Israel threatens to 'take Lebanon back to the stone age'
  • Suprising how numb we all are to countries saying they will make an entire population suffer rather than talking about fighting the military. We are just one or two layers away from countries saying "we'll kill all the babies till they regret even thinking about looking at us sideways"

  • what invisible thing could set off my smoke detector?
  • I think you said elsewhere that they are new and that they are photoelectric rather than the radioactive ones.

    I'm purely taking a shot in the dark but I'm wondering if you should try sealing up the hole(s) in the wall that you made to run electric and to mount the detector

    My thinking is that dust might be getting caught up in a tiny draft through that hole and it's so close to the source that it sets it off. Cause like, if wind hits the side of the house, there can be some positive pressure in the crawlspace which often also means inside the walls.

    I guess maybe somehow there could be some stream or condensation as well. If it's right by the front door and the humidity is high, maybe the hot air from outside meets the AC air and causes a tiny amount of condensation. Or if you live in hellscape temperatures, maybe there could be some vapor generated because of the hot air.

    Elon Musk has another secret child with exec at his brain implant company
  • He's such an egomaniac that reproducing is a kink for him. Imagine being one of those kids and knowing your dad gets off at your very existence while him also caring so little about you other than your genes

  • Waste of gas
  • Ugly truth is that new people don't have the job security to just not come int the office despite being told to. I'm guilty of this.

    I've been at my job for over 4 years as a senior level engineer. They've tried to tell me to come into the office so many times but all of us collectively go "nah". I go in for about 4 hours a week even tho they expect me to be in like 2 or 3 days a week.

    It's kind of like drug tests. The company has policies cause they need to be compliant with federal laws but they know they'd lose people who can't be readily replaced if they ever actually did tests. They can't afford to shake that tree

  • Two new iconic LEGO sets announced, based on a pair of well-known European wonders
  • It's an interesting question. For me personally, there will always be some level of taint. But we all also have our own tolerances

    So something like net-value = value - (taintedness - tolerance) and the higher the net value, the more likely I'll buy

    Like, Sagrada Familia to me has an incredible value because of how crazy the architecture is and how crazy it would be as a lego build. Still has a decent amount of taintedness cause catholic and my tolerance for catholic stuff is low.

    But U.S. Air Force Academy Chapel in CO is a dope looking building so a high value. It does have catholic chapels but also has many different other chapels, which I think overall reduces the taintedness over a straight up catholic churches.

  • It’ll be interesting to see how it does. I personally have zero interest in spending a shit pile of money to have a massive Catholic Church in my place. I’d be willing to bet it will make more people who are interested in this sort of set decide to get something else than it will attract people who wouldn’t get this sort of set decide to get it
