The problem is to not just that. Up here in New England we have no coal, no nuclear, insufficient gas pipelines, and taco Don Quixote keeps tilting at our windmills

My dishwasher uses high speed jets of 160° water to scour and sanitize.

Look at OP, claiming to have that mythical girlfriend who will make a sandwich without escalating privileges

Weekly? Every couple weeks? So you’re good standing in pee for a couple weeks, or you expect no one else to take a shower for a couple weeks?

Sure, you can be the first streamer targeting them. Your viewer count might be a little low ……

Sure it all leaves through the same pipe, but it’s not like you stand in the toilet, no one ever lays down and soaks in the toilet, most of us don’t put children in the toilet.

their economic model is better than the West’s.

Policy. Their economic policy is better. Their government has some far-reaching strategies, creates comprehensive policies to develop them, and maintains those policies consistently across many years. They effectively guide competition and long term vision into their market, just like any competent government ought to do

That’s also the biggest place we’re failing. Lack of vision, lack of strategy, no consistency. Even worse when your administration enriches themselves, plays favorites, outright takes bribes, holds themselves above the law, rules out of spite and personal feelings, focuses only on short term

You know what I notice? How little hardware I can get something to run on.

Every OP is exotic to someone. Yah gotta choose your audience

Last time they said something like this to me, I pointed out that I had WiFi disabled other piece of crap router.

I knew what he meant but had no problem being literal. Tech stuff s definitely an area where details matter

what has been called potentially the largest agency data breach for the department

Have we already forgotten DOGE?

Suntan, believe it or not, were mist responsive but they also earned their scamminess reputation. I would never do business with them but they solicited through my neighborhood while I was getting quotes so I said fine. They wouldn’t stop trying to sell me PPAs though, even after I made clear I was only interested in direct purchase , and of course never named what they were or gave actual facts about them

I’ve seen rich people grow fearful as their physical abilities fade. From as little as not trusting walking on ice to not trusting walking after dark to unsteady driving to staying inside a locked door more. Perhaps that makes them more susceptible to the scare talk, the scapegoating, blaming “others”

I read it as the judge thinking they have a good case so hand over most of it to keep them operating, then see how the case plays out

Maybe I’m continuing to be naively optimistic, but it’s hard to see military brass agreeing to attack nato troops

So we’re assuming someone who makes $89M is

• getting all her income through onlyfans
• is not incorporated
• has no deductible business expenses

I get some of these simplifications for the sale of discussion but the federal corporate income tax rate is 21% (yes, at least half of us are subsidizing corporations)

You’d expect her to being paid some salary as an employee of her corporation, and depending how the wrote it, it’s possible only that would be subject to sin tax, and it’s relatively insignificant

Oooooh, maybe I should make quesadillas

My youngest loves them. My older kid can’t eat them because he recently had wisdom teeth removed but we have leftover soup or mac&cheese

Pasta. Probably tortellini, but I have several options. In pesto because that’s my favorite, plus I don’t have any marinara or similar. My youngest would vote or a lemon-butter-garlic instead. I usually throw in bell peppers and spinach

It’ll likely be short on protein but my oldest had wisdom teeth removed last week so I’m sticking with softer foods

Nice. I’m a bit jealous.

I finally saved up a bit to install solar (without a loan, PPA, or lease), but my older house has too much shade and companies were too scammy.

• all the quotes would only install enough to cover half my usage and most never replied when I tried asking questions
• I swear solar salesmen are the new used car salesmen, I just felt so dirty and used every time I had to deal with them. I never did find an installation company that I thought was being honest
• then I just ran out of patience and eventually the incentives expired
