They've always been "that acquaintance".

You only know each other for mutual benefit or a mutual friend, but when that's gone, there becomes literally no reason to hang out any more.

Oh god. The mother has 5 fingers.

5 fingers, not including thumbs...

Its not difficult and its done all the time

The shares a company gives me as a reward are taxed the instant I receive them and deducted directly from the shares.

E.g. company gives me 20 shares but the tax is worth 1 share. Company sells that 1 share on my behalf to cover the taxes. I receive 19 shares in my account.

Clearly a skill issue here...

Everything wrong with Pentagon wars summary:

TLDR, the guys opposing the Bradley were a completely loony bunch who thought the strategies and technology of yesteryear is the way to go and they were so in love with the M113 that they thought it would make a good aircraft.

Longer option, hilarious too:

Here's one that's happening before our very eyes and very rapidly. Drone and drone warfare.

We're seeing not just how the technology evolves but also how the strategies in their usage are changing.

No u!

OP's instructions are incomplete and will lead to a stall, especially if car is uphill.

You are right in that most cars need to be given gas between half clutch and full clutch or it will stall. There are some vans and trucks where the engines have enough torque to allow you to dive from half clutch to full clutch without ever giving it gas. But again that would never work uphill.

Wait. This isn't correct. You need the handbrake engaged to start this process.

You do this on a hill and the car is going to roll backwards and you'll never get the engine in gear without stalling it.

1. Clutch fully in, Foot brake in, handbrake engaged
2. Footbrake off, right left shifts to gas pedal (in case you need to rev the engine for more power)
3. Gently back off the clutch until you feel it bite into half clutch. Slowly release the handbrake as you progress into step 4.
4. Gently give it some gas while you continue easing off the clutch until clutch is fully engaged.
5. If you are going uphill, you need to give it more gas in step 4.

Edit: this might be helpful.

That's why they'll fail. Thats why so many movies with a great IP to back them fail. They become more interested in profits than telling a good story.

And thats why great movies like the Lego Movie and Puss in Boots the last wish came out of left field and became huge hits. Because they focused on a great story first.

lemmy.ml apologists incoming

Generally reminiscent of calamari. However if FTL fluid pouches are perforated during butchering, it can result in the flesh having hints of cherry or apricot with a splash of time dilation.

We recommend the less adventurous amongst you avoid the quantum entanglement seed pods as its certainly an acquired taste, akin to the flavors of lutefisk or durian. Overconsumption can cause unwanted side effects such as experiencing CMB-radiation flashes in your peripheral vision.

Please note that the tentacle like appendages are not suitable for human consumption as they contain high concentrations of element 166. Which is theorized to induce quantum tunneling at the macroscopic scale. May result in indeterminate teleportation to areas outside the observable universe or potentially other realities. Do not consume.

If you're on Android, go to settings and network, find and enable private dns mode using this host address

dns.adguard-dns.com

It should block the majority of ingame/inapp ads, etc

Edit: Minor Caveat. This isn't fool proof nor is it 100% effective.

But takes you all of 30 seconds and does not require root permissions, side loaded apps, etc. Its all about the cost benefit ratios.

Did they fire the scientist in 2015 and ask an intern to make the model for 2016?

Good luck.

I think this person is on the opposite end and is overwhelming him/herself with too much supplements...

Then the winged hussars arrived!

The micro plastics will probably last a couple hundred years but the plastic shopping bag as a recognizable object will typically disintegrate within 5-10 years. It may last a bit longer being crocheted like that, assuming a good portion is protected from UV light.

Too bad RDR2 online is dead and abandoned by the devs

Doesn't matter. Onus is on them to prove its ethically sourced and they fail miserably at that.

Nowhere on their website does it detail they have any sort of processes to ensure the skulls are sourced ethically. It doesn't seem like any skulls are traceable or that any consent was given for the skulls to be sold commercially.

In fact this statement from their president seems to indicate what OP is saying is accurate.

All natural bone specimens are legally and ethically obtained. Suppliers World Wide send skulls that would otherwise be discarded or destroyed, as they are collected.
