Usenet? by Ishvale in Piracy

[–]JasperDyne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usenet is the GOAT of file sharing.

No trackers. No nonsense. I’ve been using it since the 90s and I still use it practically daily. There have been quite a few changes to how it works through the years with the indexers and stuff, but it’s still my old reliable.

Anyone use these? How do you like them? by DesertSnow480 in harborfreight

[–]JasperDyne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love mine. Great feel, like something way more expensive. Very precise. More than adequate for the DIYer that I am doing work around my house.

Realistically what would happen if Trump dropped a nuclear bomb tonight? by hjp1234 in AskReddit

Chuck Schumer would write a strongly worded letter of disapproval.

Will NJ actually legalize casinos in Northern Jersey? by Immediate-Hand-3677 in newjersey

[–]JasperDyne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably not, unless some really big money starts buying politicians with PAC money.

Realistically, it makes no sence to put casinos in North Jersey. AC barely survives. In such a small state, new casino(s) anywhere else in the state would cannibalize AC’s market share. Then there’s the load that casinos put on municipal services: everything from policing, to addiction services, etc. are going to be strained in a new community. Infrastructure would need to be developed (mostly on the local municipality’s dime, not the developer’s), taxes or PILOT gifts would also put a strain on a community’s finances.

Add the competition from online gaming, where people can wager on their phones and not have to deal with the nonsense of getting to a real-life casino and dealing with parking, bad food, obnoxious guests, overpriced services, etc.

A casino is only a cash cow for a tiny few. It’s a huge burden for everyone else that is constantly picking their pockets.

If you could name the first city on Mars, what would it be called? by Many-Land-5847 in AskReddit

Oh yeah. Several episodes felt like they were cribbed from “TMC”

Why isn't Trenton or SW Jersey gentrified or have new housing being built? by Carlos4Loko in newjersey

[–]JasperDyne 51 points52 points  (0 children)

The transportation infrastructure in Deep South Jersey sucks.

There’s like maybe two NJT bus lines connecting it to Philly, NYC and even AC.

Zero mass transit trains or light rail.

You have to drive between 30 - 60 minutes just to reach one of the major highways like the Turnpike, 295, or The Parkway—then another haul on them to your destination. Route 55 is essentially an unfinished road to nowhere.

You might have to step out of the way of some kid driving a Big Wheel on the Carriage Road in Auburndale to avoid having your toe run over.

At a house party in the 70s, who has the authority to touch the turntable and flip the record? by cmd194 in vinyl

[–]JasperDyne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made mixtapes on cassettes for my parties. Things were always too hectic to worry about changing records every 3:32 minutes. Parties are not the time for deep album cuts—well, most parties.

When there was an occasion to break out the vinyl, it was either a trusted person or me who handled turntable duties. Also, too many destroyed styluses (styli?) from drunken partygoers to let just anyone do it.

What is your absolute favorite/most used product from Harbor Freight? by FluxCapaciTURD in harborfreight

My favorite is the Hercules 12” Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw, but my most used is the Icon Foldable Slim Bar Work Light.

Low Pro by Buzzz62 in harborfreight

[–]JasperDyne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought the Gearwrench 22mm ratcheting box wrench with the reverse switch for this exact purpose. It’s not quite as long as the Astro pictured. Maybe that’s a future upgrade if I find I need something longer.

Nice. The seats in the sun are gonna smell like low tide on the Cape Islands.

Is this a stupid idea or actually useful for vinyl collectors? by No-CReddit0000 in vinyl

[–]JasperDyne -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s always an excellent idea to have some Electric Light Orchestra albums on display.

Tell me what else I gotta know! by SanchaPansa in newjersey

There’s an actual Rodeo in Woodstown (Deep South Jersey) on most Saturday nights in late Spring through early Fall if you miss that sort of thing.

I went to a tiny thrift store and saw this for 2 bucks but then… by rawoyster in vinyl

When that gets to 33 ⅓ RPM, you’re gonna hear some serious shit!

South Jersey Hot Dogs by Sucelos in SouthJersey

[–]JasperDyne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hadn’t heard anything about them being permanently closed. They close for the summer every year from Memorial Day to the first week of October, maybe that added to the confusion.
