So they shot at the truck but hit several bystanders, then let the U-haul drive away where the guy simply parked it down the block and walked away? This sounds like the ICE shooting in Chicago where they shot a woman after accusing her of pulling a gun on them but didnt bother to arrest her and released her to “drive herself to the hospital.”
Exactly and it’s almost as if he’s bragging about being evil and the people closest to him not realizing it.
The cans work fine but you’re only supposed to use it in short bursts not holding down the nozzle and going to town. I typically but a multipack and alternate between two if I need to use them for an extended period. Also keep in mind that the straw really limits the blowing force so use it only when you need to.
I wouldn’t worry too much about shorting as there should be diodes all over the mobo to prevent current from feeding where it shouldn’t but you could overdrive the fan and wear it out faster. A can of duster can do this too so just hold one of the blades and blow around it as you move your hand to cover the whole thing.
Its not “picking up our bat and ball and stomping off,” it’s recognizing that this new “team” is full of ringers who take no issue with cheating to win, who will pay referees to give them favorable calls, and who will only put on a good show for the crowd for as long as it takes to secure 1st place. This team also happens to control the supply of bats and balls and ensures that they get the best of the best at no cost while other teams are getting second rate bats and balls at sky-high prices. Those people talking about “how great the game was” don’t see or understand any of this, so their opinions should be disregarded. They didn’t witness a real competition, they witnessed something akin to a Harlem Globe Trotters or a WWE match.
You’re still framing this as if it’s about protecting our companies, but this is protecting our market, our jobs, and our agency as a nation. US companies only make up a small part of all this.
Furthermore, if you look at the situation in China with EVs, they have entire graveyards of practically new EVs rotting away because they’re turning the automotive market into yet another segment of cheap, disposable products, which is not only terrible for consumers but also for the environment.
Are you really that desperate to buy a brand new car every year like its the latest iPhone that you’d upend the entire world market and put millions and millions of people out of work not just in the US but in the rest of Asia, Europe, Canada, and Mexico? Do you really think they’ll continue the massive subsidies driving their prices so low once all the competition is gone? To get a little conspiratorial, with the design of modern EVs being entirely software controlled with wireless links back to the “mothership”, are you willing to hand over control of the nations’ entire fleet of vehicles to a single government entity that has demonstrated time and time again that they’re willing to use whatever force necessary to maintain complete control and keep everyone in line?
I’m not sure how you can call for the demise of capitalism while defending the worst parts of it here. This “economic velocity” is only good for the capitalists and what China is doing can only be described as capitalism.
The automotive industry employs millions of workers in the US at both domestic and foreign companies, and decimating that industry only to concentrate and centralize it somewhere else in the world is going to put those people out of work as well as creating a domino effect on the economy where all those dollars disappear from circulation. Capitalists will survive that but those workers won’t, nor will the places where those workers spend their money currently.
What you’re arguing for is essentially an entity like Walmart (China) moving into town and killing all its competitors by making it impossible to compete with them. We can see exactly how that scenario plays out in thousands of cities and towns across the US. Those “low prices” come at a steep cost for everyone involved except the capitalists running the business.
I have no issue with China selling cars here, but I do take issue with them rigging the game in their favor at our expense, which is why I support protection for the entire industry not just for US companies alone.
This is such a tired argument. Literally the only remaining US automakers are GM, Ford, and Tesla. A vast majority of car sales in the US are foreign brands not domestic. BYD is being propped up just the same as what you’re claiming here, which is why no other automaker in the world outside of China is able to beat these Chinese prices, so how is this alternative better for anyone?
China is doing this in order to dominate the market wherever they’re allowed to enter, and are well equipped to undercut those local markets for as long as it takes to put everyone else out of business. They control a majority of the minerals needed for EVs so they get to set the external and internal price. They have lax safety and environmental regulations. They already control much of the world’s manufacturing capacity. They’re a massive country with a massive workforce.
Allowing them to dominate the world auto market in order to buy one or two cheap new cars (before prices shoot back up because monopoly) is going to be bad for everyone.
You talking about that lady who spent half her campaign courting the approval of Dick Cheney and demanding that we send more munitions to slaughter innocent children in Gaza, and in doing so cleared a path to victory for Trump to have a second term?
These people being monsters doesn’t translate into Democrats being the “good guys” or entitled to power. They’ve both been at the helm this entire time as our country has fallen into a dystopian nightmare and they both share the blame.
Epstein died in 2019 during Trump’s first term.
Dont forget that just a few years after this, he was given a cushy cabinet position in tne first Trump administration.
Nor do you understand the term “evil.”
That second quote is what OP is saying here. They’re trying to frame this debate in a light most favorable to Republicans, as if internet censorship is the forgone conclusion and it’s just a matter of figuring out how to do it.
That could spell trouble for VPN owners and other internet users who leverage these tools to improve their privacy, protect their identities online, prevent ISPs from gathering data about them or increase their device safety when browsing on public Wi-Fi.
Is the extent of their knowledge on VPNs just what they heard from a NordVPN commercial? Not once in the article do they mention corporate VPNs.
Unfortunately this is becoming enough of “A Thing” that the left is going to have to, once again, be seen doing “something” about it.
I completely disagree with this sentiment and any Democrat that agrees with this isn’t on "the left, but one more diet-Republican who exists solely to legitimize everything the right is doing at every turn.
They let me watch when my wife needed an emergency c-section, and I wasn’t even the baby’s father as it was a surrogacy for some friends.
A man’s family tipped off police
So they stopped it just like they stopped Charlie Kirk’s killer, by having someone else do the work for them while they take the credit?
“Favorite” as in “entertaining” is definitely the Boston accent because it makes you sound wicked smahht.
Or that morning sunrise cigarette on the porch with fresh coffee.
They didnt even need the Supreme Court for that. Democrats have been rolling over and allowing Republicans to gerrymander states. Just look at what happened in Texas.
I do wonder where all those people went that told me that it was okay the Dems backed down in Texas because Dems in California were going to gerrymander their state and negate any gains Republicans made elsewhere. Apparently that memo got lost in the mail somewhere and Republicans were given everything they wanted yet again.
It does appear that two people were hit by the truck not bullets like I’d assumed, but there were police there not just Coast Guard personnel.
