Not read the thread because news on 12oz is generally bad, so are there retard Trump voters on here? If so, why you so fucking stupid? From an outside USA view, I'd like to know. I dont mean republican voters that will just vote for him so dems don't get in, I mean people that actually agree with the cunt3 points

More challenging than it seems, you can't just roll up a message, cork the bottle, and throw it in the ocean. On my first attempts the bottles were smashed against rocks and the ocean spent the next 2 days mocking me by spitting all the contents back on to the beach in pieces. Even if you get a successful launch, the odds of it being found again are slim, and the odds of getting it far, like across the ocean, are also slim. May not even be found in my lifetime. I've had to consult maps and charts of currents/tides. Bodies of land have currents that run around them and if you can't get the bottle past them the bottle will travel along these currents and may or may not go far. I try to launch these as the tide is going out to help get the bottles past the shore currents. Seemed successful this time, those sea ducks were real curious about them. So thoughts ideas on the following: Any messsage placed in the bottle has to be rolled and then tied. If not tied the paper expands in the bottle and can't be retrieved without breaking the glass. I've been using dental floss to tie the message with extra floss up and out the bottle neck to help pull the message back out when unsealed. Not sure over time if the dental floss will cut through the paper or if it will somehow degrade and affect the contents. Maybe I should be using string. The seal. I've been using cork or rubber stoppers with a layer of filament tape over that. Then dipped in melted wax. When wrapped right the filament tape provides an edge that can be peeled later like on a wine bottle. On the bottles above I skipped the tape. I don't know how the wax performs. I've used melted candle wax before and also gulf wax. Not sure if gulf wax is good for this use, on the above I went w/ candle wax. Obviously the seal is important and I don't know if gulf wax might degrade or otherwise melt because it has oil in it and is flammable. I'm sure I can go get some marine type wax but trying to be more DIY here.3 points

Ya i’m pretty fucking over people and commercials telling me to “vote” when we all know what they really want to say is “Vote for Biden.” At least have the balls to just say it.3 points

So as some of you every day die hards have noticed, we've had a bunch of technical issues between yesterday and today. We had to do a few server upgrades, but more so, we had to do a major forum software update. That, in turn, forced a bunch of updates to the forum theme files so I had to go through all of that and revert a bunch of stuff, as well as rework a bunch of customizations into the new themes. Anyhow, all of that is a long ass way of saying that we're working to improve the experience on 12oz. I'll try and loop back to update the New Forum - Features worth checking out, tips and tricks thread when I have a minute and honestly really wanted to put together a tutorials section to help the new kids on here. Also, planning to eventually getting around to putting together a community rules, as well as a debate guidelines for the News section or wherever we decide to have intelligent discussion. For now, feel free to poke around and drop me a DM if you see something fucked up (include a summary and screen grab). I'm still refining the theme, but does already feel slightly slicker than the last version.2 points

Rando related find: https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/16/us/mystery-boat-found-on-lake-superior-is-27-years-old-trnd/index.html I've thought to do some in some rivers to see if I could get them to travel through states and/or to the ocean2 points

Whats interesting is that I have two cell phones. 1 personal, which I never give out the number or use it for store purchases etc. 2 business, and I give that number out over the internet when buying stuff and what not. So basically I get a lot of spam calls on my business. Next to zero on my personal. But what I have also noticed is that I began to turn off my business phone around 6pm - 7am mon thru fri and turn it off again fri 6pm - mon 7am. What i immediately noticed by doing this after a few weeks, is the spam calls were less. I am not sure if the phone being off and no chance of ringing, it makes the auto dialer system think its a bad number or disconnected line? Idk 🤷♂️ but it does help.2 points

thats pretty fucking cool dude.. i wish there was a way to see the persons reaction to when they open the FIAJ and get a good wiff of it.. i do know from randomly getting lost on youtube you CAN preserve farts for later dates but by vacuum sealing a can and putting it in a freezer.. im sure/hopeful it works just as well by just farting in a bottle as well and sealing it as quickly as possible.. also maybe some ordinary fishing string will work best to tie the notes..? not sure if they're too hard or would tear the paper or whatever but its a thought..2 points

I was just thinking earlier this morning about how the terms Democrat and Republican really hold no meaning in what the actual parties stand for. Registering as “Left” or “Right” would really make more sense these days than registering as a Democrat or Republican.2 points

@misteraventhat’s not really how I view the subject. I literally look at right wing beliefs as “socialist” as in using the government to enforce an impossible utopia that can never exist. A true libertarian gives zero fucks about his neighbor as long as his neighbor isn’t aggressing against others, as in violating NAP (theft, fraud, physical harm etc. AKA crimes with actual victims). freedom has little to do with the rules one sets for themselves, and has everything to do with the rules one sets for others. Both the left, and the right have long lists of traits disqualifying other individuals from enjoying freedom. For the left winger, making/keeping too much money is offensive. They want to use the government to restrict that. For the right winger, not having the proper immigration paperwork is also something they want to use force to restrict that. Those two are only two, in a long list of examples showing both sides do not value freedom over their vision on how to shape the world around them for the better. You’re only truly libertarian when you’re content in everyone’s freedom to do whatever they want outside of violating your freedom, property, or safety rights etc. Progressives don’t have this same view on freedom, and think there are disqualifiers like “making more money than me”, or “not having the same beliefs/culture” as me that disqualify other people, and for some die hard believers even themselves from enjoying freedom. There are literally people clapping every time the IRS conducts an audit/raid, and people clapping every time ICE arrests verifies the paperwork of, or arrests “an illegal”. It’s not that people like me thing things will get better if we just open our borders, I know wages will go down in some labor markets, it will get more crowded etc. These consequences are facts. I just have problems with it for a couple of very reasons, mainly the massive harm enforcement tends to have on society as a whole, and how it outweighs any benefit enforcement produces. All in all, the same exact view I have on Socialism, the unintended consequences far outweigh and positives you can attribute to this encroachment on freedom.2 points

@misteraven @Dirty_habiT - can you add a background that makes it feel like I live in an isolated A-frame cabin on the lake in the middle of nowhere? Maybe some subtle bird chirping sounds? And every once in a while a doe and her fawns walks by, stop and stare at me enjoying the surrounding solitude on my large patio overlooking the lake, and then continue on to graze. That would be awesome, thanks.2 points

4000lb Warn Winch for my trailer. Going to tow my brother's 1992 Skyline GTS-T from Dallas in a few weeks. It's just like this one, except we've upgraded it quite a bit:2 points

@swif1For real. Who would have thought that buying clothes that fit properly would be so hard.2 points

You should have pulled the “undecided voter” and make her convince you of the merits of her constituency, but it’s good to fold up a tarp with trash bags and a hack saw in your trunk, and you can NEVER have enough ZIP TIES2 points

but if the bot is sending titty flIx and talking dirty, kinda worth it, no? I mean fuck, I’d assume they could actually charge for that. Not sure it counts as spam. Bonus for the boy sending Russian hot girl titties.2 points

Sounds like a robbery setup but who knows. I went over to some girls apartment 3 weeks ago because she said she wanted to bang that night on bumble but didn't smash because I said I wasn't going to vote for biden and she kicked me out1 point

Ha. I knew someone who had an Italian restaurant in a good location in NYC. I'm sure the customers thought they were eating homemade ravioli and tortellini. Meanwhile they bought that shit by the bucket from Costco and threw a little cheese and chopped parsley or basil on it then charged around $20.1 point
