  • It’s different for everyone. My tolerance has been built over more than a decade. For me it was bad when it’s continuous for 3 or more days of heavy at night and a few drinks during the day to keep the hangover at bay. The quantity was somewhere around 1-1.5L 80 proof per day. I don’t do this anymore because of withdrawal. I could still function well enough and coffee helps with shakes. The depression can be bad, the horror nightmares are bad, mild hallucinating sometimes, and lots of sweating.

    When I’m normal nightly drinking and no day drinking a normal night is 10 1.5oz full shots of 80 proof.

    I do also stop occasionally and I know that I need to slow/stop or it will kill me. Also don’t see my number and use it to ignore your own problems. A lot of people die before they get to my quantities. For reference I’m a 185lb 5’11" dude and weirdly still am in almost half marathon shape. The exercise keeps some of the negative effects of drinking so much at bay. I also take B-vitamins every day.

    I’ve used weed as risk mitigation in the past. It didn’t stick though, it makes me feel lethargic for days.





  • The one person I know who owns a cyber truck was upset when I didn’t call him when I had a truck needing emergency, my wife’s car had broken down on a freeway offramp. The people that own these stupid things are cos playing as truck people even moreso than the average truck owner. The weirder part of his upsetness is, I was already driving a 3/4 ton truck because my commuter vehicle was not running. All I had to do was go get a uhaul trailer and go get her car. My mind is still boggled that he threw a fit about not calling him.









  • Any company will market that its ideas are possible. The article you linked is promising, but take it with a huge grain of salt. They are moving the goalposts the whole article. Flat graphene is a great material for space elevators, but it can’t currently be created without defects. Polycrystaline means the graphene created includes defects sort of. It means the graphene they created that is km’s long has shitloads of places where cycle loading will cause it to fail way under (like 10%) of its expected load carrying capacity.

    Edit: I want this technology to exist. My MS in mechanical engineering focused in materials science tells me we are quite far from it happening.





  • Totally incorrect for both posts. A geo with winter tires is better in the snow than a truck on 40 inch mud tires. Winter tires feel like turning on the cheat codes when it’s slick. They have like 10 times the grip of good all seasons below freezing.

    I drive on unmaintained roads a lot in the winter. The hakkapeliittas on my truck let me drive in 2wd until the snow is a foot deep.
