ryathal,

A lot of the problems with Linux are the same problems Lemmy has, so it’s a really good point.

ryathal,

1812 when the Whitehouse was burning. The great depression/dustbowl. Mccartyism era, Vietnam War, Civil rights protests and race riots…

ryathal,

You know mail order guns were a thing for a while right? Even fully automatic stuff.

ryathal,

Exceptions for active military can work because they are subject to the far more strict ucmj. Cops are a real problem though, they kill 1000 or so people every year with minimal consequence.

ryathal,

Private ownership of guns is allowed, asking why anyone needs it is non sequitur.

You need to decide if you are ok with living in a free society or not. In a free society people are going to be able to do bad stuff sometimes.

ryathal,

Reagan dismantled the mental health institutions which were commonly abusive to patients and featured no objective pathway to release for those committed. They were basically prisons for the mentally ill and undesirable that hadn’t already committed crimes. They did successfully isolate a handful of truly dangerous people though.

ryathal,

If you cook with less water, you need to stir.

ryathal,

What’s so bad about enders game. I don’t remember that being a bad adaptation, but it’s been a while.

ryathal,

No debt is good, but a mortgage is at least not bad if it’s affordable.

ryathal,

The overly sweet crap at most restaurants can go straight in the trash.

ryathal,

You’re right about exercise. I’d go even farther and say don’t even bother with dedicated exercise if you’re just starting to lose weight, because it’s completely irrelevant to the weight loss part.

ryathal,

She also had the dragons burn the unsullied makers, and some Westeros knights, an was talked down from a handful of bad ideas she wanted to do.

ryathal,

It only feels grounded because you get her pov and the other side is obviously bad (according to her), so they totally deserved it. She showed up to several cities, murdered the fuck out of them, took what she wanted and left. Yes the turn to full on evil was handled poorly, but all the signs were there before hand. Tyrion’s speech after the fact said as much.

ryathal,

The union said they weren’t allowed to leave and won, so technically they didn’t leave. That’s what makes civil wars difficult, you have to find a way to live with the losing side after.

ryathal,

There also still Americans, which is what makes civil wars more complicated.

ryathal,

If you really like the location you might consider trying to negotiate a vastly reduced price for the land and do a demo and rebuild.

ryathal,

If you aren’t comfortable with managing repairs, walk away. The repairs will likely take months and can be very disruptive.

It sounds like there are some very pricey repairs, chimneys are generally expensive and require specialized masons. Replacing windows can be expensive, but if the house doesn’t have double pane windows, the insulation benefits can offset the cost.

The biggest worry is the moisture issues, rising damp and bad window frames could mean significant water damage is discovered as part of repairs. Cracked walls can also be a big deal depending on the root cause, foundation issues are really bad.

ryathal,

You must not be in the US, Aldi is the only place I’ve ever seen sitting cashiers in the US.

ryathal,

Straight to hell. Suprised you managed to type this out before the demons got you.

ryathal,

States that mandate signs about lane closures being really far out claim it makes traffic flow better. In my experience it just makes traffic stop in a different spot and is likely worse than zipper merges.

ryathal,

My first thought is what does this have to do with the grinch.
