They were never about hobbies. We were a niche that they were happy to have, but they never cared. Origionally it was about education (which has a large overlap with hobbies so they served well).
Possible, but it may come with downsides you don't like.
That is the meme, but when I talk to military people they point out Russian incompetence. They do not believe NATO ships are that vulnerable. Ukraine is using a lot of tanks, but because they are using them according to good military doctrine they are not taking nearly as many losses. Note that Ukraine and Russia both got their tank instructions from the old Soviet playbook not a NATO book (though Ukraine as had NATO training as well), there is nothing about using a tank well Russia shouldn't know, but they are failing to follow their own book on how to use tanks.
The market does tend to overreact so this is possible a sign to buy low. I can't be bothered to check the fundamenals but it seems unlikely that amd is a better investment long term. If you are not looking at least 5 years to the future stocks are a bad idea.
it is also a death sentence to be on the frontlines with no way to learn where you need to go. unsecure comms are better than no comms and russia isn't competent enough to provide secure comms.

ai has been doing that trick since the 1950s. There have been a lot of use coming out of ai, but it has never been called ai once successful and never lived up to the early hype. some in the know about all those previous ones were surprised by the hype and not surprised about where it has gone, while others pushed the hype.
The details have changed but nothing else.
Magnuson-Moss comes to mind. non oem parts cannot be used to deny warranty coveragi
There are evisting federal laws, right to repair laws, and plenty of attorny generals who will get involved.
Targeted layoffs are tricky to pull off. You can be sued for wrongful dismissal and then you need to show you were not targeting that person by anything other than random. You can easially lay off everyone on a project. Anything where you select individuals is risky if they can somehow argue you choose them because of some status (minority or whatever - even white male is not a status you can dismiss someone on) . Don't get me wrong, companies lay off part of a department all the time - but they would prefer to not do that.
Even if someone quits from a department you don't want to lose people from, you can just transfer an employee from a different department that didn't lose enough people. So this is good enough and someone who quits cannot sue.
Also if someone quits they cannot collect unemployment. Generally governments track how often a company lays off employees and charges higher unemployment rates to those who lay off more people so getting people to quit saves you here too.
the main lemmy developers are evil people, and they also admin the lemmy.ml instance. Stay away. other lemmy instances are admired well enough, but look for a mbin instance just to give the lemmy devs less power.
If you burn that oil instead you would run out in about 10 hours assuming you were going for the same energy output. A lot oi oil is in them for sure, but compared to a oil burned for power it is nothing.
Where I live they got it. While it isn't law, the local fast food is all starting at $16/hour or more.
Because it is expensive and when your grandparents don't remember a time when food was scarce, but a lot of people can remember a time when money was tight it seems to make sense to not spend all that money on storage. (Until you reach the rich level any additional money goes to things like larger houses or nicer houses which means you live paycheck to paycheck and have about the same amount of money to spend every day - after all the deductions to pay for the above - as someone who is poor)
This is the same reason infrastructure in all areas is often left to rot - maintenance costs money and if the effects of not doing it are not immediately visible it is easy to stop doing it even if overall it makes your life worse in the long run.
Of course the above is easy to say. It is also easy to talk about places where you are an exception. However it is very hard to see the places where you are doing the same as everyone else and foolishly falling behind on something to your long term detriment. (also there are some people who talk about being an exception who are spending too much effort on things that don't need to be done)
I'm able to get the good parts of scrum without all the overhead with kanban. Sprints are worthless, work doesn't align on a 2 week cadence anyway.
You engauge with it, you must like it.
Despite the above study, if you are a male in an abusive relationship there often is no help even if you seek it out.
There are lots of great choices. I personally like natural oil stones. For rough work I will go with india stones, then fine Arkansas stones for the finish. Others like waterstones but I find water messier as the stones need to soak (not all do, but some do). I find diamond stones are too course but maybe the ultra fine grades are good. Sand paper works well at 1000 and 2000 grit but gets expensive fast as the paper wears out fast.
all of the above work though despite what preferences. you will not go to hell or something for a wrong choice. In the end try soemthing and if it doesn't work for you try something else.
i do have some stones that won't sharpen my exotic wood working blades, but a kitchen knife won't be made of those.
i can't wait for the day content is there. I always look there first but too often I can't find anything close to what I want.
I was too lazy to follow the money.
Don't try to cheat the government. make sure you can say either you reported the large gift for tax purposes or the total is under 18k., if you must cheat you can take them on vecation and they use your gear for free but the plane ticket, meals and anything that could look like a gift is under the limit.
tax fraud is something the irs takes serously and you never know when they look. Plus you are not sympathetic to a jury so prison is likely for you.
if you give anyone more than 10k in a year (well under the limit) have your accountant deliver it all so there is plenty of evidence that you are not cheating. If you want to give over 18k have your accountant figure out how to do withholding so you friends don't have a tax surprise.
the kbin developer hasn't done anything in months (some form of personal issues), and his instance has been offline all week. mbin is actually developed.
