I don't bookmark threads. You have to see them first in the wild in order to bookmark them and that's the benefit of not just going through your bookmarked list. You see more threads that might be interesting. :)

Also I'm very lazy.

I believe it auto bookmarks a thread when you post in it.

I suspect those boxing machines actually measure how fast you make the target move, not how hard you hit it. For something with a lot of mass those will scale together but for something small and light you just needed to hit it relatively lightly with something moving fast.

This distinction, along with an understanding of what might happen after he hits the bag, was lost on this friend. He probably thought "if I throw my whole body at it that will be like punching it really hard" when in fact it was more like bumping into it at 10ish mph. On the plus side he probably didn't feel too much pain from this until the next morning.

My wife's grandmother had an "indian princess" story in her lineage, but when she was younger in the 50s or something she had her own great aunt set the story straight. Gommie's great-great grandmother was Nipmuc, but she was a prostitute who got pregnant from the scion of a hoity-toity old-money family and they raised the kid. Never actually claimed to be Native, it was more of a "even old money has dumb stories they're ashamed of" thing.

Do you have a story for that? I love corporations sabotaging themselves because its proof the inevitable contradictions in capitalism will eventually cause it to eat itself.

If you mean the kmart part, I got confused and it was actually Sears. He also owned Kmart and ruined that, but the ridiculous retail cannibalism part was with Sears.

https://nypost.com/2018/10/15/how-eddie-lampert-led-sears-into-bankruptcy-disaster/


quote:

Lampert, meanwhile, had been jumping from one oddball turnaround strategy to the next. He obsessed over competing with Amazon, but refused to spend big on Sears’ web business. After proposing and ditching a number of new store formats, Lampert quietly divided Sears Holdings into more than 30 different corporate silos, encouraging the head of each to compete for resources with the others, “Hunger Games”-style.

It sounded like something out of a novel by Ayn Rand, the capitalist philosopher whose 1943 novel “The Fountainhead” became the namesake of Lampert’s 288-foot yacht.

is a pizza stone just another way to sell rocks to dumb nerds, like whiskey stones, or does it actually do anything

The stone gets hot in the oven and then when you put a cold pizza on it it is able to start cooking the bottom of the cold dough faster than if it was on a cold pan. I assume it also absorbs some amount of moisture from the crust as it cooks.

I think it makes sense, think of a camera flash being very brief but very bright. Our brain ignores the darkness in between strobes and just sort of fills in the pieces. You'd lose some detail, especially on things that are moving relative to you, but again our brain is just going to either fill in or ignore that anyway.
