  • Buy used or second hand if you can and build what you can.

    We definitely do. 90% of the stuff in our house is from the thrift store. I have hand tools that are over 100 years old and still work great!

  • What's your disgust at the people of china ?

    Well that's a leading question if I've ever seen one. I have nothing against the people of China. I have major issues with the government, and with the fact that they have literal slaves, working themselves to death for the benefit of immensely wealthy people that have more money than they could spend in a thousand opulent lifetimes. I have issues with child labor, and a lack of policies to protect the workers. Yes I know I own Chinese stuff. You can't escape it anymore, but where there are alternatives, I always take them.

  • I guess I like prehistoric the best from an artistic perspective, but none of them effectively convey the size and power of the balrog.

  • Idk about you guys, but I'm not interested in a Chinese car. I don't even want Chinese tools. I have to buy all my hand tools from Germany or Japan now, since every US hand tool company manufacturers in China now.

  • Finances. It costs money to run the heater, and working class families are on really regimented budgets. A difference of $30-$50 in your power bill can really mess things up when you're living on a strict budget.

  • Ancient wisdom often sounds like common sense now that it is commomly taught. What is some ancient wisdom that we no longer teach because it was wrong?

  • It was somewhat safe when there were like 2 billion people on the planet. Not so much when there's 8 billion.

  • I figure that's about what a CD used to cost back in the day, adjusted for inflation. We were paying $16 for a CD back in the early 90's. Records are probably more expensive to make, and often have really cool artwork as inserts. There's the thrift store too though. About half of my record collection are original presses that I got from the thrift store for twenty five cents each. They don't sound as good, but they're pretty neat. Sometimes I buy a record at the thrift store just because it has cool artwork, like the Chicago album that has pressed engraving artwork, like dollar bills.

    Edit: wow, CDs actually cost more back then adjusted for inflation. $36.12 in 1992.

  • That's what I thought of too. I heard he kept making videos, and eventually she's back, so I guess she changed her mind and they stayed married.

    Edit: I just watched it and this is actually a different one. The one I saw was with a younger couple and he doesn't say anything about her leaving. He just does his review and she's in the background throwing shit around, and moving boxes.

  • I do miss not being expected to have my phone with me all the time

    I didn't have a cell phone for long after they became mainstream. I still remember a friend hitting me up on Facebook with a message saying he had been calling me all day and kept getting VM, asking why I don't answer my phone. I thoroughly enjoyed saying "I wasn't home and don't take my landline with me when I go out". I do have a cellphone now, and I dislike how people freak out if you don't respond within 10 minutes. Like, chill the fuck out dude, I'm doing things.

    I do miss the era of physical media

    I still buy vinyl records, and love listening to them. Thankfully they're hipster now, so you can get high quality, deep cut records for just about any album. I buy CDs at the thrift store for $0.25-$1.00. I've managed to buy every CD I lost throughout my life, plus everything else I always wanted, but couldn't afford. I even found the Pink Floyd Pulse album in perfect condition for $2.
