Let the kids smoke, maybe enough of them will get asthma and will be able to dodge the draft.

I mean I don’t think kids should actually smoke, but I always find it funny that on some things governments are willing to move heaven and earth for the sake of the children…and then turn a blind eye to things like global warming and war. Like these are also bad for the children my dudes.

Lol, people need to keep their damn hands off the lathe of heaven.

I mean if this is true I can’t imagine the Russians would think this would be a very successful attempt. This would be hilarious as a movie plot. Polish grandpa is a Soviet sleeper agent being pulled out of his retirement home and having a fsb agent attempt to explain to him how to operate a drone.

I guess throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing what sticks works with assassinations as well?

There is no way anyone is pulling 350°F+ items out of an oven with their bare hands.

I used to be able to do that when I was working in a kitchen. If you burn your hands often enough you kinda build up a tolerance/calluses. We used to call it having asbestos hands.

It really depends on your energy source and your appliance, but the cost to run something like an oven for an hour is pretty negligible, especially if it’s a somewhat modern appliance.

Most newer over run somewhere around 2-3,000 kwh, which nationwide averages to around .30 to .50 cents an hour.

The real cost of making food at home really just depends on how much you value your own labour/free time, and how much of a chore cooking is for you.

This guy bought so many rare monkey tokens. Ai is impressive in some aspects, but it’s not nearly as impressive as the marketing that drives the massive amounts of investment into it.

The US economy is doing anything it can to create growth, which is causing investors to create a bubble around AI that is “too big to fail”.

Lol, it’s not. The IRS doesn’t care about your brokerage sales unless you’re liable for a capital gains tax, which wouldn’t happen if you are not making a profit.

Plus, if they received a huge pile of paper about your trades that didn’t include a 1099-b, which is literally just like 1/4 of a sheet of paper…they would just request it from your brokerage.

Anyone who thinks the IRS is some evil org has just never done their own taxes and listens to propaganda from billionaires who don’t think taxes should exist.

If you’ve ever really had a legal problem with the IRS, you were more than likely purposely evading taxes and deserve the trouble. They are actually really reasonable to work with, and usually bend backwards to resolve the issue in several different ways before pursuing anyone legally.

Yep, what we consider to be level is relative to what you use to establish an axial plane.

Yes, some people naturally have better 3d spatial awareness. You can also train your eyes to be better over time. I work in orthotics and prosthetics and have to sculpt positive models of different body parts. We also have to do GAIT analysis where we have to observe the angle of different joints while a patient ambulates.

Some people are just better at it than others starting out, especially if they have prior similar experience. I teach a lot of residents and have noticed that students that have a background in art or construction tend to have a better eye for angles. A lot of it is just practicing by observing different angles compared to something that is known to be square.

I have also trained people who never seem to be able to improve their ability to see angles, which is a big hindrance in their careers. A lot of schools actually have students take a spacial awareness test before students begin studying in the field.
