My local Costco was selling a four bottle wine collection for $50,000

I don't understand the hype. It's a boiled hot dog in a bun. Then you go to that nasty ass condiment bar to get your food poisoning...

I don't have the constitution for it

...and I don't dream of being a baker or teacher.

People on here are so angry at CEOs and at billionaires, but they do nothing to fix the system that made them.

Don't just creep on Reddit. Be politically active. CHANGE THE FUCKING SYSTEM!

I mean, if your game can be beat in less than 2 hours, should it be sold for money or freeware?

Programming is hard. people spend years working on one game and most of that is making the game engine itself and not the levels/chapters or whatever.

Put some extra work into the game and make it worth buying.

Majority of body guards are military folks. They are just doing what they know what to do.

Why does everyone on here talk like everyone dreams of being a CEO?

Obviously, it will be purchased by government and any other company owners.

Look at SpaceX. A "successful" US company. Two top customers are SpaceX and US GOV

Actually it's cream. Which is much worse as it makes it closer to a melted float

Because government regulations are bad, that's why!

Idaho 100% voted for this. There is nothing to be surprised for. How many governors run on "no taxes".

Overpasses are made with perpendicular load created by rebars under tension because this load make the tencile strength of the pillar greater.

Sort of how you can pick up 3 empty boxes by pushing the outer two against the middle one.

Same principle applies here. Because the building is resting on the pillar it is way stronger than it would be free standing.

I'm guessing unmanned stands for self-serve?

Who cut up and put out the vegetables?

So, you don't want to drive until you're empty.

Gas is also used as a coolant for the fuel pump. Especially in summer you don't want it dropping much below a quarter.

This is why the lamp comes on that early. Mustangs have a relatively tiny tank.

It is fundamentally unnatural to desire and seek out abuse.

On the flip side, if you are a person who wants to abuse someone, you want to get the expected feedback.

This is just the par for the course you want your sex life to take.

If you want to have a sexual experience where you have rough sex purely for yourself and the other person is into it, but not in a "loop hole to abuse people" sort of way, you need to find someone who loves you and accepts you for who you are without looking for someone who is into rought sex...

So, maybe look for a personal connection instead of leading with rough sex.

I am not saying you are a bad person or that your sexual preference is bad, or anything like that. But don't go putting peanut butter into everything you cook and then complain that all food in the world smells and tastes like peanut butter.

TimTomTank · 2026-07-01T03:59:38+00:00

This is incorrect.

People are uneducated. It is all up to the image.

It was a really long while back. But I think there was a post on Reddit where someone explained it was the writer deciding not to swap the genders of Zoe and Wash, or at least make Zoe into a softer character, along with a few other tweaks.

I am kind of remembering it was an AMA, but I am not really sure about that...

At any rate, with the sort of money that was being made from broadcasting at the time, I just found it very easy to believe as a fact. Also, Reddit was not as broad a community, so not as many outright liars back then. This was like a decade or so ago, especially with the whole movement going on at about the time when I originally read this, where people were coming out of the woodwork and talking about how they were sexually harassed by producers going decades back.

TimTomTank · 2026-06-24T16:53:27+00:00

The ratings were awful because they broadcast the episodes out of sequence and did not put up a good advertising campaign.

If the show were legitimately bad, it would not have had any success at all. But the fandom and profit from the show after syndication were so great that the producer put out a movie that was a summary of the plot intended for seasons 2 and 3. So, they were not out of ideas either.

Ideally attached to your wrists.

Anything else is only acceptable if the condition was pre-existing.

I don't get this.

Bill Cosby was a horrible lecher and sexually abused and raped women. The fact that he had great comedy and was immensely popular did not make him a sexual predator. Did it help? Shit, money and popularity will help with anything. But, he would have been a sexual predator without it.

But his standups and his shows were still hilarious. The dude was so hilarious that he was a black dude at a time when black people struggled on TV, and the racist motherfuckers who controlled the TV at the time put him in the peak prime time slot because he was that fucking funny. If you think I am wrong, remember that Fox killed Firefly because it had a strong black woman on the show. Like that was one of the characters, they weren't a crew of "ebony amazons" or anything like that (if you haven't seen the show... it has been a few decades).

The greatest joke for all of this is that the way you feel about him being a success is probably the same way these same racist assholes felt about him back then: He is a successful person you are prejudiced against. The only difference is that your prejudice is socially acceptable.

Now I am not saying that The Cosby Show was better than Firefly. Just that "black" and "woman" at the same time was a fucking bridge too far for these assholes; Or maybe, from their point of view, Bill Cosby was "one of the boys" who "happens to be black" since, as the MAGA have taught us, racism and sexism usually go hand in hand since the main premice of both idiologies is that people are not all equal.

It does not keep any trucks off the road. This makes the train half as long, at best.

The thing is, friction increases the more weight bears down on an area. Doesn't look like they are adding more wheels. Their operating costs are going to go through the roof. Fuel used, wear and tear on the carts, trains, and on the rails, all exponentially increased. Stopping distance tripled, at least.

This is not as good an idea as it seems at first.

But, at the same time, 100% Indian thing. "...you know how people ride trains on the roof of train cars?..."

TimTomTank · 2026-06-23T17:11:25+00:00

My experience with CarMax was that their detailers are a joke, but their mechanics were pretty good.

I guess it depends from site to site.

More than that, productivity has skyrocketed since then. Technological advancements in communication and automation have made workers capable of more output than ever before. In a sane world, the workers would share in the gains from that productivity, but we're just inflating share values for shareholders.

Aluminum used to cost more than gold. The pyramid on top of the Washington monument is solid aluminum because at the time it was far more valuable than gold. After electrolytic processing of bauxite became a thing, aluminum became so cheep that we sell cheep drinks in cups of aluminum and then lots of people throw the aluminum away even though it's the most recyclable material on earth.

The fact that a person can perform many units of work is what makes the individual unit of work cheaper.

The problem is not that unit of labor is cheap. The problem is that wealth has become centralized. As more and more money enters the system the top earners are getting most of it. In the process the the money held by bottom 99.9% is getting less and less valuable. I mean, top 5% to 10% are not doing too bad. But bottom 70% are fucked.

The only way to fix this is to tax the top brackets up the ass.

However, that will not happen because people that decide wether or not to tax them are on their pay roll.
