Pneumatic car jack with a spike on the end of it. Slide it under the middle of the car where the batteries are. Apply compressed air from a high pressure nitrogen tank. Release pressure, move on to next car.

But why is there a... rock? donut hole? geode? hush puppy? Next to the woolly mouse? I feel like it's a pun I'm missing.

If you lived 1900 miles West or East, you would see the same sky, just at different times. In this case, the difference in timezones would approximately be the difference in the sky you see. So if your husband is 3 hours ahead, he'd see the same sky about 3 hours before you.

If you lived 1900 miles north or south of each other, your horizon could be pretty different. But the stars directly overhead would be pretty similar.

If you lived on opposite sides of the equator, you might start to see different angles of the sky such that things directly overhead look flipped upside down. People in the southern hemesphere see the moon as upside down to people in the northern hemesphere.

You're looking at it with hindsight. Sure it feels like spending another million $ designing, testing, and adding additional weight, along with removing weight from other parts looks like the right decision now.

Every design makes compromises, and every failure looks stupid when looking at the end result. The team had decisions to make and if they had the extra time and money, then making the existing design more robust with more testing and reliability would have been the better solution.

Good explanation. People that design space missions have a lot of restrictions, and things that seem obvious on the surface can cause a lot of problems in practice.

Weight. That's the only actual answer.

It's extremely expensive to send weight to the moon, everything you list is more weight.

It's actually not, because the exit condition is "when you get the joke"

Don't give her sudo permission then.

Amazon doesn't make anything. There's very little on Amazon that can't be purchased somewhere else.

This is 100% a painter who's worked with this person/company before. In the contract I'm betting it says "before we paint, remove all utilities and covers from the wall, anything left will be painted"

The first six times they did the work, stuff was left up, and they spent an hour removing everything before they started. This time, they said fuck it. We told you to take it down, this is what you're getting now.

Customer service reps have almost the same information that a customer would have. The only difference is they have a few more tools available to them.

Asking policy questions or anything at this level would likely get no useful info.

Airplanes fly typical routes, so it's possible, but not guaranteed.

If the bees die off, you're going to have a much bigger problem than lack of honey.

Rear cameras are required, which means some sort of screen is required. Might as well make it a touch screen so you can cut costs on wiring and installing buttons if you already need one.

Maybe she shouldn't have voted to make him immune from consequences then.

Gemini is wrong quite often. You shouldn't rely on it to tell you facts.

If I need to double check it, then it's worthless to me.

After a month and a bit of changing your habits, a lot of folks will have found other decent options and never go back.

Even if most people return to their old habits, many will not.

40 days of change can have a significant impact on a company, even long after the boycott ends.

The referee assigns points to teams, but doesn't need to collect those points from another team or earn them to assign them out.

It's a decent metaphor.

It's also underselling what they are providing.

You get to skip all the AI garbage, all the sponsored links, and the "what other people are asking" sections and just go straight to the search results.

Privacy is the primary selling point, but the clean "old school" google interface is what I'm really excited about. I've set my default search in the browser to Leta for now.

Fired it up on the Steam Deck. It's certainly faster loading into the world than it was before.
