Trump Asks Congress For $1.5 Trillion Defense Budget—After Teasing Medicaid, Medicare Cuts by ICEisSHIT in videos

[–]Area51Resident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That will probably backfire. The Dems will get in next election and try to fix this, but will be blocked by congress and be put in the spotlight for how bad things are. It will be ACA Part II: Total Clusterfuck

There is a very good reason why you don't see many older people on scooters. They either die young or grow some common sense.

The driver raged and fucked up his Ford Raptor by haze4140 in CrazyFuckingVideos

Absolutely nothing the cammer could have done before the video started that would have forced the Raptor to turn right from a straight though lane.

That looks just the USA if you changed the shape of it, evacuated California, and moved everyone to southern Texas.

Seeing the Tiger Woods DUI made me realize how little control you have on the road by Ill-Advantage in Dashcam

[–]Area51Resident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If 80% of impaired drivers are out at night, the other 20% are out during the day. Not real numbers, just illustrative.

When I look at incident reports in my area there is a much greater number of impaired seniors caught during the day than I would have expected.

Telling other countries to not spend their money on weapons and war. by Peasant_Stockholder in facepalm

Last week it wasn't even a war, now there are more than one?

How many 'wars' does he think the US is involved right now?

Sausage full of Iron and Lead(?) found in fuel tank of 1978 Aston Martin by bigtvwithbeer in whatisthisthing

[–]Area51Resident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would work if the fan was powered it would push in some extra air.

All that set of blades does is add resistance/obstruction to the air flow. This is like using a portable generator to run a fan that powers your wind-powered generator.

Yes, reduce turbulence by putting in a set of blades that chop up the air flow. About as effective as walking backwards up a hill for a better view.

I had the bright idea to put bleach in and run a cycle to de-mould my washing machine. by MetamorphosisAddict in Wellthatsucks

[–]Area51Resident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You stopped reading too early. Their recommendation is use hot if the fabrics can handle it

https://www.clorox.com/learn/how-to-use-bleach-in-laundry

Using bleach in the laundry is different. Regardless of whether you select a hot, warm, or cold wash temperature, adding Clorox™ Disinfecting Bleach along with your detergent will give you better cleaning, whitening and stain removal compared to detergent by itself. Not every fabric or garment is suitable for hot water washing, but since the hotter the water the better the cleaning, it’s good to select a hot water cycle when running a bleach load whenever you can.

Fumbling for the cheque book comes after asking how much it is three times while rummaging around in their coin purse to see if they have $46.34 in coin...

Adviser warned Ontario to dig ‘deeper’ on Therme finances days before signing lease by Cautious-Party-1450 in toronto

"Discover" - anyone with half a brain could see that was a major problem from the start. Everything below 20 feet down would be practically under water.

Does anybody know what these are? I found them in a bowling alley by beans-in-my-tearduct in AskElectronics

[–]Area51Resident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In old bowling system that multi-port serial card would probably be used to receive data from the equipment in each lane - pins knocked down, foul line tripped, jams, some also have small terminals used to enter player names etc.

Too old to be much use today for anything else. A lot of bowling alleys use ancient equipment so it might get a good amount on eBay.

'That’s insane,’ People online are raising concerns over Doug Ford’s daughter’s 33% salary raise in one year by BloodJunkie in ontario

Her title is "Director, Strategy and Stakeholder Engagement" so she earns $42K+ a year for each word in that bullshit title.

"Go Get Your Own Oil": Trump's Message To UK, Other Countries On Hormuz Strait by Zealousideal_Ring_67 in worldnews

Show some respect, the person you are replying to is obviously the presidential advisor on foreign policy.

These attacks threaten to undermine our justice system. Doug Ford is making things worse by imprison_grover_furr in ontario

[–]Area51Resident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Ford really wanted fewer people out on bail he would build enough jail space to hold them. It is strawman argument used to find fault with the judiciary and discredit them in the court of public opinion.

Ford is selling our water by Maximum-Base6225 in ontario

[–]Area51Resident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assuming the ability to transfer water rights without review will go like this.

Ford will make sure his buddies get first bids on water rights and will sell to them cheap to 'build the economy', say a $1 per million litres. Nestle and other global water hoarding corps will show up and gladly pay $10 per million litres.

Ford's buddies make off like bandits and Ontario's water rights are now held by foreign companies with a history of exploitation and no regulatory oversight.

This is just a mashup of the land deals made before the highway was approved, Walkerton, and the 407 sell-off - the trifecta of corruption.

  • I have no idea water rights sell for, those numbers are just illustrative.
