  1. Youre "caucasian looking" but got a minority rebate? Are you jewish?
  2. Washington announces new team name: Washington Commanders.
  3. Whoa thats astronomical! Do you have alternative means for heating your homes in Germany besides your furnace? What do you keep your thermostat temperature set to? Let me see if I can math that out... $190 / .63 = 301.58 therms used by me. Then multiplied by your therm price... 302 x 3.74 = $1,129.48. WHAT! That cant be right. Someone help me out here. No worries. I dont recall any protests but I may just not have noticed. Speed limit signs seems like it would be a good place to start considering the speedometers in our cars already have a km/h ring built in below the mph ring.
  4. "Therm"! Thank you, I couldnt remember the units. Yeah it went from 21 cent per to 63 cent per. And I use it like crazy, for example I run my fireplace almost 14h a day, but I do keep my thermostat set to 68F. I think the bill was ~$190 and she was aghast until we noticed the price increase.
  5. Good! He can take his 6-0 record against the Cowboys and get the hell out!
  6. I think that might actually cause the US to secede from the world itself in protest! XD "I reject your reality and substitue my own!" Huh? The "average American" (of certain generations) uses the Imperial system because thats what we were taught, not because we need to be different. I would think thats evident? Youde have to confirm with @Hurlsnot, but I think they teach the metric system in school nowadays?
  7. Roughly $7.25 / gallon! There would be rioting in the streets if that was the price here. Right now, the 89 octane costs $3.80 / gallon.
  8. You know, my wife was just voicing her displeasure over the gas bill and I looked over her shoulder...gas increased in price from .21 in Jan 2021 to .63 in Jan 2022. Im gonna need some UBI or Ill never financially recover from this. WTH! How many gallons is that?
  9. Ive never met an Australian that I didnt like. And theyre super fun to party with.
  10. Watched the first three episodes that @Hiro Protagonist linked. Not bad!
  11. Just fyi, the edit function is located under the three dots in the top right of each post.
  12. Go to Mexico (Playa del carmen area). For ~4k, including airfare, two people can live like kings. I dont like sweating in the jungle, but theres plenty of ruins and cenotes to see if thats your jam and the resorts are all inclusive.
  13. What!? No way! It was fiercely defended in the last thread that Russia would only supply cheaper gas than the US, not immediately use it as a weapon! Im flabbergasted.
  14. Weird pivot, but ok. Did you know that there are also acceptable limits for; insects / feces / blood / etc. Never, ever, look too deeply into a slaughterhouse.
  15. Jaw-Dropping View of The Milky Way Reveals Mysterious Structures Dangling in Space.
  16. The key phrase here is global production. My point was, if Tiawan gets bumrushed, the US should be able to support itself if it stops exporting the "chips" that are manufactured here. And we have hella potatoes.
  17. Tiawan produces 51% of the global chip market. Everyone needs them in the short term. The US still produces 12% of the global market (link) so that would probably hold us over if we stopped exporting them.
  18. "Up in here" being Slovakia?
  19. Valve's Steam Deck Finally Has a Release Date.
  20. Landmark Poverty Experiment Shows Extra Money Changes Babies' Brains. See! Incontrovertible proof that UBI will fix all of our societal ills. Get in my pocket!
