Yeah, I could live with that. I don’t know that the Fair Tax proposition itself is necessarily what we should go with, but something like that would work fine for me. Even if it has its drawbacks, I think it would be a better option. Clearly the way we do things already has some pretty enormous drawbacks. I figure at…

Where I grew up, in rural Iowa, you could buy a decent house for $80k. It’s the same reason I can’t support a uniform minimum wage, the same dollar isn’t worth the same amount in different parts of the country.

Tax credit per person would solve that. I don’t know a lot about it, but from the bits I’ve heard it sounds like a possible solution. Basically it’s a flat tax except that you’re exempt for the first $___ of income.

Honestly I don’t even care if that works well or if there are arguments against it. If it won’t kill…

I would recommend Dr Feelgood. He’s the one that makes me feel alright.

I bought an LC90 last time they were on sale, they are very bright.

Some of us are bad at humility, we like knowing how things work and we like to think that we understand systems we haven’t seen before, it’s an ego thing. I just want to learn more about it than I know at this point. I can now fix some of the basic problems I’ve had on my car in the past, but that’s more or less the…

Honestly I read Jalopnik mostly to look at pictures of cars. I don’t know that much about them. And I’m an engineer. You would think I might know some things about cars, but I really don’t. So yeah, many many women know more about cars than me.

At a certain point, though, you’re not just drying the raisins anymore, you’re cooking them. That’s what I wondered about, but the source article clarified a few things:

“Fructose, the primary sugar in grapes, doesn’t begin to caramelize until it hits 230°F (110°C). Given how water-laden grapes are and the fact that…

Just call it vintage

can you get replica kits of these?

Idk about botting, more like “golfing,” the old strategy of putting a golf ball on a keyboard to hold a key down. Same thing though more or less, “playing” the game while not being there. Should be some sort of AFK timeout, I wouldn’t think it would be too hard to implement.

I bet it would work to just use an old styrofoam cooler.

Our enormous nuclear dicks are getting too old. We need newer, bigger dicks to wave at our enemies.

Get used to it man, this is was a Gawker site, and most of that garbage ended up on Gizmodo after Gawker got sued out of existence. It’s why I stick to just Jalopnik and Kotaku now, they aren’t as preachy as Gizmodo. If you want good tech news, I switched to Ars Technica.

We could get rid of half of our military and still win WW3, I think we’re okay.

large explosions tend to kill people that just happen to be standing nearby and don’t necessarily deserve it.

I want an old kei car with a new motorcycle engine dropped in there

I picked one up the last time a cheap bidet on sale was posted here, definitely worth it. The only downside of the cheap ones is that it’s cold water.

Some of the old folks in rural Iowa where I grew up would do this, one of my dad’s landlords used to call his wife Mother, he was in his 80s. I think it’s sort of a midwestern archaism.
