I assume the big boys lost more money from the tariff insanity than they made from getting their next tax cut. Losing money is the only thing they do not tolerate because it hurts them in their inhouse pissing contest on who can be the biggest societal parasite.
Yeah, you're right. It's stupid to hold onto them because they are already paid for. Maybe I'll treat myself to a new RaspPi (mine is old as time, still model 2B)
In case you are wondering, the reason why the ATC made the planes perform a go-around is likely not to avoid mid-air collision, but because it is very dangerous to attempt a landing after a helicopter left or landed due to wake turbulence. Essentially, the rotor rotation of the helicopter creates an invisible disturbance in the air that lingers for quite a while and can cause the trailing plane to bank uncontrollably. IIRC the FAA standard calls for 2 minutes to pass to allow the wake turbulence to dissipate.
Here is a video that demonstrates what can happen:
They fear a decrease of revenue in the US market and thus raise prices across the board for everyone else. Number must go up, that's capitalism for you: a giant game of real-life cookie clicker. It has nothing to do with appeasing US customers, those companies don't care about their customers.
Yeah, that stems from the original sense of the word. The story goes a bit like this:
In Genesis 19, Sodom is visited by 2 angels and they were pressured by the men of Sodom to have sex with them. This lead to the interpretation of homosexual activities being an original sin, but there are accounts in the bible that it was not meant that way. Mainly Ezekiel 16:49 which reads
Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
So, the sexual advances were likely meant to serve as an example of decadence rather than a stipulation that homosexual activities are sins. But it was simply easier to hate on a marginalized group rather than undergoing the onerous task of actually becoming a better human being.
It means raped or sexually abused nowadays. The biblical term of sodomy encompasses all forms of sexual behavior that would go against the word of the Lord and would thus be immoral, even consensual homosexual activities, but nobody uses it like that anymore.
That is a problem the Zionists introduced tho. By labeling every small criticism against their oppressive and genocidal agenda as "antisemitism", it blurred the lines and the idiot conspiracy theorists on Twitter get roped into the same crowd as someone asking Israel to stop their genocide.
Usually, you don't need a booster once you got fully vaccinated (2 shots, usually combined with mumps and rubella vaccines). However, the second shot was not the recommended practice until around the 90s, so you might have received only one and then it's a good idea to get it checked.
