Kalkaline , to Ask Lemmy in In what scenario is conscription acceptable? (if any)
@Kalkaline@leminal.space avatar

I used to be against the draft or conscription, but someone made the argument that people are far less war hungry when they or their loved ones might end up on the front lines. In that case, I'm all for it as long as the rich, politically connected, and otherwise privileged are treated like the rest of us. Otherwise the next best option is an all volunteer military.

I legit forgot my roommate's name in college while he was right in front of me.

Just looking at the production process of methanol vs ethanol it's way more likely that some asshole found some industrial methanol and stole it and used it to boost the potency of their product to boost their profit. Making enough methanol on a homebrew level to be dangerous is actually pretty tricky to do.

@Kalkaline@leminal.space avatar

$80,000 sounds like a steal for what happened.

Yes it does taste like Buffalo Wings, they also had a Ranch flavor to go along with it.

Kalkaline , to World News in Israeli soldiers who drove with wounded Palestinian tied to their vehicle 'violated orders', military says
@Kalkaline@leminal.space avatar

Horrific, not only is it a vertically shot video, but it's also got bars on the side of it. The least shocking thing here is the IDF human rights abuses.

Kalkaline , to World News in Israeli Attack on Rafah Tent Camp Kills Dozens, Wounds 50
@Kalkaline@leminal.space avatar

I'm convinced at this point that the US is only keeping Israel supplied with weapons because of how important control of the Suez Canal is. Having an ally close to that region is important and Turkey is just not quite close enough

Kalkaline , to Home Improvement in DIY hot / bath tub in shed?
@Kalkaline@leminal.space avatar

Consider the humidity in the shed and ventilation.

Kalkaline , to World News in At least 34 dead, dozen hospitalized after drinking illegally brewed liquor in southern India

Fucking idiots. It's very difficult to make enough methanol to be dangerous with a standard mash and distilling methods. Most of the time these fucking idiots are using stolen methanol from industrial sites to bump up their ABV and they make people super sick with it. Stop killing/hospitalizing your customers and you won't get caught.

Americans will use anything but metric as a unit of measurement.

Kalkaline , to Videos in Millionaire Investment Banker Jonathan Kaye caught punching, and breaking an unarmed woman's nose during Brooklyn Pride Festival
@Kalkaline@leminal.space avatar

I'm not a huge fan of brief videos with little context, but it doesn't look like much context is needed here.

Kalkaline , to Technology in EVs Could Last Nearly Forever—If Car Companies Let Them
@Kalkaline@leminal.space avatar

Probably turned off traction control and floored it. EVs have some pretty solid acceleration and weight a bit more than their ICE counterparts.

Kalkaline , to World News in Four Israeli hostages rescued alive; at least 210 people killed in Gaza, officials say
@Kalkaline@leminal.space avatar

Thank goodness the hostages didn't get killed by the Israeli Defense Forces, those guys love to kill innocent people like the 210 others.
