Not sure whether to denounce that mob, or wish them better luck next time.

This would basically mean that the brake light would stay on almost all the time that you weren’t actively accelerating.

As I understand the idea of “single pedal operation”, taking your foot off the accelerator pedal initiates regenerative braking. If your foot is not on the accelerator, you are braking, and the brake lights should be illuminated. But the brake lights are normally controlled by the brake pedal. You are braking without touching that brake pedal; the lights will not come on.

OP is trying to solve that.

Germany managed to make butter out of coal during WWII.

He then took his own life, with the gun that had precisely 1 bullet in it.

He had several guns, with many more than “precisely one bullet.” He fired 15 rounds at tanks in a propane storage yard containing 30,000 gallons of propane, as well as several electrical transformers.

“AR” refers to a pattern of rifle. Any manufacturer can produce complete rifles or various components and accessories that fit the AR pattern. Those components are interchangeable. This allows you to customize your rifle to your current and future needs simply by swapping parts, rather than needing a gunsmith to machine and fit them.

“AR” is to guns like “Pickup truck” is to cars. A pickup might be a simple, ordinary vehicle. It might be a heavily customized rock crawler. It might be a lowered and styled cruiser. It might have a ladder rack, or have the bed swapped for a maintenance truck, or flatbed. It might be converted to repossess vehicles, or fight brush fires. Likewise, an “AR pattern rifle” refers only to the most basic structure of the rifle rather than a specific gun.

I think I saw a documentary about that on Elon’s new video site, Xvideos.com.

Agreed.

Hopefully, we can get public support for better marksmanship training.

Mawp.

As a matter of fact, we are talking about Trump. Any halfway decent 45-57 year old candidate will easily show Trump’s advanced age and cognitive decline. But we don’t get to run that race, because our candidate sounds like Grandpa did, the year before we put him in a nursing home.

I want to retire. I am sick of this country being run by workaholics. I want it to be run by people planning on not working themselves into the fucking grave, and expecting the rest of us to do so as well.

57 years is the oldest a candidate should be for a first-term presidency. 61 for a second term. If they still want to play politics, they can take a position in their local HOA.

We the voters are the only remaining barrier that can stop it,

Trump himself thinks there is a second option for dealing with a problematic presidential candidate.

Then that someone can kill me.

It would be a much better world with a bounty on the head of anyone worth more than a billion dollars. Pay your employees more, charge your customers less, divest your ownership interests. Buy more products and services from the market, rather than lending to it.

I’ve warrantied two fridges in their first year for failed VFDs. So, yes, I’ll say that quite a few don’t last a year. And I’d wager most of those 1940’s fridges were still working when they were discarded, just obsolete in 1950’s kitchens.

Thousands of refrigerators bought in 2022 are already in landfills.

Notepad was getting usage, even if Word was installed, specifically because Notepad doesn’t have all the bullshit needed for a word processor. It is a text editor. It is for editing text files. Text files that probably contain machine-readable program configuration data with arguments that are now going to be flagged by spellcheck, and probably changed by autocorrect from the term the program is expecting to something that it can’t understand.

The people who use notepad need it to not have these “features”. These “features” make wordpad less useful for the people who use it.

It’s a standalone “smart”.

If your old TV or computer monitor lacks a “smart”, a Roku stick is one of the cheaper ways to acquire it.

30%? You’re overestimating the lifetime of modern appliances.

The refrigerator my grandfather bought in the 1940s has outlived 7 others purchased later, and the old man himself. It’s still chugging along in the basement of their house, 80-some years after it was built.

Challenging a stereotype is going to earn the “woke” label, so there isn’t a simple numerical answer. An all-black cast might not be considered “woke” if all the characters promote the stereotype.

Ideally, the answer to your question would be approximately zero. You should wear the “woke” epithet as a badge of honor.
