The cycle:

Step 1: (as a child) "wow this movie was great, I love Greek stuff!"

Step 2: learns a ton about Greek mythology over the next many years due to interest sparked by the movie

Step 3: (likely as a teenager or older, re-watching it one day) "holy shit this movie is absolutely nothing like Greek mythology, why did I ever think it was good..."

I don't know, I think I could get a pretty dangerous gladiatorial fight between my nieces and nephews with real swords.

I doubt any of them can swing hard enough to sever a head, but fingers aren't out of the question.

Oh don't worry, they still are.

Just not domestically.

That and they have way more free time to play endless hours of that game...

taH pagh taHbe'!

Oooh, nice interrobang.

At full sun in winter, I get enough power to charge a battery in about 4 hours.

With pedal assist, I get about 6-7 hours of cycling.

Adding in the trailer weight and terrain/clouds depending, the roughly 1200w of power are more than enough to keep me going during daylight.

That guy needs to use a better panel, and lighter trailer. I've seen people who do exactly what I'm wanting to do. Checking the comments, people are more or less saying the same thing.

I disagree with his assessment, but I do like his style, so thanks for introducing me to a new channel!

I've got some 300w solar panels, a couple electric bikes, and extra batteries I've been wanting to hook up on some kind of trailer to give myself effectively unlimited range.

I'm sure whoever finds my stash after the world ends will enjoy it since I'll probably be dead.

As I've been getting more physical copies of my favorites, I've been looking into backing up all my physical dvds on digital storage so I don't have to handle the actual dvd and risk scratching it.

Yes, but now they can't say they didn't know it was in there.

And they can't say "I voted for it because the rest of the bill does good for _____"

So it would help prevent them from keeping their mask on

I'm hoping for hamster-sized dragon.

Not all of us can live on Hysperia.

"Well if the game is too dark, then we would notice in the video and besides small children being afraid of the dark, you can just turn up the screen brightness"

And as we all know, if the military goes without approved funding limits, it completely breaks down and becomes useless overnight.

Sure would be nice if every single citizen of the united states gets to personally bitch slap every member of congress, presidential cabinet, vp, pres, etc... When a completely unrelated thing gets shoved into a bill.

There is 0 reason an (hypothetical) infrastructure bill for new sprinklers in hospitals needs to include a provision that Wisconsin dairy farms get a new milking machine. Those two things have nothing to do with each other. So why are they in the same bill.

If you want it to be a bill, put it in its own separate proposal.

I sent this to some friends with my own added text of "Russia: doing a genocide. Israel: totally a-ok, no genocide here, carry on"

One of the people surprised me with a "how can you possibly think Russia isn't trying to genocide Ukraine" and was completely flabbergasted that I was actually suggesting that Israel fucking is.

Even if that's the way you think, I thought my sarcasm was perfectly clear and would be obvious to them what my stance is...

You think you know some people.

My favorite part of control is how they go into juuuuuuust a little bit of explaining how things work in a science way, and sometimes you can almost feel how things are connected, and then it's like "Yeah we have no fucking clue how any of this actually works, we're just trying to keep it all from destroying the universe and keeping notes along the way."

And then you meet the next thing that almost makes sense. Until it doesn't.

I don't remember if I ever finished AW but I do believe I have the disk around here somewhere. The control dlc definitely rekindled my interest.

Okay but like... If I only have a pile like.... A foot tall...

Will the dragon be hamster sized, Chihuahua sized, great Pyrenees size, or bear size?

Cause depending on the answer, I have some saving to do...
