“fuck you im gonna die before the ramifications for my actions harm anyone”
That makes for bad gift giving imo because then they could’ve just gone out and bought something for themselves.
I do the same thing and I am lauded within my family as an excellent gift giver.
I agree with his take on the apple vr shit, but fuck nazi notch.
That’s only because the US and other first world countries have shied away from mining rare earth elements because it is traditionally a very dirty and polluting industry. So poor and developing countries did it their way… with slavery and incredibly ecologically damaging techniques.
New techniques are being developed in the US that solve those problems. It originally wasn’t worth the effort because we had plenty of lithium to make 18V drill batteries. Since BEVs have proven to be capable and desireable over the last decade, critical material supplies just didn’t keep up and those new techniques were just a twinkle in the eye of some smart people.
If you’d like to learn more about how we can completely avoid the slavery and pollution problems related to getting lithium, take a look at the Salton Sea enhanced geothermal projects. I am personally going to invest a portion of my life savings in that company if given the opportunity.
JFC more of this? I really wish the FCC had the teeth to prevent this shit.

There are at least two different apps. Which one? This one?
OK found it.
https://github.com/jameskokoska/Cashew It does have iOS and Android apps available.
They REALLY need to rename. That first link stole their name and they collect and sell your data.
Uhg. I watched an episode of The Curse when my wife found it. I am convinced that the curse is actually the entire show - they’re cursing the audience.
Yeah, the region in question was meant to be broad since this is a pretty specific and peculiar subject.
I think Reno, Nevada does some similar antics. And possibly Atlantic City, NJ. All of them have local economies based on casinos (and historically, organized crime).
Only so many people want to hear him talk.
My solution: peer pressure. Get your smoking buddy to quit with you. Just go cold turkey - but tapering down a bit before hand might help. Don’t use gum. Don’t use drugs or patches. Just fucking quit. Statistics show that people who use quitting aids like vapes, gum, patches, drugs, etc, fail far more often than people who just go cold turkey.
So cold turkey with a friend. Hold each other accountable. Use each other as a support group. If they fail, sympathize with them but guilt trip them into quitting again so they can be your quit buddy.
That’s excellent advice. It’s like training a dog - your brain stops associating the release of dopamine with cigarettes after a few bad experiences,
Brushing your tongue is like using a broom to sweep leaves from a grassy lawn while this is like using a rake.
Your company is exploiting you.
OK now keep up with me:
I agree with your sentiment. But I don’t fault the party itself for having grown to cover so much turf that there is room for conservatives. I don’t like that and I wish it would fragment and support multiple parties - but alas FPTP.
It’s because the overton window has shifted so much that the Democrats only have to give scraps to workers and that is still the best those workers will get from any viable political party. It’s better than what the Republicans are offering which is getting financially pissed on or literally shot.
I think this post begs the question: What is everyone’s private trackers? Also let me in.
I started to do it to keep the dog dirt out of my sheets. It’s the first time I have ever done this in my life. I now feel like an adult.
