If there was any object in your life that was cursed, what would it be?
  • I have a billiard break cue, it's hollow steel pipe with brass and galvanized fittings to screw it together. Based off the material, original colors, and general look it's probably from the early 70's.

    Without fail, if a drunk person finds out it's hollow they get super weird about it. They hand it back like it's a writhing appendage, avoid using it when offered, even had a guy drop it like it was gonna bite him. Either way, I play better with it than I ever did before, and I gave it a gorgeous glossy crimson repaint.

    People who pirated in the late 90s and early 00s what is the most dramatic change from then till now? And if you had the power what would you bring back?
  • In the aughts, pirates bay felt like the library of Congress. If a single commenter on a B tier forum saw it in a guy's basement in the mid 80's there was a sure bet at least 3 people were seeding it and one of them had great upload. If it wasn't there, you had a dozen different sites with their own dedicated fans posting everything you could ever want.

    Now it's maybe 6 sites, they all have the exact same listings, and the only things with seeds came out in the last year of two. It's like seeing your local library after a fire.

    can you guys please give me some street tips?
    1. Know where you are. Any trouble you get in gets so much worse when you're lost.

    2. Trust your gut. If you don't feel right about something it's better to be safe then sorry.

    3. Bar tenders and gas stations. If you need someone to help you, that's the best two options.

    For the fun: Weapons
  • I have a set of hikou prime that are modded for concealed explosives, fire rate, multishot, and negative accuracy. It throws 5 stars a shot, 15 shots a second, and if you pull the trigger and aren't in archwing over an open world you're on your back. It can be kind of viable at sortie level, but it's absolutely hilarious to give to defense targets.

    As a meme, I have it named "Clan Invitations" and use the playing card sentient skin for it because I'm the main recruiter for our clan.

    America’s 3D Printed Gun Problem Is Getting Worse and Spreading to the World
  • This feels a lot more like a dig on 3d printing. Frankly, it's the only thing you can tie to 3d printing to demonize it and I'd imagine there's a vested interest in demonizing people that don't pay a company for production.

  • Hey has anyone considered making a wine from peppers like jalapeno and sweet pepper?

    You'd probably need to add extra sugar, but I bet it could be an interesting flavor.

    How do you feel about Kamala Harris prosecuting thousands of people for smoking pot while she did the same thing?
  • Mainly I don't care. I'm voting to keep trump out.

    But since you asked, my judgement on that is the same on any crime. If you get caught, you're not good enough to be doing it. She didn't get caught, they did. Do you expect a, "sorry, I can't work this case. It's a conflict of interest because I get high too." or something? Workers don't turn themselves in when they steal from Walmart.

    Ancient city lore
  • Game theory on YouTube has a series of videos that posit the players as being the last remaining population of a long dead race of Master builders and Craftsman that ultimately died out or fled to a different plane of existence. You should give them a watch, it adds some fun things to think about.

    What's the most useless skill you've mastered, and how did you end up getting so good at it?
  • I can fluidly open a trash bag, pull it into a straight line, and toss it like a dart, landing it in an open trash can from up to 30ft.

    This only works with those cheap bags that businesses use and this was honed over years of changing trash at various businesses. Not useful, very majestic though.

  • Hey gang, I'm trying to find a mod or resource pack that well make the overworld and nether generate the same islands in the void that the end does.

    I've seen sky-lands but I can't get it to work, it says it's too old for 1.21 and too new for 1.20.6. Does anyone have suggestions on how I can do this?

    So we have a few of these things and I honestly fell like they're critically under utilized for what they are. You can see the mini figure display space, the stand and folding wings come out leaving a sizable storage area, and the lid also opens to enough storage for all the parts in each set. The top of the lid is an ordinary 8x8 flat round corner.

    Obviously, these would be great travel cases for Lego D&D Minifigs, with your fig, main equipment, and what not with the back space used for other equipment or cosmetics. That said, I really want to find a game that uses the building aspect of Lego and can be stored in these containers.

    The best I've come up with would be some variation of Goh that uses smooth tiles? Maybe some sort of chess game? Any ideas would be appreciated, I've been wracking my brain on this for weeks

    So our neighbors have been a growing problem for a few months now. They seem to be a flop house for six or seven people, most of them look high all day. They go out and Rev a Harley at 3am, they burn plastic been our houses in a fire pit, they have a new dog every two weeks because they keep getting out and getting hit by traffic in the busy street we live on, the current two have bit people. I'm not one to care how someone lives, but these folks make the rest of our slum neighborhood look downright utopian.

    I've tried taking to them, they're stupidly hostile. I've put in complaints with the city, noise complaints with the police, they don't do anything about it. Does anyone have advice on dealing with this? I'm tired, at my wits end, and my small town tactics aren't as easy to pull off in a proper city.
