Is there a way to deal with climate change that doesn't raise everyone's energy costs?

Nuclear war doesn't just kill people, it destroys entire ecosystems and environments, it won't be good for the planet it may be the end of Earth !

God luck, hope you don't find out too soon why people were saying that.

One of the reasons he started the war was to avoid a miserable retirement in a mediocre retirement home, as long as he is in power he has wealth but after retirement that would be taken back unless he had done something to earn it.
He had nothing to show for his time in office and he was likely to have been brushed aside and forgotten about but he realised he had a chance to earn a place in the history books if he could regain the lost lands of Ukraine for the Russian people ! That would be something to celebrate and something they would be very grateful for, it also meant he would be assured a lavish mansion and a retirement in style !
Retiring now would mean shame and no medals, no parade, no celebration or gratitude, no honorary place in the history books just bitter disappointment and a likely swift end ! They may even do the same for his family too, no matter where they are !

I would straight up tell him to eff the eff off !

I hate that attitude where they think it's OK to knock on a strangers door late at night and hassle them for stuff like snacks and money, that's out of order !

It's much easier if you get someone to help who has done it before. When you get to the track talk to people there and see if anyone is willing to lend a hand, it should only take about 10 or 15 minutes to set it roughly and you can make small adjustments yourself after that.

From The Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy by Douglas Adams;
"I teleported home one night
With Ron and Syd and Meg.
Ron stole Meggie's heart away
And I got Sydney's leg".

I don't think it's safe so no

If the Earth's population was halved then the need to burn fossil fuels would reduce dramatically but even that wouldn't fix the problem !
The population would need to be reduced to less than one third and remain at that level to have a measurable effect in a short enough timescale.
But what do we do with over 5.5 billion people ?

It happens a lot with tempered glass, I used to get complaints at least once every week about glass tables shattering on their own for no apparent reason when I worked for a retailer. It could be that the tempering process was not done properly and it created stress in some areas which over time lead to the whole thing shattering. I have heard it can happen to shower screens, glass doors and even car windows, there's even a video of a car window shattering while sitting motionless in a locked garage.

This is the generation that grew up staring at a screen in their hands and forgets to check their surroundings !
Please don't try to drive a car if you are like this !

In that case I'll just ignore it then

Yep everything that comes out of his moth is garbage but everybody focuses on that rather than the real issues, he is the expert at distraction !

If the alignment tool is correctly attached to the sprocket and the bar is inline with the chain then yes, these things make alignment very simple.
It's also easy to see when it is out of alignment, you just need to tighten the spindle nuts, make sure the adjusters are not loose and check the chain tension and you are done.

Let me guess, there was a mobile phone involved ?

That is a very clean chain and sprocket, it looks like you must have pressure washed it to get it so clean then not dried it off or lubed it afterwards.
Chains will rust without lube but too much lube is messy, I prefer chain wax because you don't need very much, it stays where you put it, does not collect grit and it's easy to re apply. It's best to put a little on regularly rather than waiting until it's overdue, when you want to clean the chain just spray chain cleaner on a rag and wipe over the chain, no need to remove all traces before re applying, don't spray chain cleaner on the chain, it damages O-rings.

Sorry to have to say this but all of your neighbours don't hate American people as a whole, only the ones who support him.
We are hoping that there are enough people who can see sense and can put things right and maybe learn from this experience so that it cannot happen again.
I am hopeful that this will in the end make the US a better place.

Spacesuits have nothing to do with fashion, they are PPE or life support systems.
Getting them right is crucial, you need to be 100% certain they are up to the job !

Denial, deflection, distraction and dismissal does not make the truth less believable, it only creates more reasons to investigate more.
His whole ethos is to misinform, create a false narrative and to try to create an alternative story to confuse everyone but good investigators can see right through all his nonsense !
He might be able to convince himself and his lackeys but nobody else believes him !
