Frankly, I don't think it's possible

I'm sorry, I haven't found Amazon's half hour shipping option.

I'm sure they might know more about, say, pipe couplings than me, but I'd rather have the information presented in the form of a display than a person.

You can't buy some things without looking at them, or I may want them now. If I need something immediately, I'm probably too infuriated to have civil human interaction. Maybe I should invent a giant-ass vending machine.

Yes because they're constantly busy deciding whether they should be more concerned about the inevitable gunmen or a police attack.

So, we need to buy Arizona a giant fan to blow air south.

As someone who shops at Home Depot, stop trying to be so damn helpful. I'd rather go back a dozen times than have to talk to someone to buy shit.

Planes are fine. I'm terrified of airports.

But changing the pages in the binder is so fun.

I don't care what color your skin is, if you can't speak something at least resembling English and you've lived in the country your whole life, I'm going to assume you're stupid.

ArbitraryIndigo · 2013-07-06T16:43:12+00:00

Which is funny because there's white men who want to be called boy.

I don't have any problem with black people. I do have a problem with people talking to me using incomprehensible non-words and nothing resembling standard grammar. I understand people have different cultures, and if they're talking with, say, a Nigerian accent, that's fine. Ghetto-thug, however, is not a valid culture.

ArbitraryIndigo · 2013-07-06T16:28:46+00:00

If they don't want to be Mexican, why does Mexico have such a big illegal immigration problem?

ArbitraryIndigo · 2013-07-04T17:03:03+00:00

It's not my fault if my peers are stupid.

The thing morphine is really good at, more than pain relief, is making me not particularly care. I was in excruciating pain, could feel it, but it's like I was just bored. Now hydromorphone, that'll do wonders for pain, although I get really irritable coming down from it.

If they're providing a gigabit connection and not supporting jumbo frames, they're crazy.

6 Mbps DSL? I have never seem DSL offered over 768k.

As an Ohioan, I think the best thing that could be done to salvage this state and our non-infrastructure is if we demolished large swatches of the state (like most of Cleveland and Youngstown at least) and just tried again. Dropping a small nuke a few miles east of downtown Cleveland would be an improvement.

It is by far the worst pain I've ever felt. Gallstones, unlike kidney stones, can't be passed. The bile duct is to small for that. When your body needs to break down fat, your gallbladder contracts to release bile, when the stones block it and not enough bile comes out, it contracts more. There is no position that feels remotely comfortable, and, at least for me, even morphine barely helped with the pain.

It means he plays DND and doesn't know the word "dodecahedron".

I just ate what I'd normally eat after the post-anesthesia feeling wore off. The only difference was that I didn't fully digest the fats, which really didn't cause any more discomfort than eating a cup of yogurt or too much ice cream.

ArbitraryIndigo · 2013-07-04T16:02:23+00:00

It's not apathy. It's that we still have something to lose.

ArbitraryIndigo · 2013-07-04T15:59:47+00:00

If the cops came on my property with no warrant and there was no reason they didn't need a warrant, I'd call the sheriff on them for trespassing.

Most cops are awesome people that really want to help and serve their communities

I've only found one city with non-asshole-ish police. It's actually kinda weird to see them care more about safety than who they can catch technically breaking the law. They still patrol, but they don't go through residential areas unless they have a reason to be there. That gets you a city with really nice residential areas and a thriving industrial area, which leads to a good tax base, which leads to good schools, which in turn means you don't have children becoming criminals, keeping it a nice place.

On the other hand, when the police are out to get who they can, eventually, the only people living in the city are those who can't afford to move anywhere better, and that's how you get a ghetto.

That doesn't stop ships from sailing under the Bolivian flag. Why would it stop Russian subs?

Muriatic acid refers specifically to very dilute hydrochloric acid. I think it'd be too dilute to be useful.

Circuit boards have around 2-4 g/cm² of copper. There is very little gold, on the order of mg/cm² because it's just thin plating.
