I consider it animal abuse, but I can understand that there’s an argument that it’s not. I think the distinction of requiring scientific evidence supporting their claim is a reasonable requisite to allow the discussion.

It seems like things worked out here. My knee-jerk reaction would be to classify vegan diets in carnivor pets to be animal abuse and probably would have reported. But discussion happened to allow for discourse, and they rolled back the decision to at least allow for transparency.

And to be clear, I still think it is hands down animal abuse and hope that others come to the same conclusion. Animals don’t have the ability to make an informed choice. Subjecting them to a dangerous diet to satisfy your own niche moral compass is evil.

It’s not about you, it’s about the animal. Get over yourself.

But again, I think it’s OK to have the discussion, and I hope the community buries their side into oblivion.

And the timespan of the increased cost of everything.

Since the pandemic, construction ply more than tripled in price and isn’t going down.

That’s insane. Income can’t keep up with that.

He is correct that the forces are different. The equation for centripetal force is Fc = Mv2/R.

Radius is the distance from the focal point, and each seat will be different distances.

So he is technically correct that seat position could be calculated in perfect conditions with accurate measurements.

But none of the data that reaches this service will be remotely accurate or complete enough to make that determination. It will only have one passengers phone data, and even if it collected everyones phone data, phone sensors have a margin of error well above what the difference would be. GPS data is only even marginally accurate up to something like 6ft, and really not even then. Then cars have a lot of other factors like suspension and compression in seats, etc, that would absorb enough of the forces to muddy the data even if accurate sensors were everywhere.

Tl;dr; another cocky person that took a few physics courses but walked away with a poor understanding of real world applications talking out their ass.

R/conservative had the habit of locking most comment threads to members only. It may have been an exclude instead of include list.

You see 500% markup.

I see 10 pounds for the time and effort to shop around for bargains, then storing your haul, list the items online, and the cost of the other dozens of books that never sell, and then time and effort to package and ship, and whatever customer service along the way.

Rofl. Imagine being mildly infuriated that someone marked up a bargain bin purchase by $10 to cover their time and effort to make it available to you to buy from the comfort of your home.

Why don’t you spend your own day rummaging through thrift stores for it next time?

I tried the sled with shims on my thickness planer. It worked, but it was certainly a pain in the ass and unwieldy due to weight and length.

Picked up a 6" bench top jointer. Not great at long boards due to length of the feeds. Picked up some roller stands hoping that would be close enough, but I moved and the garage needs a lot of work before I can try them out.

If you can pick up a full floor sized jointer and have room for it, you’ll save yourself several headaches if you plan on jointing a ton of rough cut lumber.

It was straight and square when it was milled. Problem is that the big box stores cut corners during the kiln drying phase, so the boards have a ton of moisture still in them. As that dries, the boards twist and cup.

Plus poor protection from the elements at each storage step, which means rapid temp changes, which also causes wood movement.

Go to a local lumber yard. They tend to do a better job at kiln drying. You’re still going to have warped boards, but far fewer in my experience.

Rofl. I was wondering why I couldn’t see the other reply to you, and realized it might because I already blocked that user. Went to incognito, and yep, blocked that rabid user a while ago.

I recommend doing the same. I forgot “Global South” was even a term used here.

It is pretty exhausting fighting their subtle tankie arguments over and over, lest someone more impressionable only see their bullshit and believe it.

Definitely intentionally deceiving by OP.

Working with exotic animals at a sanctuary is basically a labor of love. It’s a shitty industry to make a living in, but these kinds of places usually run on fumes.

Still, the training fee, walkie deposit, and not supplying the tour vehicle are pretty sus.

They backtracked on that years ago due to public backlash. That’s no longer the case AFAIK

The price is wrong sound, but in fart muffler tones.

My wife’s car disconnects my bt audio like every 5 mins. There are certain intersections where it always connects. I’ve long suspected its because of other bt devices using the same frequencies. This is on a 2023 ev car using android auto.

My shitty aftermarket bt radio I installed on my 2003 PoS is 100% stable. No problems.

Or you can just buy one for < $60 to fit your particular use case exactly

DeWalt too. Got a table saw that shipped with a broken part, and their contact us form was broken. Eventually gave up and bought a replacement part off Amazon. Someone got a promotion for reducing claims.

My guess is the handyman special. Bought the wrong hardware for another client months ago, and finally found a sucker that bought the “hey, I have a brand new sink that never got installed from another job collecting dust. I’ll hook you up”

I’m not well versed on the details surrounding this, but it sounds like Pi pivoted to supply businesses during the chip shortage, instead of direct to consumer in the more hobbyist space.

That seems like a win win, well within moral business practice.

Yes, Pi was founded (afaik) as a cheap minimalist PC. No thrills or bullshit, with a strong moral stance on making a barebones PC available to all.

Pivoting to help keep a global chip shortage from causing a global collapse of anything needing simple circuit boards isn’t evil. It’s helping everyone get through potentially a lot worse than not having access to a mostly hobbyist device. And it probably meant they could use their own impacted supply line in the most efficient way possible.

Hopefully the consumer Pi isn’t lost for good, but this seems far from corporate greed, but a necessary concession during a global disaster.

I refuse your anecdotal argument after giving my purely anecdotal argument, and then somehow link that to a completely unrelated topic

And has someone who quit over poor compensation, those are exactly the bullshit reasons I told HR on my way out, as to not burn bridges.

When I was younger, at least. Old me doesn’t give a shit anymore.
