People need to stop glorifying those who ignore evacuation orders and get lucky. For all those you hear about getting lucky there’s a bunch that cause issues, get in the way, and take resources away from fighting the fires.

Sure, but we aren’t quite at Cuban missile crisis levels of heat either.

I’m soooo sorry I didn’t specify that it would need to be invoked against a significant nation-state and that a concept like terrorism doesn’t count. I understand that could be very confusing otherwise.

It’s just the second cold war. You’ll know WW3 started when NATO invokes Article 5. Until then, it’s all just proxies.

In the first cold war there were proxy wars in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, etc. Now it’s Ukraine and Israel/Syria/Lebanon.

I’ve ridden Amtrak but I’ve also seen videos about how Via Rail is basically unusable. Amtrak has improved significantly in the past decade as well, while Via seemingly regressed (again, Via info is based on other people’s experiences, not mine).

Hooooboy is Via Rail going to impress you with how terrible it can be.

You better get out those tissues. They’re already starting https://www.lg.com/us/smart-monitors

Sony. I got last year’s open box for close to 1k. It runs Android so I have a ad free launcher called Projectivy and can sideload apps as well.

My brain absolutely refused to read

See, that’s the problem for drag, because if drag uses first person verbs then drag will sound silly but if drag uses third person verbs then drag will sound like drag is talking in third person, which will also sound silly.

There’s a ton of reasons that an operator would not want to rely on reverse kinematics. They are a professional who needs to make sure they don’t slam a big machine arm into something. While reverse kinematic control is nice as a user, it has multiple possible solutions, some of which may not be acceptable.

How do you think you get to the point of being chosen as CEO of a Fortune 500 company?

100% anything you can do is great.

My girlfriend and I have each been putting $50/month into an investment account instead of paying for insurance for our dog, that way if she ever needs a big procedure I can pull money from there if I don’t have the savings for it. We’ve been doing this for 3.5 years and have now built up a good amount! I’ll divide the numbers roughly in 2 so you can see what you could be looking at:

Total $2750.
Deposits $2200.
Gains $550.

What the fuck

Their only solution is wait until enough people become leftists to have a successful revolution. They’ll say it with a straight face like it’s a realistic near-term plan.

No you do both. Voting is the hedge if the “tear down the system” plan doesn’t work. It hasn’t worked here for 250+ years and a civil war, but it is because of voting and labor action and protests we have made any progress.

Fuck you very much for making me read that.

I used to work down the street from another building that had a small cafeteria, but on Fridays the chef would set up a big grill outside and cook up sausages, hot dogs, burgers, chicken, and grilled veggies. It was just like going to a backyard BBQ. Those were some good Friday lunches when we made it over there.
