lived in mn my whole life and have never had snow tires. regardless of the hills, which are legit, a lot of it really is just experience driving in those conditions

People say this and there’s an element of truth, but also Portland doesn’t use road salt and the big storms tend to involve snow that thaws and then refreezes making things much slicker than normal snowy conditions. Like half the wrecks here when it snows are recent transplants from the Midwest rolling their eyes and reminding everyone they got this cause they got experience

Sounds like they should use salt after big storms then, what's the deal?

Don't have the infrastructure, don't want to invest in the infrastructure for snow events that happen really sporadically - I think there's been three serious ones since I've lived here (this year, 2017, 2014, I missed the big 2008 one by a year or two), plus I don't know how you'd salt after the snow already fell without first plowing the streets which the city has maybe half a dozen plows (for the same reason as above). IDK, it's just not a big deal in the grand scheme of things but I will repeat the people who get the most hosed by the snow are the midwest transplants who think they have a lifetime of experience and they can handle it, it's not even really all that bad, just generally slicker than people from snowy areas are used to

not sure if joking but portland has more varied elevation terrain and the minnesota people have snow tires, there is no great mystery

in Illinois, I can attest to people just lugging around a plow on their pickup rather than think about things like "change my tires for the right season"

IIRC Felix's "type" is something like "older blonde Republican women."

Like during the Tabletop Game Theory where he did the "joke" about his character banging Ivanka Trump

Makes sense, it seemed from the way people were talking that this happened once or twice a year.

I'm not through the whole episode of trueanon but so far Felix is real hung up on the 40% accuracy thing. Shooting more or less full auto at a crowd of 22,000 from rest, from elevation, that seems entirely plausible. It's not like he's hitting discrete targets.

not a big fan of salt on the roads because it rusts the undercarriage to hell

in some places it snows so much they don’t even bother, it will just refreeze into ice so they put down sand for traction instead

Opiates don't really make you "addled" in the same way as many other drugs, though (unless you're mixing them with something or taking doses so high that you're nodding off); I can remember stuff pretty easily from back when I was recreationally using. It's why people can continue working while on them without any troubles. They're obviously not uppers, but they fit into the same sort of category of "drugs you can easily maintain a career and otherwise 'act normal' while using."

Yeah, my first car post-college I bought from my grandfather in Boston, and even though it only had 13k miles on it its undercarriage was heavily rusted. This ended up being a problem when I had some mechanical difficulties that would have been very difficult to diagnose because of the rust (or something like that, forget the details).

This week's Trashfuture bonus episode was a banger. Riley has the best analysis on NFT and Crypoto Currency that I found so far. The episode also made me appreciate Trash Future's dynamic of Reley offering good and thoughtful commentary while he lets everyone else riff and try to distract him from the topic. Trashfuture is best neither is overcoming the other.
