None of this matters, all your lubricants have gone bad and no longer work, even if the dam had one gajillion gallons in storage, it's all bad. No, you can't "skim" the good stuff off the top, that shit has a half life, it won't work and when you try to use it your turbines will seize and your...

what a post

lol

my rendered elk fat theory is probably a more viable option

no lube in storage will literally go bad, just like gas, just like pretty much any unstable industrial material

i'm just riffing with you homey did you not just say the will to survive is a powerful thing?

imagine what you could do if you stopped cashing your government checks

But you just got done saying you were joking about it, pointing out that you had been trying to tell everyone that this was a TV show, but when I say "well you admit you can't do it" then all of a sudden it wasn't a joke and this has nothing to do with a tv show? So we're back to you actually...

lol I thought you were joking? So, you were serious?

so you admit that there's no way in hell you could keep a hydroelectric dam running, we're in agreement

lol

says the guy who can't stop saying "guys I could totally figure this out in real life"

you should complete a personal growth exercise - don't respond to this post at all, and consider yourself a better person then you were 5 minutes ago

let's settle this in a way that's at least circular. irl there's no way any of this would work and they'd be using lamps that worked off rendered animal fat in the show, they render animal fat and process it into lube and have a preeminent power specialist, skilled lineman and large turbine...

You can't even function irl because of narcolepsy but you're going to get the fucker working after 20 years? I guess we're assuming you're a peak physical fitness show character with godlike macgyver skills, so full circle back to fantasy land I guess

lol this post after crying about how it's a tv show

I mean you were the one arguing they would work. I conceded they were using elk fat but you kept on going saying that would work in the real world.

Good post except for this, the recent theories are that Neanderthals were stronger AND smarter than homo sapiens, but because of the increased brain and muscle mass there caloric requirements were much higher, making it so they couldn't survive tough times. Sapiens are the coyotes of the human...

magic

lol ya it's all fucked after 20 years of nothing

no, like brutul said, if it runs while not lubed, it seizes. Breaks. It's done. And even if that didn't happen, or you shut it down before seizer, you can't re-lube because your lube is expired and all fucked up.

does it really matter? my google fu tells me that it's still going to need oil lubricant, and when I look up some different brands of industrial oil lube the largest shelf live I see is 24 months, so even if the oil drain interval is 5 years or more (just quick google i'm seeing three years for...

just looking up some common industrial hydro turbine oils, the shelf life is 24 months. Even if you 5x that they still are out of lube for the last decade must be using elk fat - i'm sure that could sustain at temp

they require lubrication, often, and it's pretty specialized oil that would go bad so, WRONG

Probably holds together up to a higher number in a strictly hunter gatherer society since participants know that it's starvation or work. They still gonna be killing the lazy vs giving them welfare though, but lazy is almost always a choice.

Calm down Tex, it was just an interesting comparison of a studied concept, oops sorry "magic number", and what the show was saying. I'm going to continue to enjoy the show AND come here and talk all sorts of shit about it. Hope you can not wet your panties at my shameful audacity.

Ya that's it, so I was low, 150. But I gotta imagine once you start getting into triple digits you've gotta really start punishing unproductive people and trouble makers (who are of healthy working age) which you're gonna have a non-trivial number of pretty quickly.

Lithose would have probably written 100 pages with sources, but communism wouldn't work in a group of 500 people. They'd quickly fall apart. I can't fully remember but a few diff times lithose sourced like 10-20 person tribes was best and there was some max number before it falls apart, like...

this exists in reverse via redeye gravy

not quite yakitori but we do this fairly often in the spring and fall, this is from tonight, pork steak for me and center cut for the old lady: got it for camping but use it at our place more often, in spots I don't wanna put in a perma fire pit https://firesideoutdoor.com/

Ya I gotta agree with you, the ending was almost built to show that after all the shit there was pretty much no growth for most the main characters - both marriages were still trash, dad was still a sex addict, son was still a soyboy, even the blond assistant chick will continue to ho hum...

80% of your army is assfucked by

+ assuming hunter is good shot and has unlimited ammo - in this situation i'm most afraid of the hawks

I was gonna say she was good in fargo season 1 but I looked and I guess that's a different chick

I'd just get on facebook craigslist ect and find locals selling pullets - most local chicken raisers will be producing stock that's best for your area Once you have a little flock, and if you're ok with being slightly heartless, just throw a rooster in for a few months every year, let nature...

even if you get the roku isn't your tv still listening, what difference does that make?

Maybe i'm just simpleton kiroy cause I just use the LG os on my 5 year old smarttv and it's fine. I get to all my shit lickety split. The thought of putting another layer on that just makes me clint eastwood cringe

Ya sure that's great, I had one, but now, like was said, that's all just built into tv's. Just grab the apps your subscribed too, throw on amazon to buy what you need, and done - works the same? Maybe i'm missing something but all my shit is easy peasy and our tv entertainment needs are want...

I honestly have no clue why roku exists anymore, probably just my media experience bubble talking though

I know the answer from my colon with the ones on the left. Looking at the ones on the right?
