I have a 6 year old electric car that takes 40ish minutes to charge, now BYD has batteries that will go from 10% to 70% in 5-10 mins.

In a few years time these drones will be getting charged from a microwave stream of power from a solar array floating in the upper atmosphere.

I’m in my 40s and when we moved into our house a few years back we had a big rain event that washed out the driveway.

I got to rent a small excavator to dig a trench and install a drain and pipe to redirect the rainfall out of a downspout to the bottom of the driveway.

It was like playing with a toy and playing with puddles but as an adult. In another life I would have been a hydrological engineer but in this one I’m just a person that gets to rent machines for fun household chores occasionally.

The Iranian video in this article is crap, the music doesn’t “slap” as the kids are saying these days.

The rap ones are pretty slick, this one was just saying people are going to become Islamic because Trump and Netanyahu suck.

GoG is probably a pretty small company, I can’t really expect them to have a full Linux support system when Linux up until Windows 10 support ended was probably a pretty small niche that is now a slightly bigger niche.

Well that Depends, he might have shit his pants but as early as The Apprentice, he reportedly would soil himself and need to be cleaned up by an assistant on set that was nicknamed Wet Wipes.

The Trump side was saying anti war things that were lies. The Harris side was saying there is no air between my policies and Joe Biden’s Israel policy.

I don’t think the numbers were massive of Arab voting for Trump but they just didn’t vote. The Dems thought that people would have no choice but to vote for a dem with Dick fucking Cheney’s daughter campaigning with her. They stayed home instead.

Just rewatched the movie last night. It is a masterpiece of a film, the shots, the music, the acting (other than Tarantino himself who was stiff) were all near perfect.

I guess the beans on toast was because my mom was Irish and heard of it through my dad and probably never used chipped beef, so did beans instead.

If we were to take them back like we probably should I feel like some Marines would be rolling in like we were a banana plantation.

Shit on a Shingle, I though that was beans on toast.

If provincial idiot won’t do it then it is on the federal government to introduce and enforce rules to benefit the citizens of the stupid areas.

I don’t, I just keep an unfinished list of unstarted/ half done tasks in my head with vague ideas of where the things I need probably were left when I last did those tasks.

It’s a carefree life until something important isn’t finished when it’s needed.

Canadian dollars only. In a trust or financial device that pays out to the government not the company. Non refundable but transferrable if you don’t end up drilling that well then it can move to another proposed well.

In case they think of asking for the money back if they clean up themselves, it still needs a third party inspection after a 5 year period to insure the clean up wasn’t half assed before payout of initial deposit. All interest goes to environmental protection agencies.

It is too late to get money from these companies if they fold, especially since they are practically created to fold as soon as the aren’t getting the expected return on investment.

Prepaying is the only way to make sure they are responsible. If it leads to them not starting as many wells then they are only proving that they weren’t planning on cleaning up afterwards to begin with.

A .22 with low velocity bullets would be quiet enough to be unnoticed. Lenses can be treated with hydrophobic coatings to shed paint. A bullet to the camera or battery area would be much more expensive to fix.

Each and every well should not be started until a trust is set up with the cost of cleanup deposited in it. Once the company quits the well from either it drying up or the company going under, the trust is given to the government including the interest to pay for cleanup.

Not one shovel should hit soil until the cleanup is already prepaid.

Sorry Iranian Jews, maybe come to Israel, where we have the only safe place for Jews in the Middle East. Israel is the only place Israel won’t bomb (unless there is a Palestinian in proximity.)

Well my grandfather was Irish but also my mother was born in Ireland so it is either a parent or grandparent option.

Wait so it is better for my partner if I get my EU citizenship through Ireland then get married than to get married before citizenship?

I was going to work on getting my Irish citizenship, though the thought of many American going there makes Ireland less attractive.
