This would be a great article to run in the July.  In the northern half of the US you can’t even buy seal coating this time of year.  It’s a seasonal product

I love seeing systems like this operate. I am a huge infrastructure geek and seeing things “behind the curtain” of normal everyday life is fascinating. Years back I was building a data center and we installed a halon fire suppression system and I desperately wanted to see that go off.

Not a gas station, but an aircraft hanger at the airport near me had it’s fire suppression system go off in the middle of the night and produced a massive amount of foam that was about 10 feet deep in the hanger until they opened the doors. It then flowed out and spread across the flight line outside and across the

We actually did go down the menu list on our ‘17 MINI:

Yes. 

Bullshit. Worker productivity is way up in the last fifty years, but their portion of the earnings way down.  The bloat is with the parasites skimming all the cream, and that's where it needs to be taken back from. 'Same as it ever was.'

Fuck this. Every other first world country has no problem paying workers fair wages and costs are far from higher. I can go to Europe and make 22 bucks an hour working at McDonalds with 5 weeks paid vacations and better benefits, and the cost for the food is roughly the same

Getting tired of the “but the holiday season” nonsense. Fuck the retail suckfest that is Christmas. Do what my family did years ago once all the kids were grown. Nobody buys anything for anybody. We all HAVE everything already. I haven’t bought a Christmas present in 25 years. We get together for food and good cheer,

I doubt that Mercedes meant it that way. The greed is from the companies that hire drivers and refuse to pay them enough to keep them on the job. The independent contractor bullshit also gives the drivers no security, and low pay + no job security = everyone who can work elsewhere telling the employers to eat shit.

I don’t know who I heard say it, but they said it best, “Employers love to talk supply and demand until it comes to labor.”

It’s as if generations of wage suppression across the entire economy are suddenly being blown apart by a collective refusal to take any more of it.

This article is 100% correct, but also, I kind of like that the battlepass on Halo Infinite is so bad and unrewarding that it becomes pretty easy to ignore. Feels like old-school Halo where you play because playing is fun, not because you want to get further on the treadmill.

We all talked about your lights after we left the party.

Even if the bikers were in the middle of the lane, it isn’t legal to run them over.  You have to wait for a legal area with clear and safe sight lines to pass.

I have an education and some professional experience as a historian, and one of the major internal conflicts about history I always had was related to things like this.

Cops dont give a shit about cyclists or pedestrians example infinity. 

Not to downplay the importance of a woman breaking through a stupid (but very real) barrier at a legacy organization, but let’s not forget that star trek got their first. And in similar style.

This is more in line with what the forever ensign wore in Voyager:

Those uniforms concern me; yellow-shirts in TNG are like red-shirts in TOS.

I’m like 90% sure this was started by conservative incels... which seems like relevant information to include.
