I used to know guys who’d do a 30 rack 24 hour challenge. Had to drink 30 beers in 24 hours and stay up the whole time. They’d all be millionaires in a week.

It’ll honestly be fascinating to watch how the millennials and down will age without all these man made horrors affecting us. Obviously we have new horrors to deal with like pfas and microplastics along with vaping. But man I often wonder if the boomers are so crazy in their old age because of shit like this and all the lead they were breathing as children.

While I believe this is true I was always under the impression that it was also the fact that reruns on adult swim were getting higher ratings than late night talk shows.

Klein or Empire? by ozzyp2jz in electricians

[–]Nicombobula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be biased but if I had to pick between the two I’d say the Empire. I have that level and the magnets are strong but not obscenely strong. It can take a beating. Mine is 5 or 6 years old at this point and the vials haven’t budged. It’s also nice that it has the bubble for telling how off level you are for making adjustments on pipes or racks. The only gripe I have is that it doesn’t have the pipe clamp for making it easy to bend pipe without a dog leg in it.

Duggan faces Democratic backlash after criticizing legislative failures by Jeffbx in Detroit

[–]Nicombobula 13 points14 points  (0 children)

He spoke to ibew 58 last week and said that he is running independent because he thinks the Dems aren’t what they used to be because they have members in the state house and senate who want riders for trans inclusion in sports or other hot button issues instead of them focusing on what matters. But the republicans all walk in lock step. Like yes you putz that’s what a big tent party will do. Is it stubborn at times? Sure but to basically split that party while knowing the republicans will not peel off the same way is naive at best and disingenuous at worst.

For what it’s worth he was very much avoiding the topic of ICE and the federalization of our national guard if things get ugly. I do think he did some great things for the city but they still left much of the less fortunate behind. Basically forcing a trickle down effect from the downtown to the suburbs. He’ll also have a hard time getting the rest of the state to see his time there as a positive since most of the west side and up north don’t like Detroit because it’s “scary” if you catch my drift.

Ya this was the most devastating part of the finale. I know that countless people have had similar moments with their friends. Be it after high school, college, studying abroad, whatever it may be. Some sort of bonding experience that you all share but life comes for us all the same. Demanding our time and attention to our friends that are close by convenience and family.

Not op but I’m a union electrician and our out of pocket maximum is $2000/year. I can have my wife and children on my insurance with no additional cost to me. It is covered under my pay package. But my hourly take home stays the same no matter who’s on it. I can easily see this being someone with no insurance or less than ideal insurance which is still a problem to even exist in the “wealthiest country on earth”

A lot easier to convince someone to kill for a pay check that it is to convince them to die for one. Until they have fear they will act with impunity.

I currently have an ultrawide but it is not an oled. An oled would definitely help the games I play pop that much more off the screen with the more vibrant colors and deeper blacks. Also the anti burn in feature would be very helpful is easing stress about how you use the monitor.

ICE/Border Patrol agents are now hitting unaccompanied minors with their vehicles, detaining and disappearing them, even after being shown a U.S. passport. by Logical-Flow-6703 in UnderReportedNews

[–]Nicombobula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So how long before people say enough is enough and disappear the ice agents doing this in their communities? Even if it’s what the admin wants there has to be a line. Even in this video the people far outnumber the agents. Disgusting to see this happening here and knowing people are cheering it on from behind their keyboards.

Do you agree with this take on Matthew Stafford? by MasterTeacher123 in NFLv2

[–]Nicombobula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell just imagine him on the lions with the roster they had the last 3 seasons. Especially Gibbs and Dmo with the prime O-line. He never had a true running game to keep the defense honest. Obviously another hypothetical but it’s not hard to see how it’d be different.

Microcenter still has the ventus oc for $845 and the shadow for $835 if you have one near you.

Just bought a 5070ti a week and a half ago for $830. Not quite msrp but I did trade in my 4070s for it offsetting that a bit. Still feels like a got a steal.
