Yeah, good point. I can't think of anything I had as a kid that would be drastically improved with modern batteries, but for sure cordless power tools are a big change. I have a cordless electric chainsaw - that wouldn't have been feasible in the 70s.

Are batteries that much different? I was born in the early 60s, and the batteries my toys used seemed like the same AAA, AA, C, and D batteries we use mostly today. I think the key difference is that a lot of things take a lot less energy than they used to.

I feel like this just be a visual illustration of a pun out some song lyrics, but I'm not getting them.

I remember Randy Rainbow doing it in 2016 (when do many thought Trump didn't have a chance).

Oh, okay, silly me. Don't believe I've seen it.

Eh, I don't fault institutional kitchens for the rectangles. When you have to feed a ton of people, maximizing oven space is important.

He gets shit for drone strikes (which he increased but didn't start) that had civilian casualties, but no mentions that everyone prior just used larger dumb bombs that had a lot more civilian casualties. Everyone just says "Look at how many drone strikes under Obama!" Here's the estimated number of middle eastern civilian deaths since 2001:

That looks like the pizza my HS cafeteria would serve, except it doesn't appear quite as greasy.

That was wholesome and enjoyable to read.

What was the fallout afterwards? Did they just say "you need to stay hydrated," or what?

Yeah, if you read the article linked above, it was originally marketed to steel workers as a replacement for beer when on the job. Originally Iron Brew. But the ingredients are a closely guarded trade secret. I'll have to see if I can find some to taste.

I would love to try their sarsaparilla! I haven't seen it at the regular grocery store, but there's a world market close by that might have it. I'm going to look.

Looks like there's a version of it that is a caffeine drink. But yeah, I'm pretty curious about what it tastes like. Unsweetened and originally a replacement for beer, so I'm going to guess it's nothing like a conventional soda.

Thomas and Alito start with the ruling they want, then backfill some justification for it.

USA/California chiming in. Read it many times to my youngest.

I'm in the US (California) and can often get Bundaberg in the grocery store here. I do like their ginger beer. Their root beer is good, but a little too heavy on the licorice for me.

I just spent 20 minutes watching commercials. Thanks!

I looked at their location finder to see how close one is to me. The closest one is a combined LJS and KFC, so yes, in the same category.

No clue. Not making any claims other than that there's no known expiration for water that's not subject to excess heat.
