He’s resting like he’s paid rent.

No one is even accidentally downvoting this while scrolling. Hell yeah.

What happens when they get waterlogged from rain, mouldy and warped?

Much of the timber is transported and sat in water to begin with. The weathering could cause warping and mold, etc, but a great deal of the timber industry at this time in this area was harvesting and processing old growth trees that were so compact that warping was minimal and any mold could just be wiped off. These planks were also not sitting in these stacks for long.

Did they ever have issues with termites?

Yes and no. Termites were there but not a consistent issue for making and shipping planks. Their habitats are destroyed in the sawmill process and these stacks were moving out and shipped out rapidly for termites to meaningfully colonize. It was easier to ignore and discard termite damaged wood as it was processed than anything.

What is the black abyss below him, is he on a stack of wood that is casting a shadow or has the ground texture.png not loaded in correctly?

I am willing to bet: dock and/or barge. So water, but its 1937 so lighting is not everywhere.

Being the early 1900’s, did workers smoking while stacking wood regularly cause fires?

Not really. It’s all so wet for a cigarette to cause a fire.

Now the sawmill had fuels that were flammable, but this isn’t like mattress foam warehousing. This is solid, fresh wood that isn’t going to ignite from a cigarette.

It seems inescapable that any mention of Piefed moderation provokes discussion of Lemmy politics. It was a pretty neutral portrayal of the threadiverse options and this kind of reinforces that assessment, quite frankly.

The 0.01 holds 1.77 trillion so the distribution is skewed. Furthermore there are likely many thousands of accounts in the ‘small’ amounts of tens of thousands, ostensibly for every member of an extended family in things like trust funds, etc.

Yep. Back around 2013 when the national credit rating slid down it became legal/not prohibited to do so after a lawsuit.

Eh, maybe. Thanks for providing the context for the assumption. I am not sure that makes them the same user, but it is shit if that’s support for whatever Beep is trying to do. It ain’t worth carrying water for anyone here, at any rate.

Block these accounts from the same user

How do we know it’s the same user? I know there’s vendetta against one, and the other just came out of the woodwork very recently with this whole silly crusade.

So I wouldn’t have made any sort of connection between the two accounts so I assume there’s some confirmation of that somewhere?

That was Trump’s go-to his first term. Why not the second? These ghouls are lasting longer than ever.

It’s a great example, actually. Trying to re-(re-re-re)hash 2024 is about the most counterproductive thing imaginable. If the dog’s dew claw doesn’t get purchase, what else is there to go on, right?

Yep. Hasan’s hate machine still runs with it anyway, since he draws kids away from the groypers and manosphere shit. They’re reliant on the lack of scrutiny.

Not liking is one thing. It’s another thing to take the next step and put energy into attacking Hasan. As in: the active practice of boxing out Hasan and any fans of Hasan.

He’s hugely popular with people under 30 as far as politics goes. He is turning on an entire generation towards politics while also acting as an alternative to Nick Fuentes and Andrew Tate.

So you can imagine the kind of threat he poses.

Hasan continues to be an effective litmus test.

Like, if in 2026 you’re responding to the call to actively take time and energy out to hate on Hasan, you’re squarely an anti-leftist.

It includes all land between the Euphrates and the Nile. Portions of Egypt and Saudi also in the crosshairs.

There are actually a few twitch streamers that have political experience who stream about politics. They’ve run for office, or worked in D.C., so they have some interesting insights.

But that’s not Asmongold by a longshot.

I kinda like it. It’s just neat enough.

A lot of old city plats follow the exact pattern of that square, so I’d be curious what the sequence of development was.

Disco Elysium.

First go was after finally playing Planescape : Torment and I just wasn’t in the mood for another text heavy game, even though it came highly recommended and had some voiceacting from some podcasters I knew about.

Then the Final Cut came out with all the professional voice acting and it was absolutely excellent.

You know, I think Depeche Mode is a really sweet band!

It was a neat Warcraft 3 custom map.

Then it got weird.
