I don't think we will be losing optical disks ever.

If burned properly they hold storage for a very long time without data loss. IIRC Facebook burns optical disks for old photographs and instead of having a hard drive array or tape library they had a RAID based optical disk system.

Optical disks are great, but not for the daily user since most media content is online and most storage is judged on being rewritable.

One of us put a friend's dead cell phone in a VHS player and we looked for it for 8 days.

This was well into the time of Blu-Ray and DVD players.

I first change my information then delete it. So IE say my name is Don Brown. I change it to Jack Thorton, wait a few days and then delete.

Oh gosh I ordered them. My mother who is well past retirement age asked for some to take to her job as a teacher's assistant. No one would suspect her.

Foraging! Don't eat things unless you are 100% sure.

Dog poop in my car. The owner insisted it was not a big deal. I told them zero poop is allowed in my car and made them clean the seat.

That's what my friend said too. I work in the tech industry, but gosh do I find it creepy more and more. And if you talk about it being pervasive, you get called paranoid.

I forgot about the impact on the trout population memes and I wish for them to make a more aggressive comeback than the trout population.

This is not a conversation about guns. This is a conversation about items that have withstood abuse that are near unbreakable.

Some items I have heard referenced as AK47 of:

Gerber MP600: It's a multi tool

Old Thinkpad Laptops

Mag lights

Toyota Hilux

My one friend and I have been leaving odd gifts on my friend's car with notes like "I think this fell out of your car" nothing of value. Nothing that can damage the vehicle.

I never asked for a credit score. I don't use credit. They have made it very clear breach sfter breach that I don't want them to have my data. How do I remove myself from credit data agencies?

The Mountain Dew is the 2005 logo. Which may be the most concerning part of this. Does he reuse bottles, or possibly have a leftover stash provided for him?

Quick edit. I had no idea pod casts were so popular. Thank you all for posting. I have a lot of content to check out.

That's adorable. I'm that way. I feel my house is a mess because I have an AC and some cat toys around. My friend insisted it's not messy. I go to a friend's house, 20 inches deep of garbage.

Wow. That is really sad.
