Small town boy by Paradise Lost. https://open.spotify.com/track/0jfNgP8sP2tnOloYDw0HoM?context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A1lvVqodR4aT3R8WemeIgDN

The original is iconic, and there are almost too many covers of it to take it in. But Paradise Lost takes it in a different direction.

Same as Wicked Game by HIM. https://open.spotify.com/track/5XenUjG7cRnTkUe8AVuuMX

According to Wikipedia it’s an English and Norwegian name

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbonegro

https://no.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turboneger

I’m sure you can call them whichever you want

I think they anglified it to Turbonegro. It can be the official name nowv and for a while… My bad inn that case 😄

Hmmmm Not exactly what you are asking about, but i love the energy of “Kickstart my heart” by Motley Crue and “Get it on” by Turboneger.

Both starts hard sang continues in the same fashion. I want more og that energy and rhythm.

“Stand up and shout” by Dio is close, but it feels tiny bit harder/faster.

Anybody got other songs in the same vibe/ energy. Not a slow build up. Just 1-2-3-4 rock!

I used to “love” running in to McD when I was in a hurry and ask “what burgers do you have that are ready?” and just take whatever was available. More often than not, it was a cheese/double cheese.

Now I have to wait 5-10 minutes before its ready, and its more expensive.

The trade off of cheap and fast vs quality have disappeared.

Reading this thread is like a waterfall of ignorance and shitshow.

I’m no expert on animal husbandry, and in particular elephant sanctuaries, but I have recently been to one.

That being said, I’m sure there are elephant sanctuaries that treat their elephants bad, just as there are good ones. I can’t say which percentage of the sanctuaries are good/bad and I doubt any of the posters here can enlighten us on that.

What I can say is that these are NOT wild elephants. I was told there are roughly 12k wild elephants in Thailand.

These elephants are bought from farmers that are unable to sustain/feed the elephant from the work they are being used. Apparently it’s not uncommon to earn 500 Baht (ca 15 USD) a day as a farmer, and that is not enough to buy the 10% of body weight in food for the elephant. Elephants are often inhereted as they cost around 1 mill Baht (2,5 for baby).

So… Domesticated elephants can’t survive alone in the wild as they have been bred out some of the skills to manage on their own. So a mismanaged elephant is better off being sold off to a sanctuary that can care for it until it dies. Which is the purpose of sanctuaries - put an elephant out to pasture.

The sanctuary I visited only had female elephants and was but interested in breeding elephants - because they are not in it to add more domesticated elephants, but rescue elephants that need help. I’m sure other sanctuaries manage male elephants, I can’t say how they deal with mating and pregnancies in regards to rescue other elephants in need Vs “free elephant” for tourist trap.

TL;DR Post in this thread acts like domesticated elephants are a wild animal like a boar. It’s more like a cow that weighs 4-6 tonnes. Death by cow occurs every year, you don’t go screaming about that when it happens between your bites of hamburger. It’s of course horrible for the family of the poor girl being killed. Hopefully humans and elephants will get the treatment they need and deserve.

That would be glorious! But I’m seriously scared for Ukraine and Europe while Amexit happens…!

The beatings will continue until moral improves.

Someone should mention jan 6 to him…

I think everybody in most jobs/positions should have the opportunity to learn and grow. This is “just” a moderator and some leeway should be given, IMHO.

If it happens again by the mod, and if it becomes a “regular” thing by several mods, then the guillotine should be used frequently and without trials.

Fuck right off

The point here is that you need his base to start acting crazy.

Because they fucking are.

A second more horrible jan 6 would destroy that faction.

Left like it is now it can grow, but if it could boil over now it has a good chance to fizzle out.

The best outcome now is for the fuckers to mobilize and start killing ppl. Perform some actual Geneva convention war crimes and just really go to town. Proper attack.

Because right now is a very small but vocal group. And I’m sure Don Snorleone would marvel and rave about a new group of people marching forcefully in his name. Right up until they starts to execute democrats and people disagreeing with them on a whim.

Then you could respond in force, killing and jailing them and no one would disagree. It would be a wake-up call. It could purge parts of the GOP.

Now you have secession talks within the party that will just be whispers until this thing grows out of control. Then you get “Ciwil war” or god damn praise be “Handmaidens tale”…

Rise up and get fucked!

This is probably not in the same categories as other experiences, buuuut the Guinness museum in Dublin the evening before st Patrick’s day was quite fun!

There’s a large bar at the top/end of the museum and a band was playing and 100 or so people ended up in a conga line.

I think I had 4 tasty Guinness during the museum tour sand countless at the museum bar😅

Well… It used to be called “going postal” because of the frequent mass shootings in postal offices by postal workers…

Why that changed I can’t tell you.

On a slightly funny(?) note, postal the game was created where you are in fact going postal. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postal_(video_game)

Apparently there is a plot line that is not about shooting postal workers, so who knows.

I’m sure the artist intended to be smart and use metric time as something silly.

The problem is he used regular time.

60 * 60 * 24=86400=>86.4 kseconds where k stands for 1000. Like kilo for 1000 grams. Kilometer for 1000 meters etc.

The comic doesn’t make sense…

Early termination fees are not that horrible. They can give you a monthly cost where some of the costs for installing it might be distributed over they contact period. Fine and ok

But i should still be able to cancel my contract without jumping through 11 loops and queues.

If you sign up for a given contract, that’s what you have agreed upon. It sucks if you only have one option and they can set a ridiculous price. So if you want to regulate pricing, that’s a different matter. Cancelling is something else altogether.

I hope it was a genious piece of code that was miles ahead of what it replaced.

And still it got rejected 😄

Most likely its a payment plan for purchases. Klarna is a company where you can delay payment and such. They are a third party connection, so I believe a webshop will not know that is input on Klarnas end. But who knows how Midtgård does in their checkout process…

Its always more costly and less efficient to produce new things in smaller quantity than large numbers. So electric car manufacturers at this point in time costs more to produce from an environment perspective. As the number of electric cars go up, my understanding is that this will compare to fossil fuel car production.

Imo you cannot compare these two as its impossible to be as efficient as a large scale manufacturer until you become one yourself.
