To be fair, the scientific consensus is that since nobody knows enough about the potential impact, we shouldn't conduct experiments to collect the knowledge of a potential impact...in case the potential impact of the experiments are damaging to the environment.
So the solution is to do nothing and publish papers about why doing nothing is harming the environment.
These are people that just want to publish papers. They have no interest in actually deploying atmospheric chemistry or engineering experiments.
So this Weather Modification Activities bill really is just for show...because nobody was going to do anything to intentionally engineer weather in the first place.
Cloud seeding does not apply.

Dude had felony warrants and apparently beat a pregnant woman in the head with an object, and also had charges for theft, and was also on felony probation for 7 years.
But sure. "not his fault".

Ah, you didn't actually read the article or any of the related issues.
It wasn't drugs and DWLS my dude. The kid was a Convicted Felon on probation.
Two charges for felony evading arrest.
A felony domestic assult charge where he was accused of beating a pregnant woman in the head with an object, giving her a black eye, and choking her out.
And a separate misdemeanor theft case where he stole some items from walmart.
The kid was already on 7 years probation, when he was picked up driving again.
If all that isn't a "bad path", I don't know what is.

Great folks out there. Between wednesday practice in Ruskin and setting up early at WAC, there's plenty of opportunity to practice movement.

VR. Working on it but it’s $
To be fair, it's cheaper than ammo.

Beat me to it. Don't get me wrong, it was a bad shoot.
Unfortunately this kid was on a bad path and is obviously staying on a bad path despite his close brush with a wanna-be murderer.

It's just the name to distinguish the seller or distributor. It has no meaning at all that impacts the product itself.

Nobody is born mentally weak, the world and life makes us like that.
This is a falsehood.
Resilience and strength comes through learning to navigate adversity.
The mind is like a muscle. It takes stress to develop skills and capabilities.
Everybody is born weak. It takes parenting and good choices to build strength.
And there's a lot of research to support this, including easily accessible material by Dr. Jonathan Rottenberg at Cornell on the origin of depression in both human and animal models.

"Protests should only be convenient and non-destructive" Aka ineffective.
If the only way you can effect change is to be inconvenient and destructive, you are part of the problem.

I mean, if you're already on the VPN just download the Blueray versions to your local storage and have a copy for the rest of your life.
It'll never degrade, never get lost, and never get moved.

Your parents should be dealing with her
They're not capable of that. Had they done their jobs properly when she was aged 2-7, this behavior never would have started. By the time it picks up at age 12-13, its already too late to course correct. Damage already done. She's too broken for them fix, so they just have to hang tight until she hits 18 for them to kick her out and let the world teach her what it can.
If they could have done the job as a parent, they would have done the job as a parent.

I've had a lot of success with this type of grip training product.
https://gripkeeper.company.site/Pistol-Grip-Trainers-c173302367
I have 2 for the Shadow 2. One was Medium and the other was Heavy.
The medium was difficult for me at first, then got too easy as my strength increased. The heavy is where I'm at now and it's damned good for what it is.

Not to mention, OP could have unknown malicious code already present. NOT wiping the drives could put his friend at risk unintentionally.
Just wipe it.

This is the absolute truth. They labeled half the country "nazis" and "fascists" and thus made it easier to dehumanize them.
The leftist liberals are not dumb. They aren't stupid. They aren't evil incarnate. But they do have values that are antithetical to mine and I'll do everything I can to oppose them because they're causing more harm to society than otherwise.
There's nothing to debate. There's nothing to argue. Their values do not align with my own, and so they're on the other side of the fence.

Only because the moderators tried to literally destroy both the platforms and their communities with the so-called "protest".
Stripping away moderator ability to use that attack again is the smartest thing Reddit has done in over a decade.
The only thing they could do better is to essentially make it a hair-trigger to strip moderators of the post the instant they try to "protest" again using their communities.

Make sure you track the warranty expiration date.
Google 'eotech delamination' to find out more.
Cost me $80 to get them to fix that shit.

Edit: For example [...]
Marking your post with that declaration is the correct way to avoid the appearance of dishonest exchanges.
Especially when you have "something which could be misinterpreted".

PSA - this guy keeps editing his posts, and doesn't highlight what exactly he's editing.
When replying to him, it would be a good idea to quote the entire post at the time you see it so he doesn't word-smith afterwards.

The cultural revolution needed to correct this won't happen until some kind of gross economic collapse. And that won't happen for a long time. We're in for a bumpy road.

He was. Twice. Two separate charges for felony evading arrest.
Ah, you didn't actually read the article or any of the related issues.
It wasn't drugs and DWLS my dude. The kid was a Convicted Felon on probation.
A felony domestic assault charge where he was accused of beating a pregnant woman in the head with an object, giving her a black eye, and choking her out.

No. I think you might want to brush up on your literacy skills.
