PersnickityPenguin,

The US just vetoed a ceasefire agreement in the UN security council.

PersnickityPenguin,

Late 20s it’s kind of doable, at least for awhile. But usually they don’t know each other, lol.

PersnickityPenguin,

Ah so you’ve met my elderly mum

PersnickityPenguin,

And ears. And prescription drugs (Medicare).

PersnickityPenguin,

This is happening to my father as well, although the city is doing the opposite: he can’t build a house on his property, he has to build a minimum of 40 apartments (it’s a 1/2 acre lot).

PersnickityPenguin,

Vegan ice cream

PersnickityPenguin,

All mammals drink milk, that’s literally the defining biological trait of them. Hoomans are also mammals.

PersnickityPenguin,

Tell me you know nothing about farming without actually saying it.

Cows and other livestock are raised in farms to raise more cows anyway. Farmers don’t keep male cows around for fun, and cows aren’t pets. All non-breeding stock gets eaten.

PersnickityPenguin,

Not as strange as Mongolians, who drink horse blood.

PersnickityPenguin,

Google “hucows”

PersnickityPenguin,

Supposedly everything is now contaminated with fentanyl.

PersnickityPenguin,

I own a brother inkjet and it works fine, although it complained when I put the wrong brand of ink in it.

PersnickityPenguin,

I still remember a few years ago when my local Clearwater Classic Rock station started playing Green Day, Red Hot chili peppers, Weezer, Death Cab, Arcade Fire… as… classic rock?!

My head spun.

PersnickityPenguin,

Classical

PersnickityPenguin,

But since the kei truck cannot travel over 55 mph, that makes it more dangerous!

PersnickityPenguin,

The kei truck is mostly a farm truck.

For construction, Japan uses huge flatbed trucks.

PersnickityPenguin,

You can buy a really old small truck.

PersnickityPenguin,

The Suzuki Carry, like many kei trucks has foldable bed sidewalls, like those home Depot trucks. So Americans would never go for it as it’s not sexy.

At $14,000 for a used 94 variant, not sure if it’s worth it.

PersnickityPenguin,

They have a kei version of American trucks too.

PersnickityPenguin,

Of course not, those are for construction managers. I usually see the workers driving Honda civics.

PersnickityPenguin,

CAFE was enacted in 1975

PersnickityPenguin,

We are criticizing the cult of toxic masculinity, not body types.

PersnickityPenguin,

Japanese lower speed limits help. Also, few people in Japan are driving long distances in these things.

PersnickityPenguin,

They actually don’t have very good fuel economy, around 20 mpg.

PersnickityPenguin,

My neighbor spent about $20k buying a late 90s model Tacoma.

PersnickityPenguin,

I had a friend with one, he had mud tires on it and drove up a lot of hills. It was also really old, the newer ones probably get better gas mileage.

PersnickityPenguin,

What in the world

PersnickityPenguin,

Aye, fuck you with an anchor.

Bark bark bark barky bark

Said the fiddler on the greeeeen

PersnickityPenguin,

You left out Pasadena 1994 by Nanowar of Steel

Also my favorites, fiddler on the green and old Nightwish, Stratovarious or Blind Guardian.

I’ve been also known to enjoy a Sonata Arctica concert or two.

PersnickityPenguin,

Dude, my 4-year-old son calls me by my first name sometimes. It’s kind of funny.

I don’t think I even knew my parents real names until I was like 7 years old.

PersnickityPenguin,

SpaceX does one thing though… Well, three things. Rocket development, launch services and starlink.

NASA does a whole lot more, they have 10 times as many employees and far more suppliers than SpaceX does. SpaceX is basically a service provider for NASA.

This is kind of like saying that Lockheed Martin is more efficient than the department of defense.

PersnickityPenguin,

Yeah, but NASA hasn’t even had launch capabilities since what, 2006?

PersnickityPenguin,

Americans don’t even get the day off to vote, and they have to stand in line for 12 to 16 hours to be able to vote.

I think they would revolt if they were required by law to vote.

PersnickityPenguin,

The news media collectively decided to not cover Bernie, while Bernie continued to win primaries every other candidate folded to Biden which torpedoed Bernies chances.

PersnickityPenguin,

I would surmise it would take between 15 and 40 years to get it passed.

PersnickityPenguin,

Japan uses cards, it’s just that they love their trains so much, they put their money on their fare cards I stead of using credit cards.

I still have my Suica card, it’s got $50 on it still.

PersnickityPenguin,

There are so few homeless in Japan that it’s not really worth talking about. I have seen maybe one homeless person there.

One average sized city in the US probably has more homeless people than the entire nation of Japan.

PersnickityPenguin,

Germany doesn’t have bidets? France does.

PersnickityPenguin,

Japan has one maglev line under construction with a completion date set for 2045.

PersnickityPenguin,

I had my wallet stolen years ago, within an hour someone had purchased thousands of $$$ worth of MacBook pros from the Apple store.

Don’t lose your debit card!!! The bank doesn’t do charge backs!

PersnickityPenguin,

$100 is my weekly beer bill.

PersnickityPenguin,

It’s funny, it’s pretty similar to what the US government did when they sent in settlers out to the west. Once over enough settlers staking out clams of land, it ended up crowding out the native Americans which led to conflict, and then you ended up with Custer killing bison on the Great plains.

PersnickityPenguin,

Your just using an auto collaging tool.

Like if you were to go to art school, but outsourced all the art making to some Photoshop artist in I dia for $3. And claimed it as your own.

If you don’t put in the sweat and tears, you aren’t creating. I’d go farther and say prompting is closer to story boarding at a marketing firm, and you’re the boss/project manager.

It’s pretty neat technology, but it’s so far from actual content creation through the artistic process.

PersnickityPenguin,

China’s J-35 may be more capable than any other platform that NATO fields, batting the F-35. We are looking at a shooting war between the US and China before the end of the decade.

PersnickityPenguin,

The news is saying that China is spending as much as the US on their military.

PersnickityPenguin,

HL3 gang remembers

PersnickityPenguin,

Daikatana PTSD

PersnickityPenguin,

Yep. I consider HL:Alex to be HL:3. It’s that good.

But I still want another HL game.
