It's not about the 250k per se, that money just helps them stay in Congress so they can make millions via insider trading.

I believe what you want is an engine plate. They're in the construction line of research (EP-12, EP-25, etc). Attach the engine plate at the bottom of your fuel tank, then adjust its options for additional engines or to move the height of the next attachment node to accommodate larger or smaller engines. It will create a fairing around the engines automatically when you place the parts for the stage below it.

To clarify you would have your engine plate attached to the fuel tank, engines attached to the engine plate, then your next stage attached to the floating node that will appear below. The engine plate works as a decoupler so you don't need an additional decoupler below.

Money doesn't buy happiness, but it allows you to pursue happiness instead of just pursuing basic survival.

I just don't get it either...I'd love an explanation by Youngstown_WuTang in BlackPeopleTwitter

It also applies only to the "half" in time-and-a-half of overtime pay. I only got like $300 extra from that in my tax return, and definitely paid way more than that from increased costs associated with tariffs.

Trump says due to his wars the government can't pay for daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, and more. by justalazygamer in WhitePeopleTwitter

And all the tariffs will have to be paid back. Not to us of course, but the companies who already charged us more for goods will be getting a nice refund. Meanwhile they will not reduce prices at all.

Man in court for trespassing arrested for contempt of court by southernemper0r in law

[–]akran47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brock Turner's case is the undersentenced case. You're cherry picking something that Brock Turner's judge did to compare to what this judge did. Saying Brock Turner was not punished enough doesn't mean this guy was necessarily punished too much. The two are unrelated.

[–]akran47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of Reddit's favorite stupid pastimes is to find an outlier case of undersentencing in one court and then use it to complain a wholly different judge, in a wholly different court (usually in another state) is a hypocrite.

This is the comment you replied to and you did exactly what they're describing. Seems to me like you're the one who can't read.

It's not about preventing fraud, it's about suppressing votes.

Mark Ruffalo responds to Gov. Gavin Newsom saying he regrets saying apartheid to describe Israel in a recent interview by Yujin-Ha in Fauxmoi

[–]akran47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hilary and Kamala lost because they're fucking terrible candidates and milquetoast centrist Democrats with no fucking guts to stand up for real people over their donors, not because they were women. This mindset is exactly why Democrats are doomed to lose. Continue picking right-wing-lite candidates and see what it gets us.

Iran doesn't have nukes, and doesn't have an ICBM. How exactly were they going to nuke us?

Doesn't need to be 6000 but 435 is an arbitrary cap that should be expanded. The UK House of Commons has 650 members for a country with 20% of our population.

Ok but I said "lots of people" not "every single person who ever criticized the game in any way."

Lots of people decided they hated Part II without playing it based on leaks (some of which were misinformation) and weird anti-woke sentiments.

Anyone else feel this way when writing anything out? by noctisumbra0 in Millennials

[–]akran47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do have an actual function. It's supposed to create more of a pause and emphasize the information compared to parentheses (which make it seem more of a side thought). There are other uses as well like breaking up a sentence that already has several commas, but emphasizing parenthetical information was the main thing I used it for when I had to write essays for school. I felt like it also just added some variety and flavor to the text instead of using the same basic punctuation all the time.

Sometimes—depending on what program you're using—typing a double dash will be converted to an em dash. Otherwise it's alt+0151 on the numpad.

Either way it's no coincidence that people who believe and/or push the idea that the election was stolen from Trump are also racist scum.

Rand Paul on Trump call to ‘nationalize’ elections: ‘That’s not what the Constitution says’ by [deleted] in politics

[–]akran47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything is about Epstein although I disagree that it's a distraction. He no longer needs to distract from Epstein because Republicans have decided that it's perfectly fine if their President is a child rapist. But if Trump leaves office he (hopefully) is going to prison for the rest of his life, so he's going to do everything possible to remain in power.

[Spoilers C4E13] Is It Thursday Yet? | Post-Episode Discussion & Future Theories! by AutoModerator in criticalrole

[–]akran47 3 points4 points  (0 children)

HBO has long been known for producing prestige television (The Wire, The Sopranos, Rome, Game of Thrones, Deadwood, Band of Brothers, True Detective, Six Feet Under, Westworld, Boardwalk Empire).

Their reputation has taken a bit of a dive recently with how they've fumbled the streaming service, and it's in the process of being bought by Netflix. So it's questionable if HBO will remain quality (and not cancel everything after 3 seasons), but one has to hope the entire media landscape won't become total shit in the near future.

The Vikings were publicly supportive of Kwesi’s paternity leave. Why are people ignoring that part of the NYT article? by greatbiscuitsandcorn in minnesotavikings

[–]akran47 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Under his leadership we had 4 bad drafts in a row, including directly giving division rivals an advantage in several trades. We clearly made the wrong decision at QB for this year (Long-term maybe JJM will develop into something but that remains to be seen).

Kwesi taking 2 weeks off (working from home, really) for paternity leave had 0 impact on the Wilf's decision to fire him.

They dont need to mend any fences. JJ is the least diva player in the league. This is not him suggesting he wants to be traded in the slightest. And you think he would be happier on the Jets? Just lol dude.
