door shut. If you have for foresight to get a male-to-male, you have the foresight to get an interconnect setup.

You don’t. You need an Interconnect and an “Inlet” port. You could use a male-to-male, but they’re illegal and dangerous to the line workers.

I don’t remember his name, but he got moved to the education department.

And somehow, everyone forget at on 9/11, Trump bragged about now having the larger building in NYC. That was a lie, but I digress.

Those types really love evil imagery.

They are hurting other people by teaching young boys that they can treat women like objects.

The one that looks like it went through a press.

I don’t think Tetsuya Yamagami used 3d printed parts. This has nothing to do with making things safe.

Man, I remember when Zuck wanted to put a banking feature on facebook, but that was a bridge too far for Americans at the time. Probably got the idea from a trip to China or something.
- Comment on You must have an internet connected smartphone to eat 3 days ago:
It is exceedingly difficult to track cash. It would require the cash’s serial number scanned at every transaction, which doesn’t happen.

Holly shirt, I’ll just stay home.

They made Jimmy Carter give up his peanut farm.

I need to figure out a way to fly a flag at double mast. Maybe a helium balloon?

Hit them with a “I wish for Trump what Trump wishes for his enemies.” They don’t really have a prepared response for that.

No fun, only missionary for the purpose of procreation… with the lights off.

The problem is, the alt-right is in control right now. Gotta deal with the problem in front of you.

I remember people citing AmericanMcGees’s Alice as a counter argument.
- Comment on Games with singleplayer campaigns that let me fight/kill nazis? 1 week ago:
Even by the standards of the time, it’s not very good. If you already have it, then try it. Otherwise, it’s cheap on GoG and I would still wait for a sale.
- Comment on Cancelled Quake 4 expansion gets surprise GitHub release after former XCOM 2 developer discovers it on an old hard drive: 'This essentially saved my life' 1 week ago:
I replay it every now and then as a part of my normal rotation. I still can never remember what the final boss is like. The mid game tower boss is much more memorable. The core problem with Q4 is it had an idenity crisis. It was trying to be a classic Quake game, a CoD-like and a Halo-like all at the same

It’s Daily Mail. Some scientist probably gave two options to fix things, either do better or suffer.
Earth’s human population will decline without direct action all on it’s own, one way or another. The alternative is the things you mentioned.

I just don’t want to come across as shilling any one brand and just posted one of the first overviews I found. I bought my metal cutting saws years ago for fab work, so I’m otherwise, speaking from experience.

Unbolting a broken post before putting a new one up is marginal effort. People should be using a variety of methods depending on the circumstances and to keep the authorities guessing.

Yes. Erode what’s left of their working class support base.

If you’re dressing up to take it down, you’re better off with wrenches to take it down properly. Everyone going to know what you’re doing cutting it in half. Make sure to wear electrical insulated gloves(also good for hiding finger prints), cap off the live wires with wire nuts and leave a traffic cone.

Drill a hole and spray a solvent into it to dissolve the plastic insulation.

I can’t tell what exactly he used in the circular saw, but if it’s a saw meant for cutting wood, you can only get away with cutting aluminum, not steel or anything else harder then aluminum. That’s fine in this use case though. If you do have a wood cutting saw, you’ll either want a blade for aluminum or a high tooth wood blade.
If they start using steel for their posts, you’ll want to upgrade to a saw and saw blade meant for steel. They make carbide blades for hard metals.

“Unlike France, we’re got going to give up our liberties for safety.”
I hope he’s being ironic with that one. The French are the first willing to burn things to the ground if the government starts encroaching on their rights.

It will still lead to jail time if you’re caught because they will want to make an example out of you. Might as well go for broke. At the very least, use spray paint.
