Dishwashers, the 3 most recent dishwashers that I have had experience using across 3 very different households and use levels, from 3 different manufacturers, have all had minor to major faults in the 4-5 years since installation, just after the warranty period ended.

Mostly drawer and roller related, but also a pump failure.

Which was a reference to Nazis asking for papers.

Which gives Russia the excuse it wants to attack and try and take more land.

Just like the lopsided cease fire in Gaza that the US “brokered” gave the IDF a bunch of excuses that they still managed to massively overreach.

They want to make us all antifa terrorists if we’ve ever dissed capitalism or Christianity. Or christo-fascism presumably.

They wouldn’t hesitate to hold it to your face to unlock it.

Passcode would be better, but I’m not sure the 5th amendment works at border crossings like it should.

solid joke

I thought that was the concept behind the flag. Or maybe the yellow was supposed to be wheat fields?

Yeah there are free bikes or nearly free at garage sales where I live. I’ve gotten decent bontrager or similar wheels for commuter bikes and hybrids for years that way.

They are usually quite dusty and occasionally need a hub rebuild, but more often than not I just adjust them or adjust the brake paces more commonly, check the spokes, and send it.

Super Mario bros 1 & 3. I still have them working on my old Wii, but I’ve been planning on a retro pi setup for ages.

My OG NES stopped working a decade ago.

I hope whoever does still bring whisky to share.

Yeah and probably afraid of the ATF under any other administration than this one.

Nothing strange about denying it before it happened. Nope nothing strange at all…

There’s a YouTube guy named Crime Pays But Botany Doesn’t.

He started out doing walks and identifying plants while explaining the plant families, neat facts, the environment the plant likes and other stuff.

And he sounds like Dick Butkas da whole time.

More recently he’s been doing gorilla planting and kill your lawn jobs for people who want native yards instead of grass.

Anyone else read this to themselves in a thick Chicago accent?

Plumbers pretty much do, not sure about treatment plants though.

Lots of shit goes down the drains that shouldn’t.

Now do Hegseth, McMahon, Patel, and Basset

Yeah that was one of the more fucked confirmation hearings. He should have been held in contempt during the first 5 minutes.

How do a few new congress people get anything done without compromise with at least half the rest?

The broadband period, after AOL and the dot com crash, was probably the peak.

We had car videos, google was pretty good at finding things and its ads were separated. Geocities and webrings were dying, but we had high design gallery sites that were human curated and had some great stuff.

Flash was still a fun thing, and not just a banner ad delivery tool.

Forums and spam bots and email scams were a thing, but had always been there and were fairly easy to avoid/ignore. Still annoying though.

If the ad blockers work anyway.
