Ryan Hall is doing a Livestream on YouTube providing all day coverage of the hurricane. Several cameras up in areas that will receive the worst of it. Several meteorologists on staff, radar info and explanation, storm chasers on the ground. Pretty much all of the information you could need. Link

I'll reply: no one is offering a retort because your comment is weird, pointless, and not worth the time or effort to give a genuine response to. Your edit makes it even more obvious that you just wanted to stir shit and get in bad faith arguments over a silly picture

I was a roofer for a few years. In Florida, a state with some of (if not the) the most strict roof codes in the country. It's perfectly ok to layer shingles like that and was common practice for a good while. I've torn off houses with 4+ layers of shingles several times and had the decking be just fine underneath them. You have no idea what you're talking about

It isn't theft, it's copyright infringement. Otherwise known as a bullshit crime that corporations invented to force the state to protect their bottom line. An individual infringing on a corporations copyright is, at worst, neutral. The artists working on these movies, games, albums, etc are either salaried, contracted, or having the majority of their profits siphoned off from their publisher. If you really care about supporting artists, throw independent artists a few bucks where you can and "steal" to your hearts content from the companies that already exploit their creative workforce.

Honestly, I wish pirating measurably hurt corporations bottom lines. They need to go down and that would be the easiest way to do it. But decades of rampant piracy have shown that piracy actually helps these companies in most instances, as people who have pirated a product and like it are more likely to purchase the product in the future compared to someone who simply hasn't used the product in question.

Additionally, many smaller or independent creators either don't give a shit about piracy or actively encourage those without the means to pay to pirate it anyway. People who are doing it for the love of their craft aren't profit centered ghouls who only care about enriching themselves and create things to contribute to our shared culture and entertainment. Pull your head out of your ass

I respectfully disagree, with the caveat that alcohol prices are highly location dependent. $25-50 will get you a great bottle of bourbon, rye, rum, cognac, etc. You're right that aging drives up the price but you'll be in good company for the majority of aged spirits. Exceptions being scotch and Irish whiskey but just barely. And even then you can find really good bottles in that price range for both if you know what you're looking for. 100% agree that the fancy stuff is usually inflated due to marketing and other associated pap

Liquor in general. Don't buy the cheapest shit on the shelf, go for the 25-50 range and you'll be set. Unless it's something you're passionate about and enjoy exploring there's no need to spring for the expensive booze. Liqueres and assorted (non liquor) cocktail ingredients on the otherhand... go for the genuine article. 99% of the time you'll still be in that 25-50 range so I hardly see a point in being cheap with them

Is village idiot somewhere in there? Relating to characters helps my immersion

I would imagine any privacy measures cartels take are seen as overhead more than anything else

Do people with a Rolex pay subscriptions for their disgustingly expensive watches?

35 of the remaining 40.is fucking with those tiny ass antenna connectors and wishing you'd never even bothered with the damn thing

No that's a dead loch. A deadlock is the bond of matrimony between two individuals
