Did TMNT get developed because of toy companies…

TMNT was a comic book series in the 80s, long before the first movie and the cartoons that followed.

More likely one reason… a combination of both.

poorly programmed algorithms

“Intentionally programmed algorithms”… ftfy

I’m guessing you might be able to install VeraCrypt through the Microsoft Store, and if so receive update notifications.

It’s very old… decades, and when talking about EVs and hybrids, an obviously quick way to reference conventional gas engine vehicles. The term is just unfortunately carrying some more recent baggage.

The problem is tracking you provides them revenue since they can sell the data, so they make more money with a vehicle that tracks you vs one that doesn’t. A non-tracking vehicle is less competitive if it has to be sold for the same or less money than one that tracks you.

Can you really give him credit for that one though? He waited far too long until it was pretty certain someone else was going to do it any day now. He was even a loser in the one good thing he did.

Anyone that’s not had the joy of playing with a ferret have missed out.

That’s the genius of it

I think you meant perl.

I have 2 herniated disks from about 15 years ago… between c5 & c6 and c6 & c7. Worst pain of my life and when I first learned the wonder of oxy.

There is hope and believe it or not, if you strengthen your back you’re much less likely to experience pain and issues. I started lifting almost 10 years ago now, and heavy lifting at that. I was worried what squatting with a heavy bar on my back might do though. Learned good form - this is key - and in strengthening my back I’m virtually pain free now. Little things never hurt it.

Talk to a PT or other professional who knows your particular issues about strength training before you start, and as I said learn good lifting form. My ortho has encouraged me to keep it up… my PT too. It’ll change your life for the better.

I mean this is a good reason to switch back to cash. I never carry cash but I think I’m going to start for this reason alone.

Correct… teens alone are too small of a market.

Your dad would be proud!

I’m that guy, or i was like 25 years ago!

He had long historical ties to the Russian mob, mostly through real estate transactions in both New York and Florida, all before he was President. NYT did stories on this and found lots of supporting info. Imagine what the FBI could dig up if motivated.

And it’s seriously frustrating when it’s a bathroom with no paper towels and no way to open the door without using your hands.

Dude I just saw you holding your dick in your hands and you walk right to the door and leave, and now I gotta touch the damn door handle!

There are no fiscal conservatives in the party… either party really. Everyone is afraid to vote for raising taxes, even if it only impacts the super-wealthy, but they will vote for eliminating or reducing taxes even if it drives up the deficit astronomically.

The fiscally conservative thing to do would be to increase taxes on the wealthy to eliminate the deficit but I can’t imagine how we’ll ever get there.

If our grid can take on data centers, we can handle EVs my dude.

Thank you for such a detailed explanation!
