Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said, or A Scanner Darkly. Definitely something by Dick.

I can’t tell if it’s an Americanized version of lighter or litre.

The worst part is, after you block all the foreign language communities, all the Linux, all the loli anime, there’s very little left.

And all that and no mention of other types of anodes. In fresh water boats use magnesium.

Seed oil.

Dorsey doesn’t seem to have actually described any of those other ways of compensation

Let me guess, blockchain!

It was big when I was going through art school. I thought it was a big heap of bullshit.

People think you go to art school and the teachers there teach you how to draw. It’s not a technical school, you’re not a pencil operator. The teachers teach you how to look at what you’re drawing and what you’ve drawn. You are responsible for teaching your hand how to draw. Draw often, draw everything, draw always.

I found fairly early in my art career that I didn’t really love drawing and didn’t really care that my drawings were a little crude. I found greater enjoyment in other artistic endeavors and so did them instead.

TL;DR draw more.

I always read it as AL, like Albert.

It’s the ‘no brown m+m’s’ of global economic policy.

He’s launching a free speech holocaust.

Peace for our time.

Drywall is so cheap and easy, and leaks and failures so infrequent it doesn’t make sense to have “easy access” to the interior of walls. Drywall is the easy access.

Drop ceiling tiles are so fragile and ugly. Very laborious to install. Guests would do stupid things, like lift them up to snoop and put tuna cans up there and other nefarious stuff. The stack of tiles needed to outfit a hotel would be massive. To think drop ceilings are used in hotels defies logic.

It’s not a suspended ceiling, it’s a concrete slab. It’s probably a prestressed concrete slab and the lines are the individual panels. It could be poured in place but I doubt it as that would require a ton of form work and be very slow and expensive.

Is this to doxx me?..

LOL! No! What are you, some kind of mama’s boy? Speaking of your mama, what was her maiden name?

I saw someone share this sweet tip, share the article to Firefox, in the ff browser bar there’s a little page looking icon tap that and it goes into reader mode and removes soft pay walls. Sometimes you have to refresh the reader to get all the way past. 🍻

I like the breakfast tassels.

In Canada, those are pancakes. The ones you made are crepes. It’s a pan-cake because it’s cooked in a pan, and rises like a cake. They have baking soda which is a levening agent and makes bubbles and a (hopefully) light and fluffy product. Crepes are more like a tortilla, decidedly flat.

Pancakes are also called flapjacks for some reason.

When they say “burn up on reentry” they don’t mean disintegrate, they mean burn. It’s exactly like throwing thousands of home entertainment systems in a fire except that the pollution is in the upper atmosphere where normal pollution doesn’t reach.
