rjsilverthorn 05/24/21 1:05:14 AM #20 | ParanoidObsessive posted... I'd also throw this one into the mix, though I suspect not a lot of people remember it ever existed. Or would nominate it for something like this even if they did:I remember that show. I was actually reading a synopsis of it not that long ago because I was trying to remember the premise. Another 70's one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pa1fH0SvGPg |

That seems like a lot of money, more than most people would have on hand I thinkMaybe, but you can get a bail bond company to post the bail money. You pay between 10-20% of the bail amount and you don't get it back, but you don't have to front the full bail up front. |

They need to be gauged to ensure proper spark And the spark erodes the electrode over time, gradually increasing the gap. captpackrat posted... That plug is stuck and I can't get it out. That is always a fun time especially since there is frequently insufficient space to use anything with decent leverage. |

rjsilverthorn 04/25/21 10:25:01 AM #8 | dragon504 posted... I'm not super hyped for the series tbh. Nothing I've seen has made me optimistic. Do want to reread the series though. Neither do I, in no small part due to the fact that even the book series took a major downturn halfway through. |
Topic | Our power has been out for 24 hours |
rjsilverthorn 04/23/21 12:51:47 PM #2 | Mead posted... This shit sucks. They originally said it would be back up by noon yesterday and just kept pushing the time back every couple hours. According to their outage site they didnt even start actually working on the repair until about an hour ago. We had two multi-day outages last year so I feel your pain. We lost pretty much everything in our fridge the first time around because it was nearly impossible to get ice due to the scale of the outage. |
Topic | 'God-awful blast' that rocked several southern NH towns was a gender reveal |
rjsilverthorn 04/23/21 12:12:28 PM #25 | papercup posted... Honestly, probably a gun store. Tannerite is used to make explosive practice targets. It is also sold as components rather than as the complete explosive, so it isn't regulated as an explosive. Seems weird but when you consider the number of common things that could be combined into explosives I guess it makes sense. Blightzkrieg posted... If guns are banned people will just commit murder with practice targets smhYou actually need a gun, or some equivalent shock, to set it off. Edit-It occurred to me how American an explosive you need to shoot is. |
Topic | 'God-awful blast' that rocked several southern NH towns was a gender reveal |
rjsilverthorn 04/23/21 11:49:51 AM #23 | Red_Frog posted... I don't get it. How much would they have used otherwise? Or is it like, one explosion for outie and two for innie?The 'official' version is apparently color coded https://www.scheels.com/p/tannerite-gender-reveal-boom-box/16197-GRK.html I would note it also uses substantially less than 80lbs. |

rjsilverthorn 04/23/21 1:28:06 AM #4 | HelIWithoutSin posted... The probe also found that Puerto Rico is an island surrounded by water, big water, ocean water. Did they find that it is part of the US? That seems to be something lost on a lot of people in the government. |

rjsilverthorn 04/21/21 9:30:01 PM #6 | Hop103 posted... It's unfeasible and too expensive due to country size and the US being car centric That and our lawsuit culture. Every major road and rail project gets tied up in years of lawsuits. |

Topic | With all the talk about renewable energy, I don't know why nuclear is ignored. |
rjsilverthorn 04/20/21 8:41:34 AM #2 | There has been a lot of research into various new types of nuclear, but it isn't as PR sexy as things like solar so it doesn't tend to hit main stream news as much. https://www.energy.gov/ne/articles/analysis-fy2020-spending-bill-points-nuclear-resurgence https://www.energy.gov/ne/articles/11-reasons-why-doe-all-new-nuclear The biggest issue with nuclear, aside from all the historical baggage, is the waste problem. We already have decades of nuclear waste that nobody wants in their backyard and every time we have a plan for long term storage the government gets sued to stop it. |

rjsilverthorn 04/17/21 12:19:41 PM #12 | adjl posted... Fair. I was thinking more in terms of laypeople, but that wouldn't necessarily apply to Spock. Except the audience that is actually watching the joke are laypeople and even non-laypeople wouldn't get the joke if they used some made up term for it. |
Topic | Spock hears Beastie Boys Sabotage asks McCoy if it's 'classical music' |
rjsilverthorn 04/16/21 4:29:31 PM #8 | It is actually McCoy that asks if it is Classical music and Spock responds "Yes doctor, it would seem to be." |
Topic | Started One Piece. I don't get it. |
rjsilverthorn 04/14/21 2:03:21 PM #6 | It does pick up the pace, but it is still a slow moving series as far as the overall story goes. It also becomes more serious as the series progresses. Early on it is similar to the original Dragon Ball while the later seasons are much more Dragon Ball Z. I stopped reading/watching years ago and I probably won't pick it back up until the series ends. |

Topic | What does Everest base camp mean? |
rjsilverthorn 04/05/21 4:18:56 PM #3 | FatalAccident posted... Ive always took it to mean its a base camp ie home as in the camp where they set off to climb Everest.There are only two base camps, one in Nepal and one in China. There are limited places where you can climb Everest so it isn't like you can just show up and plop a camp down anywhere you want around the mountain. |

rjsilverthorn 04/05/21 1:33:46 PM #12 | Metalsonic66 posted... I also remember smoking sections at McDonald's Which would be directly next to the non-smoking sections because its just one big open space. All the trashcans and tables had ash trays on them. |
