Space Gopher posted:I felt like this had to be bullshit, so I did some digging. Cousin of mine did that when he was working on trail crew stuff for USFS. He mentioned a horse that had died mid trail way up in the mountains, and they were called in to clear it before it attracted bears. There is only a rough guess on explosives to use, so the lead had them use a lot. They basically atomized this horse from what he said. Or it ended up being sent into orbit.

They just renamed a nearby park "Exploding Whale Park." Long-term, that exploding whale got them a lot of attention, and renaming the park got them writeups in a bunch of national papers (including the New York Times). Long-term GWM.

Something happened here. I don't know what. https://goo.gl/maps/Frw5DbgFzh26Zs5L7 Side note: I was at this beach one time when a woman was setting something up and yelling into her phone, apparently it was very stressful. Turned out to be a wedding for dogs. They say people who live in Salem, MA are weird.. I'm inclined to agree. Moneyball fucked around with this message at 22:19 on Jul 14, 2020 |

If anyone wants to come to Oregon, please remember that half the population won't wear a mask and we are full already and it rains all the ti.e. sometimes it rains rancid whale meat too. And if you want to know how effective our government is, well *gestures to rotting pieces of whale*

Why yes, it makes perfect sense to rent a car at $38/day* for my daily commute so I don't have to drive the car I'm already paying for. *not including tax, rental car tax supplement, facility fee, we-bullied-you-into-insurance fee, fee administration fee

I rented out of Denver and love tapped a car during a snow storm that popped in one of the lower fog lights. I somehow got out of that damage assessment by arguing that when we got the car it was night time and there was no way I'd have known the light was pushed in. A+ would rent from Sixt again. Also lol driving in all seasons trying to go to the mountains to ski.

Sometimes, I partially understand why our comptroller is crazy. She's currently upset because someone submitted a request to purchase a bunch of "Diffusers" and essential oil cartridges for "COVID-19 Prevention" and "Public Safety." When you're dealing with hundreds of requests per day, even if only 1% of them are really stupid, then you still have to explain your denial reasons for dozens of stupid requests per week.

The one positive of Uber/Lyft is that they will hopefully rid us of rental car bullshit.Hermaphrodite posted:At my last job there was a temp who said she was renting a car for the commute because she didn't trust her own car to make the trip (20 miles.) She was making $10/hr. I had this experience once, sort of. My car broke down unexpectedly in the morning, so my father brought me to the closes car rental place after it was towed. They told me it was going to cost $80 to rent it for one day because I was 24. I told them that after taxes I did not made that much money in one day of work so if that was the price, I would just call out of work and save myself the annoyance. So they said they'd rent it to my father instead for $40. I should have just told them to fly a kite, but I was a good little office drone.

If it makes you feel any better, one time I paid for a Jeep Wrangler rental from Sixt and instead they gave me an BMW X5. Which we took deep into the Utah wildlands and did things no other X5 has done. When we returned it it was so dirty that the disinterested teenager who inspected didn’t catch any of the scratches. A week later Sixt sent me some passive aggressive emails asking about the damage and I denied everything and never heard from them again.

https://techcrunch.com/2020/07/15/twitter-accounts-hacked-crypto-scam/ Over 200 people on twitter just got scammed out of bitcoin because they thought they'd get $2000 back if they sent some to Bill Gates, Elon Musk and a bunch of other people. https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/bc1qxy2kgdygjrsqtzq2n0yrf2493p83kkfjhx0wlh is the wallet address people are sending money to right now. edit: this is still ongoing, Uber and a few other twitter accounts just tweeted the same wallet.

Per NBC's link apparently bitcoin transactions per wallet are public on this website, which shows transactions to that wallet...? https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/bc1qxy2kgdygjrsqtzq2n0yrf2493p83kkfjhx0wlh?page=1 Value of the wallet seems to be around $90K USD but it's rapidly pushing funds to other accounts.
