No I don’t think it is because “woman” but rather “obvious awkward disingenous hello there!fellow kids!” Reasons why McCain wasn’t nominee Kerry failed and many other reasons. Bernie would have won. Just sayin’. But too late now innit. It’s not old guy or woman. It’s how the dems campaign with zero and negative conviction benefits or reasons for voters to go vote. Not copium but sad reality. Most people live paycheck to paycheck. If your policies don’t align then they won’t risk their life for you.

And climate change doesn’t reduce the grocery bills or stop inflation. Just sayin’

so-called “gravity batteries” is pretty much exactly a dam with a mini-dam/reservoir at the bottom. When there is an excess, you run the motor to reverse the waterflow to pump uphill into a highe-elevation water retention pond/mini-dam.

This also helps reduce the amount of outflow water “lost” due to high-demand. Since you could take almost a day to fill the bottom reservoir and spend “wind”/solar to pump back the “lost” water downstream back into the higher-level reservoir.

Even if things are inefficient wind/solar are “renewable”, so you can keep “wasting” excess to replenish the dam and still make enough money back ( think in-terms of drought, flooding, windy, sunny, cloudy, etc ) you can basically keep the high-output “system” always topped-up with water. And still supply water + electricity as it is needed. There is no “downside”.

Not everyone agrees. So opinions can differ.

Terry Pratchett - G.N.U

I told the truth and people downvote the truth. It is sad. Somehow pushing “The Message” absolves people of any responsibility to what they are supporting and doing causing problems.

If you use Google Meet or Zoom or some kind of Desktop recording software, you can record yourself talking between blank or paused video while taking the online course and have the transcript + your own voiced notes with the recording as review material + courseware.

If you take the trouble of revisiting , revising, re-note-taking you might end up with better understanding and even self-generated workbook + answers too ( including your mistakes and what is a false trail or false path and the correct approach ) .

Almost all illnesses are worth avoiding. Take for example, malaria. Dengue has 4-variants which can kill if you’ve already got any one of others the first time. COVID still hasnt been fully researched yet.

In xenophobic Japan, a foreigner especially an African is allowed to massacre Japanese people with zero consequences. The same problem will exist if a westerner enters Japan and massacres Japanese citizenry with zero consequence.

It was a very anti-Japanese ( replace Japanese with Jewish or any other ethnic or cultural or minority group ) game centered in Japan. ( Butsu buddha statue is expressly forbidden in Japan from pictorial / digital / non-real-life representations but Ubisoft decided to make a digital 3d model and place it in AC:S) with blatant disrespect and cultural-dissonance.

If it was Yagyu Juubei and Naoe or some similar Japanese main-characters there would be almost no backlash . Edit2: complete rejection as non-immersive and non-Japanese behaviour.

Edit: Listen to gamers and sensible people who actually care for a good Ubisoft game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUu7-i1kMyg

Edit2: Listen to a Japanese perspective to the problems Ubisoft has caused Japan. An entire country offended for greedy corpos and fake DEI messaging. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GYauJy9fJ0

Any sanitation worker, sewage diver, drain block remover, in most of the third-world countries.

We need city drainages to be repaired, cleaned, maintained, and managed with draconian safety, extremely well-compensated, hazardpay up the wazoo workers comp and complete-healthcare all covered for life. So many workers are just abused for the lifeline work that keep a city’s arteries from getting clogged and flowing smoothly.

I saw how Korean drain-workers do it with high-pressure water jets and incredible efficiency and knowhow talent of their vital job. I wish we didnt have the corruption that prevents this type of training, trained worker, worker pride in the essential labour that they do.

Same goes for recycling and reducing waste. We humans don’t do nearly enough and the Top-20 major corporations that cause 80% of worldwide pollutants go unchecked and unpunished.

Nobody is going to actually care about this except as a gossip item.

Did he use Campaign finances to pay for things ? Did he break the law by misusing and mis-appropriating funds ? Has he done money laundering ?

And most important of all, IS HE GOING TO SPEND TIME IN JAIL FOR ALL HIS CRIMES ?

If its “Rules for thee and not for me” most people are not going to care. They will want to set the world on fire and watch it all burn to the ground.

