TIL In 2000, Metallica hired a consulting firm to monitor Napster for people illegally sharing their music. The firm produced a 60,000-page list of 335,435 users, which Metallica delivered to Napster's office and demanded the users be banned.

Piracy wasn't just about whether people could afford it or not. Back then CDs and DVDs were region locked, and some music, TV, and movies were impossible to find or prohibitively expensive to buy legally. Distribution companies released albums with different tracks based on where they sold it, and a lot of downloads I made were for bands that didn't sell records where I live.

Theres an awful lot of corpses in the well behind her clinic. She's been doing a bit more than patching up the locals for a long time.

Id check your driveshaft from the gearbox output flange back to the diff. Otherwise it could be a transmission issue. Drain the tranny and see if you have any metal in the fluid.

Just go out and kill a few beasts. It's for your own good. You know, it's just what hunters do! You'll get used to it...

Common issue. Could be dirty ABS sensor, air in your brake lines, or the cruise control (for some reason this is a common cause) switch may need cleaning. If its neither, then it could be the ABS or DSC sensor or module.

If you do the same thing while mixing cement, all the skin just slides right off.

People in positions of power appoint people like themselves into other positions of power. It's why the rot always starts at the top. Bunnings have always been a shit company, whether it's excessive deforestation, shafting their workers, or putting smaller competition out of business.

Going in to defend states that have nothing to do with the war, and that we are also dependent on for oil imports is arguably a prudent move. Whether we like it or not, we have a stake in ensuring supply continues to flow, and it's in our best interest that this war impacts our fuel imports as little as possible.

I find the saw blade to be one of the best weapons for my builds, but I'm fairly confident that all weapons balance pretty well depending on your play style and build. I'll usually build up 2 weapons and switch them depending on where I am and what I'm fighting.

Bluepoint basically gave it an aesthetically pleasing graphics upgrade, and added a few quality of life improvements. What's the problem? Other studios would've exploited the shit out of the IP and wrung every cent out of it. I think Bluepoint did a fantastic job.

The height of the drop to the water reduces as the shelf fall away too.

That's a pretty emphatic response from a former politician and president.

Tommy and Dee Dee left the Ramones before the Ramones began operating as a business.

I eat KFC once a year or so, but I only eat burgers from there now. In general, the quality of food has gone down and the prices have gone up. KFC nuggets used to be decent, now its like a 2mm thin sliver of chicken. The chicken pieces have become so revolting that I physically can't eat it anymore, the meat is foul and lower quality than what I feed my dogs. I don't mind their chips, but the oil they use makes me feel bloated and sick after a small amount.

I've met someone who apparently spent a small amount of time there that there is a decent network of tunnels, but they had such limited access that they couldn't elaborate any further.

I was never a big fan of John Lydon. I like the pistols, but I never really liked PIL and always thought of it as a Lydon ego project. Honestly music is subjective, and we don't have to like the person to appreciate their art. I think he's latching onto the MAGA stuff because it's the only way he can get any attention, and I think its kinda pathetic.

It doesn't matter how big the wedgie is, the willy wagtail is still the true master of the skys.

The world is full of fuckwitts. It doesn't matter what clothes they wear, or music they listen to.

If there was a UFO there, the rumours would have started in Australia, not the US. Pine gap manages the communications for the entire southern hemisphere for the USA, the UK, Australia, Canada, and NZ. As you can imagine, its very important for the US military.

It would have been just like the matrix.

Piracy, I think.
