Was at a sushi restaurant where they had it playing on the TV. Some guy got in front the tv and started screaming for them to turn it off because its propaganda and obviously fake.
Like five waiters went over, laughed at him, and then watched the landing
I’m talking about people in this thread commenting like this reversal is going to cause massive fires tomorrow.
But to your point, the ban was never about safety, it was about tax collection.
So tired of government overreach smh
Actually no: there are no courses, licensing, rules, or regulations for a hobbyist (which is who this ruling affects) on the majority of the things that I listed (cars, RC/drones, canning, making kombucha, and even to a certain extent guns. We trust adults to be adults and learn the skills required to do these things because the risk is almost entirely to them.
If we had to ban everything that had a chance of causing harm to people, shouldn’t we ban gas stoves? Those could cause an explosion if someone was careless and left the gas running.
A dude distilling 5 gallons of wash in his backyard for his own personal consumption is not the same as a distillery processing 1000 gallons of wash.
This is the biggest win for homebrewers since Jimmy Carter.
Everyone in this thread talking about how people are gonna blow themselves up, but … okay? It’s up to the individual to make sure that they’re being safe and following adequate procedures. It’s not like working on cars, RC/drones (lithium batteries), flying planes, and guns are all perfectly safe hobbies, and those are all very normalized.
In terms of safety surrounding unwanted product, like methanol, it’s again the person’s responsibility. Much like how it’s up to the canner to make sure they’re not giving people botulism or a kombucha to have only the wanted bacteria.
I’m pretty sure you can do this regardless, the ban was for distilling spirits. Water distillers are like $70 on Amazon
Like I feel your point, but also the ads definitely have a lot more identifiable information (target audience, keywords, sectors, etc.) they can use for detection & removal vs random posts using algospeak and other evasion tactics
Yes but also no. I agree that steam is only looking out for its own bottom line
However, they definitely do not fall into the “every action is done to keep profits up” since they’re private they’re not legally required to stay on the ~shareholder value~ train
Hence why they invested all that money into proton and then open sourced it 🤷 any company that makes meaningful investments in open source is good in my book
It’s Sabrina Carpenter, so either the picture was staged for something specific or she already had her makeup done a while ago and is brushing her teeth for another reason (maybe finishing lunch?) and is gonna go back for touch-ups
bbno$ is a rapper (arguably used to be a meme rapper) who’s made a ton of songs that blew up on TikTok. You’ve probably heard some of his songs without knowing it just because of how pervasive tiktok music is in society
I’m not gonna lie, i have no idea who that is but i also chose 9 for bbno$ 💀
completely ignore definitions 1a -> 1c
🤔
What a weird, and incorrect, statement to make
Other commenters have pointed out the terms actual origins, but on modern devices it got started as a term that was used way back on the original iPhones/devices

You are a legend for this, thank you so much!
:| i hope i can switch without losing everything??
Wait this vs tuwunel? I switched to tuwunel because i thought that was the official successor
For me important stuff gets the real email address and the secondary/beyond gets the aliases
TY for making my point for me, it was really nice of you. Legalization is what allows those manufactured safeguards to exist. Without legalization, there is no way a company is going to sell a still that meets a UL safety metric. Which in turn causes anyone who wants to do this to use a cobbled together rig that’s probably leaking fuel or gases.
And lots of things that are dangerous are not banned or restricted, and are in fact extremely normalized. I could go buy fireworks in a tent on the side of the road, without needing to provide my age or any sort of training – and fireworks are VASTLY more dangerous than distilling.
Again, this is a product of prohibition and not having access to safe equipment or information. The cost/barriers to entry for home distilling are also very high. There is a minimum amount of research that you would need to do in order to understand what the procedure is and what equipment you would even need.
Finally, I will once again state that the dangers of home distilling are extremely overblown. When New Zealand legalized home distilling there were zero reports of methanol poisoning from home-distillation, caused 0.14% of residential fires, and 0 deaths. 1 2 3.
Someone is literally more likely to have a fire and/or die from an unattended candle.
