Omg that looks just like my dog. Same coloring and derpy face…and my dog is missing his testicles…but otherwise…wow.

Half brother.

At least in America he’d get a 3/5ths brother.

This is intentional they build them on the ground then pull them up. Much less crane fees

Why do I feel like this duck is voiced by Trey Parker?

Meanwhile can’t even get menthols in MA.

What about fat-bottomed girls?

Detachable Penis

You know what really grinds my gears?

Airplanes with those banners that they tow…at the fucking beach.

Im out here in the sun trying to relax and enjoy the day when this loud ass fucking single engine prop plane has to fly low and slow right across the beach to tell me about some personal injury lawyer or some used car dealership

Absolutely guarantees I will not patronize their business.

Red Hot Chili Peppers, the band, has existed for 44 years.

I’m reminded of this every time I spot Flea in Back to The Future (Needles), which itself is 41 years old.

Good riddance Hulk Hogan

Agreed

And it came to pass that Leo spoke unto Mr. Lovera, saying: Behold, my brother John Prevost, even from the city of Chicago, did yet call upon the pontiff for aid with his machines.

And Mr. Lovera bore witness, saying: Thus spake Roberto unto his brother: “John, I am become pope.” And John answered him, saying: “Oh, forgive me, O pope, for my computer is broken, and I have none to mend it.”

Oooh Subways! Burrowing Trains!

Looks like Boston/MBTA

Park Street?

Oil and coal are cheap because its cost doesn’t include externalities…which in itself is a form of subsidy.

If we subsidized nuclear the same way, we could build plants faster and have cheaper energy.

Auto Kühler, der fahrer.

It has the advantage of being easily made in an emergency situation.

Idk, I think it’s a worthwhile thought exercise to know the wrong ways to do something, in case the situation ever arises where you need to.

And that would all count as “not using it correctly”.

As I said, they are many ways to very easily use it incorrectly. Being overconfident about it is one, which is why I have an inlet and an interlock.

Would that only happen if one outlet were wired backwards (hot to neutral and vice-versa)?

If both outlets are wired correctly, as I’m envisioning it, the extension cord is parallel to the existing branch.

Same if both outlets are wired (the same) incorrectly.

But if one outlet is wired correctly and one has its poles swapped, then you are shorting hot directly to neutral…

But also being a 3-prong outlet…assuming everything is wired correctly…the short would either be redirected to ground and either trip the breaker or trigger a GFCI…no?

IANAElectrician. Just a high dude thinking about circuits.

Worth mentioning that the point of a suicide cord like this isn’t to connect two outlets together…really no reason to do that…it’s usually used to hook up a generator (or other load-center, like say a campground plug) to a branch circuit when the home/rv/load doesn’t have an inlet. It’s also extremely dangerous if used incorrectly, and there are several ways to very easily use it incorrectly.

The lovely suicide cord.

Worth mentioning that it is plenty safe…if used appropriately (for attaching a generator to a house that doesn’t have an inlet).

It’s when it’s not used appropriately that’s a problem. And it’s very easy to not use it appropriately.

This is really it.

There’s the fascist-owned platforms…most notably truthsocial, but definitely also X and Meta and all their platforms as well. I’d also say spez has absolutely bent the knee…several times. Fuck /u/spez.

And then there’s the communist-operated platforms. Lemmy, and basically the entire fediverse.

I wouldn’t say all instances are communist operated, certainly .ml, but many of them are just liberal, socialist, technohippies. (A term that I just coined now, and would gleefully apply to myself)

Only reddit still gets any of my traffic, and that’s largely out of muscle-memory.

Listen, they only told me to clean the sink. Didn’t say shit about the dishes.
