Yeah that’s what the gov agency said about it around the time of the Flint water crisis. “Allegedly” is the key word here. Thats when I read a whole bunch of research on it. Could have been complete bullshit, who knows.

You think about that and the actions of the USSR gov, depicted in the HBO series Chernobyl, and you have to wonder if the US response would be much different. Three Mile Island would probably like a word.

With the pitcher filters, be sure to change the filter often and scrub the pitcher/tank often. Algae can grow in them, causing all sorts of issues.

This is why Obama didn’t really address the flint Michigan water situation. Once they started testing there, other cities would start. Boom, national crisis. ALLEGEDLY the coating that forms on the inside protects against lead poisoning but, who knows. And if chemistry changes drastically, like Flint’s case, it can remove that naturally occurring coating.

Oh there would be plenty of strokes, I’ll grant you that.

That’s a bit like emptying the sewer into the street

Same. Luckily you can add his name to the block list.

Gotta pay for those skyrocketing AI server bills somehow

If the original SeaLab tests in the 60s were any indication, YES. Check out Scott Carpenter’s voice on this recording with LBJ. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3wkh6s

It would be super interesting to know more background on these donations. One has to wonder if there was some sort of solicitation going on. Did somebody leave a note on his windshield? I’m willing to bet there was.

I’m going with Nikola Tesla. Just imagine having THAT tasteless shit gibbon slap your name on a product and making gobs of cash off it. The fact Tesla hasn’t awakened from the dead to haunt his ass proves there’s no spirit world. If ANYONE could/would do it, it would have been Nikola Tesla.

I would suggest you wipe the drive and reinstall the os fresh. The experience you describe is not typical at all. I would also run some hardware diagnostics while you were at it.

Sure there are bugs here and there, of which I complain about a lot. But this is something else.

The only people who make money on Spotify is Spotify. Support artists directly if you want them to continue to create.

But sure, keep drug testing the kids flipping burgers at McDonald’s.

$106 for 1.2G cable in Oregon, US - when it works. Praying for the day we get fiber in our neighborhood - it was infinitely better. They DO list a data cap but never enforce it. I think if they did, the town would burn down the office.

Allegedly. I personally knew a pilot who flew weekly trips in the 70s to Asia in C-130s filled to the maximum load of gold. So I have my doubts. Several years ago there was a push from Congress to inspect the gold reserves because nobody had laid verifiable eyes on it in a while. But I do not know how that worked out. It’s a great rabbit hole for you to follow - let us know what you find!

I was just about to ask why the fuck anyone would give a shit about what happens over on reddit, then I noticed the sub. Let that shit hole die and crumble into obscurity already. We moved to our own place for a reason. Fuck ‘em feed ‘em fish heads.

With skill and determination

I’m surprised to not see WD-40 topping this list.

For literally decades, it has been Stray Cat Strut. Although fairly recently, it has switched to Epic by Faith No More. The latter I cannot explain. The song is pretty terrible., and I’m not a fan of the band. It’s gotta mean something, right?
