It does not have an internal battery but can use any battery pack that can do 100W output.

I pre-ordered this for a few reasons. One, my experience with butane irons was very different than yours I guess. I hated how long they took and how finicky they were. Then I had to find a safe place to put it while it cooled. This has a cap that can handle the high temp with no issue.

When I need a portable iron it's to do small quick soldering with long waits in between. This seems perfect for that.

AMD has no chip fabs. They use TSMC like most other big chip companies. Intel is one of the few that has their own fabs.

So you've never actually listened to one of his speeches then have you? He can't maintain a train of thought and usually doesn't finish a sentence before going off track and never finishing. He fell asleep at his own trial. He is absolutely too old and does all the things they accused Biden of. Biden was too old, so is Trump.

Nope, Trump is his parties verified candidate which happens at the convention. Dems have not had their convention yet so Biden was not officially the candidate. Semantics, yes but technically true.

The art style is nice but the content makes no sense. Kanban and scrum are parts of agile. They are not their own systems.

Lean also doesn't mean you have no money. It's a system of manufacturing where you cross train people to do the jobs on either side of them so they can pick up slack if needed and keep things moving without hiring more people.

This is not about beating your wife. It's more about rape or forced sex. There are actually lots of places that marriage is still a defense to say you are allowed to force your spouse to have sex since you're married.

Good for WV for removing that. I think a lot of women will still not know they have options.

The West Virginia is definitely wrong. I've personally seen more than 24 waterfalls there.

It's ok to not know something. You don't have to share an opinion that has no basis.

If you've ever done multi-day outside activities in the cold, you learn really quick to not wear cotton socks or under layers. Your sweat is what makes you cold because cotton will no longer provide a warm layer. Wool still has air pockets and will keep you warmer and may save your life or limbs.

Are you going to be comfortable in wet wool? No, but you have a better chance of surviving and not getting frostbite.

I have almost exclusively darn tough socks now and have for over 15 years at this point. I do eventually get worn areas in them but I never let them get anywhere near this bad. A small section of padding worn out is enough for DT to replace them for me. My main hobby is backpacking though so they get used hard and often. I would guess they last somewhere around 500 miles per pair for the micro crews. The business socks are also nice but wear out faster.

You've never driven one have you? Electric motors are crazy powerful and it's all torque. My Prius can accelerate faster than my Tacoma. What you are seeing in people driving a Prius is trying to save gas by not accelerating hard. Just because they often don't doesn't mean they can't when it's needed.

This is like the opposite of what they asked though. They didn't ask for healthy, they asked for less farting. Lots of vegetables will make lots of farting.

It's funny because you are just doing the same thing in a different way. Tomatoes and mushrooms have msg naturally. The ketchup is mostly about adding some sugar.

A secret ingredient in a lot of sauces is anchovy paste and it's partly for the msg. It does make a sauce taste great though.
