  • I had to fiddle with my own on my old laptop, I used one of the plethora of github scripts, but then they changed the api to limit access to (I think) about 100/min, so I just changed the delays to 1000ms so it would only delete 60/min.

    Took two weeks, but I still haven’t seen any old content pop back up outside of archives and quotes from other comments in the thread.

    I search for a couple random things I remember saying on ddg/bing/Google whenever I think about it, so far nothing.

    As I’ve said before about certain countries, you know your platform is doing well when you (essentially) tell people “No, sorry, you can’t leave.”






  • The people who blabber incessantly about weed being a gateway drug are the exact REASON that I agree with them, but we VERY much disagree on the specifics.

    Think of it this way:

    Every adult in your life has told you that weed is JUST AS BAD as heroin and cocain and meth. You hear it repeated ad nauseum, ESPECIALLY if you were in DARE.

    Now one day someone you have known for a long time offers you some because “it’s not that bad, trust me you’ll be fine” and they go ahead and take a puff or twelve. Turns out it’s not that bad. They were fine after some initial uncoordinated attempts at doing something.

    So if weed is this interesting, maybe heroin isn’t that bad either?

    Yeah turns out heroin IS that bad, and lumping it in with weed is like tossing the kindergarten bully into a maxsec prison.

    So yeah, it’s only a “gAtEwAy dRuG” because you fucks lied for decades and made false equivalence of things and taught kids they can’t trust you.







  • I mean, it’s orbit isn’t exactly a secret from anyone who actually looks at the space for a living, or tracks things in orbit for a living.

    Anything new will be visible, it still is going to reflect light and all the stealth tech in the world can’t (yet) make something invisible to the eye.

    That little dot that keeps zooming above every 90 minutes or so that wasn’t there a week ago is a good candidate…

    Having said that this is not someone who did this for a job. It was a hobbyist. I’ve seen some impressive hobby shops but it’s still a very impressive feat.

    Besides I’m sure if it were launched with spacex, even NK probably already has a full briefing provided by certain a certain rat on everything they knew about the Initial launch.


  • I pick up all the ones I see because I’m collecting the batteries out of them. After making sure they won’t spontaneously combust through damaged seals or corrosion, they get a piece of painters tape over all the metal, and placed in a fireproof battery charging bag.

    I intend to make little rc things out of these, or in some cases I’ve managed to replace the 2 AA batteries in electronics with a few vape batteries in parallel.

    With the right testing equipment and know-how (safety first when dealing with things that can burn your life down) You can do quite a bit with these.

    And holy shit the amount I find while just walking or biking around is insane, these things are an environmental disaster and I’ve tried to get people I know to at least switch to refillable tanks, but they’re “too expensive” (only up-front, long term they are many orders of magnitude cheaper) and “it’s too much work to clean/replace coils” (alcohol and cotton batting for both cleaning and coil filler work nicely) which just tells me they care more about their minor convenience than the entire goddamn planet.

    I don’t even fucking vape and I know these things!








  • FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY:

    If you wanted to pierce YOUR OWN TIRE for some reason, if you place a nail under a tire, (assuming you considered roll angle) it would pierce a tire quite nicely.

    Rubber would seal pretty well to make it a slow leak, but cutting a channel into the side with an angle grinder or dremmel would help.

    For maximum air leakage, take a 1/4in or 3/8 in steel pipe, then cut it into 4 in bars, then cut those bars in half with a diagonal cut. Place sharp end into tire groove.

    Again, this is for educational purposes only if you wanted to get air out of your tire very quickly.
