Its very hard to find anything in the lower 48 and Canada (Your right, Mexico has a lot more preserved sites) that are older that 400 years old. I was recently out in southern Utah and there are petroglyphs around Moab, some depicting horses which dates them to no earlier than the mid-1600s. Others are believed to be significantly older.

Meaning Ive seen something in the US that is older than your mum. /s

Exactly, I told my sibilings that when they went off to college.

You can always call me, I will drive to the ends of the earth to pick you up, I wont tell the folks if you dont want me to. You do, however, have to be able to tell the person scraping your sorry ass off the pavement exactly what you broke. (And dont do anything where you wouldent be able to tell them either)

Dont break the weekend rules

  • Do NOT add to the population
  • Do NOT subtract from the population
  • Do not ever do anything that will have you end up in the newspaper, hospital or jail.
    • If you do end up in jail, establish dominance quickly.

Also dont do anything you would be afraid to explain to the paramedics.

If the camera is that important, then look for a phone where the camera is the primary feature. Samsung has some nice ones these days, Fairphones offerings are generally average across the industry, many claim they are over priced, but that is due to their picky component/vendor selection (See their attempts at ethicaly sourced parts).

I ordered a Fairphone 4 and had it shipped over to the US before they officially supported US carriers and got their reseller state side to fix some minor issues.

And its also cute I get to play the "Organic" card for a piece a tech. The device itself is good enough and with the repairability focus I can take my battery out as a party trick. (I have seriously done this, it works best for Iphone people)

I would love that, I dont think the movie is terrible, its just that everything after Ford and Arthur get thrown out the airlock isnt as funny or absurd as the books. The main issue is the first 2ish books are unadaptable because there is no central conflict (or arleast the main cast dosent care or know there was supposed to be one).

Zaphod is the only person with motivation to do anything other than to continue existing, and he is unaware (or dosen't care) he is being hunted until they meet those suprisingly progessive law enforcment officers on Magrathea and when he visits the guides publishing offices.

I play EvE online and have done the whole player/corp/guild managment thing and we had a phrase.

"The game has 4 currencies Time, Money, Content and Trust. You can buy 3 of them"

In your context, times currency is a represention of existing. If you choose to spend it wisely is up to you. And we're out here shooting the shit on Lemmy... so... Yah...
