Really? I have no attraction to dudes so I’m not talking as an expert but... those legs looks comically grotesque and kind of creepy.... no?

Inexpensive, commercial, suborbital spaceflight on a reusable platform isn’t a stunt, it’s world-changing tech. It’s one step closer to making outer space a place where there are commonly significant numbers of people.

Most wicks for rockets are waterproof.and they have their own oxidizer.

Great way to kill all the fish in the lake for no good reason. Stupid humans.

Same here. I still have that 1TB external hard drive from when I torrented heavily, and I have no problem dusting it off and getting back to pirating if they make the paid, legal route too much of a pain in the ass again.

That’s pretty much the only reason for me to be honest. Having the ability to choose what to play is neat in theory, but I usually can never decide what to watch; with cable, they decide for you and it’s easy. But I can’t do commercials, and I ain’t going back to that. I’ll pirate, and if I don’t do that for whatever…

I’d just cancel my subscription if they did that. If I’m gonna get a cheaper-yet-still-shitty version of cable a la Hulu Plus then I’ll just pirate my media again, fuck it.

The only reason I use Netflix is because I don’t want to download everything I ever want to watch. I will cancel Netflix with the first ad I see. Third party or not. I will buy myself more TBs HDDs, torrent, and watch ad free.

No i don’t have HBO. And that’s not the point. The Internet was built on a “free content =ads, paid content = ad free” model. When you pay for something you don’t expect to be hit with ads. It’s bad enough that on top of the previews we get ads at the movie theater now, we shouldn’t just sit back and take it for home…

Fuck that fucking horseshit. I pay whatever fucking dollars every fucking month for a particular level of service. If they want to show me adds, even for their own fucking shit, they can cut me a fucking discount.

One of the main reasons I pretty much exclusively use Netflix for my entertainment is because it doesn’t have commercials ... I barely watch regular television anymore because I can’t stand the mind numbing torture of constant marketing

if i pay for something i should not get ads. period...no shut up. I don’t care about your graphs and charts and fancy powerpoints. I pay you money for ad free tv, that is what i expect to get. otherwise we may need to reconsider this arrangmenet. because belive it or not Netflix, i can live without you. I’ll use the…

Hmmm.... yeah... the moment I see an ad pop up while I’m using my paid subscription to watch shows over any of my consoles, I’m canceling my service and going to Hulu.

I’ll quit. I quit Hulu over ads, I won’t hesitate to quit Netflix as well.

Is it that freaking hard to use common sense and not reach for something with exposed rotors spinning fast enough to sustain flight?

The amount of sap running after they limbed it up puts the dead tree theory to bed. The circulatory system of that tree was very healthy. Dutch Elm is a circulatory disease so that does noot seem to fit either.

Whatever the reason, it’s got to be better than the reason they cut down a nice big old (but very healthy, and clearly not dangerous) tree near my childhood house (also in the Seattle area): To add a single (that’s one, 1) parking spot...

I would be very curious as to the reason it was cut down. From the video, the tree itself looked to be fine - no obvious rot. Maybe its own weight was pulling it apart. Or the neighborhood was complaining about the 8.6 trillion tons of leaves that would come down every year. But you can also see it partway in the…

Why was it cut down? Did it die? I hope it wasn’t just because some asshole wanted to build furniture with ‘unique’ wood.

“Seattle’s largest elm tree”......... “cut down piece by piece”...... great...... just great ...
