Don’t forget that they claimed hurricane helene was manufactured by the dems and sent to the states it went through for the sole purpose of killing Republicans ahead of the election.

I really wish I was making that one up…

As much as I don’t like him, he was supposedly donating starlink equipment to help with connectivity in the area. I’m sure it comes with a host of caveats and gotchas but it’s something at least

Add in that as a teacher she likely has student loans to pay on… At least until she can get through the system and get on the public service repayment option. I think they were trying to improve it but last time I tried to get on it the system was less than ideal to work with

I had one where yes everything was plugged in but… The power strips never plugged into the wall… They were just plugged into each other.

That one turned out to be an annoying bit of cable management that I wouldn’t have had to do if they would have just left things alone and let me handle the original ticket

I bought a phone mount one, it charges quite fast and it is so much easier to place my phone in the dock and have it charge. It does get quite warm but that’s easily remedied by pointing an AC vent to the back of the phone.

Honestly it sounds like you got a low wattage one and yes those do charge much slower.

My favorite fps achievement took place in Halo on the Xbox. We did the thing to play online and during an online ctf match I was on point with the sniper rifle. The match was tied up for flag captures and we were in a stalemate for a bit. The other team managed to get our flag and were running it back. As I’m in my sniper spot trying to line up the shot they all jumped at nearly the same time right into my sights. I take the shot and head shot every one of them… Except for the flag carrier because they apparently jumped just a tiny bit ahead of the others and dropped just enough to go under the bullet.

The entire lobby was going nuts over that last sniper shot. Even though we lost it was the talk of the match. The loss sucked but that shot was amazing. I quit playing for the day after that… No way was I going to top it so I left on a high.

I had one years ago… It never made a sound. It just recorded how I drove and I started getting safe driver discounts on my insurance.

Which is overkill when you can get the same result by just drilling a hole into the drive.

Cheers for the explanation. It’s come up a few times in things I’ve watched and read but I never really got a clear explanation. Just some mention about legal technicalities… And it kind of got glossed over from there.

IIRC, both Canada and Australia are still tied to the British monarchy through some technicalities in their independence.

I’m not sure why you got downvotes… You’re correct. Some of the pills do absolutely affect arousal and libido.

This is why they changed their API policy the way they did. They wanted to sell it rather than let bots scrape it for free.

IIRC, this is a big deal because they are achieving more energy out than they put in.

If I’ve been reading these correctly they are achieving it with tiny amounts of fuel and slowly working up as they achieve success. I’m seeing these as proof of concept and fantastic steps in the right direction.

I know a lot of places in GA where I can get a pack of lucky strikes for about $4…camels come out to just under $6.

Once had the flu with a fever of 106-107(almost 42c)…I was taken to the hospital and the doctor literally threw me into an ice bath… I was crying and he said “I’m sorry but you will be dead soon unless we drop that fever”

I had to continue taking ice baths at home because the fever kept creeping back up to that range. They’re not fun…

That’s me as well. I typically don’t even start thinking about shorts until the triple digits.

On the other hand… I’m starting to layer up at about 65…

I do also have a higher than normal body temperature. I’m usually hovering around 99.3 and I always have to explain to the doctor that I’m not running a fever that’s just my normal temp.

Yes, we should be worried about it now.

It will happen and it will be much better if we can figure out how to handle the masses of unemployed before it is a problem.

This attitude of kicking the can down the road is exactly how things turn catastrophic.

The VA is criminally underfunded and as a result understaffed.
