When they say they can't afford to forgive student loans, this is what they mean. This is where the money went. A trillion each year into the military that can't say where the money went and fails the audit each year.
In a semi truck?
I'll give you a BIFL answer that's not super heavy on performance. I'll assume your primary goal is commuting or some light exercise.
- Stay away from carbon fibre. Stick to aluminium or better yet, steel.
- Choose a bike that has a fanbase. For example Bromptons or Surlys are expensive for what they are but you can maintain them for a lifetime.
- Stay away from the cheapest bikes. If you're going for a low budget bike try to stick with a mainstream reputed bike brand like Giant.
- A belt drive is more hassle free if you have the budget.
In what way? If it's the bumpers and the crumple zone, then that's a feature. Do you have a picture about what you are talking about? I'm curious.
And his bank account balance is not low enough.
It's always a combination of the two.
Instead the entire area will be turned into glass under Kamela but hey, she had good intentions! Unlike Trump who would have lead to the same outcome but he wouldn't have those good intentions.
Thats exactly right. It's also the reason why grass lawns came to existence.

Wow so complex! Wonder what need to happen.
You're a dumbass and I'm certain you're just like your namesake, I have so much more to say were it not for the fact that I'm extremely busy with important stuff!
If the US cares about democracy and human rights, they should support Palestine and Ukraine.
If you want a new car and you want it to be electric, I'd go with a small car made by Hyundai or BYD.
That's the most sensible purchase financially and environmentally imo.
But if you inhale through the mouth as the alternative, you'll directly track the viral load to the lungs which also had mucus and the viral load would multiply there instead. So take your pick. At least the nasal passage has some defences.
This is just pro Israeli propaganda. This specific conflict started in 1948. The whole UN has voted against Isreal. And you're telling me that that region will have all out war if Israeli troops stopped killing children? GTF outta here.
Both the two major parties do. But the third party isn't accused yet. To put into perspective he's exactly like Bernie Sanders if he got the candidacy instead of Hilary.
Learn from Sri Lanka. For the first time ever they got a president from the third party. In the last presidential election he got 3%. Not thirty, three! This time he got 55%. Goes to show how fed up the people were with the system.
Include police and it's still majority white American males.
"Damaging equipment" is just nonsense. I've got an off-grid solar system. When the battery is fully charged the solar panels simply stops producing. It has potential (voltage) but no current until you draw power. Just like a battery is full of energy but it just sits there until you draw power from it.
All solar systems could have smart switches to intelligently disconnect from the grid as needed, some inverter already do this automatically. So it's not a technical problem. It's a political problem.
Too heavy, and too big. This is compared to an automotive battery though. They take up the size of something like a fridge. They are also expensive but prices are bound to come down once production is up. But they have claimed zero capacity degradation for decades they say. And the liquid inside is a fire retardant, so if you puncture a battery that would actually put out the fire.
There are number of videos on YouTube, it's an interesting technology.

What Are Some Great Films Not Adapted from Books?
When films are adapted from books, more often than not, I tend to find the books a lot more enjoyable. So I have skipped watching a lot of films in the hope of reading the books later.
So what are some great films not adapted from books? Or what are some films that are significantly better than the book they were adapted from?

A political faction cancels a rail project citing,
- Costs
- Not having enough stops
- Noise etc.
Then proposes a worse project or more highways. Does this sound familiar? I urge you to watch this video because there are many parallels between this Canadian tale and the now cancelled Colombo light rail project. There maybe lessons we can learn from Canada.

From 3:18, CNBC reports that taxes from oil is not enough to repair roads and general federal revenue provides funds. That means that everyone is subsidizing car usage.
If there were reduced car usage, infrastructure wouldn't have decayed at this rate. Ever increasing weight of trucks, SUVs other trending vehicle do nothing but accelerate this problem. This is another reason to tax vehicles by weight.