Road engineers are happy to design streets to encourage higher speeds than is safe as well.
The bed is starting to rot off my 1999 truck, I'm not sure how or if I should repair it
It works great however a lot of content isn't there.
We are also hoping it doesn't turn into WWIII. It could for sure, but there is the possibility that things can calm down in a few years.
At least you can get out.
inflation is a thing and so all unlimited time fixed price contracts are suspect.
practice. Nothing is easy without it. With it even the hardest is possible. So he question is how willing you are to dedicate practice time. Half an hour per day, every day for a few years.
There is a difference: data. Other software doesn't have data on what apartments are empty and what they are all renting for. They can only get data on the one landlord (even if they have more than one landlord in the system they cannot combine the data for the two). The know how many apartments one landlord has free, but not what others might have - only what they advertise. They don't know what other landlords are really charging, only what they are advertising they charge (which might be different). This lack of data means software cannot find the best possible rate for the landlord - instead each landlord has to guess what is best.
kbin/mbin is another alternative. I have no idea how the moderation tools are, but it is open source.
Diesel is clearly better if you are driving 20,000+miles per year. However you are not doing near that, so it won't be worth the extra cost. Today diesel is so much more expensive than gas that the real advantage is only that diesel engines last longer, and in your case the body will fail first.
How much of your driving is towing vs unloaded? If you are only towing then a large engine is better - displacement = torque = more fuel efficient. However if you are mostly unloaded something like the Ford Ecoboost engine is much more fuel efficient unloaded and when towing you lean on the turbo to use more fuel (as much as the large displacement engine!) and so still have the power - but the engine won't last as long overall and will break more often - thus not a good choice if you mostly tow.
I would lean to the 3/4 ton trucks. While a 1/2 ton truck has the specs to do the job, all of them are aimed at the luxury car market these days, and so they will make compromises that make them not as good for real work. 3/4 ton still is targeted at people doing real work and so they will have better compromises. (if you were asking 30 years ago a 1/2 ton would be fine)
Do you need something now? Electric trucks are just coming out and should start hitting the used market soon. They only do about 100 miles when towing, but are much more environmentally friendly if you can live with that limitation. I wouldn't think about sticking with the truck you have now for 3 more years to see what happens here (and also 3 more years to get real world experience with how electric trucks really work for people in your application)
If China directly supports Russia NATO will throw sanctions on them and that will hurt China. China is supporting Russia, but they are walking a find line as China cannot afford to make NATO mad. (NATO also will hurt, which is why NATO is looking the other way, but how long will NATO put up with China is an open question)
Suburbs have great pedestrian paths - if your only goal is to exercise. Those paths don't go anywhere, but living in the suburbs I many people using them for exercise.
Step one, get an accountant, and lawyer. Things will get complex, and mistakes can result in spending more than you have which isn't the goal. Thus an accountant to watch those numbers and keep me in the black. The big issue is taxes need to be paid so there needs to be enough left over to do that along with pay the accountant, but there will also be weird legal issues that come up.
Second, the money goes to charity. How it gets there will be tricky though.
The IRS looks at large donations and starts to assume I'm trying to dodge taxes by hiring a charity for something I'd do anyway - so my accountant will work with them to figure out what donation levels work for each that I care about. There are also some causes that I consider charity that do not meet the legal definition (often because they are political) and so the donation to them is still taxable (not that I'm trying to dodge taxes, but I'll take advantage of anything that will help causes I care about)
I will set aside some money as a fund for me. However I'll only allow myself to withdraw from it as payment for work done for charity. projects like KDE or FreeBSD can always use more help. There is a summer camp I'll volunteer for once in a while. Habitat for Humanity needs help... The important part is I need to put in 35 hours a week or I don't get money from the fund (I will allow 2 months of vacation and that summer camp will get 80 hours/week when in session which I will bank for more vacation). The important part here is I need to stay busy - doctors tell me sitting around doing nothing when you retire is deadly so I'm not going to do that.
Likely a lot of money will remain after I'm dead, so a trust fund will remain. However the instructions will be to drain the money as fast as possible. I know of several funds remaining from people who died 100+ years ago and the fund is now doing things I'm sure the original would oppose.
The downside could be something that nobody has imagined yet. That is the problem with change. I'm not against this, but I demand reasonable study. (but not unreasonable levels - vaccines and GMO have been studied enough to conclude they are generally safe despite people yelling more study needed)
The plastic lining is for soda - beer tends to be less acidic and so doesn't need it. (at least in general)
Most countries tell you to renounce after you gain the new so it isn't a problem. A few allos dual citizenhip. (maybe most allow dual? I seem to recall that but it is outside where I'm sure)
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President
You can argue that it doesn't say anything about vice president, but then he can't be part of the line of succession so what is the point. Though I wonder if maybe saying he can't be vice president on those grounds means speaker of the house also must be natural born... The constitution is short and so you can come up with weird situations like this all over.
