Perpetual Motion (en.wikipedia.org)

Perpetual motion is the motion of bodies that continues forever in an unperturbed system. A perpetual motion machine is a hypothetical machine that can do work indefinitely without an external energy source. This kind of machine is impossible, since its existence would violate the first and/or second laws of thermodynamics.

Looks like a few posts with some decent points and like thirty messages of arguing about the argument where it gets so meta I can't even tell who's arguing what.

I donno if it deserved a ban but I could see a mod wanting to shut it down.

And jesus christ, you're still fighting about the bolding here? Everyone involved sucks.

You can get into almost anywhere with a brown, collared shirt and a cardboard box.

Deep Spy Penetration

A game to play when bored in an unfamiliar building. The goal is to get into as many areas of the building as possible without being told to leave.

Rules:

  • Don’t be an asshole. Don’t steal stuff, break anything or move barricades.
  • Don’t lie to get access. Asking is allowed.
  • Opening doors with easily missed “no entry” signs is allowed, anything the average person might not see. Don’t open doors with blatant warnings.
  • If you get caught you lose.
  • If you set off an alarm you mega-lose.

And a best selling breakfast wrap at a restaurant.

A self proclaimed prophetic witch from Australia I met while cybersexting in a yahoo chat room told me George Bush was going to start a war if he got elected.

I'm a chick, responding because you mentioned some women are grossed out by intact dicks.

Every penis is different in its own weird way so whether there's foreskin or not is just an extra thing. Size/shape/foreskin/existence doesn't affect how I think about the person.

Any person who thinks men ought to be mutilated to be attractive is lacking in empathy and judgment, and my entire friend group thinks the same thing.

Feltober Week 2 (sh.itjust.works)

I haven't been in a drawing mood, so I've been felting every day and experimenting with layers and textures. And I made a pouch for my e-reader.

Everything is wet felted from locally sourced wool, using resists I cut from old reusable grocery bags and shaped with balloons or bottles.

Wet felting is a process of agitating mostly wool and sometimes other fibres until it forms a solid piece, using soap and water. Many hats are made this way, though that process is more refined than what I'm doing.

A "Resist" is something the wool won't felt to, that you use as a basic shape to felt around. I make everything flat and shape it after.

Yeah, I don't know what's going on here. Looks like a mod having a breakdown. I posted the rest for context and I'm in the middle.

I got linked to the comment chain from elsewhere. The comment had a link to a tech dude's blog, supposed to point out his white supremecism. I didn't see anything bad in that article, but stumbled on another one with nazi apologia, thought they may have linked the wrong article, posted it. That's it. That's all I did.

I guess it is called awful.systems and the culture confuses me, but man, what a dick move to call me a facist in the modlog.

If nothing else, I hope this drama is entertaining.

Edit: Because this is, well, the internet: I was not defending DHH. Another removed/banned comment said they couldn't find anything bad in that link either, so I found one where DHH was being more blatant in his bullshit.
