Probably my favorite unplugged album. The Alice in Chains one is really good too

I hear if your the 10,000 caller to 1-800-IDGAMES you get Carmack on the phone.

F/A 18s have zinc in their brake disks that if they ever catch on fire the best option is to push the jet of the carrier.

Oh, I got you. I'm more of a Brave browser behind a pi-hole with local unbound dns kinda guy. I know Brave is sketchy but it's just so much better than any other options I have tried. All that to say, that when an add sneaks by my defenses, it's kinda impressive in the most annoying way possible.

Now if someone could invent ad skip for in video content from a youtuber, that seems a little more on the morally gray side of the fence.

I look anywhere but the screen when an ad is playing. Yolo Edit: this probably violates YouTube T.O.S., very risky

Well now I must know more about Postal World. Do they grow the stamps that they eat? Aren't all beds enveloped shaped, or are the sheets folded a certain way to imply an envelope.

Also, to your point about capitalism. Monkeys trade bananas for sex.

I didn't realize how temporary and disposable Starlink's satellites were. They incinerate 4 or 5 a day by de-orbiting them into the ozone. Here's a pretty good CNET article that talks about how they “dispose” of them. IDK, doesn't seem sustainable. They also mention the bandwidth gains are being diminished with the influx of new users, so their solution is more temporary satellites.

They're just following in the footsteps of Comcast. The FCC gave SpaceX/Starlink $885.5 million to provide rural broadband after they gave Comcast over $1 billion less than 5 years ago to do the same thing. Starlink actually works out there from what I understand, so I guess that's something.

I hope they both choke on their own bots.

I mean, can you imagine if it changed?

Not a gen Z but I'm actually a fan of both of those words. It's like a forceful put or get.
