Something to ease your pain.

I have seen videos of the detailed work that bears do. Likely the seat was no longer one piece; probably the tracks parts of the seat were still bolted in place, just no longer attached to the seat frame. 

It’s either - peel the laminated glass or shatter the tempered glass with a spring loaded center punch. Not really much to do to stop this until the glass is over 1/2 inch thick with a polycarbonate center.

How do you aim them to be at the factory road height instead of shining directly through the rear windows of every car and SUV ever made? Aiming doesn’t fix that the dash of the car or SUV can end up brighter than a sun lit day blowing out night vision adaptation and causing night-blindness. Oh, I should look away…

It’s more obvious to consider that the Cybertruck is an aluminum casting and the F-150 is cold-work hardened steel. Had the F-150 used cast-iron in that thin section to maintain weight it would have also done poorly. A unibody in cold-worked steel will crumple, maybe tear, but it won’t shatter like castings do.

The energy is absorbed in the chemical reactions which are very efficient. I had some C-size NiCads that would absorb a couple of Watts for nearly an hour and remained cool to the touch. 

The dealers and makers have found the pain point for consumers. Any drop in the interest rates will see an increase in prices, just the same as has been in play in the housing market. They look at what the monthly payment that will be tolerated is and will maintain that payment as their goal. 

The strange part is that the reason for banning smoking from planes isn’t the smoke or, in vaping, the vapor cloud. It is because some people were tossing the still burning cigarettes into the paper waste disposal slot and starting fires. Vape pens are potentially dangerous in use or not, mainly from those who use…

Etan Patz ring a bell? It’s because of what activists did that there is this sort of panic. 

Italy prosecuted scientists for failing to predict an earthquake and continue to prosecute a woman Italy falsely accused of murder and are now prosecuting for some supposed slander she made when, as a person with limited Italian and badgered by police for hours on end, that she retracted only hours later. The police…

“what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.”

Take a bow.

The simple existence of Starbucks is a massive threat to the environment. Not a single part of the operation or customer interaction is anything but environmental disaster. What this guy adds is a few seconds of how the rest of company does damage the day.

Oh, no. For some people $50k isn’t that much.

Recall that the Sandy Hook shooter, who I won’t name here because he can continue to rot in hell, used the gun his mom bought for him.

Perhaps he tried, but his mom remodeled the basement so he can’t.

Looks like a failed brain transplant. Sometimes they don’t take. I think the donor was named Abbie Normal, or so the surgeon was informed.

The unpiloted self-driving tin can of that design reached ISS on a previous mission. 

The incompatibility is NASA’s fault for not having a suit independently designed and used by both.

I think DEI initiatives have been, internally, about trying to get employees who might not otherwise have applied to decrease wage pressures. All that whining about “no one wants to work anymore” is more about “for these low wages.” Women and minorities have been used to relieve wage pressure by keeping wages lower.
