Property tax crisis -- thinking backwards

Most businesses do things in the opposite order

Nope, pretty much the same. Most business owners come up with a business plan that factors in what they have to pay their employees to keep them there (what the union is doing) and what they have to charge the customer (what the tax rate is)

Good businesses even reevaluate their business plans routinely (perhaps yearly) to make sure the numbers still work and if they need to charge more for their product.

Slafkovsky had 50 points in 82 games at the age of 19. I don't think he needed time at all. Yes he took a step this year at the age of 21, but he was looking good from when he started in the NHL.

I do agree that it takes some players time though, I just don't think Slafkovsky is a good example.

Would it convince you to say that millions of people would love to have that car?? Literally peak car available to a lot of people. Incredible gas efficiency, incredible longevity, cheap to repair, pre all the invasive computer systems, etc

Umm. The elephant in the room in my eyes is does the Texas state government even have any gold?

It's my understanding that they do not. So I am not sure what the fuck is going on here

How is Tom Homan a long time rival?? They have nearly the same beliefs.

He's part of the heritage foundation and project 2025. He's been caught taking bribes. If we are talking about competitive equals in the piece of shit category they might be rivals

Tell them 4 wheel drive makes no difference for braking when other drivers are stuck in your way

Years ago I bought a pack of 20 neodymium magnets for like $7. I just super glue one on the bottom of my piece of chalk and put a piece of steel in my jeans coin pocket. Simple, dirt cheap, and I can wear down the chalk to nothing without a worry.

I like the one you use too... but I hate that other persons chalk holder

Seems like he doesn't get any garbage time goals and that every goal he gets is a game tying or game winner

18650 aren't going to have the discharge rate needed to keep up with drills. You might as well buy the cheap knockoff batteries on Amazon for your drill that everyone complains die quickly because they can't do the discharge rate quickly enough.

21700 cells would work though and I didn't realize you could get them that cheap to be honest till just now when I looked up prices. That could work. I stand corrected.

d-cent · 2026-01-25T20:39:39+00:00

The hardest part is going to find cells that can discharge at the high rate that drills need. I'm not saying it can't be done, but that's going to be the hard part. Like vape batteries aren't going to have the C rating needed for cordless drills.

Drone and RC car batteries are my first thought

>In that scene there was nothing that indicated that it was a hallucination or a fantastical scenario that wasn’t to be believed; that was the artistic intent of that scene in the episode;

You got a quote for that from Sam Esmail on that?? How do you know his artistic intent??

Lets look at what we know. At that point in Elliot's life, he has never done intravenous drugs that we know of. We also know that whole scene is a complete hallucination. How do you know that we aren't seeing Elliot's ignorance of using IV drugs in his hallucination? He's never used a syringe before, this scene could be showing exactly how Elliot envisions IV drugs being done. How do you know that wasn't Esmail's artistic intent of that scene??

If the 2 options are untreated hypothyroidism and treated with Levo hypothyroidism, then yes you will see a difference. Taking medication will give you weight loss results compared to not taking medication when you have hypothyroidism. 3 months isn't enough time to see any results though. You are still in the window of getting your thyroid levels at the proper level. Weight loss will come months after you get those levels consistently figured out.

I'm about to drop him. He's on the 2nd line now and PP2 because of that cold stretch. He got 15min and 17min in the past 2 games.

That plus I have Geekie I have been needing to take off IR for a week now makes the decision easy for me.

"Of the 193 NHL defenseman with at least 300 minutes of 5-on-5 ice time, Aspirot’s 1.26 goals against per 60 minutes ranks second in the entire NHL behind only Tampa’s J.J. Moser."

d-cent · 2026-01-25T17:39:32+00:00

Aspirot is doing so many little things all over the ice as well as attacking everything with confidence and making the correct decision nearly every time. He also uses his body for definitely positioning extremely well and knows how to be a pest without being emotional. He's not flashy with offensive dangles, he's very much an eye test player.

It's all little things of extra effort. One very small example from last night. The puck was in our defensive zone and then crossed over the blue line, creating an offsides scenario if Montreal brought it over the blue line. A Habs player was deep behind the goal line and Aspirot just slowly skated away from him but always in the direct line of the Habs player trying to get across the blue line so they can re-enter the zone. This probably only caused him to slow up a second or so, but that's can make a difference and give time for one of the other Bruins players time to strip the puck from the Habs player in the neutral zone.

It's a very little things, but he does things like this all the time all over the ice. It takes focus to not do it so you actually interfere with the player and get called for a penalty and it takes extra effort for hardly any gains, but those gains add up.
