I’ve found that playing porn very loudly when marketers call is a good way to get added to the Do Not Call list very quickly.

that was never my favorite way to do it. instead, when we were talking to somebody we didn’t like, we would just rattle it in the cradle for a good five to ten seconds before hanging up.

trump can’t do shit as long as people keep fighting him. doesn’t matter how many people he throws in prison or lines up against the wall, we beat fascism to a bloody pulp once before and we’ll do it again. I’m sorry if you’re so depressed about what’s happening that you’ve lost your will to fight, but take a breather if you need to because the rest of us have your back and will take over while you get better.

wikipedia is gonna live a lot longer than trump will, and there will come a day very soon when we’re dancing in the streets while he’s being laid to rest in the cold, hard ground. and no amount of MAGA bullshit or pessimism from people who have given up is gonna change that future.

That’s uncompressed, the compressed archive is just over 102GB. And yes, you can download the entirety of Wikipedia as a single archive, and they tell you how on Wikipedia itself. The easiest way is probably Kiwix.

And not just the whole thing, either, you can download specific topics, or the top 100 articles, or the whole thing in simple English without pictures, etc.

chill the fuck out, doomer. Wikipedia has enough cash on hand to survive for the next several decades, even if Trump takes away their non-profit status. he can throw a fit about them all he wants, the absolute worst case scenario here is they just move offices to somewhere in Europe.

Yeah, they could have been built by aliens who just wanted to share their urine salt treatment for cancer with us.

First of all, they aren’t going to kill Wikipedia.

Second, Wikipedia isn’t even close to being the only place to get your history. There’s this neat little place called a fucking library. You can go there for free.

IDK, but you probably made the right choice by taking it home and bringing it inside your house. No chance it could be anything dangerous or toxic.

First of all, Marxist is only an insult if you’re MAGA or right-wing, so way to tell on yourself. Second, I’m an anarchist, notice the instance. Third, democrats are a right-of-center party, you share at best maybe a third of my ideals. And forth, I don’t vote for people who sit at the table with literal nazis. That’s what your party is doing right now. So save the self-righteousness for when you lot aren’t actively working with fascists to end democracy.

Ah, yet another long post by a white democrat who thinks they’re a leftist and shouldn’t be questioned.

Nah, it’s not an ad. It’s just shit.

That’s a German brand of faucet.

I mean, they’re still killing machines. Cats can absolutely decimate a local ecosystem if they are allowed to breed out of control. Which is why it’s so important to spay or neuter your pets, as well as any strays that can be caught.

Well, if you turn it all the way on, it should have the same temp as if you did it the way you described, so yeah, the regulator might be broken. A valve should last you several years before it starts leaking or breaks, so if you’ve had yours that long, it might be time for a new one.

The good news is that replacements are pretty cheap, and for this style of faucet they’re pretty easy to install, usually requiring only a screw driver and probably a pipe wrench to loosen the retaining ring. And if you have a name brand like Delta or Moen, it’s covered under a lifetime warranty as well.

This. So many comments in this thread make it pretty clear that most people don’t know there’s a regulator built into the faucet.

You don’t need to adjust your water heater or add a mixing valve. You just need to take off the handle and set the temperature regulator on the faucet itself.

Most of these types of faucets have a regulator in them as well in the US, you have to take off the handle to set it and most people never bother to do so.

IDK which way threads go on your country, but in the US at least you turn counterclockwise to loosen something.
