Musk’s influence. There’s no way they would choose a bottom-tier LLM otherwise.

Stretch against the cramped muscle, push hard, cramp dissolves instantly. Weight lifter taught me that 30 years ago, figured everyone knew!

Stretch against whatever muscle is cramping. It’s counter intuitive and sounds like it would hurt like hell. Instant relief.

Any Chinese name beginning with X. Took me awhile to figure out Nuyen as well.

I make my own black powder for shooting.

2 KNO3 + S + 3 C

Stump remover, sulfur, charcoal. Few bucks to make a kilo.

Yes, they were stand-ins for a fictional Eastern European/Russian country.

I can only smash the upvote button so hard, cut me some slack.

You would love a director named Tarantino. Guy named Jackson often stars in his films. Check him out!

Was that an honest question or rhetorical? :)

Again, with TWO meanings.

And that can be taken TWO different ways!

ISMO does this with “shit”.

So thankful English is my first language. What a damned nightmare of a lexicon.

“The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.” -James D. Nicoll

Love the ReStore! I live in a Habitat home and volunteered there with my ex as part of the program. Most fun I’ve ever hard in retail!

Went to only one thrift this weekend and they had an original IBM XT, with original monitor, for $200! Got the money in the bank, still unemployed. Still crying over that one. Maybe it’ll still be there when I score a job. Not many people in this town would be interested.

LOL WUT!? Never been anywhere that redneck and I live in the panhandle. Wonders never cease.

Reading how Rocky eats in Project Hail Mary got me thinking on that! I wonder if aliens would find our eating disgusting or if it’s the most common way to get energy. Pretty much every life form on Earth chews food with their face then shoves it down.

You now know how to instantly relieve a leg cramp, right?

That is EXACTLY what happened in the movie, nothing subtle about it.

OTOH, filming started almost a year before Trump was back in (02/24), but damn was the movie spot on for what’s happening now. Wonder how much they changed to fit the times. Couldn’t have been too much that late in the game? I know jack about Hollywood production.

Ears almost freak me out more. We can instantly, with no thought, tell where a sound is coming from, to a high resolution. Even behind us! All based on how fast and loud the signal hits our ears at different times. The speed of sound is right there with a slightly slow bullet. We can differentiate the “ping time” between one side of our skull on the other. Fuck me that’s wild!

Speaking of bullets, I can pick up the delay between firing something slow like a .45 or .22 and hitting a target a mere 40’ away. How?!

Mine does, redneck town, but it’s all hunting style rifles and shotguns, nothing tacticool. I won’t buy from big corpo, too big a pain. I just use guns.com for the most part.

What?! I’ve lived in gun happy states almost my whole life and have never seen guns sold in grocery stores. Walmart might be considered weird, but everywhere else is a sports store and a dedicated gun shop.
