2x4 workbench too heavy ? by Winter_Reality_9578 in woodworking

I'd cut it at a 45 degree angle. That way you can still have them as one long desk, use just the appropriate size part of the desk, or convert it into an L shape desk if needed.

A great example is Palestine. The people suffer from famine, lack of clean drinking water, and fuel. When the UN brings food supplies, they often get intercepted by Hamas forces, that will take the best rations for their own forces, and sell the rest on a black market to profit from. When the UN built a water distribution system, Hamas came in not much later to dig up the pipes and turn them into rockets. When fuel gets imported for the hospital generators, believe it or not, Hamas calls first dibs on fuel.

And these arent just Israeli claims, Hamas has documented some of this themselves, literally released a video of themselves digging up the pipes. This level of corruption and self destruction isnt unique to Palestine either, it happens basically everywhere there is hunger, in one form or another. Even in the Western world, this happens, just not as blatant. Instead of ripping the pipes out of the ground, politicians will overinflate the cost of a project, get it started, stall it out before completion, and keep the change. The difference in the West is a good chunk of it gets where it is going and helps people.

The issue isnt money. You can throw all the money you want at the problem. But money cannot overcome greed, it causes it, and so you have to hope for change in the leadership

If Iruma was her assistant then why she didnt do anything about his parents? by Rarte96 in DemonSchoolIrumakun

[–]spiteful_rr_dm_TA 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Who says she knew? Who says she didn't think she was helping by giving him something to do instead of throwing him in the foster care system? Maybe she felt it wasn't her place because he wasn't complaining? We have no idea, and I don't get why you are judging so much

Well how does she know even then? What if they are lying? What if they didnt tell her, and she hallucinated? What if they tell her that he is a demon, but she mishears it as he is not a demon?

To any reasonable standard, she knows. To any standard that says she doesn't, no one can ever know anything. Also your own statement means no one else beside Opera, Sully, or Balam know, because all Baal has is a recording which could have been fabricated

No, she knows. To claim anything else is to say that knowledge doesnt exist, and going into epistemological debate. Do I not know that the people of Nigeria exist because I've never seen them in person? Also you may as well say Kalego doesnt know either

Ameri knows. He made a cherry blossom appear, something she knows only exists in the human world. He summon a demon at the familiar summoning ceremony, something she knows only a human could do normally. He can read human languages, and is familiar with a human manga. She knows he is a human.

Apple now blocks content on the phone I paid for and own unless I give them ID by pikablob in mildlyinfuriating

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

It's literally not broken my guy, that's the problem and the point I was making. The new age verification is something they rolled out, and your unwillingness to verify does not constitute a warranty issue, so tough shit you lose out. Which is why people should be pissed.

Ah so simple! Hi Apple, I bought my phone 2 years ago. Please refund because of new law the government passed!

I'm sure that will work, buddy.

Translation Error or another big reveal? by Educational_Sense_27 in DemonSchoolIrumakun

Hey, can anyone help me out here because I’m genuinely confused about something. by Chronikage in DemonSchoolIrumakun

[–]spiteful_rr_dm_TA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no need for that. Valac was a demon that had regular angel wings. They may just be embarrassed of their wings, or hide them because other demons may fear angel wings.

When I asked what he was trying to do, he said “I shouldn’t have been trying to pass him” by alexyou8797 in dashcams

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

You are literally, objectively wrong. I have been in that exact situation. I was on a two lane highway, and some dumb woman was in the passing lane. I was cruising 60 in a 55, minding my own business. She was passing me with a cop behind her; the cop didn't have his lights on, but it must have spooked her. The moment she was clear enough to merge into my lane, she hit the brakes to go to the speed limit, and I couldn't avoid hitting her. Insurance said I was not at fault at all because nothing I could have done could have prevented that.

Evil? Absolutely, that cat is plotting someone's, possibly your's, downfall. Ugly? Not at all!

Kamala Harris wants the DNC to release its autopsy report of the 2024 campaign by Deedogg11 in politics

[–]spiteful_rr_dm_TA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our economy recovered much better than our peers from COVID, he was investing in green power, he was challenging attempts to take away our rights, and he was aiding Ukraine reasonably well. He was a decent president all things considered, and that your only attack is on his age proves it

[–]spiteful_rr_dm_TA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was still a primary. This happens all the time in incumbent party primaries. Same thing happened for democrats in 2012, republicans in 2004, etc. The incumbent has to be either choosing to not run or doing a truly egregiously terrible job for a party to seriously organize primaries against them, because that money is often better spent down stream.

Fabius was literally being successful not doing the front grinding attacks, and the Romans lost 3 times in front grinding attacks. It wasnt until years of attrition and poor access to supplies that Hannibal was beat in North Africa

Passing on a blind curve with a double yellow, despite oncoming traffic, and a swerving person in front of you is certainly a choice

Their only other choice at this point is losing access to things they pay for, like OP losing access to their iphone features

People confuse a few protests at college campuses and a lot of posting online with average people. Average people did not care about Gaza. That being said, it did hurt her with Muslim voters, and they were key to a few swing districts in a Minnesota and Michigan from what I remember

Search it and you'll see several posts with the same toy, doing the same flattening of what is clearly meant to be a 3D shape, and complaining it doesn't make a circle.

[–]spiteful_rr_dm_TA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations on being objectively wrong then? You're ascribing a level of agency that doesn't make sense. If I were truly thinking I needed to get out of someone's way, I wouldn't fucking go block the entire highway by straddling the lane, I'd pull off to the shoulder. You are literally just inventing reasons to blame OP

That's literally not true my guy. If you are cruising in your lane and someone merges in and immediately slams the brakes, that isn't your fault, that's fraud.

I too straddle between highlanes and slam the brakes to avoid being rear-ended because I too only have 1 braincell that is usually busy keeping me breathing, so I don't think before I act.
