And youtube tried to ban adblockers….
Apt comparison. If anybody has any ways to get around YouTube ads on a Roku, I’d love to hear them lol. My pi hole can’t handle it since they come from the same domain as the video.
I’ve been considering just patching a spare laptop to my TV and just streaming it that way. There are remote control devices and controllers you can attach to laptops.
I’ve connect my old android phone full of pirated streaming software to the tv, works a charm. You can even cast it and use the phone as a remote.

I take no cows but Azamat Bagatov looks very suspicious.
And now there are hundreds of people breeding cobras…
Dare I ask?
Cobra effect:
Cobras all over India, so government is like 'bring dead cobra, I gief moni". People are smart and breed cobras in their barn to collect more bounties. Government is like “you cheated, no fair. no more moni for cobra head”. People release all bred cobras into the wild. Result: even more cobras in India.
Tax the rat farms
His family got rich of the vodka since they basically had the monopoly on the vodka trade, they earned a shit ton of money of Russian state liquor. And by keeping the populace in a constant drunk state it made sure they stayed in power. Kinda ironic that his alcohol ban probably started political unrest and eventually the fall of the empire.

It’s a good thing we don’t do that anymore.
Sarcasm, I’m being sarcastic everyone

But even after the fall the ban was kept in place.
I melted my plastic shower curtains in the dryer.
What’s worse?
You both have a lot to think about
How… did they even end up anywhere near the laundry machines in the first place?
I though it was fine.
It wasn’t…
Was this your biggest mistake? Or…?
Legend has it they put their cat in the washing machine :(
I tried to power a PS3 controller with raw power from a cut outlet cord to USB.
A pop was heard.
What other big ideas have you had 😏
I powered a PS5 controller with a US outlet cord joined to USB.
You could hear a loud pop.
Most plastic doesn’t melt below the boiling point of water. It’s not intuitive that a dryer can get a lot hotter than that.
Only babies who don’t even know what vodka is would make his mistake.
Why isn’t it intuitive that a device designed to evaporate water quickly gets hotter than the boiling point of water
Because it is intuitive that water doesn’t need to hit boiling point to dry off.
But when it doesn’t it takes a long ass time to dry, else we’d just line fry instead
Yes, but you seem to be forgetting that we’re talking about the difference between room temperature and melting plastic. That’s hundreds of degrees F. Even twenty degrees makes a substantial difference for drying water.
It’s fully within reason to expect a dryer to be less hot than melting plastic unless it’s a gas dryer. Even then, many clothes are literally made of plastic. Nylon? Radon? Plastic. It’s totally reasonable to expect a dryer to not melt typical kinds of clothes. (though at least nylon’s melting point is significantly higher than some other kinds of plastic)
And you’re forgetting that water needs huge amounts of heat to evaporate. The heat capacity of plastic is rather small in comparison, so a machine capable of quickly vaporizing water also has the power to melt crappy thin plastic.
Modern dryers usually have a safety thermostat, but lint buildup is still a big fire hazard, so there are obviously temperatures in significant excess of boiling here.

Wait, I understand cleaning your shower curtains but why would you even bother to dry them?
There was a president who tried to ban bikinis in Brazil
and this is why we’ll never be able to ban guns in America
Yeah, vodka has such a long and rich history of good deeds in Russia. What a fool this fella is
Well, he was inbred so it’s almost understandable
It’s not like Prince Philip tried to ban tea in England. He was probably as inbred as they come and all he did was say a bunch of racist shit and then take a couple steps out of the limelight while gradually becoming half vampire half zombie
Not exactly a role model, but still…
Ok that broken wrench wine glass one is super clever
Wasn’t it Lenin who banned vodka, then Stalin started a state run vodka company after he took over? Or did Lenin just reinforce the ban?
the royal family owned all the vodka companies/manufacturing before the revolution. it’s always been a tool to fill state coffers
Tsar Nicholas ordered prohibition in 1914. RSFSR retained it after revolution until it was abolished in 1925.
Could you imagine the power of a sober Russia? It would be amazing. I once hung out with some Russians on the Chinese border, I had to quit drinking after a third of a fifth. They had 2 each, maybe more, was hard to function on that much vodka.
I drank with Russians in Korea. The beer bottles and vodka bottles were the same size, say 300 or 350ml.
I drank beer. They drank vodka.
For every bottle of beer I drank, they each drank a bottle of vodka.
They drank me under the table.
They did have that delightful yellow skin tone.
In Siberia they actually traditionally dried fly agaric (amanita muscaria) mushrooms. Flying reindeers are a thing, they always ate the mushrooms and got high af, but without any headaches the next day.
Vodka replaced the mushrooms, as its easy to store I guess. It was sold to them.
Flying reindeers are a thing
I’m sorry… What?
The santa claus story is veeery random. Like flying reindeers just like that, a dude in red-white clothes, a pine tree with red balls on it.
People dried fly agaric mushrooms on pine trees, they are red. Sibirian shamans dressed like a fly agaric mushroom and went from house to house to gift them to people and make them less depressed, because they are said to help with that
Its pretty funny and makes a lot of sense
Mushrooms -> magical woodland animals -> mythology
Where’s the confusion?

That’s like trying to prohibit alcohol in the United States
Which Tsar is this?
The last one
I wonder why 🤔
Because there were none after him /j
Nicholas II
