If you’ve never tried, def give grape jelly+chili sauce a shot! There are a bajillion recipes floating around if you google (recipes, like ratios of grape to chili sauce), but I’ve made that for myself and the grape somehow makes it pop. It’s just good lol

I bought a 3 pack of Corsair LL120 RGB case fans directly from Amazon-dot-com (as the seller) before and got a 3 pack of someone’s old case fans instead (the old swapperoo). So Amazon told me to just keep them after I sent them many photos of the box and the LPN sticker on it, and they sent me another. Take a guess what was in that box? Yup, more swapperoos. But this was back in 2016-2017 so they may have changed up how they handle returns since then, or how they isolate their own products from 3rd party ‘FBA’ sellers

My family (kinda not-quite-northern MN) uses key lime, mini marshmallows, wanna say cool whip, and usually mandarin oranges, but that’s a hit. And someone always brings a whole slow cooker full of meatballs that have been marinaded in there with grape jelly and possibly chili sauce (just the sauce). Those 2 things are so awesome and the meatballs are easy to cook

In my family it’s more like key lime jello mixed with cool whip and mandarin oranges or some shit. And it always slaps

I actually had to see for myself if this was for real, and apparently he drove his car through his neighbor’s fence in order to access (and subsequently destroy) the back door. I’m not sure how I’d feel about that on a random Tuesday lol.

But he was also charged with burglary on top of other things and I kinda feel that it’d be impossible to show he had any criminal intent, given that he was tripping balls to the point of hallucinating a fire

The valuation of these companies are based on absurd compounding growth but growth goes from darling to pariah the moment cash dries up, every time. Taper tantrums and Brexit era, it’s sometimes the knee-jerk reaction, even. 2021, people were trading based on yields and unemployment data and bad numbers were making tech stocks rise in hopes of rate cuts. Securities is an entirely different beast than bitcoin because stocks have intrinsic value (and if you have faith in the forward earnings of a company that’s intrinsic enough)

This is all propped up by growth though. The moment Microsoft mentions skipping a product cycle is when investors panic and rotate into staples or whatever, Nvidia cuts production targets, Micron suddenly has ICs for other things

Eventually the precedent would just become ‘poor people’ fucking over everyone, including other ‘poor people’ just trying to start their own business. I get what you’re saying but allowing squatters to create entire catalogues of domains for the sake of sticking it to corporations is probably a shitty answer

I don’t think they’re modern in the sense that they were recently invented/introduced, but modern in the sense that they’re now becoming a lot more popular in places that have municipal/city sewer hookups.

Anecdore time: my grandparents built a little cabin on an island when they retired (more Puget Sound than tropical, they weren’t bajillionaires lol), but they had one 30 years ago, alongside an outhouse, simply because draining a septic tank on an island cost a fortune. Septic service company basically uses a pontoon retrofitted with a tank and built up to float with that much weight, and they’d have to transfer that to a septic truck in order to haul it away on the mainland.

They’ve been around for quite some time, but 20+ years ago you’d probably only encounter them being used in niche places like that, or in a recreational vehicle, or in other parts of the world where the cost of municipal water is a consideration
