"we're on a mission from God"

a little blunt, but there's the classic Boaty McBoatface

North East, US here. probably fine but I don't trust it. we use a water filter for drinking

I loved stumbled upon! it's got repetitive after a while, but I found a bunch of stuff I never otherwise would have

it's gotta be, but.... nah, no one's that stupid to take that seriously.

right?

huh - I never thought of it that way but of course it makes total sense.

I love this question - simple but thought provoking!

I'm late to the party here, but since I didn't see it mention elsewhere, I'll throw up unbreakable with Bruce Willis. given his health conditions, it won't happen with him but it might be able to happen with somebody else in his place.

I feel like that movie established some solid characters and a somewhat unique case of the every man turned superhero. The whole idea of him just being able to touch someone and then get a glimpse into their hidden life was really cool. Plus there was the relationship with his son, bad guy suffering from that brittle bone disease to contrast with Bruce Willis's character being, well, unbreakable. it was a good setup I thought for a whole series of films.

totally agree in principle. my edc of choice has been the Leatherman skeletool for the last 5 years. pliers, Phillips and flat head and blade have been the perfect combination to balance portability and utility

hysterical and a great human despite difficult circumstances

many people come back from near death experiences with insight about the whole structure of the universe. one common theme they report is that we all chose the lives we're living because these lives offered the best opportunity to learn and grow. they say we come back many times until we learn everything we need to.

so, if true, the downside is that you and I will probably be back. but, the upside is that we won't keep coming back forever and that we can curtail the number of times we will return by being the best people we can and by learning as much as we can.

yep, same here.

which brings up another good suggestion (since I haven't seen it yet)... AvE. https://youtube.com/@arduinoversusevil2025. if you like smart, irreverent commentary on tool build quality and other similar stuff, this cannuk is freaking hysterical. and, I must say, quite informative

cue the adrenaline......
