Like I said just not entirely correct.
You are right that they don’t want to seem like they’re advertising for a company, but I was building off the first comment stating it was companies they couldn’t extort money out of and I’m sure you know thats just not how product placement works.
Good news! You’re both wrong or at least not entirely right. That’s called greeking and is done on literally any brand, marketing or imagery of any kind unless specifically approved by that company, and or the artist that made the imagery regardless of whether that company has given them money or not. Its often done with a sticker and a graphic made of some made up brand or maybe just tape over it but this is my favorite type. This means the on set dresser took that from crafty because they weren’t expecting a fridge shot today and “greeked” out surge by using a sharpie to fill in the spaces. Just great work right there.
This is all out of fear that they might be sued. That’s all.
Don’t forget JAG, though that was truly just bad tv.
Hey! Me too. I thought I was the only one. Happens when I yawn sometimes too.
I see that now. My brain read your first USPS as ISP I guess. In which case… yes please do explain what infrastructure they have that could be used to deliver internet to the masses.
You used to be able to do some banking at your local post office. You still can at some offices but it has largely been done away with. I believe they were referring to this and not USPS as an ISP.
I agree In my house we don’t have so many drawers. Just 2 large ones and we’ve basically integrated the miscellaneous sections into the 2. Everything with a knowable home and commonly used in the up front dividers. All else in the rear dividers.

Its the fucking worst.
I had a passat for 3 days when the engine almost exploded going over a bridge from engine sludge. I loved my Ranger and hate to speak ill of it, but it was a ford. I kept a full wrench set and spare parts under the jump seats. Most parts I’ve ever changed on a car and some repeatedly. Ultimately gave in to its unfixable head warp.
You gotta be careful though. My best friend tried to take a girl out on a discgolf date once. She said "no thanks discgolf is a gateway drug to marijuana. " and she might be right.
I worked with a guy who banned together with a few of his college friends and made a sort of communal maker space. They rented a space, each had their own area and supplied the space with various tools that the others could use. They would occasionally rent out space for someone to come make something using their tools and sometimes experience. This would subsidize the rent for them to have space in which they could do as they please.
This is a relatively common practice within the art world (they were furniture makers/designers) but I don’t see why this wouldn’t be just as if not more productive with a bunch of engineers. I also have often seen companies grow out of such arrangements. You share a space, start working collaboratively, and before you know it you’ve got a shared product to sell.
The other added benefit is there’s always someone around to help you unload, setup and be excited about that CNC you found.
Watched old horror movies all the time with my grandfather growing up. None of that was scary. Watching Chuckey when I was probably 8 with my brother was terrifying. Didn’t help we had one of those big my buddy type dolls in the house. I think I was Chuckey for Halloween that year.
Would pay 20 bucks to see moonhooch for sure. Came upon too many zooz while they were still playing in the subways. I’d probably pay more than 20 bucks to see moon zooz
Always be prepared to be unprepared.

My guy, you don’t have to go so hard. All I was trying to say is if you listen to their music you’ll find that their whole shtick and major inspiration is kung fu movies. Many of the samples in their songs are from old kung fu movies.
If we wait til 2028 we’ve all failed. He has already stated he’s finding a way for a 3rd term and is currently shredding the constitution. If we do not oust the man and his entire heritage foundation crony cuck ball lickers there won’t be any voting for you to do in 2027. Their goal is to take complete control and remain in power forever. It’s clearly stated in project 2025.
