In the millennia we’ve had domestic chickens of all shapes and sizes, but nobody has bred a silent rooster? I just don’t get that.
I’m not sure that we ever would. Every country that gets healthcare and a standard of living above abject poverty drops their birthrates. I would hope with fusion power, there wouldn’t be a person on (or off) the planet going hungry.
But then again, Jeff Bezos exists, so we’ll still end up with 99% of the wealth in the hands of 1%.
Probably by caning them to death when they spit their gum on the ground.

You wouldn’t believe how many rusty old vicegrips I own because of this sort of thing. Hell, I held a seeder meterbox on with vicegrips this spring, I’m one to talk. Couldn’t get a new holder clip for it, and the meterbox was cracked so I ordered a new one and limped by with the vicegrips until we were done.

Goddamn I hate mice. I just had to tear out the entire contents of a combine cab to get rid of their piss and shit, and fix the wiring they chewed off.

95% isn’t great. I run my own servers on solar and I don’t think I’ve had more than a hourof unexpected downtime in the last 3 years, excluding the usual update reboots.
I’m ok with that.

If you’re paying $6 for a chick, you’re buying a pet, not a meal.
Was that supposed to entertain the idea that I should regard streamers with the same respect I would Rush Limbaugh?
If so, mission accomplished.

If you don’t want ridiculous amount of goddamn perfume in it, you pretty much need to.
IDK if these manufacturers don’t have olfactory senses in their QC departments, but it’s getting stupid how much more scent is being added. I had a Costco brick of Irish Spring soaps I’d been whittling away at and bought another one recently. I couldn’t even stand having the new one in the house, I tossed it because it stank so much, even through the door of the bathroom cabinet. I still have a couple left from the old brick and they’re manageable but now I’m going to have to find something else.
Maybe I need to look into making it, too.

I have to figure that’s where these people are stuck. You can’t have used frontier models in anger in the last 6 months and still believe this tripe.
