If we're being pedantic about it, fully replacing smoking with pouches means they technically have quit smoking, but not quit nicotine.

Deserved or not, they seem to be throwing the china branch under the bus. Seems like a pretty standard case of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing, if the HQ is to be believed. It seems reasonable that a Canadian company would leave marketing decisions up to the local Chinese branch; just give them a budget & really on their local/cultural expertise.

That's the problem, his wife won't sit on it, so he fucks couches instead

I always assumed replicator food was identical every time because the ship's "recipe book" is just a giant pattern buffer. It's always the same so it's easy to tell the difference from home made since there's always a little variability. You can't copy a person in the pattern buffer since that's illegal cloning, but copying anything from a coffee to a car is totally fine as long as your pattern buffer and replicator is large enough.

I could be wrong but it looks like MDF (medium density fiberboard)

You're close, hardboard is HDF (high density fiberboard). It may not swell as much as MDF, but water would probably leach glue and stain the canvas, or make it flopsy since it's so thin.

Ah I guess I assumed HBO Max got it at the same time as the digital download that was released August 15th for Apple tv & Amazon prime.

Yes, this one is from 1851 and was later used in 12 Years a Slave. You may be unaware, but American policing was born from the roots of slave catching.

Huh, I thought they'd take a hit since they released it to HBO Max like a month ago due to overlap with the pacemaker tv show.

Close, but this is a hyperbaric oxygen chamber, not a hyperbolic time chamber

Yup:

The claims were later found to be false, and McClain was cleared.[28] On April 7, 2020, Worden was indicted on two charges of making false statements.

Still, I agree that data should be used to make that determination. My point was that we already see harm in having inexperience riders on e-bikes. My assumption is that lowering the skill barrier even further would likely have a negative impact.

And see my assumption is that inexperienced riders (and the public at large) would benefit from automatic gear changes, as that's one less distraction for the low skilled.

I really don't think the transmission is a skill barrier to riders of ebikes though, as the motor assistance helps negate a poor choice of gear.

The stray we took in 8 weeks ago was yowling all morning, and we couldn't figure out why.

 

Up to 1200w can be back-fed into the 120v sockets in normal homes. No net metering or other permission required, as long as it meets UL/NEC standards.

 

Is there a way to post gifs? When I try to use gboards gifs it says I can't put an image in the post
