The stars of "American Pickers" discovered a van that belonged to Aerosmith in the 1970s. (Aerosmith50years.com)
The stars of History Channel's “American Pickers” never expected to come across a hunk of rock and roll history, specifically a piece of Aerosmith’s history, while filming their hit show.
Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz of “American Pickers” were astonished to find the dilapidated van during filming in Chesterfield, a town about 100 miles west of Boston. The episode aired on July 30.
The property owner said the 1964 International Harvester Metro van was there when he bought the land from someone with a connection to Aerosmith.The reality show stars were able to get in contact with Ray Tabano, a founding member of Aerosmith, who confirmed it was the van the rockers used in the 1970s before they hit it big.
"It certainly looks like it. Oh my goodness gracious," Tabano said. "I'm afraid to say how long it is, but it's been like 40 years since we were in this thing. It was like a touring hotel... This is definitely the van. You found it."
The pickers paid $25,000 for the van Wolfe called a “piece of American rock and roll history.”
"We just got a piece of American rock and roll history," Wolfe said. "If you had the opportunity to buy one of the biggest and most iconic pieces of rock and roll history for $25,000 — hell yes you would."

Why do people sell them shit like that for so cheap? I'd imagine one of the dudes from Aerosmith would have offered a lot more. Or like, the HardRock even.
Because the picker guys are able to restore and resell stuff a lot easier than a guy who doesn't do it professionally.
I'm pretty sure the Hard Rock or Aerosmith would have bought it as is for more than 25 grand.Quote:

25 grand for a rusted out hulk is pretty fair by any measure.
Saw some clip yesterday of these British (I think) dudes that bought a tank and were stripping it down and found $2.5m worth of gold bullion inside. And like a dumbass he calls the cops to report it and they showed up and took it all.
I bet it would be a bitch trying to cash gold bars out without the IRS finding out.
That's why you melt them down and turn them into other things, like dildos.Quote:

Also if this part is true it's just begging for this type of situation to happen:
Why would you ever punish someone for doing something the safe way?Quote:
This means, in order to shut the water off for this one apartment, the entire building's water would have to be shut down. The apartment complex requires a $150 fee to be paid every 30 minutes the water is turned off.
"Hey if you want to fix a leak you'll have to shut off the building's water, but if you shut off the water you'll have to cough up some money."
That's like saying "Wearing a seatbelt can save your life in a crash, but we're going to charge you 150 bucks every time you wear a seatbelt."
Yeah, that description is a weird mess. I don't think I've ever worked on any place that was like, "can't shut the water off because I'll be paying money to do so". Just, turn a fucking valve and boom, water is off.
God it's like a cursed video. The most mind blowing thing was the vacuum though, what fucking even.
The whole building only had one shut off valve, apparently? Insane. I think that vacuum thing is a rug cleaner. They have a “suck” feature to clean up water, though they could have just used a wet vacQuote:
Originally Posted by Astray

What exactly was this guy doing, taking off entire pipes filled with water to fix a leak?Quote:

What a mess. Darn cheap Persian females.
It's fucking impossible to find buildings that don't have a valve under the sink that shuts water off. Even so, I don't even think they could fine you if the reason you shut the water off was to fix a leak. As long as you notify your tenants you're doing it, of course. I think what he did was cut into a T under the valve but fuck. The guy had a shop vac! The same kind I use! They are great for vacuuming up water. I don't understand why he thought snaking the fucking hose down the toilet was a viable solution.Quote:
Originally Posted by BriarFox

So from the look of it, the guy was trying to fix a leak, most likely at a T. It would explain why he couldn't shut the water off at a valve commonly found under the sink. The vacuum lady was probably really trying her best. Just genuinely knowing what a shit show this was going to be.Quote:

https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/28-yea...neck-1.4404875Quote:
A man in his 20s suffered a potentially life-threatening stroke after cracking his neck.
Josh Hader, 28, from Guthrie, Oklahoma tore his vertebral artery, a crucial vessel leading to the brain.
“The moment I heard the pop, everything on my left side started to go numb,” Hader told KOCO 5 News in the U.S.
“I got up and tried to get an ice pack from the fridge, and I remember I couldn't walk straight.”
Hader’s father-in-law rushed him to the emergency room at the city’s Mercy Hospital.
“He could have had a life-ending stroke. He could have died,” said Dr. Vance McCollom, a radiologist at Mercy Hospital, Oklahoma City.
“If you have a stroke in that area, you can end up with a patient who’s locked in,” McCollom said.
“They completely understand what's going on, but they can't communicate. They can't move anything. They can't speak. They can't breathe.”
Hader’s stroke did cause some damage: for the first few days he couldn’t walk without a walker, his right eye was weaker, he suffered double vision and he still has difficulty walking with his left leg.
“One of the muscles that goes to his eye is weak because the nerve was injured,” McCollom said.
The father-of-two young boys had to wear an eye patch for several weeks and he suffered another unusual side effect; painful hiccups for a week and a half.
But Hader said the most difficult part of his recovery has been emotional, not being able to help his wife with their children.
“I can't pick him (the baby) up out of the crib, give him milk in the middle of the night. I can't do any of that,” Hader said.
Hader’s treatment involves medicine and physical therapy.
Meanwhile, his physician warns others about being careful how you crack your neck.
“If you want to pop your neck, just kind of pop it side to side. Don't twist it,” McCollum said.
“Whenever you twist it there's a risk of tearing that vessel. I suspect he just turned it (his head) real sharp and up, sharp and up and back. That's what really pinched it.”
Hader will likely have lifelong consequences from the stroke, the doctor said.
“There is evidence that, in rare cases, actions related to a sharp twist or movement of the neck could lead to a dissection which could potentially cause a stroke,” Dr. Patrice Lindsay, director of systems change and stroke program at Canada’s Heart and Stroke Foundation told CTVNews.ca.
“Canadians who experience any neck pain should have it checked by their primary physician to determine the type of treatment that may be required.”
Meanwhile in England, a 23-year-old paramedic is also reported to have suffered a stroke after popping her neck.
Natalie Kunicki, who works for London Ambulance Service, ruptured her vertebral artery too, according to the Daily Mail.
She is slowly regaining her mobility, but doctors are unsure when and if she will ever fully recover.
A stroke happens when blood stops flowing to any part of the brain, damaging brain cells.
The effects of a stroke depend on the part of the brain that was damaged and the amount of damage done.

