Reply to comment by Veritas3333 in TIL that the red lights on top of tall buildings in cities are called “aviation obstruction lighting,” and are used to help pilots of low-flying aircraft avoid collisions with otherwise hard-to-see structures. by bearjew64
I'm surprised they didn't just buy a politician and have the regulations changed.

Reply to Global food consumption alone could add nearly 1 °C to warming by 2100. Seventy five percent of this warming is driven by foods that are high sources of methane (ruminant meat, dairy and rice). by Plant__Eater
The saddest thing about this is how much of the food produced gets thrown away.

It's visual. AAMOF, sometimes I recall things that I read as a kid and I have a hard time remembering whether it was a book or movie.

Reply to TIL "A Christmas Story" was initially overlooked and only became a classic after Ted Turner purchased the rights and began airing it yearly on cable TV. by habalushy
It was an instant classic for me in 1983 as soon as I saw the trailer. I got a VHS copy for Xmas as soon as it was released sometime in the late 80s or early 90s.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Classified files found at Biden's Delaware home by Gavel_the_Baker
Imagine getting downvoted for insulting that kid sniffing piece of shit. I hated Trump with every fiber of my being but that doesn't mean I have to embrace his replacement rapist racist warmongering alzheimers patient. Fuck Joe Biden and his entire fucking family. I'd like to see the entire Trump and Biden families exiled to Epstein Island with nothing but a box of swords.

This is nothing new. Look up McNamara's Morons. The military loves using low IQ folks as cannon fodder.

When I was a kid, I thought we'd be drinking and irrigating with desalinated ocean water by now. Maybe no one has figured out the best way to profit from it yet although I understand that Isreal has been using desalinated water for a couple of decades.

I've never watched The Expanse but I'm putting it on my list. I love sci-fi so I don't know how I missed this one.

Reply to The first Grisham book I simply couldn’t finish by SuccessfulLoser-
I enjoyed his legal thrillers when I was younger but my favorite book is A Painted House. It's the only JG book I've read multiple times. It's a great piece of southern literature.
