Nothing stopping everyone else from having a posh wank now and again.

His dog told him to do it, so you can’t really blame him, right?

OP, do this, but when you use silicone caulk (kitchen and bathroom stuff), you need to use rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle to smooth it out or it will stick to your finger and make a mess. Water works great for latex caulk.

Does your PC have an Intel or AMD CPU? Congrats, you don’t have to worry about Recall. At least for now, it only works on Copilot+ PCs with ARM processors.

TIL the title of this article is similarly misleading. He didn’t spend 18 years on the crapper either.

Not so much as a shred of shenanigans.

Huh. I always wondered what happened to the guy who played Sock from Reaper.

She should debate a puppet sitting on a chair, and express her disappointment that Putin couldn’t be there to reach up its ass and work its mouth.

You would want something like this. The important part is that it comes in two pieces so you can install it without having to disconnect anything to pass it through. The brushes are to resist airflow, but they are obviously not going to be airtight or pest resistant. For that, I would use expanding foam insulation. Those cables and pipes aren’t going anywhere, and if you absolutely had to replace one, removing the sprayfoam is a trivial effort compared to the rest of the job.

I dunno man. I quickly learned to avoid Chrome at all costs because of the performance. Even when it was supposedly “good”, it was always a massive memory hog. Never had that issue with Firefox, and if it ended up taking a few seconds longer here and there to load a page, it would pale in comparison to the overall hit to the system from Chrome. Like being penny wise and pound foolish.

Renew! Renew!

All Cops Are Artists?

Thank you for providing legitimate discourse. Pretty rare in this kind of thread, but it’s important.

I expected to at least see what number doubled in one year.

True, but I am talking about CD-Rs, as per above. I assume you know what those are.

All of my old PS-1 games on 25-30 year old CD-Rs work fine. You’d be lucky to get 10 years from an HDD. I start losing disks in my RAID 5 arrays at about 6 years, and if you are unlucky it could be under 3. I have a 10 year old USB stick (oldest one I haven’t lost yet) that has started failing. So CDs are looking pretty good long term. Would just be a pain to back them all up again, but you might only really have to repeat that once for a lifetime of use.

Those glass bottles used to cause an awful lot of horrific deaths and injuries during handling, so from a safety perspective, there is no desire at all to return to glass. Glass bottles are also much heavier than plastic, so have a commensurate environmental impact due to the increased consumption of fossil fuels for shipping as well. Fixing the problems with plastic was a big PR win and saved companies millions in law suits and shipping costs. They won’t go back to glass. The answer is probably re-usable plastic containers purchased by the customer and refilled at stores for the same price (or more) than when sold in disposable plastic packaging. Another PR win in the offing, no doubt.

Judging from the fact that this made world news, I have to admit it worked. A single post getting people angry about a fake cancer victim proved far more effective than any ad campaign I have ever seen for health awareness, and zero cost! I guess we only pay attention when we are outraged. Fair play, then.

Of note, that stuff works great, but you need to be very sparing with it, as it very difficult to sand compared to the premixed stuff. Make sure you have it as close to the way you want it to look as you are able before you let it dry. A lot of drywallers use this stuff for pre-filling poor, uneven drywall board work before taping, as it is very hard stuff. But it can take a lot longer to dry that way than the bag would suggest. Sheetrock 90 turned into Sheetrock Maybe Tomorrow in my kitchen reno after I used it to replace sections along the edges of some damaged drywall that tore out when I removed the old tile backsplash.

And the thing your aunt gave you that you don’t know what it is.
