If they start releasing a new processor every year it’s going to be a shit show.

Reply to comment by AverageATuin in Does anyone actually believe those guys attacked the power substations to rob a store? by 420_Braze_it
I don’t use meth but I have worked with guys who do. I agree, this fits tweaked logic. Never attribute to terrorism that which can be explained by meth, I say.

Depends how you define it, maybe. From 2004 to 2008 it was incredibly active and has been considered a “slow” eruption. It got a new lava dome and everything.

I still don't get the why of it though. Why are these yokels trying to take out power sub-stations? What's their goal?

It was one of my most-used apps. Brilliant pre-wireless way to take stuff on the go.
Also, did anyone else play Overload? It's a lot of fun and can ruin friendships.

Look, I grew up here. I love this mountain. But one day it’s going to kill every one of us, yet we still love it. What in the fuck is wrong with us? But I still love it.

Reply to comment by DarkAlman in ELI5: Everyone knows that Ticketmaster is the biggest scumbucket enterprise on the planet yet no band seems able to avoid their grasp. What's to stop a really major act (e.g. Taylor Swift) from performing in venues that are not controlled by Ticketmaster, or just setting up a parallel company? by havereddit
This is the main thing.
Years ago, many venues, especially medium sized clubs, got sick of ticketmaster so many in the bigger cities started going to more customer-friendly alternatives. Many alternatives have started, as the online ticket-selling business isn't that complex. Many venues even signed exclusive contracts with these alternative companies.
Thing is, Ticketmaster hates competition, so it would borrow cash to buy the alternative companies. At this point they've bought pretty much all of them out. And when buying them, they get the exclusive contracts that they had with the venues.
Thus Ticketmaster doesn't just eliminate competition, it receives exclusivity. This has been going on non-stop that last 15 years or so, and it needs to be stopped. Even the venues hate Ticketmaster but they have no choice.
