Well this is a krieg 3d print I composited to have a “power shovel”.
Power Shovels do not exist anywhere in canon lore, but there’s no lore reason a shovel cannot be made into a power weapon.
A normal shovel is a meme regarding Krieg. It does not have much basis in lore.
Krieg were famous for trench warfare. Trenches are dug with shovels. Memes about them fighting with shovels ensued.
I decided to take the gag a step further, by printing and painting power shovels for all the power weapons in my army.
In my homebrew lore, they’re from a planet that specialized in ship breaking, and they first used power shovels to dig furrows in adamantium prows so they could be broken and re-processed.
In today’s episode, commander Sisko grapples with the effects of the war and how far his morality can be stretched in the name of the greater good. Meanwhile, O’Brien has a winning streak at darts.

I use Jellyfin on Roku because my Samsung TV was too old for it.
It sucks on Roku.
I have not figured out the pattern for why some UHD videos don’t play remotely while others do, only that debugging it is fiendishly difficult since it all works fine locally.
If you ever resume a video, the subtitles are out of sync. And I haven’t found a way to adjust them.
Some videos with certain encodings play only on the PC app, but not Roku or Android.
For that matter Android is basically there to just easily download a copy, I don’t even bother trying to play with it.
The US public has repeatedly demonstrated that it would rather die than make even minor adjustments in their lives. So don’t expect anything to get done.
In the late Friday filing, Trump argued that prosecutors want the trial held “in darkness” as part of what he claims is a politically motivated effort by President Joe Biden’s administration to undermine his bid for re-election next year....
A stance of “Both sides are bad” is just a stance that favors the Status Quo.
The underdog needs the extra assistance, the superior doesn’t.
So for that reason I’m pro-Israel, don’t want either side winning, don’t want aid to either side, so that defaults to a pro-Israel stance.
I’m comfortable being labeled as such.

You mistake is assuming the law is being applied in good faith.
Of course hailing a tram is obviously different than a Nazi salute to anyone.
But the objective is not to detect Nazis , it’s to find an excuse to harass and intimidate people.
This is just another tool in their belt.
With a new law, you should always think of how it’s going to be like if applied by the most bigoted racist police officer in existence. And what mechanisms you have in place to stop that officer.
After much contemplation, he (Akira Toriyama ) could not decide on a name for his “Kame” attack, so he asked his wife (Nachi Mikami), who came up with the name.[12] She told Akira that it would be easy to remember the name of the attack if he used the name of the cultural Hawaiian king named Kamehameha (lit. “the very lonely one” or “the one set apart” in Hawaiian language).

Finally got my knights army fully assembled and primed, just in time to take a nerfbat to the face.
I’ve had a plan for a lance of BattleTech mechs running around my head for a while. The Warhammer you see there is the start/centerpiece. Going to be printing out some 28mm scale Locusts next.
