It's a pretty bad-ass design, my dream one day is to get a MUCH larger 3D printer so I can print them larger than 10-inch in diameter. Maybe I'll take the time to make molds which I can use to cast larger ones out of solid concrete.

Just rained it's ass off yesterday so it's full of fresh water right now haha

Love purple pitcher plants. I 3D print bog planters (imagine a pot intended to keep water swampy) and they love it. I actually just propagated the plant to make another pitcher plant in another freshly printed pot - they're so fun.

The brewery I hang out at sells the onewheels - they're an authorized dealer. The brewer and co-owners all have XR's which they ride all around town. It sounds great, they use them often.....

Except when you talk to them about their injuries... One guy fell and broke his wrist once, another guy broke and cracked a rib, the brewer broke his shoulder one time, then his wrist another time.

Yet they still ride them!!

I got a pint - rode it a few times until I few off once and haven't ridden it since. I'm looking forward to selling it soon enough.

Biiig difference to me - kinda annoying. I'm sure it'll grow on me eventually - but the show is loosing its pizazz, I hope they can turn it around.

Cool, can't wait for the first season to drop, everyone be pissed that it's not the original office, and then the series is abruptly cancelled after two seasons if they even make it to season two.

I know someone who made some money on bitcoin (enough to 'retire' in his 30's) - he's proud of his NFT collection and even has a large print of one of those dumb apes which he owns lol.

I don't hear him talking much about cryptos and such these days. (Instead I hear a lot more about how it's "over" for Ukraine any day now, lol)

Everyone has a unique identifier. If you don't share that with anyone, how would they know who's vote it is? Couldn't the number be randomized and a new UUID provided on a routine basis?

Every American has a Social Security number, but it's not exactly like we're told to broadcast it to the world...... I don't see why something like that couldn't be implemented here using technology.

My point is the general ledger technology of the blockchain which would be beneficial here.

But of course this is all a pipe dream. America is damn near a Kleptocracy and both political parties have written laws to prevent a third political party from ever arising.

I'd love to see that happen, But it's because America won't switch to a direct democracy. Instead we have a Kleptocracy run by corporations and the 1% who have power over both parties in America. However if it were possible to create a third political party where every member of the party earns only one vote maybe it would give people power back over corporations. But it's a pipe dream, I know it'll never happen.

I personally envision a future where we use blockchain technology to create a new direct democracy party in which every member has a unique identifier and the blockchain ledger system used to track polling data. Every individual member of the party would have one vote in each poll at ever level (federal, state, regional, etc) - for every single thing that gets a vote, and the elected politician representing that party would be required to vote based on the polling data.

Everyone would have access to a copy of the ledger to confirm their votes are counted accurately, and they can review polling data to confirm their elected politicians are voting based on polling data, and the representative would be replaced if they do not adhere to the results

Yeah, I certainly won't use any product associated with that muskrat.

Lol, good.

I mean they used all the iron to make the hull, you think they had any leftover to make a railing around the whole damn ship? gtfoh

I've been so tempted to make and sell custom flags printed with pro-Biden/LGBTQ themes, then have pro-trump messaging printed on top using a water-soluble ink so that these idiots would hang the flags proudly like they always do........only to have the flags change completely the first time it rains hahaha. I'd love to see them frantically trying to pull down a flag in a rainstorm 😂

Few years older than you, decided not to have children after considering our healthcare, the climate, politics, etc. Why would I ever bring a child into this hell?

Someone else recently explained it best: It's elderly abuse.

The entourage encircling these elderly congressional leaders are profiting greatly. As soon as these senators retire, these leeches lose nearly everything.

It's a Weekend At Bernie's movie plot, but with extra steps.

That's what we need to do more often - mock these chuckfucks. Don't get angry/irritated because that's what they want, just point and laugh at them.

Oh I'm not disagreeing with you that it's a bullshit reason - but I can bet that some penny pincher accountant working at McDonalds proved the company could save $X million (single digit lol) if they did this change. Never forget how a dude working for American Airlines in the 1980's figured out that removing one olive from each salad in first class would save over $40k per year.

The more tactile, the better I say. The clickity clack is just an added bonus.

I don't think people know how much pride McDonalds takes in their soda machines. They are kinda strict about them - the water must be chilled to a certain temperature (I think it's a trade secret, but probably like 35F lol) so it retains higher carbonation, and they have a higher ratio of syrup to water so it tastes better than their competitors.

This is likely due to to abuse by people who helped themselves to multiple free refills, including people who haven't bought anything but sneaking in to get a free drink (it's like $0.10 per drink, I get it - but I'm sure to the penny pinchers trying to justify their executive job, that translates into millions in revenue lost per year for the corporation).

Friend of mine lives within walking distance of the gas station where he was just spotted. She's on lockdown, helicopters flying overhead, schools are closed for the day, etc
