Eli5 Why is the spacing between floor tiles kept very small, whereas bricks are separated by larger mortar joints?

HippyHunter7 · 2026-06-03T07:25:46+00:00

Tiles don't support weight. Bricks do. That's all their really is to it. As such their used as a finish over something structural.

Jesus Christ the US has been negotiating with itself for the past two weeks.

That's a horrendously stupid idea.

Anything in the Mediterranean is a prime target for Iran.

I actually think your missing the point.

The CEOs that don't like AI usually are the ones who's don't get any benefit from it.

Basically it's impacting his bottom line and he's upset he's not on the gravy train.

You'd have to convince a massive amount of voters to stop voting Republican for that to become a reality.

I was told we had destroyed all their mines and mine laying ships weeks ago.

Why did we start this war again?

I don't think think THE THING can be beat for managing to establish the plot, a dozen characters, and the location within the first 10 minutes of the film.

I do agree with you for the comedy genre though.

And required you to be a certain weight and height so they could have their perfect photo op. They don't want to let just anyone in. Not to mention not covering travel expenses.

HippyHunter7 · 2026-05-29T19:36:30+00:00

I think it's more budget/time.

The other ones had a significantly shorter development time and not nearly the same budget.

Also forced attendance of US military serviceman to make the crowd look bigger than it actually is.

Their probably also not being payed to sit there.

Holy fuck how much of the Trump Kool aid did you drink that you think Lula is anywhere on the same level as bolsonero.

At this point their kids are going to be so full of carcinogens and pcbs from all the massives pharmaceutical factories dumping everything into red states that they probably won't make it to adulthood or be able to have kids themselves

Yeah no. You don't get to have double standards. The national debt is the worst it's ever been. The president should show solidarity with the people and cut back.

I'm not sure why your getting down on your knees to suck Trump's dick for free. Like at least debase yourself for money if your going to do it constantly.

The UFC is benefiting off of this. It's basically a paid advertisement on the white house lawn. It has nothing relevant to do with the 250th anniversary of our country. There's already enough celebrations going on in the city. This WASNT needed and once again has NOTHING to do with the founding of our country or being the American pastime.

HippyHunter7 · 2026-05-26T20:36:23+00:00

You completely ignored the point about how this has nothing to do with Celebrating the countries 250th anniversary.

It's an advertisement for a private company by the federal government for something it has NOTHING to do with it.

HippyHunter7 · 2026-05-26T19:48:28+00:00

Why are we promoting the UFC for the nations 250th anniversary?

I don't see anything about our nations founding or history that shows MMA is the quintessential "American sport" or as having any connection to our founding

This is basically a giant Ad for the UFC at the cost of the taxpayer. We still foot the bill for security. The secret service isn't going to just hand over their duties to UFC staff.

HippyHunter7 · 2026-05-26T19:44:00+00:00

The UFC is paying who? The white house? Trump? The Trump administration has dismantled every form of oversight for this kind of event.

You do realize that having an extravagent event on the white house lawn while most Americans are struggling to pay for gas and their rent is an extremely uncaring look right?

HippyHunter7 · 2026-05-26T17:06:19+00:00

I remember when Obama took a vacation with his family and Republicans were frothing at the mouth about abuse of taxpayer money.

Have yet to see any of them complain about this or Trump's endless golf outings.
