      no, it’s a southern thing.

      but people around here look down on me just because i am pretty dark. come to think of it, same deal in japan, and at the european company i worked for, too, particularly the germans.

      Yet another way to gouge college students.

      Britney Nguyen  /  Aug 5  /  Tech Insider, News, Media One of the biggest textbook publishers is tired of not making any money when you buy a used textbook — and wants to explore using NFTs to get a cut One of the biggest textbook publishers is tired of not making any money when you buy a used textbook — and wants to explore using NFTs to get a cut

      Pearson's CEO Andy Bird told reporters moving to the blockchain and NFTs would allow the textbook publisher to get sales every time a book is resold.

      i guess i still dont understand how NFT works. how would it allow them to make money every time a text book is sold?

      I think it’s like crypto where the data passes from one person to another and is tied to their key or something. You would have to ask Hog about that because he understands that bitcoin shit and could consult for you. Or ask Lithu because it sounds like a scam and he knows about that stuff (see Lithustars).

      so without a crypto -key i cannot open the book?

      i mean if the book is just a pdf or something then i get it, but if its a physical book i dont understand

      Yeah it wouldn’t work if the book is physical.

      You wonder how Supermans poop would have fucked up the sewerage systems.

      Maybe he poops into the cape which gives him superpowers.

      He has powers as a kid presumably before he has a cape. Maybe GM Kansas cornfields gave him superpowers? I’m guessing as an infant his powers weren’t that significant, as a toddler tantrum with those powers would spell doom. So there must be a point at which some external factor triggered the powers, or an age at which his powers became visible. Puberty perhaps?

      They had trouble keeping him in jeans after he passed through puberty.

      Now find the chart for emissions over the last 100 years.

      That may be interesting since the population was much lower and factories were all coal fired.

      any coal that isn’t anthracite is dumping a lot of carbon.

      ummm, nope. you got it backwards.

      The (arithmetic) average emission factors obtained from the individual samples (assuming complete combustion) (Table FE4)(10) confirm the long-recognized finding that anthracite emits the largest amount of carbon dioxide per million Btu, followed by lignite, subbituminous coal, and bituminous coal.

      Carbon Dioxide Emission Factors for Coal

      perhaps you were thinking of sulphur emissions, not CO2?

      incidentally, if you want a given thermostat to flow more coolant and run at a lower temperature, just drill one or more 5/16" holes in the flange. it will take longer to warm up, though.

      last month i added 5 such holes to the thermostat of one of my bigger diesel tractors, 100 hp. it had been peaking around 250F under full load, and i wanted it cooler. those 5 holes brought the temp down to 200F.

      Maryland

      one of my farmer neighbors 12 miles down the valley was complaining about having to take his family on vacation to the coast because his wife insists on it every year. when i asked him where, he said “ABOUT A HALF INCH FROM THE DEVIL’S ASSHOLE”.

      when i pressed him further, he said “ocean city, maryland”.

      That’s the inspiration for the town in Steven Universe.

      wut

      It’s ok, literally not in your reality.

      i know, i looked it up yesterday. had never heard of it.

      so which side of that fantasy town is a half inch from the devil’s asshole?

      Upset over LGBTQ books, a Michigan town defunds its library in tax vote | Bridge Michigan Upset over LGBTQ books, a Michigan town defunds its library in tax vote | Bridge Michigan

      Voters in Jamestown Township, near Grand Rapids, rejected a renewal of an operations millage for the community’s public library Tuesday, leaving the library’s future in doubt. Those leading the effort said the library was indoctrinating children.

      why do you hate democracy in action?

      Cause Salem Witch trial thinking and general ignorance?

      “their town, their government, their taxes, their vote.”

      I can’t use force of law to change it and wouldn’t want a government that could.

      But I sure as hell can mock them for being ass backwards hillbillies destroying major institutions.

      @Kilemall and the removal of Boris is a good example. Goes too far, gets deposed. No significant protests, no civil disobedience, no ugly scenes of violent outrage

      Maybe it’s just a British thing. We eradicated the bears, we hunted the wolves to extinction. All we’ve got now is badgers and foxes

      more’s the pity. your heyday is long past.

      Still not a bad place to live. There are plenty of places in a worse state

      i guess that bodes well for the foxes and badgers in your area, then.

      Sounds like BS to me. We don’t randomly shoot off HARMS hoping the other side turns on their tracking radars while it’s in the air.

      Could be ground launched on detection of radar on. But you would have to be awfully close…

      Yeah, it’s possible but not ideal to use them as ground launched weapons according to this long ass article.
