"books that you may never have heard" is just a clickbait. Saved you a click:

Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir

Pilot X - Tom Merritt

The Life Engineered - JF Dubeau

Beacon 23 - Hugh Howey

Ageless - Paul Inman

In 2005, two scientists, David Mazières and Eddie Kohler, wrote a paper titled Get me off Your Fucking Mailing List and submitted it to WMSCI 2005 (the 9th World Multiconference on Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics), in protest of the conference's notoriety for its spamming and lax standards for paper acceptance. The paper consisted essentially only of the sentence "Get me off your fucking mailing list" repeated many times, sometimes as illustrations or diagrams.

Nice!

I don't normally do these kind of speeches, but this feels like a big moment, and if it all turns to shit, I might not see any of you again. -Lamb

Before multi channel tv and live streamings not all weekly games, if any, were on tv. I remember as a kid on game afternoonsa that you could hear the radio from many apartments all on the same station, the announcer is all excited and then the whole block cheering or crying on a goal or miss. Today you can still hear it when a national or international game is on live tv, but not the weekly league games. I'm feeling old.

Do people still listen to sports on the radio?

Is that some reference to the 1976/8 Breakout video game?

A really shitty movie with awesome 80s music. It's actually a series of music clips with bad link sections / puns.

Is there a way to disable this behaviour, marking the whole thread as unread? Better if it can be done to a given post.

A promising description:

Would you dare to request a tour?

To be fair they do tell later in the description that an investor can just use the lot to park their mobile home.
