I don't pretend to be an expert on salt (though I have certainly listened to the testimony of experts on salt), but I do know there are different compounds that all fall under the general heading of "salt," despite some of them not being salt at all. And that heading is probably one coined by a layman like myself.

As far as whether the other compounds are responsible for corrosion the way tradition salt would be, I have no idea!

Probably salt on roads. Sea air kinda rots everything, salty roads just the bottom.

Hello fellow shithead. I am 37 now, I have two kids, and my biggest worry is identifying the shitty, stupid behaviors I had as a kid, and trying to find them in my own kids, and figuring out what, if anything, I can do to prevent them from making the stupid mistakes I made. They are not even close to 15 at this point, so I've got some years to prepare.

That's not today that I don't at least appreciate, just a little, what the OP is saying. I can't forget that my kids are humans with their own ideas. I don't want to stifle their creativity and their growth. But what they cannot possibly understand, and what I'm continuing to learn to this day, is just how big an impact some small decisions can have.

You've flown or you've flown in? Presumable the former, but I know people from where I'm from use flown to mean flown in. If you've only been airborne three times, and all in separate crafts, that's something special in and of itself.

First grade, they piled all the classes together, because it's 1993 and we only have one laserdisc player, and we need to watch a video on pollution. Main topics were acid rain and smog and that shit has been with me for 30 years, I will never forget it.

None of it happened while Ds had any modicum of control either. Bernie represents what the democratic party should be, not what it is and has been. They pivoted hard to the status quo and we are footing the bill.

Yeah, I don't sit and block traffic because I'm too lazy to find another spot. "Do unto others," you know? I don't like being made to move faster because you just need this spot.

EDIT: And hold up, you'll move your car and load it? So you will leave your groceries just in a cart, go and move your car to some further spot, and load it there? How is that at all the right thing to do? Where are you moving your car to, an empty spot? Like, one the person who's sitting there waiting could've parked their car?

I have people follow me to my car at the grocery store when they notice I'm in a good spot (there are other, less desirable spots available, mind you). I take my sweet time loading my bags make sure nothing will tip over in transit. And during the time I'm loading, sometimes I decide I need something from the adjacent liquor store.

I've never understood why people sit and wait for spots when there's spots available. Drive around. If someone is pulling out, sure, but don't watch people load their shit up.

I played hockey and was by no means good, but had a friend who was a good goalie, and said it was always tough with the less good players because you couldn't cheat them at all, because even they had no idea where the puck was going.

I think the point is you can't put a search term into a search engine and get results from some random Discord. No body is going to go trawling through Discords to then use the search function to potentially find information from it. Now, if chats were somehow archived and could then be searchable, different story, but I don't think that's what people using Discord want from Discord.

This post feels like more than just the privacy aspect. Every day I read about some connected devices going brick because they are no longer supported. Shit, my Roku 4 went brick because they need me to buy a Roku HD, and I suckered up. What're you going to do when your doors won't open because some company decides they don't want to support them, or worse they go under? I am not IT, but why would I want to come home from a day of answering tickets and have to reprogram some proprietary hardware so I can make dinner?

This is hilarious. God I miss how passive aggressive you could get with pictures with embedded links.

A technical disaster, but sure, I'll keep coming back. Can't wait to reminisce about the days when it was a technical disaster, though.

Also, posted from my PC, because doing anything on Jerboa has proven impossible.

Love to see it, and I want to see more of it. Anyone who did this absolutely deserves what they have coming to them.
