Elon’s not invincible, and now we have proof.

Sorry that it's a YT Short; this format seems to work well for Steve, so many of his uploads are Shorts.

Seriously, what happened to the idea of decades? We’re already halfway through the "20s," yet for the past twenty years, the cultural conversation has been dominated by "generations" instead. Here’s why that shift isn’t doing anyone any favors.

Adam Conover talks about time, culture, and linguistics. I'm not sure about the accuracy of some of the things he talks about, and he admits that he's largely speculating on some topics. I felt it was something interesting to think about.

Wasn't expecting to see Ozzy drop a music video in 2025, but here we are.

I just received my aluminum model Exo-M in the mail today, and I absolutely love this knife, but it's so damn loud! I feel the urge to fidget with it, but I worry that I'm annoying my neighbors. It's so loud and piercing, it sounds like a Garand ping every time I open a package.

Does anyone have advice for noise reduction on knives? I thought about maybe putting a thin layer of epoxy or silicone or something along the ends of the frame that make contact with the blade, but I feel like the tolerances are so tight that any amount of material being present could possibly interfere with opening/closing the knife, so I don't want to risk something like that just yet. I suspect that any kind of coating I could apply would also just peel off almost immediately, anyway.

Any ideas? Or should I just learn to live with it?

Just noticed that my comments and posts from the last 24 hours don't seem to be appearing on outside instances at all.

I've got a clogged sink, and have been reading the labels on a bunch of different products lately. I'd always assumed that they were a strong acid of sorts, which would dissolve whatever sort of material was built up in the pipes. But I've noticed that a lot of these products specify that they're non-corrosive, so I'm not sure what other sort of mechanism may be at play here.

there’s an office in a building
and a person in a chair
and you paid for em both
though you may be unaware

you paid for the paper
you paid for the phone
you paid for everything they need
to deny u wut yer owed

there aint no u in united health
there aint no me in the company
there aint no us in the private trust
there’s hardly humans in humanity

no the procedure that yer needing
aint the cost effective route
and only two percent of people
end up winnin a dispute

so if u get sick
pray to god for help
cause yer doctor’s gotta pray thru
united health

waay back in 70 and 7
mr richard t burke

the warren buffet of health
the jeff bezos of fear

and one jus went
the ingredients ya got

but if u get sick
cross yer fingers fer luck
cus ole richard t burke
aint givin a fuck

commoditized health
monopolized fraud
“here’s the doctors we own”
“here’s the research we bought”

they own the pharmacies
and alotta the meds
they should start buying graves
to sell us when we’re all dead

there aint no u in united health
there aint no me in the company
there aint no us in the private trust
there’s hardly humans in humanity
there’s hardly humans in humanity

I got tired of there not being a place to geek out over one of the best FPS games I've played in ages, so I decided to be the change I wish to yada yada, so I made one.

The Finals is a free, competitive FPS game made by Embark Studios - a dev team formed by a bunch of old developers from the Battlefield series. All classes, weapons, abilities, and game modes are completely free and can only be unlocked through game progression; the only things you can spend money on are cosmetics, though the game also gives you a ton of free cosmetic items through various events, account progression, and the free season pass tier. It's available on Steam, GeForce Now, Xbox S|X, PS5, and will be available on PS4 later this year.

It's a super fun, super flashy, and super addicting game. If you haven't already tried it: give it a shot, it's free! So it'll cost you nothing but your time. Heck, if you have a GFN account, you don't even have to download anything, you can literally be playing right now. And if you like it, come hang out and share some clips! I'll be trying to populate the community with content as I can. I'm not being paid to glaze the game like this, I just really enjoy it and want to share it with everyone.

I'm considering picking up a fixed blade, and usually don't wear a belt, so I'm looking for low-profile clips that would work along the waistband or pocket. From what I can see, UltiClip seems to be the highest-regarded in most areas, but I can't bring myself to wear Christian iconography, and the cross logo seems to be laser-cut out of the product so I don't think I could just Sharpie over it or something.

I usually don't like any visible logos on anything I wear, but I especially don't like religious ones. Maybe my reason for looking for an alternative is petty, but it's my reason. Was hoping to see what people's thoughts on other brands are!
