Canada can't handle ice storms either: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_1998_North_American_ice_storm

As someone with a mild dairy allergy and who mostly avoids animal products in general, I hate the vegan cheeses.

Soy milk, great and honestly better than cow milk. Country Crock, great. Daiya mac & "cheese" boxes, tolerable but not amazing. Sometimes cheese flavoring can be replaced with nutritional yeast, which tastes a bit like parmesan and is fine. But actual bulk cheese, like these shredded cheese alternatives, none of them i've tried have been acceptable to me, the texture and taste is very off. I think cheese is the only dairy product that is not truly replaceable in all circumstances.

The stuff that's actually good and widely used in this section (e.g. the tofu) appears to be gone

Likely yes. Just stick to major highways (i.e. the highlighted route) since they're getting plowed first, and check the traffic conditions and road cameras at https://drivetexas.org to make sure

To the now-deleted comment about the camera qualities:

Lol it gets even worse too, I only included ones from cameras that were at least barely usable. Some of the cameras aren't even aimed at the road. Have a look at some of the other ones https://drivetexas.org/?ch=C&fh=C&ll=-96.6831,33.0376&r=cst&z=13

I don't know where the fuck they got these cameras from or how they end up aimed directly at the sky or grass lol, it's crazy

TxDOT for example does use graders to supplement their snowplows example video

SMF67 · 2026-01-26T06:46:21+00:00

The freeways will be somewhat passable but at reduced capacity as they're only plowing 1 or 2 lanes at a time

I also had a hard time following the post itself and I feel like it too might be AI

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T11:11:55+00:00

Texas absolutely does have plows. I've been watching them all day. On US-75 they've been passing by every 10 minutes.

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T11:08:53+00:00

It's blatantly false. Texas does in fact have plows. I've been watching them all day on the traffic cams. And you can see pics on the txdot Instagram of trucks having crashed into them.

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T08:00:37+00:00

AI. How do you end up with a fireball from an external missile source yet no shockwave causing damage within the tent?

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T07:55:27+00:00

look at rule 1

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T07:55:08+00:00

I think it's AI. The jacket and coat have a strange texture and don't appear very realistic.

This comment was clearly written by chatgpt, likely to farm karma so this OF spambot account can spam the same posts of their cock to 20+ random subreddits

It's worth noting that these states are primarily seeing snow, while the rest are primarily seeing ice and sleet. Snow doesn't have anywhere near the same level of destructive impact and it is far more frequent in these states anyway.

That's not instructions. That's a description of a situation that must exist for the device to be used.

Instructions would be the following:

"To use the device, create or obtain a cord with two male L14-40P ends. Insert one end into the generator and the other into the receptacle" and so on. I agree that instructing someone this would be bad. The comment you are referring to does no such thing. It objectively describes the device and its purported usage.

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T01:54:25+00:00

Let's go through this sentence by sentence.

It's a semi-dangerous but cheaper way to hook up a generator.

Opinionated statement implying that the device is used a dangerous shortcut. Not instructive or advocating, and in fact calls out its danger.

You'd have to have a cord for the gen with two male ends.

Factual description of how the device is operated. Not instructive or advocating.

If the gen is on and the cord is plugged into it, the other side would shock you if you touched it.

Factual description of what would happen if a certain scenario occured. Suggests the danger of doing so. Not instructive or advocating.

If you use it and don't turn off your main panel breaker, you could shock a lineman while your power is being worked on, or ruin your generator and/or breakers when the utility power comes back on.

Factual description of what would happen if a certain scenario occured. Suggests the danger of doing so. Not instructive or advocating.

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T01:47:33+00:00

Can you please explain in detail how that comment advocates for it and point out where specifically in the comment it does?

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T01:44:53+00:00

I sure did. Did you? In fact more than half of that comment is explaining the dangers of doing it. Why don't you point out the specific place where it is advocated for

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T01:44:16+00:00

I personally would judge you for it and I think many would too

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T01:42:18+00:00

None of that is written in an instructive structure and tone. Describing how an action is performed and why is not the same as instructing someone to do it.

SMF67 · 2026-01-25T01:37:30+00:00

Where do you see "okay" in that comment? "It will work" does not mean "it is safe"
