I run on a trail that has an osprey nesting platform. When I get near one of the parents takes off and makes warning sounds. Yesterday they weren't there, so I think they've migrated a little early.
Interesting fact about osprey: Juveniles don't migrate with their parents. They make their first migration alone, thousands of miles to a place they've never been. They establish a permanent winter home and then return to the area of their birth the next spring.
There's a huge difference between personal politics and organizational politics. There's massive inertia and the fact that it's by definition a democratic socialist organization.
There's value in joining if there's no other org you can be a part of, or maybe to poach people, but you'll never drive them significantly left.
The right move would be to break them up. Separate all the business units that collude to abuse their monopoly power.
Knowing the recent history of US anti-trust, it'll drag on for years and the government will settle for a money judgement and an agreement to stop doing things that they don't need to do anymore.
The stupidest part of this thing will be the repair costs and corresponding insurance rates. A shopping cart ding can't be repaired with Bondo and paint. Nor can it be repaired by normal paintless dent repair tools because it's 3mm stainless steel. Basically any accident will require panel replacement, since there's only a few shops in the whole country that can repair stainless steel body panels.
A fender repair that would cost $1500 on a normal vehicle will cost $10k. I'm sure we'll see parking lot accidents that total one of these.
These posts always make me question myself because I've basically never worn deodorant or antiperspirant.
I've had jobs where you can't be stinky(sales,office jobs, at a hospital), and nobody has ever said anything. I've lived with partners for 16 years, none have ever complained about my smell(besides times when anyone would smell, like after a long run on a hot day).
I'm guessing I just have lucky personal body chemistry, but I'm sure there will be some people telling themselves I'm just smelly and don't know it.
I can't even begin to imagine what she'd do about the Gaza war.
Pop pills and give the ok for whatever the Pentagon wants to do.
So not much different than what Biden is doing, just different pills.
I think the only way it will work is if you connect via Bluetooth(if the echo dot can do that). Casting basically just sends a URL to the device and it fetches the audio feed itself. Since xmanager isn't on the echo, it can't block the ads.
I have the same issue when playing through my Google Home's. I tried looking for a domain to block through my router, but I couldn't find one that wouldn't also block the music.
The best part is how the OP never admits being wrong and still gets it wrong in the last post before closing the thread
There was a republican DA running on a platform of not doing plea bargains on the theory that plea bargains are soft on crime.
I would have voted for her if I didn't know that she would give up on that plan the minute she had to start dismissing cases because they couldn't handle the case load.
Plea bargains are punishment for exercising your right to a trial.
Suffolk county homicide police make $100k+, with unbelievable benefits. Guys later in their careers can get 200 days of paid time off per year, a very generous pension that cannot be taken away, and take home cars with gas paid for by the county.
They are unbelievably bad at homicide investigations, mostly just following hunches and beating suspects.
The problem isn't just the pay, they are rotten institutions that are beyond repair short of firing most of them at once.
They would have to have a lot of switches and network wires connecting them and systems to monitor them. Even then, I doubt this draw would be enough to signal to them that it's a problem. Probably not drawing more than a stove on the cleaning cycle, far below a level that would say, "This area is drawing too much power".
