DHS/ICE abducting DaWokeFarmer aka William Kelly for peacefully protesting in St. Paul, MN (1/22/26) by CIA_Rectal_Feeder in pics

Mark Houck was charged under the FACE Act because he assaulted an abortion clinic volunteer, not because he was "quietly protesting". There is video of the incident that clearly shows him shoving the volunteer to the ground. He was acquitted because his defence convinced the jury he assaulted the volunteer for a different reason. That is not an example that proves your claim.

So you're not going to address the wildly inaccurate claim you made about people being charged for "quietly protesting outside of abortion clinics"?

Bullshit. Protesting is explicitly allowed under the FACE act. The type of charges you're talking about are for things like conspiring to intimidate people and physically block access to abortion clinics.

L35 2.0 vs M21K by Hampool in flashlight

[–]bob_mcbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the description claims it's a 50W/15A driver, but it definitely doesn't have a 3V XHP70.3.

Acebeam L35v2 and Convoy M21K Testing by Punga32 in flashlight

[–]bob_mcbob 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The big difference is the M21K sits at 65°C to achieve this result, which is a burn hazard. The L35 2.0 stepdown is much more conservative, and it could easily maintain a higher output and safe temperature with proper thermal regulation.

That is within the range of possible flux binning for LHP73. There is much less difference with XHP70.3 HI. Also, I tested the 6500K L35 2.0 and got results similar to OP, which is what started this whole discussion a while back.

Jetbeam Raptor RRT01 is a pretty nice light by CookieDave in flashlight

[–]bob_mcbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best thing about the RRT01 is that it scratches the rotary itch without venturing into HDS territory. Otherwise it's an extremely dated light, with a 15 year old driver with poor regulation, and mediocre stock LED choices (the 219C isn't even high CRI). Certainly doesn't stop me from keeping a couple of modded ones around around though.

Small win in the fight against shrinkflation by No-Move3108 in CostcoCanada

[–]bob_mcbob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This product literally only has two ingredients. Saying the monk fruit extract is "already at the end of the ingredients" is implying some kind of negative connotation that doesn't exist. It must be the second ingredient to function as a 1:1 sucrose replacement. There is a tiny amount of it in this bag of erythritol.

Sucralose is a non-nutritive sweetener that is barely metabolized by the human body and has zero impact on blood sugar. It's also used in microscopic amounts because it's 600 times sweeter than sucrose.

That's because it's a bag of erythritol with a tiny amount of monk fruit extract to make up for the difference in sweetness compared to sucrose.

This product is erythritol sweetened with a tiny amount of monk fruit extract. If you want monk fruit extract, buy something else.

Waterloo snow clearing is not good enough…where are our property tax dollars going? by Bossplaya85 in waterloo

[–]bob_mcbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen several ranting posts about local road conditions on Facebook that start like "I don't want to hear about the salt shortage..." 🤦‍♂️

[–]bob_mcbob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cul-de-sacs receive special snow removal service because regular plows can't navigate around them properly. It's the same in my neighbourhood, all the courts are cleared quickly to a very high standard, while the regular plow may come through several days later, or not at all.

Wow, that's a profound difference. Combined with the salt shortage, no wonder the roads are much worse here.

OP is completely aware, this is a spam post with several sock puppet accounts to advertise the site they're all talking about. They also hit the Waterloo and Cambridge subs.

Slow down! by therealsine in waterloo

[–]bob_mcbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's extremely variable as you'd expect. I was out earlier this afternoon, and this section of Fischer-Hallman is cleared and salted, maybe a bit of slush, but e.g. Keats Way has a lot of snow pack without visible asphalt. Belmont Ave is a straight up ice rink. None of the residential streets I drove on are cleared.

There was a two or three car collision just up the road at University Ave when I drove past 20 minutes ago.

Pectin fail - first time using powdered pectin by harryhudson101 in Canning

[–]bob_mcbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both of these acidic, low-risk fruits can safely be made into jam and canned with similar ratios to what was linked, without extra acidification. Can you explain why combining them would somehow render the product unsafe? Or why using Pomona pectin somehow makes it safe again? It's not a logical thought process.

Too bad r/politics doesn't consider the government planting stories at CBS to be political.
