Out of curiosity, what is your favorite egg dish or dishes?
If you are going to eat lots of them, that would mean a dish for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Oh, don’t forget dessert as well. 😉

You forgot to mention on how unlikely it is that they will even complete those modifications before he is supposed to leave the Presidency. They are still working on the 747’s he specified in 2018 at the cost of $2 Billion EACH. The first one will be ready in 2027.

What’s a log table, (or any other transcendental table)?
If he knows that, then he’s probably used a slide rule

You could ask him these questions:
Have you ever played a record? If so, at what speed?
How about listening to music on an 8-Track tape?
Have you ever learned Trucker lingo for talking on a CB? (10-4 Good buddy).
What about using “1337 speak” (leet speak), have you used it before?

Which is worse, facing him twice a year on the Lions or if he went to the Niners, then losing to him in the Playoffs?

One interesting correlation is that States with higher percentages of Medicaid paid births tend to have lower costs of births overall. The possible reason is that Medicaid’s payment structure requires lower cost births, forcing health providers to cut costs for those procedures.

Maybe, but maybe that is more because the trailers look like it is hitting too close to reality. With a President that is deceitful to get what he wants and eventually rampaging through the government destroying everything in anger and revenge for perceived offenses, to insure getting his way.

One thing missing from your article is contextualizing the average ticket price paid today with the average ticket price paid during the opening weekend of the other Marvel movies mentioned. There is a 25% difference over 24 years (www.the-numbers.com/market/).
That said, I am still going to see it

So I guess that saying is true then, that the “devil is in the details”.
You even have the receipts to prove it. 😉

There was never a federal ban on plastic straws that would affect anyone other than the federal Gov starting with ending procurement of plastic straws by 2027 and they would all have to be used up by 2035. So it only affects what the Feds buy. It did not affect states or home usage.

If instead of a red “frame” you meant a red “circle” with a crossing slash, maybe like this might work?
(Unfortunately my iOS markup would not let me lineup the red slash centered on the white stripe, but it should be close enough to get the idea).

This is thinking straight out of the 1800’s colonial/imperial thinking. I don’t think most Americans were thinking of making America like the early to mid 1800’s.
What really bothers me is that this is the same type of thinking/attitude that Putin takes towards Ukraine. 🤦

I am wondering what would happen if Canada enacted a “Reverse Tariff” of 15% on any Canadian oil/gas/fuel shipped to the US. Essentially US companies would pay Canada for the opportunity to buy oil/fuel from Canada. US drivers would feel the full impact of a 25% Tariff and CA could help CA companies

I am not even bothering to try. This has become such a bore. The way the potions are implemented adds complexity on top of complexity when I just want to get on run a quick mission or two and get off.

Technically though, the helicopters in that area over the river are not supposed to fly over 200 feet and they know it. When they ask for “Visual Separation”, they automatically acknowledge that they are responsible for staying away from the other aircraft.

The ATC warned the the Helicopter pilot of the CRJ & asked it if they saw it. Pilot said yes & asked for “Visual Separation”, which means he saw the Jet & would maintain separation. The ATC allowed it as this is SOP. Later the ATC asked again & the pilot said he saw the CRJ & will stay away from it.

Regan did not close them specifically but felt States could better fund and run them. He was not the only one. That funding bill came from a House controlled by the Democrats which then moved the funding & control to the States.
It has been 45 years, plenty of time to change it if people wanted.

Oh we had homelessness long before Reagan came. Please go back and study US history, especially the Great Depression. Even in the 60’s we had a large number of homeless, though they were not allowed to be as visible back then.

FYI - I discovered an error in the math I used which resulted in a total of 465 seats instead of the limited 435. This is still within a 10% engineering estimate. The impact will probably be a couple of fewer seats for Canada, Calif and TX, with a bunch of other states losing one each until @ 435.

And no, I do not support making Canada, nor Greenland part of the US.

I am not sure those who want to keep control of the House and Senate have thought this all the way through. 10% may not seem like much but it is enough to “tip the balance” when things are evenly divided like they are today.
Since many Canadians seem to be more balanced, this could be a good thing.😉

So about the same speed as Windows originally ran on ARM computers before they created Windows RT?

Public schools in general are not equipped to handle Neurodivergent students (regardless of where they are on the spectrum). Not because they do not have the money but because most often they want to focus the funds on the middle 70% of the students as it is easier to justify the spending.

Great show though I have several questions that occurred during the discussion on AI translation of idioms.
1) How many living, human languages do you know/speak?
2) At the Vatican, which language do you normally use speaking with one another?
3) Did you have to learn a new one for Vatican work?

Apple has not contributed to the Trump Inauguration fund. Tim Cook did so out of his pocket.
As for contributing to the LA Fire relief, they are already supporting the firefighters on the technical front and helping victims. They are just doing rather than talking

True, don’t you hate it when people listen to you. 😉
That said, most email and messages are still sent in clear text. Though that opening is slowly closing as well. Many people believe that all RCS is now encrypted but that is only if they are running a recent Android release on both phones.

I thought that you could still do those sort of things with TP-Link routers, which make up about 20% of the installed consumer routers in the US?

With all of the different voices you use for your Bunker Branding advertisements I am surprised you did not narrate your own book. 😉

Oh and as a fact check of Trump’s statement in the “Meet the Press” interview. 39 countries currently have Birthright Citizenship, not just the U.S.
Interestingly, almost all of them are in the western hemisphere, on the North and South American continents. So removing BC is actually unAmerican. 😉

This could have occurred at any time without any presidential support, including while Biden was President. If the Republicans can barely control the House as well as the Senate then removing this amendment is a dead issue, regardless of what the POTUS says.

Not just 2/3 of both the US House and the US Senate but it must also be ratified (approved) by 3/4 of the state legislatures.
One thing to note is that since this is a constitutional issue and not an executive issue, the POTUS plays NO official part in this.

Where each color represents the different Photo’s app. Then if the text is for all 3 apps, then all three vertical stripes would be in the margin beside the text. If the text was only appropriate of say iOS Photos then only one stripe of that color would be beside that text. This saves space. 🧵(2/2)

I am curious as to what the delay time is between the scammer saying something and the AI responding. This seems like it could be a weak point that can let the scammer identify they are talking to an AI if it is often a long delay. Maybe if the AI say’s it just woke up or is old that can explain it?

In the US, turkey was associated with thanksgiving dinner since it was easily found, easy to kill, cook, and feed multiple people.
If European Australians developed a thanksgiving feast early after arriving, working with the aborigines, what animal would they feast on? Sand Goanna, Kangaroo, etc?

You don’t need all of them to revolt, only enough to insure that Gaetz’s nomination would not be affirmed without the release of the report.
I suspect there are enough who are still ticked at him for getting McCarthy ousted from the Speaker position which doomed certain Senate actions.
