It makes perfect sense when viewed from “the credit companies work with lenders to ensure your credit only rises if you’re constantly in more and more debt but still paying it like an obedient little wage slave”

Honey is acidic with a pH of around 4, so it technically corrodes metal if left for prolonged contact.

I make knives and I really want to let one sit in honey for a week to see if it gives it an acid wash.

I have other acids that work much quicker, but I’m having a bit of a giggle at making a pattern-welded steel butter knife and calling it my “Honey Knife”

Because we have knives already in our kitchens, and they don’t take up extra space in a drawer that would otherwise go to another more useful utensil.

Also my cheese slicers have all been cheap as shit and snap after a few months, and the nice heavy duty one I had with a replaceable wire got lost in the move earlier this year and they discontinued it and I’m sad.

I mean, half of my hammers have had their handles remade with whatever hardwood was closest. So I’m gonna go with those.

However, the most complex thing that I can repair with sourced parts would be either my truck, or my truck. I’ve had to fix it with “close enough” parts before, and I will fix it until the frame rusts (which given Northern states and salted roads probably won’t be more than a few more years)

There’s a smattering of electronics that I’ve seen mentioned multiple times as well.

One thing that is theoretically repairable, but is hard to find parts for, my washing machine. It’s a old 50s model with a lever to engage the motor, a roller on top to squeeze water out, and a simple steel gear system to drive everything. I should be able to open it up with a crescent wrench and flat head screwdriver, but I doubt I will ever be able to find ready-made parts (I have looked briefly when I thought I had a problem with it that sorted itself) but I might be able to bodge some things together if needed.

Half the time when you see someone walking around with the wrong amount of pips, it’s just delicious street corn

And the Internet didn’t exist back than in the sense that there was no real yt, twitter or Facebook yet.

Damn, what the fuck was I using to talk to random people about rc stuff and music and shit? CLEARLY it wasn’t the internet, as that didn’t exist before facebook and youtube blessed the world with their presence.

Gladaed, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

I mean, you’re wrong about the intro, but ENT still gets a HELL YEAH from me.

(the intro is a jam, but it’s so out of place for me I can’t enjoy it while binging, I usually listen to it in the car a few times while watching the show)

Understandable.

It’s a fairly middle-of-the-road, while being catchy and therefore played all over the place.

I’ve felt similar about a lot of popular songs in recent years. They just feel bland, but some parts still get stuck in my head every so often.

I lost my grandmother and my sister is currently in treatment, both my parents are showing symptoms but don’t have money for Healthcare and refuse to go into medical debt. I myself am sitting on top of a handful of symptoms I’m willfully ignoring hoping they’ll go away.

It is a heartwarming post.

Just seems like a weird place to be negative.

Honestly I can go 3 days without playing Rimworld and I’ve completely forgotten what was happening, and half of my mods are unfamiliar again so I have to start over.

I was ranked in the top 10 for pistol kills in modern warfare 3 for over a year and a half.

Then I lost interest in fps games for a few months. Tried to come back and play with some friends, and completely sucked ass.

I saw a post asking the same thing the day I joined lemmy dot world with my first account.

That was a couple years ago now. I think I’m on my third instance?

Smeagol/Gollum wasn’t quite a hobbit, according to Tolkien.

So either way, no evil hobbits.

Even Lobelia Sackville-Baggins.

Flour + water = hardtack

clack clack

:D

To me it’s felt more like “look at me I’m so unique”

“are corporations whose sole purpose is to extract as much money from the masses as possible with no thoughts to anything else up to and including destroying the house it occupies in order to maximize profits to blame for the world around us? Or is it those dirty fucking people with all their bad gross nasty purchasing of the things the corporation shoves down their throats?”

I’m sorry but did a CEO write this?

“THIS IS THE FUTURE UNDER SOCIALISM!!!”

literally a picture of the current world under capitalism, usually in the same country or one of similar quality of living

On one hand, I have adhd and depression, and my parents definitely have at least depression. So I’m used to messes everywhere up to and including not seeing the floor for a week or more at a time.

On the other hand, I feel bad when someone gets in my car and I have to move one or two items off the seat.

On one hand, I have a coworker who clearly angrily scraped his trump stickers off the tailgate, and on the other, I have a coworker who straight up held a nazi salute with an audible “heil” when he started talking about his favorite band, Rammstein.

Now I don’t know anything about Rammstein and their political views in general, but I’ve known a few Germans in my time and they all held very strong (negative) views on the nazi regime.

Most coworkers have stopped talking about politics and such in general during breaks though.

Turns out “market forces” was just the heavy metal poisoning talking, they were just hallucinating magical economics.

Lead in gasoline and household products really fucked with some generations, hard.
