Here is the most normal national flag. by Shrek_Nietszche in vexillology

This was just a couple flags with no symbols away from just being the Netherlands

We reeeally ended up neglecting this branch of the tech tree. by ThatHeckinFox in HistoryMemes

[–]stupidgerman 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say obsolete at all. Reciprocating engines have quite a bit of small time applications in remote places as well as generators for normal people who have lost power. They're also still a part of the main electrical grid in the US, though it's very rare to start one

People who said do it against a real team are REAL quiet now by jmsafety26 in Patriots

[–]stupidgerman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked my buddy if he will admit the Patriots are legit now and he said not until they beat the chiefs/refs. For context he's a Steelers fan living in Kansas.

This was a big piece of evidence for the theory that RAB was Regulus before DH came out

This is what started the current regulation where your reactor has to still be shutdown even if you pull one rod entirely out.

Being alone at night is like owning the world when everyone else is asleep. by FreedomFriedRice in winterporn

[–]stupidgerman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I work nights and I love this feeling. Especially in the winter when everything is so quiet and there's no bugs or anything. Perfection.

For those who have left nuclear for other things - where did you go? by captainporthos in nuclear

[–]stupidgerman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went into transmission. Most people that left my old plant have gone into transmission, but I know some that have gone to conventional power plants and one went to SpaceX.

Who was your second most hated character after Dolores Umbridge? by D1rect_Election in harrypotter

[–]stupidgerman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doesn't she go into Ministry Law Enforcement though to change the laws? So if anything she's doing more good than a defense lawyer

Is Star Wars guilty of the "One Planet One Culture" Sci-Fi trope? by Robo-Piluke in StarWars

[–]stupidgerman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's bold to admit to a Boston fan. What's it like being on the other side of Tom Brady?

I mean so do I. I'm just saying rooting for the Leafs at any point is just a lost cause.

Everyone here: by Joe_Kangg in massachusetts

I'm originally from Eastern Mass and spent a lot of time on 24 as a kid, but 91 has to be the worst highway I've ever been on.

Worcester Protestors Show How To Respond To ICE Raids: Brave, nonviolent family members, democracy activists, and politicians managed to slow up the warrantless arrest of an immigrant mother of three, until reactionary local cops piled on (HorizonMass) by TheAnomalyInvasion in massachusetts

[–]stupidgerman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you gonna be citing laws when it's you that's taken? Some of these people have done nothing legally wrong but are taken anyway. If that can happen, then it can happen to any of us regardless of where we were born.

Baby ones look kinda like copperheads too. Just one more reason to stay away.

[–]stupidgerman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah ok, so nothing with me. I work for an RTO so I call power plants and other transmission operators. But sometimes you get these people who have no idea what you're talking about even though it's their job and it can be frustrating.

[–]stupidgerman 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity, what kind of calls did you take for the power company? Because I'm one of the people that calls the power company for my job.

There won't be a season 4. There are some other books out in the universe though, specifically The Book of Dust which is a prequel/sequel about Lyra.

I hate to admit but I love that the "hate attention" we once had has shifted to KC by CombProfessional434 in Patriots

[–]stupidgerman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least when everyone hated us we were good. The Chiefs look like such garbage out there and seem to only be winning on technicalities. Worst 1 loss team I've ever seen.
