Self-driving trucks will “fix” the problem soon enough. Then driving will be a no-paying job :/

We need a functional labor movement, period.

Outside air is the opposite of what you want, yeah. You want to seal the room as much as possible and run room air through the ice. This will keep cool (ish) air inside and air-like-fire outside.

Nope. You use large blocks of ice. Ice is self-supportive when it is large, and sticks around longer. I’ve done this many times in temps considerably higher than 80F. The key is to use big blocks. A gallon milk jug frozen solid is a good choice as the water stays in the milk jug. You just allow for headspace when…

I was boggled by the referenced other ad where guns and gun rights were not mentioned even once. “Rifle” was used but only as part of the name.

That said, some rumors are saying that she’s being groomed as LaPierre’s successor.

Swamp coolers work just fine in humid environs. You just build them differently. You put the airflow through ice, not just water. Instead of relying on evaporative cooling, you go straight for the vein with 10lbs of ice.

The compromise on the federal level is to kick it back down to the states and let the states decide. In essence, the federal govt neither bans nor legalizes it.

It doesn’t change a single thing in regards to my number. Your statement was wild hyperbole and you know it. All I did was point out how wildly hyperbolic it was.

And, while it is impossible to argue specific numbers, considerable studies have shown that the majority of firearms uses in self-defense do not result in…

I was using 40k deaths and 300mil guns, so somewhat higher fatality numbers (yours would be 0.0127% actually). It’s not massaging statistics in the slightest though. The person I was responding to said, “pretty much always ends”. That phrase states pretty strongly that owning a gun “pretty much always” ends with a…

Somewhere in the neighborhood of 0.013% of the firearms in this country are involved in a fatality in any given year. So, no, it does not “pretty much always ends with the person getting shot and killed with their own gun” etc. It all but never ends like that. The staggeringly overwhelming majority of firearms in this…

If you seriously think that martial arts training would help against two attackers armed with baseball bats, you’re the one that’s going to “get fucked” if that sort of situation happens to you. The first thing any reputable MA instructor teachers in the case of armed opponents is to flee, period.

Good work, Special Agent Griner. Special Agents Bailey and Cabrera too.

Exactly this. I dislike VW and would still cheerfully help out on something like this.

The color on the quarters is the legal color of the car. If you scroll up you see that the aprons are the same green on this unit. Basically the body shell is shot one color and that is the color that shows on the title.

I have never understood the left’s fascination with, and constant forgiveness of, Bill Maher.

Pagans aren’t as likely to sue the balls off a local govt as, say, nazis or, sadly, atheists.

Nice! In my friend’s case, he was born in her living room. Mama was pregnant in a high-kill shelter and my friend fostered her through pregnancy, birth, and weaning until she and all but one pup were adopted out. That one pup is her baby, plain and simple. As she says, she’s the first human being to see him and the…

A friend has a catahoula/pit mix and he’s looks so much like your dog. Incredibly smart dog, great with kids, perfect off-leash. He’s a superb pooch. She’s training him to be her service animal.

So, erm, what is the rake and bag of lime for?

Buddy of mine has one. It is probably overall the best 4dr enthusiast’s car I’ve ever been in. He takes it to track days and drives the hell out of it, and has since he got it in 14(?). Very little maintenance issues once the growing pains were corrected by GM (all under warranty). He’s done a bunch of mods using…
