I remember like 20 years ago when the order your food in advance thing came out.. Where I could order a whole dinner in advanced from the supermarket. The first year it was AWESOME and then after that they started using cheep shit to try and turn a better proffit. I was not happy.
[00:55:14]

TheFatherMind: a lot of stuff has turned out that way sadly :(

last year my old job gave us all giant turkeys that they ordered from one of our distributors
[00:58:46]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
had to move one of the shelves up one notch and got it to fit, awkwardly LOL
[01:00:18]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
hmm i wonder if the president pardoned that one turkey this year
[01:00:35]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
that used to be a thing, where they had a live turkey and the president pardoned it (meaning it wouldnt get eaten) lol

"An October report by the Texas Public Policy Foundation found that, after accounting for all of the hidden costs involved in owning an EV, that price becomes much more significant than an internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle."
[01:50:34]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
"Adding in the costs of government subsidies, charging equipment and the added strain on the electric grid, the report says that the "true cost of fueling an EV would equate to an EV owner paying $17.33 per gallon of gasoline." "
[01:51:17]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
"When ICE owners pay for a gallon of gasoline, the report says, they are paying for the "entire infrastructure to refine, transport and market that gasoline." "
[01:51:39]
Compy/rizon
Yeah, the same reason I don't own an EV is the same reason I don't have solar panels on my house. It'd take me over 20 years to recoup that cost.
[01:52:32]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
Compy: because that quiet room of corporate elites want our money

i remember once, i'd been up for over 48 hours .. and i was outdoors in the middle of the night, walking home. i kept falling asleep, as i was walking (but somehow kept walking, i guess)
[02:05:04]

then woke up, was confused about where i was. then starting to fall asleep again confusing dream imagery with my surroundings. repeat

ski/rizon
imagines Ahsoka skillfully wrestling opponents to the ground
[02:10:08]
ski/rizon
one of the (adult) leaders on a summer camp i was on, as a teenager, had the habit to occasionally sneak up behind someone unsuspecting, and tickle-tackle them to the ground, with them laughing until they begged for mercy
[02:10:32]
foxy/rizon
i guess it depends on what you considered to be a woman
[02:10:41]
ski/rizon
she was also a singer in a well known pop band (not that i had heard of that then. i didn't listen to popular music, really)
[02:11:11]
ski/rizon
one time, she told us about a woman stalker she'd had, who'd broken into their house, tied them up, and threatened them with a knife
[02:11:15]
foxy/rizon
are you including people who identify as women?

