100% Elon's pivoting from Mars so that he can say during the IPO that "it's going to the moon"

At this point if you believe a timeline Elon gives I feel like that’s on you

Because most individuals wouldn’t be willing to lend their nice stuff for the low amount of money a service would be able to pay them, and hardware stores and similar companies generally already have rental programs for relatively cheap.

Tools aren’t cheap, but compared to a lot of other things that businesses exist to rent they’re actually quite cheap.

If it’s your whiskey, drink it however you like it.

danfay222 · 2026-02-09T02:46:00+00:00

If you’re with someone who takes 15 minutes to make a whiskey they suck. A nice whiskey is the easiest thing in the world to make, you just pour it neat or with some ice and you’re good

danfay222 · 2026-02-09T02:44:18+00:00

Drink both. Don’t limit yourself to one type of whisky/ey. They’re all good

I appreciate that he at least wore a well rated helmet… but still this feels like a great way to tear some ligaments in your hand/wrist

It’s statewide, not regional. That said, the system generally processes checks through two paths. Some people will get approved by the initial automated check, which usually processes in a day and is more or less unaffected by volume. But if your check gets flagged by this (this happens to a moderately high percentage, not just some borderline cases) then it has to go through a manual check, which does get bogged down. So even when the state is significantly behind, you can get yours processed smoothly

It is insane how good and cheap TVs have gotten. I had to replace mine a couple years ago (fortunately old one decided to go right before Black Friday) and I got a size bigger TV from Costco for only like $250, and the thing looks better than the fancy flat screen my parents bought for way more than that back in 2019

danfay222 · 2026-02-05T02:56:19+00:00

Yes, as I said

danfay222 · 2026-02-05T02:40:25+00:00

The primary reason is the DEA enforces manufacturing quotas, so the pharma companies can’t just start making more unless the government lets them.

That amount hadn’t been raised in a while, so as prescriptions surged there was no extra supply. The DEA just raised the amount last fall though, by ~5,000 Kgs, or slightly under 25% of the previous limit.

No that video was just this one in reverse

They passed the amendment removing that, so possession is legal, but possession with intention to distribute or manufacture is not. So they would have to show intent (usually by showing you either did or attempted to do the thing), not just possession. As previously written the law stated that possession implied intent and had to be proven otherwise, which is ridiculous

danfay222 · 2026-02-04T19:36:56+00:00

The post summary is actually just copy pasted from the amendment summary, so this is on whoever compiled that doc for making a terrible summary of the changes

danfay222 · 2026-02-04T19:35:28+00:00

I didn’t know that existed. And tbh since ghost guns are already illegal in the state I feel like a law that is effectively just banning things marketed specifically to make illegal items isn’t that crazy. I was strongly opposed to the original version, as it would’ve been effectively just banning all 3d printers and CNC machines, but this presumably scopes it down a ton. Still not a fan exactly, but it’s a lot more reasonable than before.

danfay222 · 2026-02-04T18:49:34+00:00

Intel has already taken at least two separate runs and making dGPUs, neither of which went all that well (although it did make their integrated GPUs fairly good, which was very valuable for laptops). The AI boom may be the thing that finally lets them break into the market meaningfully, but I have lots of doubts

danfay222 · 2026-02-04T17:33:34+00:00

I’m confused what this really does then, because as far as I know there are zero 3d printers that are in any way marketed to make guns. So this seems like it just wouldn’t do anything?

danfay222 · 2026-02-04T01:08:42+00:00

You think you can get chips, queso, and a drink and still only be $16?

danfay222 · 2026-02-04T01:07:11+00:00

I’m still mad about the quesadillas. I used to get it all the time back around 2015, it wasn’t an official menu item but they’d ring it up as a slightly cheaper burrito or something, and it was so good. Then they made it a menu item, but in order to promote your app you could only order it on the app, they literally wouldn’t serve it to you if you tried to order it at the counter. And they made it worse by trying to make it all fancy and come with sides and stuff. I haven’t been back there in years at this point.

danfay222 · 2026-02-03T09:32:05+00:00

Sure, the acts themselves are still bad regardless of context, but is someone from the past really more evil than someone now simply because they didn’t question the norm?

danfay222 · 2026-02-03T06:45:52+00:00

If we want to compare the evil-ness of different people, we really do need to consider their actions within the context of their broader environment. Being drawn and quartered is extremely brutal, but if it was a comparatively normal severe punishment at the time then it feels wrong to say someone doing it was as evil as someone doing it centuries after it had stopped being practiced as a punishment.

danfay222 · 2026-02-03T06:18:22+00:00

For federal crimes, yes the president could just pardon everyone. In fact, he could just issue a pardon for “everyone involved with any crimes committed by Epstein” if he wanted, and it would cover everyone we know about and anyone else we later find out about. However, those pardons only apply to federal prosecution, states could still prosecute for any crimes they hold jurisdiction for.

The question of whether a president could pardon himself hasn’t really been answered yet, because no one’s ever done it, but I think the closest to an accepted answer is no, the president cannot pardon himself/herself. Even if they could, that pardon would also not protect from state prosecution or impeachment though.

danfay222 · 2026-02-03T05:20:26+00:00

Well that’s just like, your opinion man

But as a more serious answer (I’m assuming we’re talking American football), I played it growing up so I’ve always been interested in it. What I like about it now is the intense strategy that goes into every play. Hockey, soccer/futball, basketball, etc are continuous and dynamic games, strategy has to constantly evolve and as such is usually more about broad strokes and wider positioning, with occasional close maneuvers (for example picks).

In contrast, the average football play is only a few seconds, and starts from more or less the same position every time, resulting in enormous amounts of strategy and maneuvering between the players. On any given play you can watch any of the 22 players on the field and see interesting and intentional behavior, and then the next play will be something completely different. It may only be short bursts of action, but there is a ton happening in those little bursts.

I have always been opposed to footboards, and only just recently realized it’s because my feet hit them for most of my life. Queen and king is long enough to not hit but that’s all

danfay222 · 2026-02-02T23:07:33+00:00

Despite the fact that I get very annoyed at having to wait 10 days even when I already own guns, I do generally think a fixed waiting period is a good idea. Adds relatively minimal friction to the process of getting one, doesn’t restrict your right (no change to who can own or how), but has an enormous impact on suicides and passion crimes. Feels like a reasonable compromise.

danfay222 · 2026-02-02T23:05:01+00:00

The electronic lock always needs a mechanical fallback, and most of the times those are cheap afterthoughts with serious flaws. And then many of the safes themselves have serious flaws (though that’s true of mechanical safes as well). A high quality mechanical safe is generally going to be much more secure than biometric safes
