This doesn’t mention anything about it working with any kind of large impact, though. It’s all about higher frequency vibrations from layers of sand moving around. It’s an interesting phenomenon, but jot what is being talked about.
I’ve noticed that a lot of the negative news posts are all posted by a few users. I usually check their profile, and if I see that is the type of content they almost exclusively post, I block them.
I’m generally pretty informed, like you said, so I don’t feel like it’s being willfully ignorant. A good amount of it is pretty biased as well. So I don’t feel like it’s the best way to be informed.
I’m not an expert here, but I think it’s because these words aren’t exactly plural. They are terms for groups of things, and in the way used here, they are referring to a singular group, so they are used the same as other singular nouns.
This weapon was Colt’s entry into the US Army’s Advanced Combat Rifle trials in the 1980s, a program looking for a successor to the M16A2 as the standard US service rifle....
I’m not a gun expert, but I presume it’s because pistols are mostly reciever, which is the core part of guns that houses the trigger and firing mechanism. It has a pretty similar shape among a lot of firearms. Someone more knowledgeable could correct me if I’m wrong.
Hi guys! For the past… ever, I’ve been putting my health and fitness aside. I tried a few times to get into the habit of exercising to no avail. I’m not overweight or anything but neither am I strong or flexible as I want to be. Mainly because I don’t want to have health troubles later in life. HOWEVER, to get started I...
This may be obvious, but I want to add that you should skip if you are injured. Noting that being sore from a previous workout is not the same as an injury. Also, if you are significantly sleep deprived it may be worth skipping, since you won’t be adequately recovered and that could also lead to injury. You will miss more days if you make an injury worse than if you play it safe and take time to heal. A day or two missed won’t ruin all your progress. Just don’t make up excuses.
If you happen to be on linux, there are likely guides out there for that, too. I would think there is a decent amount of overlap of people who want to play old Star Trek games and people who are interested in linux.

Andy Stott has a sound unlike any artist I’ve heard before. Really stretching what can be called techno, in my opinion. Most of his work has this very dark and brooding industrial sound to it with a bit of dub thrown in.
I’m not the best communicator while not distracted to begin with. Often struggling to verbalize a thought or find a word I can’t remember for some reason. If I am focused on talking, though, I can usually get by well enough and even be a bit witty, especially if its not face-to-face communication. However, if I’m doing...
Wait until you see the Confederate flags in PA. Ya know, where the battle of Gettysburg happened. Very much not a southern state. It’s wild seeing this shit in my neighborhood.
I’m not in a position to look into it right now, but is there a part of the EULA that gives consent to detect ad blockers, and would that be good enough for the law referenced?
The growth of remote and hybrid work during the COVID-19 pandemic showed limiting trips to the office can reduce the carbon footprint of simply working by as much as 58% in the United States.
To be clear, this is talking about reducing an individual’s carbon footprint… a drop in the bucket compared to big industry. They also mention re configuring offices to use more shared spaces and occupy less space overall by sharing office space and resources by rotating workers use of the same resources instead of having individual spaces for everyone. That apparently is about a 23% decrease for the office carbon footprint. None of this is about the total greenhouse emissions of the country like the headline sort of vaguely implies. It also requires major logistical changes that, while hopeful to think would happen, I suspect companies aren’t going to do as it requires serious restructuring of how they operate.
Now, I’m not saying that we shouldn’t try things that aren’t the perfect solution. I am just pointing out how this is just another idea that ignores the real problem. Just another thing making it seems like individuals are the problem.
I also want to be clear that I’m not against working from home.
Norway is mixed market capitalist, like most developed countries. They do have a strong welfare system, though. I’d imagine it’s similar in the other countries in the list you mention too, but I’d have to see what they are.
I pretty much agree, but I really wish we could move away from ads being literally everywhere in our lives. I’d rather them just charge a little bit more and have a better experience. It’s probably falling on deaf ears, though, because nobody ever wants to pay for anything on the internet.
You make good points. I do think maybe if we never went down this road of everything being ad supported, then it wouldn’t be this bad. It is the world we live in now, though, and I doubt there is any going back to what could have been
