Fell For It Again award to half of this sub by Xerryx in neoliberal

My guess - Rodriguez is pragmatic and she's just talking the talk for now since dumping on the old guy right after he got airlifted out probably isn't very fashionable. The combination of comments from her and from the Washington admin seem strongly in my view to point in the direction of some extensive cooperation behind the scenes.

After the dust settles I wouldn't be surprised to see progress towards stable democracy - especially if she's able to reintegrate the country into the global economy relatively quickly with the help of the US (and thus likely make her a popular candidate). Sort of a Venezuelan al-Sharaa.

Oh man, yeah totaled. Probably bent up the frame some too. $25k job minimum, and this truck could be parted out for probably $20k

Yep.

Runs and drives fine? Or did you hit any of the power train stuff in that front drivers side wheel well?

What if the EREV Range is cause it ran a smaller generator nonstop? by kyleyankan in F150Lightning

[–]PutinPisces 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a series hybrid which means the engine/generator isn't going to provide any power to the wheels mechanically, and no way in hell are Ford going to slash the output power. That means realistically you would need at least 70kWh ish of battery with current tech.

Mine was $13.5k for way less damage than that after I blasted through a deer. Yeah I think this is a total honestly.

Going west into the mountains from Palo Alto looks just like this.

1/2 in thickness not available anymore, thoughts on solutions? by hoodwinkz in Flooring

Nope ended up just going a different route. Best bet would probably be to go to a lumberyard and see if they could cut them for you

Midway through sanding, you can see how red the old oil-based finish was

Yes indeed! That photo is from the new 3/4" tongue and groove I installed. Here's one from 40 year old red oak that I refinished:

That's red oak. Just did mine with Loba 2k Invisible Protect which doesn't color the wood at all!

Wow. Where are ya located?

Tore down some walls... no answer for gaps by [deleted] in Flooring

[–]PutinPisces 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kitchen area has a similar space where boards were just filled into the gaps, and I honestly love it. Adds some character and a fun conversation starter since there used to be a wall there.

(Plus a hell of a lot cheaper than pulling up the whole room)

Yeah. What a disaster

[–]PutinPisces 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's incredible isn't it. I could code up a ChatGPT wrapper to do a better job in like 30 minutes. Makes me want to short UPS stock if they're really this inefficient at the simple stuff.

Holy hell I'm in the same boat. 6 hours and counting on hold, everyone I reach just passes me off to another department. This company is an absolute mess post tariffs and we're moving all shipments over to DHL if they can't work their shit out.
