Usually people don't drag their skirt on the ground like the cuffs of those pants. It's a stupid design, the way to make them work is to model them after Japanese Hakama pants, but use lighter material.

It's a trick question, dueling is no longer legal in the US.

One advantage of mail in voting, is that it always uses a paper ballot.

Not having a paper trail, is strongly being pushed by one party.

Last I knew, it might depend on your individual voting district too. Some places are still implementing over time.

Shouldn't the governor be able to just send a cop to do a wellness check?

I went pretty cheap and had good results, I don't remember the brand, it was about a decade ago. Like I said, the only trick was to keep the two end points on the same circuit. If it had to go through the breaker box, there tended to be problems. Also any motors on that circuit will blast the signal. So there's definite caveats, but if it fits your situation they do work.

I had good luck with IP over power lines from my camera box to my house years ago. You do need to get the end points on the same branch circuit. It was far superior to any of the wifi solutions I tried.

Depending where you start it would probably keep up a 2 to 3 pound a week loss until you get down to around 120lbs, then it would slow down.

If you lose more than water weight in 3 days, it's probably due to traumatic illness or amputation.

Honestly I don't care which way they set it, just so long as we can stop fucking with the clocks every 6 months. Schedules can move if needed, for those that need to.

All those hours, and hasn't accomplished a damn thing, while not being informed about anything. Is he jerking off the rest of congress one at a time?

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.

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.
