naw. that's when legality needs less cowbell
That is the articles headline, and you’ll note I explained that, still the headline,
I have access to a cleaning/cutting/welding laser. I would like to do the vertical cut.... that too is for science....

Biden won’t either, because he’s already proved he can win this race and you don’t retire a winning horse.
this isn't 2020. it's 2024, and a different race. Trump has had 4 years to retcon (or rather double down?) on his reputation. (whatever, he's had four years to shore up his support.). Further, in 2020... the war in ukraine hadn't started yet, neither had the Israeli genocide in gaza; the Pandemic was still on-going (and trump was fucking up left right and center on that.)
the point being, the circumstances are different and Biden has a lot of baggage he's carrying- especially lately with Gaza. As they say in stocks: Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.
It's going to be a battle, and I'm not sure Biden can win.
That said, Trump belongs in jail. (or the grave. I make exceptions for certain things. like being a rapist pedophile traitor.)
In a sane world, that should be enough for a cardboard cut out of Yogi Bear to win. I used to think that Princess Amidala being 14 and the planetary head of state was hilariously unrealistic, yet here we are hoping to elect an asshole that supports genocide because the other guy is a cartoon villain that would happily genocide his own citizens because they didn't let him do his pedophile-rape thing. It's the kind of plot Palpatine would appreciate.
But she is a racist.
And that’s not a quote. That’s a “quote”
Prisoners have rights? As the last constitutionally protected form of slaves?
And yes. It’s wrong.
I just think if we solve the larger problem this won’t be an issue.
Right or wrong, the whole point of incarceration is removing freedoms as punitive punishment for committing crimes.
Probation, supervised release, it’s not the same as having served the sentence (and therefore gaining most rights back,). For example, a pedophile is probably going to never be allowed to work around kids and doing so on probation or sup. release is going to see them sent back into jail.
What's hilarious is that they don't really do all that much training anymore.
They just hire people who already have the skills. or tell people to "figure it out". They might pay you to go to a conference or something to improve skills... if those skills are hard to come by. It's a cost benefit analysis, and new-hires are generally cheaper.
Or are people already doing that and just not getting caught?
this is actually boring. Drugs in tacos? Funny. Drugs in grandma's UHAUL? well it depends on the grandma.
I’ve found This KAF recipe to always work.
You can leave the caramel and nuts off, and I prefer to add ~1-2 extra tablespoons of cinnamon to the filling. And some extra butter+sugar to make it extra cinnamony when I do.
(For the record… I’m not paid or anything, but KAF is a flour maker, and they have a lot of wonderful recipes. And if something fails or you have a question… they’ve a hotline with their test bakers…for free.)
Edit: I usually top with an American buttercream- vanilla with just a drop of almond extract.(softened butter, 1 stick, add powdered sugar and milk until it’s light and fluffy whipped at high speed. More sugar makes it more airy, more milk and butter denser)(it’s a very flexible frosting. Chocolate, coffee. You name it. Also if you need a crisp white or brilliant colors; use crisco- but it tastes gross in comparison….)
There’s a bit of devil and and a bit of goofball in all of us. Also some saint to make us look neurotic.
I could offer a diagnosis.

Hey! You get what you pay for (that’ll be three cookies and a glass of pasteurized milk.)

Why bag the hydrant?
Saw this going to a friend’s house- they bagged the fire hydrants….one thought was snow; but this is the first year apparently. And snow has been a mild issue this year compared to most.
[joke]Broke out grandma’s candy thermometer….
Gotta ask, what kinda candy was she making? Soft crack. Hard crack. Pot….
Even has the donuts on there for, you know, dealing with the munchies.
[question] for the chemistry types- making chicken soup. Why did lemon juice turn the light brown chicken stock almost white?
Okay, so I was making chicken soup from stock I had made using a (lightly,) browned carcus and neck. just before dumping the the dumplings into it, the stock's color was a nice light brown. I added about 1/4 cup of lemon juice, turned my back for 30 seconds after a stir and it turned it an almost milky-off white. Eventually it deepened to this:
It's delicious, and tastes as expected, I'm just curious as to what happened in the broth's chemistry?
Seasoned with salt (duh), a sprig of thyme, some ginger and garlic, (just a hint of ginger,) black pepper, lemon zest (which was added with the torn chicken,) and white wine deglazed the pot from browning the dark meat.
The stock was from garlic, onion, celery, carrot and maybe ginger scraps cooked with the chicken carcass..
linear rail upgrades, looking for feed back.
Due to reasons... I've "adopted" a CR10s that a friend had bought. It was used, and was already well on it's way to being a janky Printer of Theseus. My hope is to get it up and running and put through it's paces before the holidays so I can give it back as a gift.
With the linear rail upgrades, I picked up the hardware and it's on it's way; which got me looking at how to do the upgrade, which I have mostly figured out; the question I'm having is, most upgrades seem to place the rails on 2020 extrusions sitting on top of the base frame- same as how the original y axis 2040's were designed.
Which raises the question- why not lower it so the 2020 rails are even with the frame, with the mgn12 rail sitting on top? Like so:
The short answer I came to is this would necessitate replacing the brackets for the y stepper motor and it's idler; but it should be possible. the easiest solution would be something like:
which raises the question: are printed parts rigid enough to hold against the tension on the belts? The motors can't handle too much tension anyhow, and the printer already has the screw-cap tensioners for x and y printed that seem to have been holding up well.
has anybody replaced the OG metal bracket on the back? does it stress and need replacing often, or is it fairly reliable (and above all, consistent,)
UC security cops are literally the worst.
I mean, like incompetent. For the record those organs I just stole? literally on the desk in front of him. Time to hike on over and sell it. To the Trade Authority.... all 20 feet away...

Car wash: touchless or soft touch?
Which do you use and why? Which one gets it cleaner. If it matters we have “real” winters here, meaning snow cruft and salt that absolutely must be removed.
Edit to clarify: I’m talking about a choice in automated car washes- not hand washing cars. Seems people are getting confused. Touchless is a few passes with a pressure washer. Soft touch adds spinning car-wash brush things.
[HSW] well, that was entirely preventable

Ship building question
Okay, so, with structural modules- specifically the cowl/belly/hull modules you can slap in... aside from the trivial gains to hull, are they basically just for attachment points/decoration?
could i protect things that can be targeted- the weapons, shields, engines, and grav drive- by placing 'under' hull components? or does that just not matter?
