That’s because turkeys take out the car with them. Whole shebang goes to the morgue.

Ok maybe not the morgue, but they do tend to get nicely lodged in whatever part of the car they get struck by. This is generally the front grill, as they are about 5-year-old size and tend to travel on foot, but they are flying bowling balls and can lodge into windshields pretty well too.

I’ve heard of a number of people hitting them (rural area) and the turkey soup always goes with the car.

My drunk self is a pretty good speller. Incoherent ramblings, but all properly spelled and punctuated (best I can tell).

Got anything stronger?

A lot of people would play this as a game.

Just introduce internet controlled cart devices, gamify it, and you could make your workforce essentially free end enjoyable to participate in.

I’d answer the phone if I knew it was a cute bat. You can sell me a warranty with your adorable little bat voice, that’s cool. I won’t buy it but you can sell it lil dude!

The ghostery addon does that whole decline process automatically, and also randomizes data that is mandatory to use the site, to help hide who you actually are. I never see these popups anymore, and I have cookies set to clear on browser close, which I do at least once a day to clean up whatever’s left over.

Ok, but siphonic systems still flush just fine if you pour water into them..? I’ve been doing it my whole life. Like even if you just pour water from a pitcher at a normal rate it’ll eventually hit a pressure point and flush itself (assuming there’s no clog). If you do it from more than a foot above the bowl it flushes basically instantly.

I’m so curious as to why you think us/canadian toilets don’t flush if you pour water into the bowl..

That one’s super risky tho. I have about 50/50 on stomach acid intrusion.

Have you ever sneezed away your nausea? That’s a good one. Bewildering, but I’m not arguing.

With maggots.

Whole mess.

Whoa, man!

Weaponized masturbator?

Sorry couldn’t help myself :D

Well that’s not where I was going with that, but you aren’t wrong..

My partner streams my Plex to their whole house by way of some sort of coax input device. I’m not really sure how it works but it uses the house’s cable lines to stream whatever from an hdmi device (in this case an rpi) to a unique channel.

Works great everywhere and for every device plugged into it, except a 9-ish year old Samsung tv. On that, the audio cuts out for a half second every 30 seconds or so. Without fail. No change to the picture, and an older Samsung tv handles it fine. We’ve tried everything we could find - including heavily tweaking Plex, and rebuilding the rpi entirely - short of replacing the tv, no dice.

Interestingly, no other stuff through that rpi on that same configuration has problems on that tv, so like we can load the retropi and play games and the sound works fine. It’s really just that one app, through that one method, on that one tv. So weirdly specific.
