When you can make your avatar have your proportions and try on clothes online, more people will understand the benefits of the metaverse.

It isn’t as common as it once was but, there are still some people out there on turntables. A-Track is a modern day legend

Reply to comment by mashtato in TIL In 1930, to make way for a new building, the Indiana Bell Building, weighing 11,000 tons, was moved 16 meters and rotated 90°. The work took a month to finish and did not disrupt the building's essential services, nor its gas, water, and electricity supply. No one inside felt the building move. by LPercepts
I’d love to have seen this thread play out before someone pointed out it’s a typo

No. It’s actually the main highway in the area. It’s also a junction that leads to all the communities in the area. I mean, it’s not the transcanada by any means. The population up there is sparse in comparison to the more southern part of Saskatchewan.
People have bitched about the tree line in the past, but no one important enough died at that intersection. After that accident swept across the world, they levelled the trees and now has the brightest flashing stop light I’ve ever seen. I mean you see that light from ten minutes away at night. It lights up the immediate area.
That tree line made it so you couldn’t see north bound traffic when heading west and vice versa. It was even said, when it first happened, that the bus driver may have been able to avoid the accident had he had a line of site. He wouldn’t have seen the semi until it was too late.

I live 20 minutes east of humboldt and an hour south of the accident site. That intersection was known for accidents. It’s not so much that the intersection was poorly built. It’s the fact that someone lives on the south east corner and the yard WAS heavily treed. There was no way to see traffic coming and many people paid the price. The trees have been torn down since and they now have a flashing light for the stop sign as that isn’t the first time someone didn’t see it.

I’m not versed in starlink. I’m a rehabilitating Cult of Musk member and will need a moment.

He can do it just like he did self driving cars, the roadster, the cybertruck and solar roofs safely and on time.

I’ve watched that show turn a three year old speaking pretty much complete sentences into a babbling idiot. Not just during the show. It took the rest of the day for him to shake it off.

Reply to comment by jesteruru in TIL after another band backed out, Malcolm McLaren suggested Siouxsie Sioux and the Banshees play the 100 Club Punk Special. At the time, the band consisted only of Siouxsie Sioux and Steven Severin, so they had to borrow two musicians, one of which was Sid Vicious (who played drums). by man_itsahot_one