Guess I'm never cracking my neck again.
Me either. I think I'm also scared to fart now. Not because of sharts though. Just wanted to make that clear.Quote:

EDIT: Apparently everything can give you a stroke
Think I'm going to just sit still for the rest of my life now.Quote:
Other things that can lead to a tear in the carotid artery include violently coughing or sneezing, having a chiropractic adjustment to the neck, or doing any other sudden, drastic neck movement, like dancing, explains Dr. Bahr Hosseini. People who live with health conditions that can weaken the arteries and blood vessels, like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or fibromuscular dysplasia, are at higher risk. Those who smoke, have high blood pressure, or get regular migraines are also more likely to suffer a carotid artery tear.

Superman Returns is literally the only Superman movie I've watched. I know the internet's opinion on which ones are good and which are shitty, but which ones are actually worth watching? I considered watching the new (est?) one because I like Kevin Costner, but the internet had a shit fit about that one too so I didn't bother. I also nearly watched 3 because why wouldn't you watch a movie with Richard Pryor in it, but the internet and world at large also seemed to have a shit fit about that. I dunno why, but I never could really get behind Batman or Superman stuff. The nolan movies were great, but the rest have been resoundingly meh.Quote:

Superman III is ok if you don't take it too seriously. Drunk Superman is the most underrated character ever and needs his own movie. Which is actually kind of happening with that BrightBurn movie despite not being an official Superman movie. Superman III was also an inspiration for Office Space.
Superman IV is pure garbage and should be avoided at all costs other than to experience 93 minutes of cringe.
Superman Returns is newer pure garbage.
Man of Steel was good. Not perfect but still good.
Batman v Superman was good too, other than the Doomsday's identify twist which was stupid as fuck and shits all over the actual Doomsday character from the comics.
I also fell asleep for like the last 2/3 of the movie because I was tired as fuck and never went back to finish it, but I still remember liking the movie.
There will never be another Lex Luthor as good as Gene Hackman, and there will never be Clark Kent as good as Christopher Reeve's.

He's really only interesting if you're exploring the nature of his power (which I give the DC films a little credit for until they dialed it up to 11 and kept making Messiah comparisons) but they have mostly been DBZ-level spectacles of smashing buildings and lasers firing into the sky. Justice League should have had a hard cut-to-credits when Superman arrived.Quote:

I think there's two milestones that need to be achieved before this stuff reveals it's true potentials. First being a non-invasive form of connecting to a network, which really does not seem to be too difficult a goal to achieve. The second milestone will be the ability to upload, transfer and download consciousness. If they can figure that out, it changes everything about humanity.Quote:

Its always fun to look at current science and engineering progresses and attempt to determine the answer to two questions:
1) Where is it in the technological readiness spectrum (idea, formulation, shown in the lab ... all the way up to ... commercially available at low cost)?
2) what needs to be done next to make it more technologically feasible?

From what I have watched of the recent presentation, a "circuit" needs to be within a few mm of a neuron to work. That's why there needs to be internal connections. My guess this will eventually be done using injections of microchips, which is a technology that's already in existence. I don't think most people relish the idea of micro fibers running out of their skulls. A series of micron sized chips on the other hand, I would totally do it.Quote:

19 years ago this morning, I was saying goodbye to some friends and we decided to go do a quick visit to the Twin Towers before flying home. 8AM on 9-11-00, we had a picture taken on the "Top of the World Trade Center"
Found Parkbandit's pictureQuote:

Basically robot assistance for repetitive, menial tasks.Quote:

Unfortunately, many things will continue to become obsolete and "lost arts" - while those few persons still around who have the mastery in them already will benefit immensely. It's exciting and also a little bit scary to be alive in a time when the world for humanity is changing so quickly - arguably the fastest in human history.Quote:

It looks as though technology itself is going to replace almost all logistics jobs - starting in the IT industry - and especially related to software. AI has already begun replacing repetitive manual labor style jobs. Most of the highest paying jobs in the future will be be "hands on" techs working with hardware & AI - and master artists / craftsman with 20+ years of experience in their field. I'd argue that these techs are also artists / craftsmen of a kind.Quote:
