“I can maybe take a bullet or three” sounded like such over the top bravado I was hoping it was meant tongue in cheek.

Don’t get me wrong though I was just commenting on that sentence. I am not meaning to undermine your point about police and their (lack of) aim.

Holy smokes I had a bad gut feeling from the little I had seen of the game and some comments others have made but I had no idea the extent of the company’s depravity. Thank you so much for posting the videos these were very helpful.

/s?

Even if it ends up NOT being ankylosing spondylitis exactly - you should know that there are some hereditary factors that predispose to AS but also to other, similar conditions which are collectively called “inflammatory spondyloarthropathies.” Given your brother’s diagnosis you probably have a higher chance of one of these conditions because of your shared genetics. So yeah absolutely ask another physician until someone investigates your symptoms!

It’s really interesting to me that you have provided this additional clue because ankylosing spondylitis was literally the first thing that popped into my head reading your story. I agree with others that your story sounds much more than typical aging symptoms and you should seek the opinion of another physician.

Apparently posted a video about how to avoid ads on YouTube using adblockers, etc.

But how the information was presented matters, especially when people are unfamiliar with the topic.

For what it’s worth, the game is hugely improved since release. I have been playing through a second time the past few weeks and it’s been great. The game has lots of atmosphere. Definitely pick up Phantom Liberty if you are starting a new game and play it as you play the regular game - it’s much better done concurrently with the main story than as a tag on at the end.

He wouldn’t admit it. He would find something to blame on Vance (probably wouldn’t be a strain) and then “You’re Fired!” and the red hats would chuckle and never miss a beat.

I thought the data showed Montreal definitively hates Alberta AND the rest of Canada.

Seriously need some other options. I think Dodge’s upcoming Ramcharger looks promising and I’m surprised more truck manufacturers haven’t tried to design vehicles that are electric with a generator backup to extend range. Come on, Ford. I would say come on GMC but they took out CarPlay.

No going off-grid is a substantially larger investment than most people can afford. To be off grid you have to be able to make enough electricity even on cloudy, short winter days. That means your system must be massively oversized for your needs during most of the year. You also need adequate batteries to store energy for overnight.

Instead people get enough solar to offset some or all of the electricity they use - but on average over time. So they produce a ton during the day and then draw from grid at night.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. Overall I agree heavily with what you are saying. I really was hoping for the feeling of whiplash when Biden took office because I expected him to drop like 20 executive orders on day 1 to undo the worst of the worst Trump shit. No reason not to have that shift drafted and ready to go before inauguration. But it didn’t really play out that way.

I hope hope hope that if they manage to take back the White House and Congress that the democrats have an agenda ready to rock and roll because that otherwise it’s hard to maintain enthusiasm from the public when it seems like not much is happening.

It partially depends on lifestyle. I also have a 310 mile range and find that it’s really challenging to plan remote hiking / camping trips due to lack of infrastructure.

Interesting read, thanks for sharing.

It does compute if you realize the buyers were probably foreign governments and businesses. If Trump suddenly gets a $3M check from someone that might raise eyebrows, leak to press, get picked up by law enforcement. Trump makes $3M in sales of an imaginary thing online - well that’s just business.

The UK is Marxist in culture.

lol

Do you have scoliosis?

So there are lots of cultural and societal reasons that a woman won’t want to be topless in public. But it shouldn’t ALSO be a crime which is the point of this, right?

Tl;dr is that this is tech developed a while back but has previously not been affordable to put into consumer devices. It will allow for higher brightness levels without putting as much strain on the screen or as much of a power drain.

Sounds fantastic!
