I murdered a bat by grabbing him with my toes and throwing him across the room while I was half asleep. I thought he was a sock. The rabies prophylaxis was a small measure of revenge for him.

Me too

Yeah horse messengers were only really a thing when you could change horses at stations. That’s the whole point of the marathon. It’s based on the history of a foot messenger (at a time when we very much had domesticated horses).

I got stung/bit by one of those little bastards once in the shower. Usually they don’t bother humans and their mouth stingers(kind of like legs that are turned into venomous fangs for killing other bugs) can’t really go deep enough, but I guess this one got motivated once he started drowning and crawled up my leg.

I wish we could roll up the executive branch with an unspecified RICO charge. We’ll hit the entire US government with it. Unfortunately testifying as such to a committee just makes you deranged.

Some pre human carnivorous hominids had diets dependent on hippos. Hunting hippos with stone tools and pre true language is some serious shit

In the end, if you’ve got enough spears and people to throw them, there ain’t much else to do.

I don’t know if heavy water plants leaking tritium in their wastewater should be used as a good standard for the longevity of old reactor designs.

Their 40 year license with the nuclear regulatory commission ran out and they felt that getting it relicensed was too expensive. Yeah a bunch of folks were hyperbolic about it, but holding a 40 year old reactor to modern standards isn’t bad either. It’s still economics that is holding nuclear back.

Sure, but you can do that on a yacht just as effectively and get a sun tan while you’re at it.

Maybe their proposed market is evil albino billionaires. I think only Bera Ivanishvili qualifies.

I thought pure land Buddhism was pretty dogmatic in how you get the Buddha to let you be reborn into the pure land

Well what sort of talents does your ball sack have? I bet you’d make some money on Lemmy if you could document your ballsack installing arch on a computer it built.

They’re appealing the denial of motion to dismiss huh? I agree that this case really doesn’t have legs but I didn’t know that was an interlocutory appeal that they could do. They’d win in summary judgement regardless.

It can be submerged but it can’t cruise on batteries for 4 weeks. It’ll have to put it’s snorkel up.

Unless it’s a nuke sub that lets your rich ass just disappear under the water I don’t see the point. Cruising around under the surface with a snorkel up on diesel engines just seems like a straight downgrade. Why even go out of your bunker.

Don’t bring up partially hydrogenated vegetable oil here. You’re gonna jinx us and make fake meat kill everybody.

Jacksonville is actually a very busy port but mostly for roll on/roll off (cars). Still, I think that having states that will put you in jail for selling or manufacturing products might hamper your ability to do interstate business and maintain warehouses for your grocery stores.

They’re actually setting up the board with some big criminal penalties for selling it. It’ll have a cross state freezing effect on the vendors as a whole and transportation through states. They’re going full drug war on it. I didn’t expect their need for cattle farmer votes to be so acute.

Alabama also passed a bill to ban the sale and manufacturing of it, making it a Class C felony.

What in the fuck is going on in these guys heads. I get being beholden to the cattle industry but this shit is beyond that

Oh don’t worry, they’re not giving him the real spy satellite optics for these flying digital cameras. A low orbit trash satellite cluster that will waste itself in no time is just a nice thing for the DoD to shovel money into.

Each keyhole satellite, by comparison, costs $1 billion.
