Scepter televisions are a great option, no “smart” features at all. Bought two of them about 6 years ago and no issues.

Starch foam peanuts. They’ll just dissolve after you eat them, leaving the same hollow void inside you along with the addition of feeling cheated.

I was really enjoying this game for a couple weeks, and plan to go back to it after it gets a few updates. Just started to get Ground Hog’s Day fatigue after a while. The same critters keep spawning in the same places, over and over again. Gets tedious after a while. Had the same problem playing Small Land. Love the exploring and all, but monotonous critter spawns. Hoping they’ll implement some randomness once they develop the game more.

I’ve seen elderly folks do that a few times. Not on the shoulder, but still in their lane, backing up into oncoming traffic. (Yes, I did spend some time living in Florida.)

Paper straws would work great if they just coated them in plastic. Then they wouldn’t disintegrate before you finished your drink.

I bought two copies of this game at the end of 2019 for a friend and I to try out. At $5, why not? We have played the shit out of this game since then, especially when we both got stuck home during covid for a few weeks. Glad it’s finally reached 1.0, enjoying seeing all of the updated POI’s and some new critters. So what if it took this long to come out of alpha? Have had way more than five bucks worth of fun over the past few years.

My choice of a retirement home will be dictated by which one offers high-speed internet service.

There used to be one in Kalamazoo MI on the west side of the WMU campus in the 90’s. Loved that place, burritos were really good. No, not really as big as your head, but it was a lot of food.

I wouldn’t doubt someone already has, on purpose, but behind closed doors.

I know shooting sports in schools used to be a thing, but figured after Columbine that those programs were all dropped and didn’t exist anymore. Gunfire near a school is no longer about academic competitions, but something tragic and far too common.

I’m going to make the assumption that is PETG you are working with. I had cobwebs like that when I tried moving over from doing PLA. There were a few things I had to work out to get better prints.

1. Slow down the print speed and work up once you get acceptable prints. Try 40 to 50mm/s to start.
2. Increase filament retraction. Default I think is like 0.2mm, try 1.0mm instead.
3. Increase the travel speed. I’ve used 350mm/s, which helps break strings, as someone else already suggested.
4. Drop the extruder temperature. PETG gets more stringy as it gets hotter. Lower temp may help, and if you aren’t trying to print at warp speed, bonding should still be good. Do small test prints to see where your cutoff is. Also, if the cooling fan on that Sovol is a bit anemic then printing cooler lets each layer solidify before the next one gets added. Hopefully you get things worked out, good luck.

The m is an old apothecary unit for “minims” which was about 1 drop. Not very exact, the amount dosed depended on the method used to dispense each drop. Most of the content was probably water or glycol syrup, so the total alcohol content would be diluted to less than 1%.

I remember this happening, and the pet food scandal just before it. Melamine was being added to pet food and milk powder to falsely increase their protein values. Enough to cause kidney failure and sometimes death. I used to do protein analysis for food products, and could see how easy it would be for food companies to cheat like this. The percent nitrogen content in a sample is used to estimate the protein value. Melamine powder contains a lot of nitrogen, so it’s blended in to bump up the final protein values. Really shitty thing to do, knowing that it’s toxic.

Taste isn’t great. Definitely burns some and you can feel your tongue, lips,and gums shrivel as the alcohol sucks the moisture out of them.

I’ve sipped anhydrous 200 proof ethanol before. Not something I recommend trying.

Saw the question and thought of exactly this video. Great skit.

Corpses can definitely win. Anthony DeLuca won his seat with 86% of the vote in Pennsylvania, and he’d already kicked the bucket a month before the polls opened. https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/decision-2022/late-pennsylvania-rep-was-on-ballot-due-to-law-not-fraud/3420028/

I like the Genesis World Tour '78 shirt.

Maybe something that looks like a shaggy aardvark with a curly tail.
