TIL about the Kinsey scale. It would appear that yeah, I'm definitely a 0 by the description.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. I've heard people say they "always knew they were gay" and "they were born in the wrong body." And it was things that were just natural.

That's the only way I can describe it. I'm attracted to women. I've always known that, and no matter how hard I try, it's impossible to imagine non-women to be sexually (and romantically) attractive.

Like there's just something there that stops it going any further. Like, hell, a woman that visually has a body that can indisputably only be a woman but then talks with a baritone voice it's instant off (there's several comedies where this sort of character is used).

What's cool though is that if I'm that sure about myself, there is no doubt in my mind that other people know what their attractions are, and there is no reason for anyone to doubt a person's (honest) attractions.

Where's all the people complaining about the lack of people trying to start stuff with feds?

Almost like fighting the way they want to be fought doesn't accomplish Jack and shit.

Well, anything that is made of something that melts below 2500-4500 C for starters.

If your imagination is having a tough time figuring out how to deliver it, I recommend watching some videos out of Ukraine. As far as practicality, I'll refer you to WWII sabotage tricks.

The story of being hit on by a celebrity would be plenty enough for me.

Not explosives. Too risky, too uncontrolled. Too much debris. Risk of drone leaving too much evidence behind to track. When stamping out cancer: precision when possible. Technology if necessary. Chemotherapy last.

These concentration camps are tumors, caused by an already widespread cancer, that is extremely slow to kill, but very resistant to chemo. The turmors can be excized to lengthen and improve the patient's life by small amounts.

A sandwich bag of aluminum and rust with a magnesium starter will melt through 4 inches of steel.

I'm maybe an idiot. But like, could I start a produce garden, and get like a family to tend to it?

That way I can keep them shelter and fed, and they're free to do other work (probably much better paid) so they could get established on their own (as long as they came back to do the gardening I guess,)

So interesting thing here: both groups were aroused at heterosexual and lesbian stimuli.

The homophobic ones responded to the homosexual stimuli.

The guys were bi. Sort of explains why they argue "everyone chooses to be gay or straight." Because they have decided they have to.

This also explains the more-frequent-than-i-enjoy conversation about how "no, there really isn't a celebrity I'd go gay for."

The meme is "science guy doing science"

The joke is that the DC in "Washington DC" also stands for "Direct Current." Direct Current is usually stable in a circuit.

What our Punny scientist did is make Washington "Alternating Current." By creating an oscillating image of the Washington DC buildings.

It's a very funny shitpost for electronic nerds.

Dont engage the gestapo. That is the only way they can fight, through confrontation. Bullets, fists, crowd control.

Get a propane torch, you know for some light plumbing.

Always have an angle grinder, these things can cut steel, but are also useful for shaving down rusted iron bars and aluminum. Keep these separated for safety reasons.

Also, if you need something very bright and very hot, magnesium strips can be ignited by the above mentioned torch. Don't do this near that dust you made.

Seriously don't. That kind of reaction, depending on the amount, will melt through solid steel.

Ok so. How has no one taken a drone out to this facility and gotten a recording of the entire exterior of it?

Because based on what I've seen, a couple of guys with bolt cutters could do some serious damage to it.

Hell, have we learned nothing from Ukraine? Get some cheap ass FPV drones to land with strips of thermite?

Like I'm 1.5k miles from where it is, so that's a bit of a problem for me. But how is there no one in Florida capable of this kind of thinking?

It's like everyone completely has no idea what "sabotage" is, and that you don't need to hurt people to defeat a regime.

258,000,000. Say it out loud Rachel Ray. The people need to know that they are being targeted.

Choom, you gotta remember any Edgerunner know they're gonna flatline young.

Most people get chipped to perform their job, which is basically to barely survive a corpo life. Some have chrome for medical reasons. Most people don't wanna be a chrome jock anyway, with cyberpsychosis and all.

Also, ripperdocs are the closest thing to medical attention proles can afford. And I suspect with the jack they make they can afford actual medical care.

 

Is anyone aware of any FOSS browser replacement projects? Being a "full stack dev" (feels like a false skill set most of the time) I'm at this point where there are easily enough of us who have struggled with implementing web apps in the various frameworks and tools that essentially all boil down to JavaScript, HTML and CSS.

There's nothing wrong with them individually, but with modern languages and hardware we should be able to make something better. At least in a way to encourage adoption of something better, and I want to contribute to it.

 
 

As y'all know, shit be going down in the US. And while I'm all for staying and fighting, my son comes first. I'm pretty familiar with Canadian culture, and my state borders y'all. I have an uncle from there Tok (just don't know where).

  1. I know it's super expensive, but if I had to guess thats based on population?

  2. I've got 12 years experience doing software development, Devops, system engineering, device engineering, with a BA in Computer Engineering. Are there certain companies to avoid? Certain companies/locations to check out? Salary isn't nearly as important as being able to afford living.

  3. I know some French and I am working on more. Is this helpful?

  4. Also, I need a bit of a kickstart to understanding the political landscape. We'll start with I'm pro-choice, an Ally, anti-gun, support democracy and love the ranked choice system, and subsidized healthcare. Taxes and the government work for the people.

  5. Work commutes? I've done hour long commutes, I've done bus commutes, Ive walked to work, driven, and remote, just need to know what to expect.

  6. I already say sorry for everything, any other cultural norms I should know about?

  7. Is it too obvious I'm panicked?

 

3 times with the same Llama, that makes it officially a shitpost right

 
 

Credit goes to my kid for unknowingly creating this masterpiece

 

Why is there a skinny scary looking kid dancing and laughing

Ever since I was a kid my dreams have been crazy as hell. Last night, I had a dream where I was dropping my kid off at school, but there were people on both sides of the road standing waiting for a wedding. I see the couple and nope right out. Turning around a curb, suddenly I was in a fucking baseball stadium and rows of seats cut me off. I had to get home so I got out of my car? I'm walking down the stairs when I hear "oh, there it is!" I look up where the person was pointing to the sky. I see some rocket like thing, and assumed it was fireworks. It stopped, I hear three dreaded bomb falling noise, and then it slams into a seat a few rows down from the wedding. I hit the deck because I don't want to die. But instead of exploding it sprays enough glitter throughout the stadium I ended up with a mouth full. Then I get out of there, call my mom, explained what happened, head to their house which is now a bunker in new York City and they refuse to believe what I went through. Then I woke up.
