18-20 is the typical age for the most healthy children, and lowest maternal problems. At the same time, economic health doesn't peak until well into the 40s.

It makes for a social tug of war thats never easy to handle.

Sounds like a new Mythbusters challenge, could a Sopwith survive a catapult launch? Would the parts of the plane fly off the deck, or would it just rip off whatever attachment point was made? Not that it would need a catapult to take off, but it would be interesting to see.

That makes two down, who's next? How is Grassley doing these days?

Very impressive really, combining microwave pulses theoretically easy, but practically very difficult.

At the end of the day the AI war is a production war, and China already won. Right now they're just pacing the field and waiting for US companies to over extend themselves. The extra time also allows them to lay in place more efficiency of their own.

Even if they are, it's better to target their depots than the transport vehicles. The main attacks on Russia are drones and missiles designed for stationary targets. If they hit a school bus in an ammo depot, that's not really Ukraine's fault, and doesn't really change the mission.

The only realization people are coming to is that the wealthy are the ones keeping everything from improvement so they can lock down their wealth as much as possible.

I just tell them it doesn't work on my system.

Apparently the 70s oil crisis was that we only used tankers with holes in them.

Clouds make it annoying and inconsistent. Also people need light at night regardless, so lights are always needed.

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.
