Would that include Stargate SG-1? It was all filmed in Canada.

The same methods used to protect lynch mobs.

The human/gorilla common ancestor walked upright on two feet. Humans kept it, gorillas evolved towards foot/knuckle walking.

Nay they'd be covered with a flap, can't have people taking pictures to fool security with, but you need to easily expose it for check points.

There is no war large enough to stop US elections without also ending the US. The states run the elections, you would have to stop New York, Colorado, and California from being able to run elections. Not one of them, all of them. And not just 'it's a bad time for this distraction', they would have to have non-functional state governments. The civil war couldn't manage that level of dysfunction or destruction.

Bunkers only protect against foreign bombs. Local residents have construction equipment and concrete saws.

We found the Kaiju signal?

We occasionally get lucid leadership. As a whole group though, our leadership class has always had some glaring idiocy going on.

Was there a time when they weren't?

Only if they tricked Trump into another debate while Joe was on a lot of coke. At which point he would have had to step down right after the election anyway, due to his heart giving out.

Joe never should have ran for a second term, and he should have known better than to try it.

Garak knows the rules. Always be polite, until it's time to not be polite. Pulaski started out rude. There's no excuse for that.

Just wondering if anyone has experience with pouring aluminum or copper on their pottery? We've done melts with glass, but getting ready to try aluminum, and maybe copper if that works out.

WASHINGTON, Feb 3 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday ordering the creation of a sovereign wealth fund within the next year, saying it could potentially buy the short video app TikTok. Trump offered little in the way of detail and it was unclear how such a wealth fund would work. Typically such funds rely on a country's budget surplus to make investments, but the U.S. operates at a deficit. Its creation also would likely require approval from Congress.

Circular saw advice (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago by Skyrmir@lemmy.world to c/tools@lemmy.world

About to be in the market for a new circular saw, just looking for the typical 7.25 blade saw. One thing that has constantly bothered me though is the depth adjustment. Every saw I've ever had used a flip lever on a nut in the back, and that's always been the point of failure. They slip, break, seize or otherwise fail first before anything else on the saw. And it's literally the only setting on a saw that i ever touch beyond changing blades.

So what brand has a reliable depth adjustment?

Saw a post mentioning an old Scottish gentleman that had saved a bottle of whiskey to drink the day Margaret Thatcher died. And I'm quite sure he enjoyed the drink.

So my question to the community, what's the best drink for the day any major politician finally kicks the bucket? Should it be your own favorite spirit, or something to denote the character, and vitriol, of the deceased? Something sweet to enjoy the day, or harsh to remember the bitterness of their character?

I'm trying to plan a shelf for my dining room. Each bottle labeled for who they're waiting for.
