Framework Laptop Review Video of the Day Rossman isn't afraid to tear apart products figuratively as well as literally, but he's genuinely impressed with this one. He has some criticisms but they're relatively muted and don't require the flammenwerfer as his streams tend to (most often when talking about the city and state of New York, and the governments and property markets thereof). Disclaimer: Hans, get the repair manual for the flammenwerfer. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Huge bezels? Doesn't America already have a monopoly on them? Well, we should.
In all, eight fines were issued by a district court totalling 35 million roubles ($4.26). Don't tell me you Limey prisoner offspring don't add an extra 'o' to rubles. Lie, if necessary. Though I'm not gonna dispute the $4.26 figure. That's in doollars, right?

from The Verge: "Apple has announced its all-new iPad Mini. It features a new enclosure with narrower bezels and rounded corners."
Maybe relatively "narrower" than the previous Mini? I had to look up "bezel"; it's not a word I use. Posted by: m at September 15, 2021 04:36 AM (cME97) 11

A third of California voters noted the 'vid as their top concern, immigration was second. Fuck all about the economy or anything else. People are worried about a cold.

China mines half of rare earth elements and processes 85% of production, because it produces pollution like nothing else.
There are so many rare earth materials here in the US we are scared to look. There may be enough to make our economy $40 Trillion in a few years. There is so much gas in the Gulf we are not allowed to look. The Destin Dome may have enough gas to power the Earth for another 200 years.

You would think having the balls to take out al baghdadi and sloemani would have gotten trump good standing with the brass. It is almost as if they really didn't want them gone.
Posted by: Cat Ass Trophy at September 15, 2021 05:58 AM (mdgQ7) From my experience, I would not assume or imbue our Senior Flag Officers with any special intelligence. Most I have met and worked with are at best rather mundane and not particularly smart. Unfortunately many of the "smart" O-6s are cast aside and never considered for their own Flags because they might actually speak up and preach the Truth, and many people in the Pentagon do not want the truth.

If someone from the right is ever elected president they must have the testicular fortitude to purge the government. Every senior career staffer from the military down has to go. Alphabet agencies have to go. Chop the bureaucracy in half to start, and scatter the remainder to the four corners.

Posted by: Nevergiveup at September 15, 2021 06:02 AM (Irn0L) I personally knew two Marine Commandants, Robert H. Barrow and Carl E. Mindy. In fact, I had a hand in building custom homes for both of them in Cashiers, NC, as well as a home in the same development for General William (Wes) Westmoreland. They were stand up guys and very down to earth. It was nice to have a drink or two with General Westmoreland and his wife was a most gracious hostess. I also knew Carl Mundy III. Perhaps he'll one day become the Commandant of the Marines. Posted by: That Guy What Always Says Yeah Buddy TM at September 15, 2021 06:16 AM (R5lpX) 127

I believe they make special traps for Skunks. So as to keep the mess/smell down.
But mostly I'd pay someone to do that which I won't do myself. I cannot stand even a hint of the smell of a skunk. makes me gag. Posted by: jakee308 at September 15, 2021 06:56 AM (z0px1) 136
