If you’re in a cold environment, the water that’s been sitting in the pipes in the house will be warmer than the water coming in from outside the house. If the sink/toilet/whatever increases water usage, that warmer water gets used up more quickly.
Water chills the body about 25 times faster than air of the same temperature, so even a 1-2 degree temperature change can feel like a LOT when it’s sudden.
Saudi Crown Prince. Trump defended his ordering the murder and dismemberment of a Washington Post journalist just this week.
It’s not about homosexuality being wrong. It’s about the hypocrisy of the Trump’s treatment of sexual minorities.
And let’s not forget that it was Clinton who signed an order to eject non-closeted homosexuals from the military.
I’m sure the administration suddenly removing federal whistle lower protections has NOTHING to do with fear of the people who had access to the real files.
…Here we may reign secure, and in my choice
To reign is worth ambition though in hell:
Better to reign in hell, than serve in heaven.
Lucifer: Paradise Lost
That’s kinda a catch-all for use of someone else’s device or accessing protected data device or service.
It sounds like an add-on charge related to accessing the CC numbers.
Sounds like he was accused of using a stolen phone.
if you haven’t played Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night you really, really should. It’s made by the creators behind the Castevania games and is REALLY good.
Batman: Arkham Asylum should count. Maybe not the later games as much, but definitely Asylum. It’s all about backtracking with new gear to unlock new areas and paths.
The Tomb Raider survivor trilogy scratches the itch a bit as well.
$15 plus 1% of rent plus card processing fees.
If your rent is $1200 and there’s a 3.5% processing fee, you’re looking at $70/month in extra fees.
Has anyone here actually read the book?
It’s not exactly a page-turner.
I knew a guy in grad school who was a hard-core Trumper back in 2015/16 who thought I was too because we both owned guns and were white I guess.
Anyway - I was talking to him one day about an epidemiological analysis I was leading a team on for HHS. I’m a geographer, and our group was analyzing the demographic, spatial, socioeconomic, and temporal distribution of cases of gonorrhea in a major metropolitan area.
I explain that we’re doing multivariate analysis on the demographic stuff because of all the issues caused by covariance showing “fake” correlation between gonorrhea and other variables. I explained that while the strongest indicator of gonorrhea in univariate analysis was whether or not you were black, that was actually an artifact from the fact that being black had a strong covariance with other variables like low income status, low employment rate, low education level, high population density, poor access to preventative healthcare, etc, and that when you took all the covariance into account there was no actual statistically significant correlation between gonorrhea and being black.
He then said something that was etched into my memory:
“It’s just you and me here, [chilie]. You don’t have to be all PC about thisbshit with me. We both know that just like how there’s stupid breeds of dogs, there are stupid breeds of people, and it’s a fucking disgrace that you can’t study that honestly here.”
That racist motherfucker has a Master’s degree.
It’s almost like one side of the political aisle spent decades demonizing gun ownership, and now the fascists own all the guns.
The GOP is evil, but the Dems are really bad at politics. Guns and abortion are by far the biggest issues for single-issue voters, and they’re almost overwhelmingly single-sided. How many pro-choice voters who are otherwise liberal would have voted for Trump if he had been pro-choice and Harris had been pro-life?
Pretty close to zero, because nobody has pro-choice as the single item they will base 100% of their vote on, while millions of pro-life voters will absolutely change party affiliation over it. It’s why, in the general election, candidates running a campaign centered on abortion rights get skewered. It doesn’t matter that the majority of voters are pro choice if the only people who actually vote based on abortion are the pro-life voters.
It’s the same thing to a slightly lesser extent with guns. By centering campaigns on anti-gun issues that don’teven make sense (cosmetic gun features, supressors, ordering guns online that still have to be transferred with a background check at a licensed dealer, gun show loopholes that don’t actually exist, etc), the Dems have allowed the GOP to cater to gun owners. And now that politics is turning increasingly violent, they’ve also effectively disarmed their supporters.
Guns are evil until they’re necessary. And we’re quickly approaching the “necessary” phase without them.
The final vote was 427:1. Almost all Republicans voted for the bill once the discharge petition (that was joined by a few Republicans) was pushed through.
Too bad he didn’t tell them to investigate Trump then!
We need to ask for the long-form Epstein Files.
Do they have 5090s in them?
Shooting competitions can be useful. Especially something like a 3-gun match where you’re moving around, reloading, changing weapons, have an accuracy penalty, and are running against a clock.
But the biggest problem there is money. Ammo is reaaly expensive these days, and 3-gun will use up a LOT of it.
The main thing the Endangered Species Act does is limit development in the habitat of endangered species. The President of the United States is a developer. Of course he’s targeting the Endangered Species Act. He hates it with a passion.
Also, his felony convictions are related to the overvaluation of land he owns that can’t actually be developed due to a conservation easement that’s the result of the Endangered Species Act.
