You can also just leave the cap intact, and and just tie the end of the cord in a knot to keep the strings together. Just loop it around itself and poke the end through the loop and tighten it to make the knot sit near the end of the cord.

They were probably able to use their special weapons and tactics to shoot away the floodwaters that had kidnapped the medicines.

Wow this is really fucked up. Here are some numbers from the article that can sorta quantify how bad it is:

"Lexington — a rural town of about 1,200 people, approximately 76% of whom are Black."

"Lexington residents owe police $1.7 million in fines, and the city court has issued bench warrants seeking the arrest of more than 650 people — roughly half of the city’s population — because of unpaid fines, Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke said."

And there's a lot of other horrible stuff in there that they did to people. Too bad the BLM Antifa destruction squads were made up, they could use one there.

It's really sad to me that modern youths and others tend to only listen to streaming music services, paying subscriptions, listening to ads, not being able to choose what song they hear next.

Everyone should own some form of permanently usable media with the music they like on it. If bands were still putting out CDs I'd recommend that for long term storage, because my collection from the 90s is still working fine. But with smartphones being the king of all social control now, I'd recommend having MP3s of every song and album you enjoy. Store them in multiple places with backups. I have also been collecting those since the 90s. My music collection is awesome. I have hundreds of CDs and about 10000 MP3s that no corporation can deny me access to.

The only thing I like about streaming services is discovering new artists. But I don't need it to do that.

WHOA

Motherfucker is still going on about executing babies lol. What a fucking psycho.

Could be. There's no amount of money or jail time that would be enough for me to commit suicide.

Sounds like a space about the size of Bubbles's shed on Trailer Park Boys.

In the megalandlords shell company scenario, I'm sure that is hypothetically possible but it would at least make it more difficult for the mega corporations to buy so many single family homes. It would have to help improve the market. Shell companies could also be addressed in the legislation.

Right, I bought that shit in 2014 I think. Haven't played it in several years.

Where did you get that info about the hybrid longevity, an episode of Comedy Bang Bang? Could it be due to hybrids not running the gas engines full-time (less wear hours of usage per mile) ?

The only hybrid I've driven tends to run the engine more as a power generator than to drive the wheels, and often uses no gas engine. I could see how the engine would be less worn from that kind of usage vs driving the wheels all the time.

Well then it must be too late for salvation, as so many men have already learnt to fish.

And then Jesus gave them fish to eat, taught men to lead other men to water and teach them to fish and feed them forever, on fish.

My experience has been that they last for more years than I tend to notice which ones are which. I'm not mad at all about their longevity.

I had 2 LED bulbs that I know for sure that I bought prior to 2015 that only recently failed. Those bulbs lasted at least 9-10 years. The rest of my bulbs I haven't kept up with but those 2 older ones looked very distinctive with aluminum heatsink material for their bottom halves.

Yep this is a level of vindictive punishment-obsession taken too far. Children are treated differently by the law for good reason. Their brains, wisdom, and maturity are not at the level of adulthood, and their understanding of risk and consequences is not the same.

Pizza Hut buffet was a good deal for the price and quality, if you wanted to go have a lunch of real pizza.

Our local one is still here but they sold the big red roof building and moved into a strip mall. No inside dining, carry out only. I miss the drive-through though - used to be able to just order online or call and not have to get out of my car to get it. Now I have to park and walk inside and my precious convenience is reduced. But I still refuse to pay for Doordash type bullshit.

Cool, I didn't know you could do that

I think the bomb threats in Ohio after the dumbass pet eating lies were spread is a preview.

Trumptards already saw their insurrection didn't work and that prison is the consequence. Trump admitted that he lost the 2020 election and many of those cultists are mad about it. So I don't think we will have a repeat of the Capitol attack, instead we may have some assorted terrorist threats and attacks. Hopefully if that does happen, it will further drive them into obscurity because normal people tend to not like terrorism.

Rudo's tool sounds cool.

I've done those conversions by hand before, just deleting irrelevant Google junk out of the KML file to import it to OsmAnd~ because I planned my route on the desktop Google Earth app (3D is cool) and exported it to KML. After some edits it usually will import to OsmAnd on the phone

I didn't have to pay for it, installed from F-Droid, and I can download any map I've tried so far. When I'm traveling I like to pre-download the standard map for the whole state if it's one I don't already have installed. It's nice to not have to worry about data / reception.

Overall OsmAnd is a pretty good GPS-map-navigation app, but has several annoyances and bugs. Still better than using Google's app to me. I need to check out Organic maps too
