Burglar in China falls asleep mid-robbery, gets arrested.
  • The dude lit up a cigarette while he was waiting but it was ultimatley his snoring that got him caught!

    The criminal, who was waiting to break inside the house, lit up a cigarette and dozed off, reports South China Morning Post.
    The outlet further reported that after the homeowner, Tang, went to sleep with her child, she woke up due to loud snoring but ignored it thinking it was a neighbor. When 40 minutes had passed, she got up to clean her child's milk bottle and noticed that the snoring grew louder and realized it was coming from another room in her house.

  • How do you feel about meal replacement options?
  • Good to know. I haven't had any issues but I drink a ton of water.

  • How do you feel about meal replacement options?
  • I make very easy shakes in my nutribullet which are just water, ice, oats, chia seed, protein powder with probiotics, peanut butter and some berries or a banana. I swap in some other things like hemp hearts for the chia sometimes.

    Tastes great and requires little effort.

  • New York Officials Debunk 'Misinformation' About Fentanyl-Laced Marijuana - Marijuana Moment
  • You wouldn't really use the same scale to weigh Fentanyl and weed. Fentanyl is dosed in micro grams. $10k of fentanyl requires a much more precise scale than $10k of weed. Typically such a precise scale cannot handle the weight of $10k of weed.

    You'd have to have a dealer who sells very large amounts of Fentanyl and very small amounts of weed.

  • Does a "housing collapse" only refer to supply? If supply increases and and prices plummet what do you call it?

    Yes, it sounds like bullshit. Did you read the article?

  • what budget 3d printer would you suggest for a beginner?
  • Same here. SV06 was my first printer a few months ago. I've printed for a few hundred hours without issue. Very easy to upgrade the software with a raspi and mainsailos.

  • I was referring to the "soda water" as "sparkling water" per the OP. I don't really know what the difference is tbh.

  • Sprite is "sparkling water" plus syrup. There's usually a second button on lemonade and lemon-lime soda which holds the syrup.

  • Unlimited Kagi searches for $10 per month | Kagi Blog
  • This is fantastic. I've been a $5 Kagi user for a few months and have been really enjoying it. The only issue has been that sometimes when I'm working on a project I need to blow through a ton of similar queries to find what I'm looking for; I've been forced to switch back to google for those. Now I've upgraded and am going full Kagi.

  • House GOP Unveils Budget With Trillions in Cuts to Medicaid, Food Benefits, and More
  • We spend 3.5% of our GDP on defense and that's actually far more than most countries. We have the 6th highest GPD to military spending ratio in the world. The countries who spend more of their GDP are relativity tiny. They amount to 11% of the total global spending on defense vs the USA's 39%.

    The second largest GDP is China- they spend 1.6% of their GDP on defense. Third is Japan @ 1.1%... You get the idea.

    Regarding the 2% NATO obligation- most members don't make it so it doesn't seem to be a real obligation.

  • Giuliani loses defamation lawsuit from two Georgia election workers
  • The Judge thinks he may have been intentionally withholding the records.

    “Perhaps he has made the calculation that his overall litigation risks are minimized by not complying with his discovery obligations in this case,” Judge Beryl Howell of the US District Court in Washington, DC, wrote Wednesday. “Whatever the reason, obligations are case specific and withholding required discovery in this case has consequences.”

    Country singer Oliver Anthony’s “Rich Men North of Richmond” promotes antisemitism and racism
  • The singer does seem to be trying to distance himself from the conservative implications:

    https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/25/entertainment/oliver-anthony-song-response/index.html

    “The one thing that has bothered me is seeing people wrap politics up into this,” Anthony said. “It’s aggravating seeing people on conservative news try to identify with me, like I’m one of them. It’s aggravating seeing certain musicians and politicians act like we’re buddies and act like we’re fighting the same struggle here, like that we’re trying to present the same message.”

    But the line about:

    Well, God, if you're five-foot-three and you're three-hundred pounds
    Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of Fudge Rounds

    seems a bit hateful unless that's supposed to be a metaphor for "fat cats". The CNN article thinks it's a metaphor:

    "though it has also courted controversy for its lyrics referring to politicians as “obese,” welfare recipients “milking” the system,"

    But the antisemitic connotations seem like a stretch to me. To assuming that criticism of capitalists is automatically antisemitic seems pretty antisemitic to me in it's own right.
