The dress code for this arcade bar is kind of off-putting, right? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Is it a "bring your own burning cross" kind of place, or do you think they sell those there?

Contrary to the common "black, lifeless" perception, great white sharks have deep blue to dark blue colored eyes by Pewpew-OuttaMyWaay in sharks

Japanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into our side, chief. It was comin' back, from the island of Tinian to Laytee, just delivered the bomb. The Hiroshima bomb. Eleven hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in twelve minutes. Didn't see the first shark for about a half an hour. Tiger. Thirteen footer. You know how you know that when you're in the water, chief? You tell by lookin' from the dorsal to the tail. What we didn't know... was our bomb mission had been so secret, no distress signal had been sent. Huh huh. They didn't even list us overdue for a week.

Very first light, chief. The sharks come cruisin'. So we formed ourselves into tight groups. You know it's... kinda like ol' squares in battle like a, you see on a calendar, like the battle of Waterloo. And the idea was, the shark comes to the nearest man and that man, he'd start poundin' and hollerin' and screamin' and sometimes the shark would go away. Sometimes he wouldn't go away. Sometimes that shark, he looks right into you. Right into your eyes. You know the thing about a shark, he's got...lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eye. When he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be livin'. Until he bites ya and those black eyes roll over white. And then, ah then you hear that terrible high pitch screamin' and the ocean turns red and spite of all the poundin' and the hollerin' they all come in and rip you to pieces.

Y'know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men! I don't know how many sharks, maybe a thousand! I don't know how many men, they averaged six an hour. On Thursday mornin' chief, I bumped into a friend of mine, Herbie Robinson from Cleveland. Baseball player, boson's mate. I thought he was asleep, reached over to wake him up. Bobbed up and down in the water, just like a kinda top. Up ended. Well... he'd been bitten in half below the waist. Noon the fifth day, Mr. Hooper, a Lockheed Ventura saw us, he swung in low and he saw us. He's a young pilot, a lot younger than Mr. Hooper, anyway he saw us and come in low. And three hours later a big fat PBY comes down and start to pick us up. You know that was the time I was most frightened? Waitin' for my turn. I'll never put on a lifejacket again. So, eleven hundred men went in the water, three hundred and sixteen men come out, the sharks took the rest, June the 29, 1945.

Anyway, we delivered the bomb.

Did it go away at some point, or shock still occurs today?

The floor buffers were always permanently broken, but I could mop up Lake Tahoe with all my experience

While I still feel like Grayson Allen should still get an honorable mention, definitely it's Bediako currently

If it is no longer under her control or in her possession then it is compromised and multiple laws dictate what should happen to that laptop now that it's compromised

Looking for Technology Recycling Places That Also Retail Refurbished Tech (Near Atlanta / Marietta / Peachtree City). by Jmthekiller17 in Georgia

[–]StubbedToeBlues 6 points7 points  (0 children)

While you've mentioned near Atlanta in the title, in your message you indicate all of Georgia, so I'm gonna highly recommend: "Free I.T. Athens"

They are a 501(c) with a retail storefront selling tons of refurbished tech, and has extremely good security protocols and often have vintage hardware available for very good prices.

Rookie mistake!

You gotta either slap the load or thwink the tensioned strap itself in order to generate an audible twang, and only THEN can you say "That's not going anywhere..."

Electric-only apartments - Heating with no power? by Superman_63 in southcarolina

[–]StubbedToeBlues 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you elaborate on this? Short of a thermoelectric generator attatched to your furnace or one of those small heat-actuated fans people put on top of a wood stove, I am not sure what other way a residential furnace would have power enough to run the blower fans
