It sometimes seems like there's nothing good in this country congress won't eventually destroy. The USPS was, and is, mostly an excellent organization. Only sabotage will bring it down.

Albon is one of the reasons I'm liking this season. He's obviously not in the fast car anymore, but he's getting great results and he seems happy.

I think it's an exciting season so far, as long as you ignore Max a bit. Ferrari, Mercedes, Aston Martin competing. Drivers and teams up and down the field struggling sometimes and excelling other times. Clear rules, which sometimes seem a bit silly but remove a lot of the arbitrary stewarding which I hated. Haas and Williams scoring points.

Then again watching Max is also exciting. It's Schumacher levels of dominance as he goes for every bit of pace on every race and every lap. Watching Max is watching a master athlete in his prime. That qualifying lap in Monaco was * chefs kiss *

Their first album indubitably is my favorite, obviously.

Most of the Koopa kids were named after musicians

• Wendy O. Williams from the Plasmatics
• Iggy Pop from Iggy Pop & The Stooges
• Roy Orbison, the songwriter and rock & roll legend
• Lemmy Kilmister from Motörhead
• Ludwig van Beethoven, obviously

What they really mean is: Polite to them, the people with the means of easily inflicting deadly violence upon others.

Gun ownership is just another expression of the deep selfishness ingrained in American culture.

Max is probably right but that doesn't make Spa (my favorite track!) "safe". Two deaths in 4 years is very unusual for modern motor racing. Something needs to be done with Raidillon, like automatic instant yellow flags whenever a car leaves the track.

Or maybe a speed limit through Raidillon in the rain makes sense.

Ah, yes coil split makes sense. But doesn't the angle screw with the humbucker when it's in HB mode? I've always heard humbuckers shouldn't be angled.

Ah you're right, I had assumed since it was a humbucker the two rows would be aligned straight, but now I see the coils are in line with the strings as they should be. Fascinating guitar OP. Nice work.

I'm curious why you went with the (reversed?) angle on the bridge humbucker pickup? I've never seen anything like it.

Ah I just noticed it's a lefty. But yeah, why the angled humbucker?

Toen ik m’n eerste Nokia kreeg op het middelbaar (ja, ik ben oud) mocht ‘ie ook niet de klas in. Zo’n regel lijkt me me vrij logisch.

"No one" in the US perhaps. Customers look down on retail workers, and feel free to abuse them, because they are so economically disempowered. A nation which pays retail workers a fair wage is also a nation where retail workers are treated (somewhat) better.

"Practical Engineering" is a fantastic channel. I especially appreciate all the infrastructure failure analysis videos he has done. It let me (a non civil engineer) understand why certain infrastructure disasters like collapses, power outages, or dam breaches were able to occur.
