How do you feel about square drive? I'm no carpenter, just someone that's done enough work around the house, but I've found that Torx are the best option but square is a close second (but I don't think I've used them in any especially high torque situations, and they may fall short there).

I find it interesting that with ASD, there is (apparently, from this discussion), a tendency to be concise to the point of meaning being potentially lost but explains as quickly as possible, while with ADHD (which I have), there is a tendency to over-explain and be too verbose. With ADHD, we tend to worry that our thoughts aren't clear enough for others and go to great lengths to make sure our meaning is understood, which has its own problems (like people getting exhausted with us for our long windedness).

I'm pretty sure the minimum ASVAB score is like 30. I'm pretty sure you could get that by randomly guessing on most of it. I try not to be too harsh in my judgements of the less intelligent but holy fuck do you have to be dumb to be fully disqualified.

This is also why regulatory agencies have been systematically crippled over the last 40 years or so. Damn near every sector has had their regulatory agencies crippled by some combination of reducing authority, underfunding, and understaffing. When the agencies work, the message is "see, we don't need those regulations anymore because we're taking care of things fine on our own," and when they stop working, the message is "we shouldn't be spending money on these agencies! They don't do anything anyway!"

The woman being harassed by this company and the police is the only that's 39. The article doesn't mention the founder's age, and he definitely looks older than 39 from a quick search.

That account was a parody account...

Honestly, the question I'd like answered is at what age did they realize that they wanted to be a dragon.

There's a combination of anti-regulation sentiments and poverty. Rural towns in particular have a lot of old ass beaters driving around and people don't have the income to fix or replace those vehicles. But yeah, that's also where you get a lot of the "gub'ment can take it from my cold dead hands" types of attitudes, even (especially?) when it's for the safety and well-being of people. Hell people fought restaurant smoking laws up until the early 2010's, and some states still have no helmet law for motorcycles.

Many states (and presumably many countries) done have safety inspections. In the Midwest there are tons of old vehicles that would never pass an inspection out on the road

Better idea: take that ice cream, put it in a mug and pour a shot of espresso over it. Bam, you've got an affogato (an Italian dessert drink).

Stupid people.

One of the few successful fan wikis that got away from fandom has been the Path of Exile community. I don't play the game anymore because it just got to be too much for me and demand too much time, but I really appreciate that they collectively got pissed enough at fandom that they made sure that poewiki.net took off.

Edit: even better, the developers (Grinding Gear Games) apparently agreed to take over hosting of the wiki about a year ago so that the community members that started it didn't have to deal with the financial burden. Definitely a good idea for them to take over hosting so there's no concern of the owners taking a valuable resource offline.
