@AirlineReporter@avgeek.social Ahhh. Definitely NOT the typical cannonballs that you see displayed at forts. And they did not contain powder. ** but they were stolen from a Fort... which did not pursue charges against the passengers. 🤔

@AirlineReporter@avgeek.social That passenger must be "ripped" - to be able to carry those things around. Guessing they were more than just steel or lead balls... and possibly had powder inside. 😱

@anon_opin@mastodon.social Bottle returns in Michigan are hampered by the price that is stuck in 1970's... 10 cents... Additionally, "this deposit" is only for pop cans. Missing so much "litter"... --- All containers - aluminum, glass, paper, plastic, paper/plastic bags -- should have a "deposit" required of $1.00 This would lessen all containers on the side of the road. AND it would significantly help the few people who pick up these 'tossed items' (aka litter) -- usually very poor or homeless.

I see a post describing yet another method to remember the days in each month...

--
You don't have to memorize them, because:

-- plenty of access to information sources containing that data: phone, watch (if you use one), computer, calendar (various locations), etc.

-- If you must memorize them... cut the total down - by just memorizing the "short months" (or the long ones)... If you do that, then any other month is either short or long.

Short is only 5
Long is 7

Memorizing - too much work.

This past weekend at a gathering, I ran into (unplanned) several people that I haven't seen in probably 10 years and haven't talked to since I dropped the other two social systems.

They are still part of the cult - and show no signs of recognizing that they are.

May it be at least another 10 years - or never.

Another example of "proving you are innocent".

Sheriff's office unwilling to perform any detective work.

Thankfully - his supporters were able to get the D.A. to change the direction.

Two weeks of his life will always be about the false charges, loneliness of sitting in a jail cell, having a mug shot associated to a crime he did not commit.

@rahmstorf The tough part will be the calculation of the % where the collapse occurs. Up to what percentage will it support itself, and at what % does the surrounding waters overrun the AMOC... I would not expect it to survive all the way down to 0%... and even 10, 20, 30% is unlikely. So all those folks thinking - oh... we have time. That's 3, 4, 5 generations from now - it doesn't affect me --- are all fools. Given all the residual affects that will occur in global weather as it weakens.

@BryanGreyson I think due to fan requests... so Firefly, Caprica, Terminator (Sara Connor version) - got DVD releases with effectively 1ish seasons. If the one you are looking for only had a few episodes (8 to 13 is common season now on streamers) - 1 season is going to need fan outcry for someone to spend time to collect, organize, clean up, get licensing, publish - due to cost... Older shows that ran 24 episodes/season and many seasons - more likely for payback. 🤔
