But… Why?


X10? Holy hell there’s a name I haven’t heard in a while…


Where to start…


You’re moving a partition…


Waymo calls the cops on someone for carrying a gun, which is (generally) legal.
No way Waymo could know if it’s a “ghost gun” - it assumed the person was illegally carrying a gun.
Can’t wait for Waymo to do this to someone with a CC permit and the cameras caught a glimpse of a gun. Waymo will get their ass sued off for that.
Nice.
Even better with a little sour cream!


Are you going to pay to change the entire electrical grid, rewire every house, replace every appliance, etc.
It would be an unimaginably massive undertaking for very little gain.
The US electrical system was well-established when Europe had to rebuild post-WWII.


Not in the US.
US dishwashers run on a 15 Amp circuit so don’t have a preheat for the first wash. The heater is too slow.


It’s because I have never seen a dishwasher in the US designed for a high current circuit.
The standard is a single dedicated 15amp circuit for the dishwasher, because the standard dishwasher is designed to use the house hot water, so doesn’t need a larger circuit for a water heat cycle at the start.
Since US homes have a built-in, stable hot water supply, why would you build further pre-heat into a dishwasher?
It has fuck all to do with the water supply,


Shaka, when the walls fell


Yep.
I have a handful of ancient, beatup dumbbells. So much you can do with even that.


Had that exact phone in our kitchen growing up
Well, not it you don’t even try, duh! 🤪

I totally misread the title - I thought it meant it (finally) left that airport for it’s final destination (like a museum or something).
Hahaha
It’s fallen out of favor in the fantasy realm because they’re not about the fantasy realm - they’re about the main character’s struggles with determining what’s real, and grappling with his own morality and cynicism. It’s about him, not the world.
It doesn’t spoon-feed a completed world. Frankly I find this vastly more interesting than Tolkien, where everything is completed and all the answers are handed to the reader. With Donaldson, you’re left to ponder what’s real, what’s valid, what’s truly important.


I’m in the other side of the hill, and I still despise washing dishes.
But I recognize I’m atypical, so you got my upvote.

Or Corinthian Leather of it’s a Chrysler! Haha
You’d be surprised at how much everything relies on oil.
Nearly every plastic. Every circuit board. Pick something, and part of it is made from oil.
Solar panels. Windmills.
People act like energy is the only thing reliant on oil.
