Where did the opioid crisis come from? Who caused it?

Well will it run Winamp because I inadvertently read the title as Winamp and now I need it again

I’m just spitballing here, I have no clue, but they have a bunch of (used to be pretty toxic) oil inside these and maybe during any sudden impact, making it scoot a little is preferable to the thing busting open and spilling everywhere? Sort of like the telecom cabinet in the other photo that was secured to the ground and shattered when it was hit

I couldn’t really tell you why, just that they aren’t typically bolted down.

Also, that’s a telecom crossbox in your photo. Here’s some lawn mowing site warning about the risk of hitting them and moving them:

The door locks, sure, and the entire thing is a good 200lbs+, but it’s often still just resting on top of the concrete pad. Kids probably can’t push it but an adult can probably hip check it an inch at a time.

Maybe a rider lawnmower bumps it and moves it 3 inches and now there’s a crevice between the concrete pad and the transformer that kids can reach into and grab high voltage power lines.

They ARE fairly safe, a lot of things have to go wrong, but bottom line it’s still something that will kill.

I’ve worked around them, and I never shooed or chastised any kids I saw playing on them. I’d just do a quick inspection with them, point out that it’s not crooked or bent or anything so they know what to look out for. I’d really prefer they didn’t play on it, but I get it

I think you can blame God for that one

Does soda have pairings like wine? I had no idea, I just cracked open sodas. What kinda faux pas have I been doing all my life? Oh God, is everyone looking at me weird when I drink soda wrong?

This feels line the ‘YOUR AD HERE’ version of putting missing kids on milk cartons. Does the presence of the milkwalker mean no kids went missing that week? Maybe we should want to see the milkwalker more often.

If that’s the case, then we anthropomorphize technology all the time. Like, constantly. How many times has your phone died when its not even alive? How does a phone drop a connection without hands? We feed a computer input and it regurgitates or spits out output, all without a mouth. The examples are endless but hard to immediately pick out, because the usage has changed to be completely commonplace. Even bytes were originally conceived as a play on words with ‘bite sized’ to refer to a small collection of bits. I don’t necccessarily defend these ‘AI’ tools, but policing the language people use ain’t it. Changing the word hallucinate to refer to a part of technology is exactly how language has functioned since always

I just spent 20 hours on the demo for the new game roadcraft. I’m just pushing dirt around in a tractor like I’m playing with Tonka trucks back when I was 5. I haven’t really done anything interesting, just leveled dirt. Anyway, ill probably put in another 6 hours today after work.

What he means is it would be a lot easier for him to have adult conversations with underage children on the internet if everyone wasn’t always watching him. How’s he going to buy and hang cartoon CP on the walls if he’s poor though?

Sorry, you’re right, I was way too low. But let’s be realistic it will be more like $420,690

It’s simple, just pay FDOGE(formerly the FDA) $100/mo and you can put a special blue checkmark on your food packaging to signify its not junk food.

I’m surprised he didn’t tip on the entrance ramp. Makes me think he dumped his load at some highway construction and had barely started going before this happened

I don’t know why, this reminds me of that cursed Animal Crossing ‘playthru’

His orange crush isn’t weed this time

The footprints of our shoes were already there
You stole even the cat's food
And you're still licking the plate
Super pissed off with this ungrateful bunch
Today I hit the drums hard
Until they accuse me of mistreatment
If you don't understand the fact
Well, I throw it at you as cumbia, bossa nova, tango or vallеnato
As calabó or bamboo, highly defiant
With hot blood as Timbuktu
We're insidе the menu
2Pac is called 2Pac, because of Túpac Amaru of Peru
America isn't only the USA, pal
This is from Tierra del Fuego to Canada
You have to be so stupid, such an airhead
It's like saying that Africa is only Morocco
These scoundrels forgot that the calendar they use
Was invented by the Mayans
With the pre-Columbian Valdivia for a long time, uh
This continent walks
But even with all the marines
They can't get the peasant plague out off the showcase
This goes for the boss of the company
The machete isn't just for cutting cane
It's also for cutting heads

Here we are, we always are
We haven't left, we won't leave
Here we are, so that you remember
If you want it, my machete bites

The paramilitaries, the guerrillas
The children of the conflict, the gangs
The blacklists, the false positives
The murdered journalists, the disappeared
The narco-governments, everything they stole
Those who manifest and those who were forgotten
The persecutions, the coups
The bankrupt country, the exiles
The devalued peso
The drug trafficking, the cartels
The invasions, the immigrants without papers
Five presidents in eleven days
Close range shooting at the hands of the police
More than a hundred years of torture
The Nova Trova singing in the midst of a dictatorship
We are the blood that blows
The atmospheric pressure
Gambino, my brother, this really is America```
