I used to watch some of their videos maybe a year or more ago? They were a bit more low key and the video title matched what they were talking about.

The last few videos I watched I turned off a few minutes in. It just seemed like they all had a basic script and the stories they were reporting weren’t really stories.

Most advanced countries have a mail delivery system.

America is a shit hole.

We can look forward to four years of this trash.

LOL

You’re never going back to the old way of doing things. Kiss that country goodbye.

Love it!

Make it happen, captain.

I’m not sure of the shape change reason, but I prefer the thinner cans. I have a candy store with soft drinks and I can put more of the thinner cans on the shelf. Usually one more can per shelf.

These zones would allow wealthy investors to write their own laws and set up their own governance structures which would be corporately controlled and wouldn’t involve a traditional bureaucracy.

Why do I read this as incel rape cities?

I can. It’s the epitome of America.

America. Fuck you, I’m eating. - Brainworms.

That’s crazy talk. Immunizations give you the autism cooties.

I think that’s already happened.

Musk is insufferable. I’ve been waiting for the Trump/Musk lover affair to end. This might be some of it.

I would LOVE for Trump to go all anti Musk and cancel SpaceX. I seriously think this is in the future and it’s going to be glorious.

I’ve always had a manual car. I love them. That is until I ended up dating a younger woman and we moved in together. Several years later the manual turned into the second car only I drove. That got sold and we now have two cars she can drive.

One day I might teach her how to drive manual. We live in a really flat area with no major hills, so it shouldn’t be a problem. One day maybe,

Hegseth now has someone to go to lunch with.

It’s even worse because his mouth looks like an anus and his neck looks like a vigina. He’s a Cronenberg fever nightmare.

She’s a DEI hire.

The heads pick up dirt and over time the tapes shed on the play and record heads. It’s a dark brown mass that builds up. The thicker it is, the more it interferes with record/playback. Playback will sound muffled with a loss in the high end. Also, the buildup promotes the tapes shedding more doing damage over time. It usually comes off easy with a few light wipes with an alcohol dipped q-tip.

The only “trick” I’ve heard is you are supposed to only wipe off the tape head the way the tape runs across it. The idea being you don’t want to scratch the head which would then damage the tape. I don’t know if this was just folklore, but it seems logical.

I used to have a reel to reel Tascam 8 track that ran 1/2 tape in my studio. I was always careful to wipe only in the direction of the tape and I’d clean before each studio session. I never saw any build up on those heads.

That’s when I’d put my “smart” phone in the toaster and go dust off the Nokia 3310

Half the bands mentioned in this post are from the 90s - or had their haydays in the 90s.

I got banned from Reddit and I honestly don’t know why. I could get around it, but I took it as a positive thing being Canadian and Reddit being Reddit.

Whatever. I’m here now.

Pop Will Eat Itself in the early 90’s.

Amazing fun shows with tons of energy from the band and the audience.

Years back I had a computer store in a small town. Worked on the local city and police computers and network. One day a high school boy was caught sharing pictures of a couple of the high school cheerleaders with their shirts pulled up. These girls were 15-16 year old. If I understand the story the girls were daring each other to lift shirts, pictures were taken by the girls, somehow they got shared out of the group months later, the boy got a copy, he forwarded it to more friends, someone told a parent, parent called school, etc.

There was an investigation. I think the boy got kicked out of school. No CP charges were filed.

BUT…

The responding cop questioned the boy, got the pictures, and almost immediately sent an email to all the bros in the police station containing the pictures. The comments around the station about the girls (who were CHILDREN) from these 45-50 year old men was exactly what you would expect.
