1. Does that price include a whole new roof, or perhaps an EV? The $/w quoted there is to put it delicately and diplomatically, a firm rogering.

  2. It's KILLING him to arrive at the courthouse everyday only to see no more than a couple dozen whack jobs waving Trump flags.

  3. Need to get a bunch of people out there booing him. Every day. Make sure that's all he hears and knows is that people hate him.

  4. Classic - "Russian state TV host described Greene as “a real beauty. She is a blond who wears white coats with a fur collar. She’s demonstrably heterosexual.” 

  5. My interpretation is that demonstrably is some kind of adjective form portmanteau of demon+monster.

  6. The uwu stuff I'd argue is a matter of life imitating art, where they played the games and then acted out the modeled behavior.

  7. I needed 100' feet for a pair of front field effect speakers. Amazon had solid copper spools for $38 which happened to be 14 AWG. 12 was $55. Sure it's a one time purchase for something that's going in the walls and running the first time sucked, but the chart says 14 is ok and I'd rather not donate $17 to Amazon so I bought the 14. It's that simple.

  8. Russian sources are saying that Ukraine is dropping caltrops on roads to damage their vehicles' wheels. When the vehicles stop, they are then targeted by artillery or FPVs.

  9. The region isn't really capable of anything else.

  10. That's kind of the problem, they won't accept democratic self-rule only a brutal dictator or absolute monarch. Without that it just breaks apart back into tribal warfare. There's no peace to be won, just leave them alone and let them go back to tearing each other apart.

  11. Michael Popok with Meidas Touch Network. He’s great. I like the Legal AF podcast they do.

  12. He's my favorite of the MTN crew and he puts in the flourishes and subtle humor that makes him engaging to listen to. Ben is quite dry to the level of reading the news for the BBC but by himself he's hard to make it through. At least he perks up a good bit when he's with Michael Cohen, but I largely credit that to Cohen.

  13. Some people commando charge at some golf cart plugs at Grand Floridian, and there are plenty of unguarded outlets by the air conditioners at Old Key West. But yeah... that's it. Disney has effectively jack shit for charging at their resorts yet if you fire up Plugshare for the Kissimmee/Orlando area and it's pretty nuts how much is out there. Just Superchargers alone is really dense, but just about every other hotel has L2 aplenty. If you're staying in the area you should have no problem so long as you're not staying at a Disney hotel.

  14. I wish GSG would enter the space that DIYSG was (is?) in. I don't know what's going on with them, but they filled a need that's not brand met.

  15. I have no idea how there isn't an Olga of Kiev histo-drama on Netflix yet. Ultra bad-ass female protagonist with lots of revenge where they get medieval on the obvious bad guys. How could it possibly miss?

  16. I've only ever seen SFP modules that take LC. Get an SC to LC adapter, they're a thing. I'm guessing this is a simplex (single) strand and not duplex? If so you'll need a "bidi" pair of SFP transceivers. These are touchy about interoperability so they're kinda sold in pairs anyway. Hit up Amazon for "bidi SFP 10g" and you should be good to go if that's what you need. If not then a regular 10g SFP should do the trick.

  17. I used to work as a "management" employee at a big corp with a lot of union labor. When they went out in strike I made damn sure to do what I could to help because I knew exactly where my benefits package and OT rates came from. I didn't have a choice on being there but I sure had a choice on how good and fast of a job I could do.

  18. Unions help set the market rate for labor because union labor gets paid more which pushes everybody's wages up. It's like how raising the minimum wage still raises the wages of the guy making three times the minimum wage. It's how markets work.

  19. Dude got his shoe blown off, you know he’s a goner after that.

  20. have to put it in rain mode or snow mode or sun mode or hail mode or…. better watch out putting it in hail mode while it’s raining

  21. We have a Tesla, some friends have a Bolt. We've got them with location sharing on Google Maps so when they go on trips we can see where they are and more or less on constant chat with them anyway.

  22. He can’t flee to Russia. The logistics doesn’t work out. Trumps 757 can only go about 4k miles, which, from Miami will just barely get him to Juneau, Alaska before needing to be refueled. He can’t travel East across the Atlantic because of said distance as he would have to stop at Lisbon, Portugal at the least. Refueling takes time (and money) and typically is planned ahead of time. Everything I’ve seen has a refueling time of 35mins. If you think any of our allies will let Trump land and take off, you are sadly mistaken. If you think any of our hostile nation states will do the same, you are also sadly mistaken. For the hostile nations, it’s a god send. “Hey, America, we have the first former President to be convicted in your courts that is fleeing, here are our terms if you want him back.” The allies will not want a degradation of relations, and could even possibly get some extra concessions on the side.