Neo_Nemesis/rizon
hmmmm come spring time I think im gonna do some crystal hunting!
[02:23:05]
ski/rizon
we have a pegmatite quarry here
[02:23:49]
ski/rizon
yea, those little red ones, trying to recall what they're called in english
[02:25:05]
ski/rizon
they're embedded in micas
[02:25:33]
ski/rizon
apparently there's also some amount of uranium in the rocks there, iirc
[02:26:24]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
tho its not Uranium 238, thats the bomb stuff, and is extremely rare
[02:26:26]
ski/rizon
last i was there (a few years ago, i just had a whim to bike over there), they'd put up locked fences. but i found a way around
[02:27:20]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
we have some silver mines up in the mountains here, but the forest service buried the entrances to most of them
[02:27:37]
ski/rizon
there is a somewhat large open chamber/cavern, with a pillar holding up the corner
[02:27:52]
ski/rizon
like, you could perhaps fit a bus in there
[02:27:52]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
but the entire mountain range here was formed by volcanic flows, and there are tons of minerals
[02:28:16]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
i know of a spot where there is a huge slab of quartz with tiny little crystals covering the top of it, and if you dig down you'll find all sorts
[02:29:05]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
I've found quartz out the wazoo, flourite, topaz, lots of malachite, azurite, uuuhhh
[02:29:07]
*
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
thinks
[02:29:17]
ski/rizon
i think perhaps the quarry was only used by (i guess geology ? or maybe also physics ?) institution at the university
[02:29:30]
ski/rizon
or maybe there were some industrial mining at one point, i don't recall
[02:29:40]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
ski: possible, tho garnets and mica are usually a sign of aluminum
[02:30:04]
ski/rizon
hm, now that you mention it (again), "aluminum" may vaguely ring a bell
[02:30:14]
ski/rizon
i could perhaps ask my da, next i see him
[02:31:23]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
but in a silver deposit you find mica with quartz and I thing chalchantite? (sp?)
[02:32:05]
ski/rizon
on a vacation, we passed through where they'd been silver mines. some of us kids went off into the forest a bit, looked at sudden holes in the ground, and a few that were horizontal openings, venturing in a little bit. although, when we came back, apparently some guide was angry at us, for walking off, without a guide
[02:32:06]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
no no chalcathite (proper spelling) is actually a sign of copper
[02:33:11]
ski/rizon
on another vacation, we were visiting some castle ruins. but they'd closed when we got there. so us kids jumped the fence, and explored. after a while, the guard noticed us, and started chasing us. we ran in different directions, and hid from him. later, my older brother said that that was the most fun on that vacation
[02:33:16]
Ahsoka/rizon
I'm sick of the double standard with genders, when a girl does multiple men she's a slut, but when a guy does it, he's a gay
[02:33:34]
ski/rizon
much more fun, usually, to explore without a guide, yea
[02:33:53]
ski/rizon
Ahsoka : can't girls be gay, too ?
[02:34:01]
ski/rizon
especially around christmas
[02:34:21]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
well to an extent, there is a military installment out here
[02:34:32]
*
ski/rizon
whistles a christmas carol, mentioning "gay"
[02:34:32]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
if you go on there you get the black SUV and dudes with guns experience
[02:35:17]
ski/rizon
oh, now that i think about it, we jumped the wall beside the fence, not the fence itself
[02:36:03]
ski/rizon
perhaps you could import some
[02:36:09]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
but there are some cool ancient ruins and petroglyphs and stuff
[02:36:43]
ski/rizon
there's apparently a rude petroglyph, hm, was it in scotland, or in wales ?
[02:36:46]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
along with crystals ive also found pottery shards, arrow heads and other random stone tool/jewelry type stuff
[02:36:53]
ski/rizon
anyway, a large giant, with a large .. well, you know
[02:37:20]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
ive never seen anything like that, usually just depictions of people and animals and symbols
[02:38:41]
ski/rizon
ah, it wa actually in England
[02:39:55]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
it doesnt look obscenely big tho, looks proportionate to the body
[02:42:13]
ski/rizon
yea, that looks pretty cool
[02:42:19]
ski/rizon
hm, is that down under ?
[02:42:43]
ski/rizon
hm, or maybe .. yea, was about to say the states
[02:42:56]
ski/rizon
i think there's also something of the kind, out in the Saraha, in some places
[02:43:26]
ski/rizon
with pictures of gazelles and other animals, presumably from the time when the Saharas were a savannah, not a desert
[02:43:49]
ski/rizon
mm, i've seen this site before, on pic
[02:43:59]
ski/rizon
that's, i think, Pueblo indians, yes ?
[02:44:28]
ski/rizon
oh, the link name even said
[02:44:52]
ski/rizon
would be nice to visit something like that, some time
[02:44:57]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
theres more than just that, is down in a canyon and theres more, smaller buildings through out
[02:45:06]
ski/rizon
apparently, there's a monastery in Egypt, which looks kinda similar
[02:45:29]
ski/rizon
it also reminds me of the Gerudo Fortress, in Ocarina of Time
[02:46:10]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
most of the peublo indians were in cliff dwellings similar to that
[02:46:32]
ski/rizon
they weren't nomads, had maize/corn crops
[02:47:00]
ski/rizon
and bad teeth, due to using sandstone to crush the corn
[02:47:15]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
that one is called Montezuma Castle, it was built by Sinagua indians
[02:47:23]
ski/rizon
apparently also put funeral sites halfway up steep cliffs, iirc
[02:47:43]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
made it hard for grave robbers and invaders to get up there
[02:48:49]
ski/rizon
and good lookout posts, at times, i imagine
[02:49:52]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
yea, in some cases, in others they were deep in canyons, but they also had outposts up above on the canyon rims
[02:50:21]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
like the pueblo cliff palace, up above the cliff palace on top of the cliff there are more ruins up there
[02:51:27]
ski/rizon
there's a lot of tunnels, chambers, rooms, underground in kappadocia, Turkey
[02:52:12]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
thats cool, there's some caves and tunnels around here but no signs of human activity
[02:52:12]
ski/rizon
i know they've been used by some christian groups, historically. but i was told recently that they're much older than that, apparently
[02:52:56]
ski/rizon
also, i was told by an israeli palestinian, that the tunnels under Gaza also are very old. some apparently go a long way underground out in the direction of the Sinai peninsular
[02:53:52]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
there's also a lot of ancient mines that date back a looong way
[02:55:00]
ski/rizon
supposedly made by megasloths
[02:55:25]
ski/rizon
hm, were mayans that far north ?
[02:55:42]
ski/rizon
i know the aztecs came from north, down south, and settled at tenochtitlan
[02:56:46]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
they were prehistoric indians, before the apache, navajo and pueblo
[02:57:02]
ski/rizon
there's megaliths at teotihuacan
[02:57:20]
ski/rizon
iirc, actecs and others said they were there already when they arrived
[02:57:50]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
ive also heard that the mogollons were associated in trade with the aztec and maya
[02:58:16]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
but im not so sure as the mogollons technically date back before them

[02:59:41]
ski/rizon

[03:00:03]
ski/rizon
yea, but the name of the site
[03:01:09]
ski/rizon
ah, ok, that was that one, then
[03:01:45]

i think it was actual sacsayhuaman which had the megalithic stones, then ?
[03:01:49]
ski/rizon

There's so much that I don't know about ancient south american culture o:
[03:02:22]
ski/rizon
we knew an older lady. when she was over 80, she travelled to Machu Pichu
[03:02:42]
ski/rizon
her granddaughter was getting married. and she visited Macchu Pichu, when she was there anyway
[03:03:12]
ski/rizon
i think there was maybe some more in central, as well .. not sure
[03:03:55]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
yea in central america there are all sorts of monuments and ancient builds all over the place
[03:04:25]
ski/rizon
well, there's those famous step pyramids at Chichen Itza
[03:05:25]
ski/rizon
i don't recall if Palanque's tomb was also at Chichen Itza, or another site
[03:05:48]
ski/rizon
where the water went underground, due to being high in calcium
[03:07:00]
ski/rizon
they have those more or less circular, very deep holes, with water at the bottom
[03:07:05]
ski/rizon
where they'd sometimes sacrifice
[03:07:19]
*
ski/rizon
forgot the name
[03:07:24]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
back to crystals, the largest crystal cave ever found is in central america
[03:07:44]
Neo_Nemesis/rizon
I think those big round holes with water are also central america
[03:07:46]
ski/rizon
is it that one with giant crystals ?
[03:07:57]
ski/rizon
and very humid and quite hot, so that people can't stay in there for long ?
[03:08:14]
ski/rizon
and it had until recently been filled with liquid, so that the crystals were growing
