Picked this up last week for a grand... couldn't pass it up. Holy crap it has a lot of tweakability. There's a bit of a learning curve to getting good sounds out of it, but damn does it sound nice once it's dialed in.

I think this is the whole point. Riders were asking more of the boards than the boards could do, and when the board was unable to comply the rider would lose their balance. Haptic feedback tells the rider "nah, not doing that" so they're aware the board isn't going to do the thing and can adjust their balance accordingly.
“Market prices for this new housing are likely to far exceed the already high prices that existed in Lahaina before the fire. For renters, the old housing stock that was destroyed provided opportunities for reasonable rents,”
I think this is the issue. Poor folks live in older buildings. Can't rebuild new old, run-down cheap neighborhoods.

benefits like park passes are unethical.
Wtf. Perks are win-win. It's a trivial expense to allow employees to use existing company assets, but it's very valuable to the employees. Boss gets happy employees for less expense. Both sides are happy. No, that's bad because:
"Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God," the passage began. "And those which exist are established by God. Therefore, whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves."
Ok, I didn't see anything about perks there, but this logic supports gassing Jews (what the local authority wanted) and condemns smuggling them out of Germany (opposing God apparently).
My dad (silent generation): Back in my day, a guy could get a job at a gas station and be able to own a house and support a stay-at-home wife and kids. I dunno how you kids make it.
Me (gen X): Back in my day, a guy could get a job at a gas station and afford rent and food. I dunno how you kids make it.
I'm not sure when the guy in the comic was born. Medieval times maybe? Because economic conditions for working class folks have been getting steadily worse for the entire lifespan of everyone alive today, at least in the US.
Playing music. Started on a shitty hand-me-down acoustic guitar. Got a better guitar. Got an electric. Got a better amp. Got a couple of pedals. Got a better amp. Got like 6 more amps, some cabs, 5 more guitars, a huge pedalboard, a cello, a keyboard, an audio interface, attenuators, mics, etc etc.
You gotta understand... I need all this stuff. There are subtle differences that you've never noticed before but will probably hear once I do an a/b comparison for you, and I absolutely must get an AC15 next to round out the collection instead of buckling down and recording something.
Calling everything racist isn't helpful. This song is a poor man's cry for economic justice, and instead of saying "yeah, that's the 1% we've been complaining about, come over to our side," the left calls it racist because it has Southern imagery in it.
Yeah, it's really bad. When I sort by Newest, the majority of my feed is spam trash from this community. Don't want to block the community, but if it doesn't improve I probably will.

Just seven years ago, Donald Trump became the first Republican presidential candidate to win Michigan since George H.W. Bush.

Once upon a time, Republican leadership were smart but evil people who fed lies to their base but understood that they were lying. Since they weren't actually delusional, they could choose the most politically useful lies and abandon the ones that didn't poll well.
Enough people believed their lies that the new generation of Republicans are True Believers. They've lost the ability to tailor their message to the political climate because it's no longer seen as just a bunch of crap to please the base, but TRUTH. Except that it's not actually true, so their policies fail.
This is the inevitable result of governing through falsehood. Objective reality can not be gaslit, and abandoning it never works out well long-term.

Are you aware that the "election rigging" claims have been tried in court literally dozens of times, and the evidence has been found lacking every time?
Are you aware that Fox lost a massive defamation lawsuit for reporting on "election rigging," which they would have won if they had evidence to support their claims?
I want the actual reviews so I have at least some chance of figuring out if the reviewer is a bot, a shill, a customer, or is reviewing the UPS guy instead of the product.
Donald Trump was found liable for sexually abusing and defaming E. Jean Carroll
From Cornell Law School's web site:
A party is liable when they are held legally responsible for something. Unlike in criminal cases, where a defendant could be found guilty, a defendant in a civil case risks only liability
At no point in the article you linked did the Judge say that Trump was "found guilty" of anything. Trump has no crime on his criminal record.
The judge in the article says that Trump was found to have raped Carroll, but acknowledged that there is "a legal distinction" between liability and guilt.
I'm not trying to defend Trump here, or argue that he didn't do what he was found to have done, just pointing out that there is a difference between "found guilty of rape" and what actually happened.
