I just discovered him a couple months ago, and basically just yes, this is the level of detail that I need.

Edit: also, I've wanted a heat pump since I was a kid, so, ya know..

When I rented a 26' U-Haul it was an F-650. That's pretty much the only time I've seen one.

More or less? Actually it's more like extortion as written, but generally speaking rent seeking is buying something that you can get others to pay you for regularly. Like "hey, this land has oil, I'll buy it and lease the oil rights" or "hey, this land has a house on it that people like to live in, I'll buy it and lease the habitation rights".

So the weird block character in the "see... for details" line is replacing "nitrd-switch-roo" just to shorten the line? That's what I was trying to figure out.

Woah, I grew up in Portland, do they really call it soda there now? That's wild.

Wow that's awful. My highest rated comments on Reddit all seemed to be about a personal tragedy, so I quit going to look at my comment scores. Glad I'm not there to experience this.

Lately I've been seriously thinking about resurrecting my FidoNet node. It looks like FidoNet still exists!

I imagine to accomplish this, you would probably be trying to rotate them out rather than pulling straight up.