I hope no one wants to know the private going on of these kinds of deranged people. If they do the crime, they must do the time. Sadly it is rich-get-out-of-jail-free card at play.

Unions should demand that the worker salary per year should be equal to the highest paid employee of the company’s total pay averaged monthly.

That way the CEO will only be able earn 12-times more than the lowest paid union member.

Also CEO/Board member benefits / bonuses / gifts are ILLEGAL unless the exact same is automatically provided to every unionized worker.

Orville is a return to the ST:TNG formula that made Picard and Riker so famous and much loved.

I actually like Seth and Adriana as CiC and FO. They play off each other without seeming disingenuous.

Recent warnings about Automatic Cat Litterboxes chewing up cats and munching them to death makes very sad and very bad.

It is important to stay on message and also to do a bit of attack-dog name-calling.

Totally correct for Kamala to do both.

Drumpf is a sad old filthy-rich loser egotist smoocher criminal who never should have been allowed even 10-feet to the Oval Office.

DO NOT F.A.F.O. this election Kamala and the DNC.

It is so vital and crucial to keep campaigning and doing things right.

If you F.A.F.O. kiss goodbye to EVERYTHING. You WILL BEAR THE BLAME.

In table-tennis / pingpong,

Equipment Junkies.

It is both an insult as well as an addiction/habit.

Amateur and Pro TT players usually have trained from childhood as early as 3 years old tend to have an almost god-like superior ability to learn and relearn in the sport at any age.

But most folks get into TT at an older age around their late-20s.

TT reflexes cannot be gained at the later stages of life. Almost a miracle for an older player to “git gud”.

Hence, you will find the older players have the income to buy equipment used by the Top-10 players in the world. Hence “Equipment Junkie”.

The number of permutations and combinations in TT equipment is crazy for such a “simple” looking sport.

Real problem is when you buy all this expensive stuff and your game gets WORSE not better. You “lend” your equipment to other players and all of them seem to play better than you with your own equipment.

So you spent a lot of money, and don’t want to let anyone touch your equipment ( because it would be embarrassing for them to become “better” players using your stuff while you wallow in misery of not benefitting from your own purchases ).

So EJs tend to have a extremely absurd amount of equipment that they have spent exorbitant prices purchasing and do not want to sell it to others ( again for fear their purchase is fuelling other peoples abilities at their own expense ) but they keep buying the next “Top-10” world TT players latest equipment without even understanding the sport.

It is an endless cycle which continues as more new blood is added to the mix and more EJs end caught up in the craze.

What discomfort between Black and Asian ( esp. Indian Asian ?? ) that doesn’t exist at all. Chinese / Japanese communities may or may not have issues with Black communities, but Indians have emigrated to Africa and elsewhere without any issues with Black communities.

Not all Asian or Black communities are the same.

A billionaire took the family fortune of billions and reduced it to mere millions over several decades.

It is astonishing how difficult it is for a billion USD to get spent on luxury items would still remain in the hundreds of millions for decades. A billionaire has to leech off the workers and wages and company and society to amass a billion dollars. It is greed on a different scope and scale.

Anyone who hits a billion dollars should get instant prison time. A single island in the middle of nowhere with ALL amenities. Jetski, Yatch, Resort, everything EXCEPT coming back into normal society. NO visitors, NO people. Just prison guards and maintenance staff once a month under supervision and then everyone leaves under surveillance.

And I don’t think we will have to worry about running out of islands … there are more abandoned rocks in the middle of the oceans than there are billionaires on the planet.

Sony Support SUX.

When you go to Samsung or Moto/Lenovo support, they would give you a loaner phone when yours was in for repairs. Repair centers accepted wherever they were located.

Sony would tell a 1500USD phone customer to F*CK OFF if they asked for a loaner phone during repairs. You have to go to the Sony Mobile repair center to get any kind of help. There are tons of dealers and TV / audio / other Sony repair and none of those have any kind words or help for customers.

Sony Support is DOGSHIT GARBAGE.

Pipedreams are all good and fine. First get her elected into office. Then do all the planning you want after Nov’2024.

Rich donors will not appreciate all the “go after rich people”. Get her elected. Everything else follows after that.
