Yes, it was all there, everything was all there. This thing is relatively new and modern. They made a deliberate decision to put it there. It's fucking with both the health of the low income residents as well as gentrified Federal Hill and those richer areas. (Baltimore is kind of a weird city where you can have a McMansion on one street, and two streets over have a row of rotting rowhomes all mixed in with each other).

I believe there is a city movement to have it demolished. They've been going at it for years.

I live next to that incinerator in the picture, in the Cherry Hill neighborhood. I've always wondered who's bright idea it was to put that fucker right in the middle of downtown. Seriously, the inner harbor tourist area is literally only a mile or so from this thing. It's completely surrounded by neighborhoods. It's not like it was an old school existing factory either, it was built relatively recently.

Yes. But they didn't have a megaphone to reach millions with one post. They were rightfully looked at as crazy assholes and mostly stayed in the dark.

That's the idea, overwhelm people with massive amounts of information and misinformation, and people start tuning out and not caring anymore. One thing I did learn from those "propaganda" sources of days past was that the Holocaust was real, a fuckton of minorities were brutally murdered, and Nazis are fucksticks who need to be stamped out at every opportunity.

That is something I've actually seen actively changing in the past 20 years. When I was a kid/teen, we never fucking questioned it. Now the Internet is full of Holocaust deniers. Just spreading that shit from person to person like a virus.

We didn't blindly trust other sources either. Filtering and research is a skill you learn to use on any source of info you're given. Public schools used to teach us how to do this. Do they not anymore?

The world's space industry would be even more impressive if we didn't have these stupid fucking hangups and worked together with them on that front. Just like Russia and the US working to build ISS.

It's the Amazon store technique. Today, you're known as "Sohanghi", tommorow you're "Elbertung", next week you'll be "Smasnug".

Back in my day we were perfectly capable of checking our own facts. A rare skill these days.

I have an idea. Make it so every time you create a social media account, you have to check "agree" to a giant banner that says "if you take anything you see on here seriously, you are an idiot.". That's how we used to automatically treat things on the Internet at first glance.

"Maybe I'll try learning more about C++ templates today..."

Wall of incomprehensible errors

"Maybe not."

They will up to a certain altitude, when the internal pressure is too much to overcome. It's probably very easy to open at say, 1-2000 feet.

From what I recall, they pressurize airliners to the equivalent altitude of 8,000 feet, so you have until that altitude to open the door.

Now anything you want can have a tweakable nipple.

Then according to that logic all of the Cold War was WW3 because at this point it's still just a couple of proxy wars going on. No great/super powers are in direct conflict with each other.

Call me when China and Russia decide to team up and attack Boston.

The fuck is wrong with this country and its issues with sexuality/nudity?

I remember seeing bare titties on the front of a magazine in the regular supermarket checkout line in Germany as a kid, right there for everyone to see. Their society isn't falling apart because of it.

Back in my day we had to get our Internet at the village Internet well. I remember the dialup modem noises it made as you pulled the bucket up.

You just have to be able to navigate whatever executable file format it is, figure out where the data/code sections are, how different parts are linked together, and translate all the binary opcodes to readable mnemonics.

Easy. 😁

Everything is open source if you can read assembly.

It was mostly a joke. I was just trying to mess with people 😉