  23. Let's be perfectly honest, if he was straight up fleeing then he'd get intercepted before had a chance to land anywhere.

  24. Considering the politics in EU and USA it's very, very important to have factories not in the EU or USA.

  25. Considering the politics in EU and USA it's also very, very important to have factories that are in the EU and USA too.

  26. No problem. I've always thought it was interesting how they treat the Nile and Africa's north coast as their personal holiday resort, while breeding as far north as sibiria and Finland. Goofy looking burds.

  27. In Florida our Sandhill cranes are here all the time walking around in pairs or depending on the season, such as now, starting to show up in pairs with a juvenile or two behind them. A little over a month ago there was one that was perched on top of our neighbor's house squawking all night long trying to prove he's the man of some girl's dreams. All... fucking... night... for a couple weeks.

  28. Even if it's riddled with inaccuracies that I don't know, this response makes me feel warm and fuzzy.

  29. Any topic that's been endlessly discussed in forums is going to be pretty well summarized and distilled into a consensus opinion by these things. Think of them as a search engine for crowd-sourced knowledge, and just as with any other search engine the right query can lead you towards a higher probability of finding what you think you're looking for. Please make a special note of the various percentages multiplied together in that statement and what happens when you multiply a bunch of sub-100 percentages.

  30. I always wondered what you did after that. Install the spare warp coil? Call for help while you sit dead in space?

  31. I asked Google Gemini and it thinks they don't have spares, and just have to wait for a rescue.

  32. And this is why I wonder why people go batshit why we (US) send so much shit there. They (Israel) make it happen over there in the Middle East, fighting the good fight. We send a lot, maybe too much, though you can’t argue we wouldn’t be after the same targets, and they promote democracy (yikes re:current leadership) in the region. It’s a cost-benefit.

  33. I'd rather we abandon the region as soon as possible and let them go back to murdering each other in tribal warfare as they have for millennia. The sooner the US economy is using a ton less oil, the better, and for a vast bevy of reasons. You know how Europe's industry was dying from soaring gas prices while in the US the price moved nary a blip? That's what we need for oil too. And we can get there.

  34. Sure, I'm not saying Israel didn't make the right choice from a cost-benefit analysis. I'm only saying that the cost/production disparity between defending and attacking is high enough that a technologically inferior attacker has a chance of success without prohibitively high spending. Iran's GDP is about 75% of Israel's (though Israel's per capita PPP is 3.4x that of Iran's), so theoretically Iran is capable of allocating enough money and labor to the manufacture of dumb munitions in an amount sufficient to overwhelm Israeli defenses.

  35. Meanwhile Iran's cost/benefit analysis should be saying that if they did anything even slightly more than what they did then their own damage costs would rise sharply. Yes, Iran can allocate more money towards making cheap munitions, but that manufacturing is happening in buildings that explode when exploded. Iran could turn to near artisanal crafting with a dispersed plant but at some point Iran would store a few close to each other at some distribution point. Or IDF could identify key figures to eliminate or logistics choke points and make them craters.

  36. Let's not act like the GOP suddenly has a moderate group willing to buck Trump.  This benefitted GOP Congressmen politically, both at the polls and with their donors.  They will now resume slobbering Trump's knob.

  37. No, not is important that it did happen and it's generally a good thing if it does benefit those Republicans who voted for it. Now we'll see if the motion to vacate occurs. I hope it does and I hope the Democrats step in to save Johnson. It will reward bipartisanship, bury the MAGA arm into irrelevance, and it will show that Johnson needs the continuing support of at least some Democrats to stay in his position. That will help continue bipartisanship and curtail the extreme elements. Don't get me wrong, he'll still have the gravel and control what bills hit the floor, but it's not like the Democrats could actually put Jefferies in charge. Even if they did it would be pure chaos.

  38. There is value in being about to point to the charred husk of McCarthy's political career. Also he's a known Russian stooge. We also do not know what they know so we'll have to put our faith in Jeffries. Gosh, he does seem quite qualified.
