A few people haven't been able to decipher my last (cryptic?) message, so to be clear: Luke Perry was buried in a biodegradable mushroom suit that reduces the carbon footprint left by burial or cremation.  The suit will help decompose his remains into nutrients that return to the soil. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-woman-who-made-luke-perrys-mushroom-burial-suit-is-shaking-up-the-death-care-market-2019-05-07 https://www.bbc.com/news/48140812 The BBC article included the accompanying photo.

@boyboyboyboy: what? that is insane. I really enjoyed seeing him growing up. RIP. Looking at this again, I now get that you were likely not saying: I really enjoyed seeing him growing up. … but rather ... I really enjoyed seeing him {implied:  while I was} growing up. Apologies on that and for Rocky, RIP.

RIP

RIP

@raphjd: This crap has been going on for at least 2 decades. There are even companies with no connection to the copyrighted item trying to profit by claiming.   About 10 years ago, the EU had several such companies doing this. Extortion is the best word for it.   They threaten to sue you for massive sums but say they will drop it if you pay several thousand. I know, it's such a fucking racket out there. Makes me want to be a pirate even more. If they have all this money to try and "break the war on piracy," to not gain any profits (because it's more likely the people they're suing has absolutely no money), then they're making too much money. Fuck them….. I don't feel guilty anymore. No one can afford these prices anymore, and they promote to the poorest communities too.

There's also the issue of using it to prevent the homeless from sleeping in them. They won't supply them with housing and won't let them sleep in other places.

Yes, I'm afraid my analogies got a bit off-center in the last post.  Your glory holes in England are indeed man-made, as was the one in my original post and video clip (although they are related to meteorological events, such as rain/flooding). I'll move on from my truly mediocre work determining the origin of the term "glory" for these overflow pipes.  Something tells me I've got house upkeep that is, well, slightly more pressing than this ephemera.  But I appreciate your coming along on this bumpy ride…    :blink:

This just won't happen. It's just unworkable. This policy will keep getting postponed in the hopes that everyone will forget it was ever mentioned to it can be dropped

I'm amazed people listen to these calls. If it's obviously a robot/spam call, I just hang up; I thought everyone did??

Outside of donating to and furthering leftist identity politics, which is extremely anti-white, what has Apple done in white countries? $1 million to the forest fire in their area, that's it.  There is nothing more.  Zip, ziltch, nada Let's not forget that Africa doesn't exactly like fags.

Just put the info out there with the possibility of people to change their set up. NO need for the disrespect.

Oh I thoroughly believe the government has been doing that since dial up began. I think what may have taken longer was their ability to parse the intell. You don't think the sudden advent of free cameras in virtually everything was just some freak accident do you. It's all good, I am sure they use their magic powers wisely.  Bottom line is don't get up to stupid things and there is really nothing to worry about. Eventually everything will be done by instant dna, although that will likely spurn a new level of criminal behavior. Bottom line is if someone really wants what you have they will find a way to get it. I am just waiting for the first cryptocurrency hack and run. It will eventually happen, for every brilliant mind creating a new way to use the internet, there are a thousand just as brilliant hackers waiting for the challenge. I am also waiting to see what happens when we make humans thoroughly obsolete.
