For what reason the news doesn’t highlight that type of stuff and instead focuses on whatever they focus on, I have no idea.

Easy, they want outrage. Biden following through on some mundane promise made some time ago riles up exactly no one, therefore it doesn't get a headline. Modern media is extremely predictable in their approach.

What's an example of an apolitical dog whistle that cannot be identified as right or left wing?

Tell me what the primary use of a firearm in my home is on a daily-basis other than being an active risk.

Well, it serves multiple purposes, actually! For starters, it makes a fantastic paperweight when I have too many documents on my desk. Secondly, if I ever run out of popcorn kernels while watching a movie, I can just load some small ones into the gun and shoot them into a frying pan. It also works great as a marshmallow launcher during backyard bonfires - that'll impress all your friends at your next neighborhood get-together. Oh, and last but not least, you can use it as a walking stick or a selfie stick for those hard-to-reach angles. Clearly, there are several creative ways to utilize a firearm in everyday life.

In manufacturing, there is a piece rate for every SKU. At places I have worked this is a very carefully tracked number, as it will inform the production rate which will then affect inventory. A gain of 20% would be extremely major.

If this ends up working out, awesome. I just fear that cost of living has risen so much lately and this will be weaponized into yet another excuse to charge consumers more. "Of course we have to charge more, our workers are here less!"

Err... the US is a constitutional federal republic, not a direct democracy. So, the answer is: N/A

Not specifically browser settings, but in Windows and Linux you should have access to a per application mixer and can reduce / mute the volume of your browser to zero.

No clue. I'm just pointing out the existing association. He could be 1 in 1000 or he could be in 1 in 4.

LOL that's what I'm talking about... I can see the reply already "that's not true anti-semitism..."

  • Disassembling the wheel: To do this, you'll need a screwdriver that fits the size of the screws holding the wheel in place. You should find them around the axle on the side where the wheel connects to the luggage. There might be more than one screw, so make sure you unscrew all of them. Once the screws are removed, gently pull out the wheel by applying pressure on both sides of the axle until it comes free. Be careful not to damage the wheel or its surrounding parts as you disconnect it.

  • Removing the inner components: After removing the outer casing (the part we see when the wheel is attached to the luggage), you'll have access to the inner workings of the wheel. The center hub should still be connected to the metal shaft, which is what makes the wheel rotate. This part may be stuck because of the accumulated dirt and grime. To separate them, apply some penetrating oil to the joint where the hub connects to the shaft. Wait for about 30 minutes before attempting to take apart these pieces.

  • Cleaning: Now that the inner components are separated, use a small brush and some warm soapy water to scrub away any remaining debris and grime. Rinse the parts with clean water, making sure no soap remains. Leave the wheel parts to dry fully before reassembling them.

  • Reassembly: When the parts are completely dry, reverse the process you followed to remove them, putting everything back together. Lubricate the shaft and hub connection with some light grease to prevent further gunk build-up. Make sure the nut on the shaft is tight enough but don't overdo it, as this could damage the threads.

  • Final assembly: Put the outer casing back onto the wheel, and then securely fasten the screws to attach it to your luggage again. Test the wheel by rolling the luggage around. It should now turn smoothly without any resistance from the built-up grime.

You aren't missing shit. This is the correct interpretation of the law. Most of the posters here assume this legislation is the equivalent of a hunting license for homeless, which couldn't be further from the truth. This affects only violent trespassers who have already been advised of their trespassing and displayed violence. Anyone randomly gunning down people who step on their property will have to convince a jury it was in compliance with this regulation.
