Ignorance is bliss.

They have become that which they hated.

Treating Gaza like an open air extermination camp and even branding them the way prisoners were tattooed in German camps.

My music is a compost pile. All the new stuff I listen to is on top and it gets listened to on repeat and the music is less engaging the further down the stack it goes, even though it was on repeat when it was fresh. Stuff at the bottom of the list may only get played once in a year or even less.

My brain has changed a bit over time. I used to need that constant noise, it helped things flow. Now I prefer quiet. Noise breaks the flow.

I do this too, to keep them separate in my head. I get that they’re interchangeable.

No idea why the difference in price. I checked again and it still shows $340/ton on a UK site, another shows $335/ton, some higher for powders or carbide, some way lower for scrap.

Good thing I’m not an accountant

Let’s say that cube is 4.5’ a side. That’s 91.125 cu ft. Tungsten weighs 1,201.738 lb/cu ft. Which means the cube weighs 109,508.38 lb.

That’s an impressively sturdy floor.

Currently, tungsten is selling at about $340 USD/ton.

The block weighs 54.7542 tons.

So this is indeed a decent prize at $18,616 USD.

All you have to do to claim your prize is get it home.

Edit: corrected to a less whelming but still difficult to transport prize thanks to chiliedogg.

Yep. Agreed - except it is yet another avenue for monetization should it take hold. People keep acting like the fediverse is some kind of incorruptible platform.

The feeling when you physically notice your cold improving, you can breathe through both nostrils, and you don’t feel fatigued and sore anymore is an amazing feeling.

“Places I’ve been”

Colors in America, but not Alaska.

Guns are fun and make everything fear you. Fear = respect. Also, wildlife is yours to kill if you like.

Teaching children valuable life lessons early on.

It was often owner/managers that couldn’t stay the f out of the way of employees who knew what they were doing, didn’t have a menu that was cost- and manpower-effective, or didn’t get rid of bad employees.

The show was obviously edited for effect, but IIRC the businesses were legit. They were usually on their last financial “leg”, and owners would give up.

Virtually all the failures otherwise were because the owner or management refused to follow Ramsay’s advice.

TBF, if someone tells you to chill, is your first response to double down on your first mistake?

Your comment looks only at temperature and skips past all the effects of said temperature. An unbelievably incomplete and willfully restricted view.

Where’s the ashtrays?

Also, this room looks like boredom. It’s all the nice furniture at a parent’s friend’s house that I would have to sit on as a kid while they chatted and I had nothing to do.

They got their Applebees. Does’t matter.

With a detour over some dead people.

Because there is a real effort by a government to prevent people millions of people from remembering.

I’ll give them a “partly right in spite of themselves” for sure.

My parents refused to use the self-checkout because “They take people’s jobs.”

They were hardcore republicans perfectly happy to make sure those jobs got paid shit.
