maybe melt down some silver dollars to make silver bullets for them?

The film “Slackers” from 2002 apparently.

Slip-n-slide is a reasonably close translation, but marcus75' version is probably more true-to-life.

most foams do not take kindly to being exposed to solvents, so I imagine the hot glue has a better chance at not harming the relatively fragile foam.

they’re generating a lot of money for them, so let’s see if they value money or principles more. :)

No IR combustion plume on a super sensitive infrared camera pod.
That was no missile, hypersonic or otherwise, not one we built at any rate. Last I checked all engines humanity has built for flying objects run hot, usually very hot.

Vetinari would be an extremely competent (and dangerous) head of state, he’d be perfect. :)

using the presidency to enrich himself

Usually you need someone to “break” the unwritten rules before someone writes them down, so I hope so for the USA’s sake. They did the same with presidential term-limits after World War 2 after all. But you didn’t have the kind of Republicans in office back then that you do now.

It’s not impossible, just unlikely that they’ll let him. He’s definitely ignoring the unwritten rules of the presidency and none of his fellow repubs are calling him out on it. Expect him to try and pull a move like that if shit is about to hit the fan. There’s a great deal the office of the President is allowed to do

fun fact, I’m a year older than he is, and even though I’m saying it myself, I probably look half his age. :P

It’s certainly a good thing that this discussion is being had at the policy level at all right now. Though I somehow doubt it was Trumps idea (unless he literally intended it as a PR moment), but let’s hope that something positive will finally come from this.
He’ll earn my praise for his efforts on gun control if

There’s a problem in wanting the minority of crazies on both sides to shut up to come to a compromise though, because they’ll never shut up. Sure they’re a minority, but they’re extremely vocal and very loud. Hell the NRA (and the aggressive anti-gun nuts on the other side) do their utmost to amplify these voices as

#notallcatholics Pablo. ;)

To be fair, none of the democrats want to actually repeal the 2nd amendment, even though the GOP and NRA will scream that at the top of their lungs at every opportunity.
They want to restrict which arms you can legally buy (handguns and hunting rifles fine, automatic and semi-auto rifles not fine), but not abolish it

except you know, where they’re not. (Germany and the UK are an example).

Considering a modern PC with an SSD boot drive will probably have a sub-20 second (and probably sub-10 second) boot time, why bother putting it to sleep.
Restoring from sleep or hibernate probably takes longer than a full reboot at this point. Especially once you put Windows 10's annoying hybrid hibernate to bed for

Being sort of furry myself, I would be welcoming about it.
To be honest, it’s far more likely that I’d be the one coming out as Furry than anyone else in the immediate family. :)

I’ll be playing a fair bit of Subnautica I hope. Just completed my Colossus (after ~14 hours playing or so), now I need to find more story related stuff and build bases in new places to look for the resources I need. :)

It depends, most of the time they have a “fixed” set of moves that need to be included in the routine, it is up to the choreographer and skaters of the team to find a pattern that works to the music they select, but the choice of music, as far as I’m aware is entirely open. So I imagine the taste of the athletes is a
