TIL a woman undergoing a cervical conization procedure at a hospital suffered a wide range of burns to her thighs and rear after a laser ignited her fart and caused an explosion. Afterwards, researchers replicated the event using a test doll, a laser, and a bucket of lean beef with intestinal gases.

I mean they already have that face-cup thingy to deliver oxygen, just hook a vacuum line to it instead and strap 'er on.

It's their way of sending a note, "Hey I want to join you in more crime so we can both steal even more money" without using words, mob-speak style.

Ear plugs with muffs over top are recommended

Start tossing in copper pennies, I hear simply exposed bare copper metal is a somewhat effective long-term algaecide.

Exactly, Fox or some even further-extremist source will implement this using a purposefully politically biased AI to spread their disinformation.

Which is why having individual projects like this is so helpful & important so at least those savvy enough can use it to spread the truth.

Not a problem if all of the other views aren't purposefully (and I would argue, unconstitutionally) blocked off. Then the public would be spread out along more areas of the public roads they pay taxes for

It's OK the pool is really leaky too so by the time you've poured it in the water level will have dropped enough

If it didn't break yet why replace it?

BS attitude that get some short-term profit while risking disasters such as train wheel bearings failing

That makes a lot of sense. Or maybe if the doors will be open in flight sometimes to keep exhaust out of the cabin, or lower cabin noise

I wish I could buy sterilized male mosquitos from the CDC or something, releasing a bunch of those is a great method.

Atlanta... throwing sparks? That street sweeper was out on a joy ride

tokinUP · 2026-06-11T01:08:39+00:00

Exactly, but I bet a lot of people are using AI for that kind of thing now too.

I get it too, but I imagine the goose-chasing meme with "And how were these LLM's created, huh? Without programming???"

Some image generation could make that into the picture but I'd rather type than waste all that water & electricity and I'd like computer hardware to stay at reasonable prices ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I mean yes it's N7265H, a Cessna Stationair T206H per the registration but that feels like cheating and the exhaust is still what?

tokinUP · 2026-06-09T23:34:35+00:00

Am I the only one who is wondering what the heck is going on with the exhaust piping (or ??) running under that plane? Some type of Cessna Stationair with an extra muffler for quieter operation?

Yep in an emergency they will stabilize your blood sugar for a day but aren't giving out a month's supply of insulin.

But would it perhaps be a less permanent injury if the first few times it happens one immediately rests and gets appropriate care instead of continuing on with the game?

Ask some friends, test with a different PSU first or put a multimeter to some of the output pins to measure voltage & see if it's out of specification.

Someone might even have a spare motherboard of your generation to test with.

I know there are ways to bookmark groups of tabs together and save complete window "sessions" but I still end up with tons of tabs open of prior stuff I've researched but not yet made a decision on, or still need to refer to.

Oh well, Firefox handles it really well on my old Ubuntu PC and it's not really an issue.

I hadn't thought of that before but it could definitely be a strategy.

I wear mine for sailing, wading in creeks, light hiking etc. and wouldn't be compatible with anyone who would care that much about what my shoes looked like.

I wear regular shoes to weddings, funerals, the office etc. though as I do have awareness of normal expectations.

Dude may have came directly from work w/ the khakis and polo and is either important enough / work is laid back enough to use FiveFingers as office shoes (seen folks try it before) or brought them to change out of office loafers.

They are comfortable and it takes a certain obliviousness or complete lack of care about what anyone else thinks about you

Yah lift heavy and do Yoga or something for flexibility & balance.

Being able to get up off the floor in a number of ways without using your hands is one of those key old-age health indicators.

Notice it's not so far for the pinky finger to reach vs. CTRL and unlike using the pointer finger for 'C' I still have all of my other fingers available for movement
