The biggest crime against shared knowledge ever committed is photobucket fucking off with the pictures in every "how to fix this car problem" forum post.

I am an evangelist for these. I have a set of the aftershokz and I wear them like a watch, always on my head. I do a lot of work in different kinds of factories, forges, power plants, etc which are all places earplugs are required. No big deal with bone conducting headphones, I can listen to my podcasts while I work. A bonus too is the kind I ended up with can connect to two phones, so my work phone and personal phone don't need two different headsets. The only downside is when I have to take a flight somwhere they aren't really loud enough to fight the sound of the plane so you have to wear earplugs. But the upshot is people generally leave you alone if yer wearing earplugs which is nice. I grab handfuls of them from our customers anyways so it's double not a big deal.

Are we all forgetting that Boeing most likely had a witness testifying them executed in a parking lot a few weeks ago?

Sure wish if I had a 500 dollar speeding ticket I could just say "nah I'll give you 60 bucks"

It's not that we're not making profit, it's that we're not making ENOUGH profit.

This can only be a publicity stunt, and at that, he was too much of a puss to have an actual gun on him.

I don't blame the museum for calling the bomb squad. The fuel they put in those things is some real nasty toxic shit that if there were any trace left would be problematic. The whole "nuclear" part is the media being intentionally clickbaity.

The American car companies haven't exactly been stellar with regards to quality, reliability, and safety lately either.

Ahh yes, Big Bend, the tiny town where businesses fly "FUCK JOE BIDEN" flags. Surely this is place for adults with reasonable opinions.

At what point does this become, in itself, obstruction of justice?

Nuclear power in general.

I see this in a lot of places I do work:

Toolboxes covered in union stickers, AND Trump stickers...

I appreciated how the reddit app I used (relay) kept everything internal. I don't want all the links I open on this app opening in my browser and plugging up my history. I doubly appreciated how it would open YouTube links in an internal video player that wasn't linked to my YouTube account in any way. This is a must have for me to prevent my YouTube "algorithm" from getting any ideas. For example, I watch a video about "X" and now my whole feed is suggesting I watch more videos about whatever "X" was.
