Why would one want to heat the poop?

DuckDuckGo translates this as “Fecal Heating Indicator Light”

Guess it is a shit post

I had a Kenmore (I think the mfg was Char Broil) for 29 years and only had to change out the burners and the like once. The bottom tray finally rusted and it needed some other t.l.c. but no parts could be found. I got a Pit Boss pellet/gas combo at the end of last season. Smoke side is awesome, Gas side is good with some unevenness (hot & cold spots). The whole thing seems to be well built with heavy gage powder coated or anodized aluminum parts. Will see how it holds up.

Microsoft’s Bing API services (the source of DuckDuckGo’s search data) went down at approx 3am ET and has not yet returned to service. Bing, DuckDuckGo, CoPilot, ChatGPT and more are unable to use the Bing services so in turn are also not working or not working fully.

It’s easy to use the “Vote with your wallet” when you have funds to do so. People can’t vote with their wallets when they are making a choice between eating themselves, feeding their children, buying the life saving meds they need, etc. That choice is effectively removed from them, they have to go with the lowest available cost. Also consider that Family Dollar only carries the high margin items and nothing else. The local stores that carry fruit and veg do so at little to no margin or at a loss, so when they go under due to a Family Dollar moving in the community often will have no access to such items even if they (Family Dollar) stays, but to then leave the area and abandon a community after killing the local stores in the name of the all mighty dollar. . . . . They are just scum.

Family Dollar moved into these neighborhoods undercut the local stores forcing them out of business, so now these folks will have nothing. Fuck Family Dollar!

I had the same thing happen the chipboard just gave way because it could not hold up to the weight of the flatware and eventually just crumbled and pulled off. I fixed it by re making the the sides back and front out of a piece of trex decking I has left over and just cut it to the same size with the same rabbits, etc then assembled it with brad nails and gorilla glue. I reused the bottom as it was still in good shape.

Also, what is that on your counter, ice breaker? Motorcycle peg?

Federal prosecutors in Montana have charged two men with illegally shooting about

3,600 birds, including bald and golden eagles, in a “killing spree” that fueled a black market for tail feathers and preyed on a symbol of the nation.

The men, Simon Paul, 42, of St. Ignatius, Mont., and Travis John Branson, 48, of Cusick, Wash., were each indicted Thursday on one count of conspiracy, 13 counts of unlawful trafficking of bald and golden eagles and one count of violating the Lacey Act, a federal law that prohibits the trafficking of illegally taken wildlife.

From January 2015 to March 2021, prosecutors said, the two men would venture out to the Flathead Indian Reservation in western Montana, where mountains reflect off the streams and lake that cover the land, and fire their weapons at the eagles soaring above the prairies.

“The defendants then illegally sold the eagles on the black market for significant sums of cash across the United States and elsewhere,” prosecutors said in court records.

One chart posted in court records shows that the men had sold at least one pair of bald eagle wings, four golden eagle tails and one whole golden eagle.

The purposeful hunting of eagles appeared to be a convenient business for Mr. Paul, who lived near Ronan, Mont., which is on the Flathead Indian Reservation, and acted as a “shooter” and “shipper” in the scheme, prosecutors said. Mr. Branson would travel to the reservation from Washington State.

When Mr. Branson arrived, Mr. Paul would meet him and “help kill, transport and ship bald and golden eagles for future sales on the black market,” prosecutors said.

On Dec. 17, 2020, for example, Mr. Branson sent a photo of a golden eagle tail set to a buyer, court records state. The buyer purchased the set, prosecutors said, and Mr. Branson then mailed it to Texas.

Mr. Paul and Mr. Branson appeared to have a tactic for hunting the eagles, according to court records. For example, on March 13, 2021, the men used a previously killed deer to “lure in eagles,” prosecutors said. One golden eagle was killed that day, court records state, and after the men cleaned it, they placed it, and several other golden eagles, in a vehicle to deliver later.

Prosecutors obtained messages that showed how Mr. Branson would tell buyers that he was “on a killing spree” to obtain eagle tail feathers for sales.

In another message, prosecutors said, Mr. Branson admitted that he was out “committing felonies.”

Mr. Paul and Mr. Branson could not be immediately reached for comment on Tuesday, and calls placed to phone numbers listed as belonging to them were not returned. Online court records did not list lawyers for both defendants.

If convicted on the conspiracy charge, they would each face a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

The rare killings of bald eagles, America’s national bird, jolted the Montana authorities, including the U.S. Attorney’s Office, which is prosecuting the case and arguing that the men were motivated by a hunger for money.

Prosecutors did not say exactly how many eagles the men killed, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Montana declined to comment.

The case came as the bald eagle, whose resurgence is considered one of the greatest conservation stories of the 21st century, faces a new threat: lead poisoning.

All but a few hundred bald eagles were presumed dead by the mid-20th century, killed off largely by the widespread use of the synthetic insecticide DDT. A ban on DDT in 1972 and conservation efforts helped the bird’s population to rebound. The bald eagle was removed from Endangered Species Act protection in 2007, and its estimated population had increased to 316,700 by 2019.

But researchers found last year that of the 1,200 eagles they tested, nearly half had been exposed repeatedly to lead, which can lead to death and slow population growth. Scientists believe that the primary source of the lead is spent ammunition from hunters, who shoot animals that the eagles then scavenge.

Wind farms have also posed a threat to eagles. In April 2022, ESI Energy, a wind energy company, pleaded guilty to killing at least 150 eagles at its wind farms and was ordered to pay $8 million in fines and restitution.

Would you really hire an attorney named Dwight Schulte? I mean does Mr. Schrute think he can just change a letter or two and move from paper sales to Attorney?

In case your serious that you don’t get it. The bottom pic is all crustaceans that are more closely related to insects than fish.

If Haier is claiming that the integration is causing them financial harm it means that their app is collecting your private data and they are selling it.
