Dude, Knower is great. You should also check out songs like Time Traveller and Butts Tits Money

Don't even have to watch, I already know what song this is.

Edit: yep. The government knows.

One thing specifically about Irish vs Israeli is that, if I'm not mistaken, Ireland and Israel are not on remotely good terms and haven't been for a while. If the Israeli was a natural-born Israeli citizen they may have truly meant to piss Anon off.

You can get the files if you want, they're just very expensive and to the tune of hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars. Also they're typically encrypted and can only be played back on an approved projection system and you have to buy decryption keys every time you want to watch the movie. This is why theaters suck by the way, they have to pay for the movie, the ability to play the movie, the ability to take money in exchange for people seeing the movie, etc.

Then why the fuck did you bother to look it up? Click 'em you coward.

Bruh.

This was very similar to the act of using butterfly mines. Yes, Hezbollah were the ones who ordered them, but you cannot be certain that they were going to stay in hezbollah's hands. There are examples of these things going off in public places or in hospitals. This wasn't some crazy precision strike, this was just terrorism. They could have done things to reduce collateral, like detonating them at night so they blow up in people's homes instead of at a store, but instead it seems like they made decisions that would increase collateral (like detonating the bombs during the day, when they could blow up at a store).

Hell, imagine if one of those things had been on a plane? The blasts were big enough that it could have almost certainly punched a hole through a plane's hull if someone was sitting in a window seat.

If Israel had, I dunno, made a cellphone with a bullet in the speaker which got triggered when you received a call from known Hezbollah leaders, then I'd be more supportive of it. But planting bombs in electronics that could make their way out of hezbollah's hands and into civilian hands is a big no-no to me. And yes, pagers could make it into civilian hands, doctors still widely use them in many places including the US. I personally don't think it seems outside the realm of possibility that hezbollah might hand out extra pagers to hospitals for the purpose of creating a positive image with locals. Same reason why drug lords usually try to keep their territories clean and invest in local projects.

Edit: it's not laughing about Hezbollah getting fucked that makes me uncomfortable; by all means, fuck 'em, laugh it up. It's how they got fucked that makes me uncomfortable. That's why I'm not very into the idea of celebrating it.

I love evil Sims. They are so much fun to play, especially with mods. Nice Sims are too... real? Like, in order to have a nice or otherwise relatively normal sim, you kinda have to play them like a real person which can get too real. But evil sims can be played like a cartoon supervillain. My current crackhead is a hideously deformed twig named Shpingle Bab

Edit: also, in Sims 4 specifically I now have a tradition where Johnny Zest gets immediately marked as immortal whenever I start a new save because he becomes the neighborhood punching bag (thanks Vargskelethor for making this disproportionately amusing), his yard becomes the graveyard for that save, and the ghosts all get autonomous violence turned on. It's fun to sometimes just watch the ghosts fruitlessly trying to kill each other with the occasional passerby getting recruited to their ranks.

It is. I've kinda been meaning to get into it as a low-effort artistic hobby. However you're more likely to find matching puzzles made the same year by the same company than if you try to use puzzles from different years or different manufacturers (yes, some manufacturers share stencils).

I haven't, I've heard good things, I just haven't gotten around to watching it yet!

Edit: also, when it comes to the Orville, keep in mind that it starts out as a parody and gets more serious overtime. However, the Orville has 100% more female country music star cameos than star trek. That makes it better.

Yeah, no doubt it's a significant upgrade, the old vehicle's silhouette is just really iconic to me.

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 22 points 2 months ago (16 children)

I'm gonna miss the old design. The new one looks like someone smashed it with a looney tunes hammer.

I'm sure the patent made sense at the time, but it seems pretty generic now. Additionally, shouldn't the patent have expired at this point? Why is it still being enforced?
