Is there a “torrenting for absolute tech illiterate morons” guide out there?

Agree on the rugs but motorcycles are more of a “I hate people” thing. I’m an EMT that dailies a bike and tons of my coworkers ride too

Are you a hyena OP?

Most modern flat roofs (at least in my neck of the woods) aren’t actually flat. They’re at an incredibly shallow pitch. In residential applications (after underlayment) we use high density foam slats that get put together in a grid formation, each piece gets slightly narrower on one end until they can properly fit under a piece of bird stop around the fascia. Before the bird stop goes on, the foam is sealed with a waterproof self adhering material that comes in huge rolls. When properly installed, they can last 15-30 years. Just as long, if not longer, than any shingle roof. There’s also high density polyurethane foam flat roofs that can be sealed and are able to last up to 50 years. Many commercial operations use these methods as well as hot tar mopping, which can basically last forever. The one drawback to flat roofs is load bearing difficulties in places that snow. I don’t know much about that but seeing as flat roofs are everywhere in the north too, it must not be too difficult to work around.

Don’t get me wrong, I love a good tile roof too, but there’s plenty of beautiful structures with flat roofs out there. And tile has considerable draw backs as well. Tile is incredibly heavy, they’re very fragile, they’re ludicrously expensive, and they’re expensive to maintain.

On the rain, no roofer is working in the rain, and tile roofs are vulnerable to rain during construction too. When it’s down to the plywood, you’re as likely to have rain troubles as any other roof. You can lay shingles and foam for flat roofs when you’re dried in too, but no one will if it’s more than a drizzle. Tile becomes an active danger in the rain because most tiles get really slippery in the rain

Replacing broken tiles is a bitch and a half, you have to carefully dance between tile joints and one slip of your foot (which is likely during repairs because tiles are slick and can become moldy/slimy when not maintained properly) you’re likely to break another tile, leading to more work and more chances of another broken tile. Even the process of removing a broken tile can break the tiles surrounding it

Tile in general is really finicky, high maintenance, and requires unique tools, methods, and skilled laborers that are capable of doing the work. That is by no means a bad thing but it’s really easy to get a flat roof that does the job perfectly fine. Tile, not so much

Yeah but we automated the confidently incorrect idiot and every massive corporation is pushing the robo-idiot as a friend, confidant, tutor, assistant, and trustworthy source of accurate information. I’d rather have the confidently incorrect human than the lifeless simulacrum of one

What kinda coffee are you drinking?

No typo. You should see the kinds of things captain whiskers says when they’ve had a few

I am those wiwi/ el feratu

First, “make it 0!” - * Number *! As a “surprise factorial” (as seen in comments in this very thread making this exact joke) is a common joke in threads like this and that was the only connection I could make for this meme, having no previously knowledge of binary quirks.

Second, I don’t know if you were trying to be a dick or you’re just some overly wordy ass clown high on your own farts, but how on earth is me explaining what I thought a joke meant, showing why it didn’t work, and then asking for help to understand it vacuous?

But 0!=1, what am I missing here?

Check out dankpods, he does (among other things) reviews of mp3 players. A lot of modern DAPs are catered toward audiophiles so expect to pay a premium if you want something new. He still uses and recommends old iPods. You can mod them to have expanded storage and better battery life if you feel like tinkering too

If you want to support local business, you could dig through some crates at a record store. Most shops have metric shitloads of CDs on the cheap. Idk if lossless audio is a big deal to you but that’s a surefire way to get lossless files too

Unless a “battery takes a shit” update comes out around the same time your battery takes a shit

I replaced my battery in my pixel 6 late last year and I noticed my battery life took a shit recently. I thought I got a bad battery or something and was considering replacing it again

11/10 loaf right there

Are you still alive?

I found out henry kissinger died from the same meme format as the OP

I probably could’ve bought a house if I’d held onto all the btc that I spent on the silk road lol

Some berries that won’t go moldy in 2 days please
