Adding about 650sq feet to my deck along with an extended cover, wish me luck. Squared all the footer markings today and once this coming rainstorm is over next week i'll rent an auger and dig the footer holes. Thanks god I live in an area with zero frost.

had potential but ya, we dipped after two episodes cause it was just stupid Really enjoyed them trying to throw in some edgy comedy in an attempt to channel 'Silicon Valley' vibes but whiffed on all of them in the cringiest of ways.

At this point, I'm pretty much on board with the great pyramid being a pre dryas event power plant, explained pretty well in this video.

you know what's fucked my wife and I realized recently, although is not really a surprise. Exact products that go into cosco or sams are different from their counterpart in the regular supermarket. We get those reds bfast burritos and the ones from cosco suck ass compared to the store bought...

this episode, masterclass of bad acting

huh? I'M making stuff up? Wow I really want you to join my post apocalypse group but didn't realize you couldn't hold a job at the dollar store. Couldn't keep up with the grandma's? btw we're all just joking here, all in good fun as you say

Walking 60 mile with a zombie apocalypse going on is a mindless activity? weird. Didn't you get fired from some random menial retail job for falling asleep or something? Like, just standing there? But ya can't wait till you get to my farmer/hunter group and start dictating terms.

What do you mean? My larp was very kind to you My real larp is you magically make it to your friends and relatives, consume their resources for a few weeks and contribute nothing but annoyance as they realize they're in a precarious life threatening situation that you're making worse, and...

For the sake of the larp i'll continue by playing the roll of the farmer. I'd really love to have you roll in as we're trying to get organized and figure out how to survive. Just what my group needs! A know it all who can't shut up and is to weak to really do anything. I'd love our first...

I'm completely retarded on the subject, but I was wondering if the makers of chatgpt had to have access (pay the fees) to all the journals, news paywalls and god knows what other paywalled info to get it's set. Assumed yes. From your article: Doesn't this make it dog shit from the start?

For most the game's life it didn't have an afk timer and you could stay logged in for days. I don't think you can anymore but not sure. I feel like i've been logged in afk many hours. Actually with steam even if it logged you out to log in it's still clocked time. That number is horse shit...

people will likely get a taste of this in our lifetimes when some bad actor decides to take down the powergrid

Hydro turbine lubricant is specially formulated and expires in two years your also not going to be drilling and then refining oil, especially in bumfuck colorado you beclown yourself with this nonsense

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.
