If we were to actually get involved, kick it off with an A-10 singing the song of it's people, and eliminate all russian forces in Ukraine in no greater than 24 hours.
If you're not willing to do that then just stay home, we've seen how the 'slow war' style goes.
To accelerate a vehicle we need to put kinetic energy into it and Power is the measure of how fast we can do that.
From a technical capability standpoint, torque is a useless measure. With a motor of a given power you can always gear it up or down to whatever torque you need (assuming a lossless transmission system).
If we take two identical trucks with 10k lb trailers on them and one's a 800ft-lb diesel and one's a 300ft-lb gas, both with 400hp, they sould realisticly accelerate and climb a hill at the same rate. The diference is the gas engine will be screaming at 6/7/8000 rpm and guzzling gas. (This also assumes no other factors like heat cone into play, the gas may not be able to maintain as much power due to cooling system designs or other factors).
Torquey-er engines also tend to feel better from a driveability standpoint but that's not representative of capability.
I believe the Government has to accept cash for any charges, but private companies have to accept cash for debts. Like if your car gets towed, the tow company must accept cash, even if it's all pennies.
One on the left is probably a closet (notice it doesn't extend past that wall to the left). The one on the right might be a half-room/powder room (notice in the corner of the room to the right it kinda pops out, meaning that room extends that far).
If I ever have a house with something weird like this I want to get some RC train sets and put a bunch of Inglenook Sidings/shunting puzzles there that you can control from where the photo was taken.
It's sort of like gridlock but you have to get train cars moved to the right places with limited room.
The head of Russia’s parliament said he plans to submit legislation next week that would allow the state to seize the property of “scoundrels” who criticize the war in Ukraine....
Microwave is going to be just as fast for quickly heating up a small amount of water, stove is plenty quick for larger amounts but I have an induction stove so it's extremely quick. If you look away, it WILL boil over. I don't see how a kettle could be quicker than my stove for the same quantity even if I had a 240v kettle, the stove is 240v but has a 50 Amp connection, compared to the 15 or 20 that a kettle would get.
Having a kettle would be one more item to clean, store and have counterspace for.
Also if someone really wanted (and it made much of a difference) you can get 240v outlets put in here. Like I said, the stove has 240v so you could probably tap into that circuit to retro-fit. But I'm not convinced it's any quicker, or easier than just microwaving it or using the stove, so nobody puts those in.
Also, like the other person I've never had a pyrex handle heat up, and even with regular mugs put in there it only heats up from the food being in it, not being heated my the microwave.
If Kenneth Eugene Smith is brought to the Alabama death chamber to face execution next week for his role in the 1988 murder-for-hire of a pastor’s wife, the state plans to use an untested and untried method to end his life, suffocating him with a stream of nitrogen gas to be delivered through a face mask....
Euphoria and warmth are two really common symptoms of hypoxia.
But even then people who have dies in confined, oxygen-deficient environments, as long as they aren't high CO2, don't even realize anything is up until they pass out.
