I would think it would be good indefinitely as long as it isn't exposed to the air.

I always found it odd that moths will eat wool, but don't eat sheep.
Is there something done during the processing of the wool (like washing or coloring) that makes the wool after being removed from the sheep more favorable for moths to eat, or do sheep emit some hormone that repulses moths and if so, why don't we just harness that power?

My random thought for today:
Why did you pick JD Vance as your VP President Trump?
His wife’s body language was HORRIBLE. People are already making TikTok videos saying Blink twice if you need help girl and laughing!
Very disappointed ☹️
I Absolutely love President Trump but Mrs Vance left me with a bad taste in my mouth.

Update: I read somewhere that two woman took a photo op with JD Vance and dissed his wife and that’s why she had that pissed off look.
If true, I still think she should have stayed unscathed by it and not let her emotions get the better of her, eye rolling and clearly upset, on such an important night. She did great last night.
JD Vance does seem like a great guy, and I trust President Trumps pick.
Of course I’m naturally suspicious after these last 3-1/2 years.
I know one thing, this country cannot take another 4 more years of Democratic policies without collapsing!

I tend not to trust the "imagery." I have seen too often a picture, or clip with an accompanying narrative that is actually a skewed representation.
It's too easy to create errant memes... just too easy.

Tried uploading an animated image with some weird new Google file extension using Imgur and it didn't work, but the new upload link here worked nicely – very contemporary!!

...and your ordinary run-of-the-mill mini-Dixie-type paper cup, just a few cents, but within any number of typical American hospitals, priceless.

I can't seem to wrap my head around Ukraine invading Russia.

The thread title itself sums it up pretty well. Any thoughts or incomplete ideas to be quickly jotted down that may not be ripe, ready, or evidently suitable at a glance for any other topic/subtopic.
It's fairly informal, and I've seen users on other forums make moderate use of such threads e.g. based on experience, I've been thinking about posting the pros and cons of buying cheap tires in my automotive thread.
Also, there was a recent proposal rejected a couple years ago that came up again that would prevent the general public from working on their own vehicles, and it was voted down again. I'd be interested to know the reasoning behind these proposals; of course I have ideas.
As we progress technically it appears that those in the "money" want to take all else away from the ones who buy things. Just look at setting up a Home Theater today. We dumped DIRECT TV for a ROKU stick and signed on for YouTube TV, Netflix and HULU with commercials and have more channels than we know what to do with. All that for $111 a month. ROKU @ $0, Netflix @ $17, YouTube @ $89, Hulu @ $7. Just keeping all up as we have monthly WIFI outages requires me to be an AV specialist as we have two Smart TV's and the primary no Smart TV has the ROKU stick in it.
So how about those Smart Refrigerators, Door locks and more. I stay away not because I am an OLD FART its because lt can be hacked and / or breached.
Our new used home came with a Samsung $3000+ refrigerator. Yep, the one where the WIFI listens to you. Yep, the one where the ice maker has not been engineered correctly so the Samsung OEM water filter froze and cracked and flooded the home. We had Best Buy take the fridge away and bought a Whirlpool with NO WIFI. To date at 3+ years NO issues.
Anything electronic is beyond 99% of the population to fix outside of a Hard Drive or a component. Then we have cars. Thinking ahead we will have Lithium Batteries that can explode along with refrigerant in the AC that can leak into the environment. Today a car is comprised of electronic modules. Back when I was with General Motors Powertrain the modules that controlled the engine could generate unlimited horsepower. So much that we could blow up the rear end as it couldn't take the torque. That's almost 20 years ago so I get what they have today.
Hmm so take a look in WIFI Jammers. The choice of Drug Dealers. They could either be in your neighborhood or coming to a neighborhood near you. May explain WIFI outages stuff?
