Same way we can fund everything else: tax the rich, cut mitary spending.

The ones with regular wheels might be the better ones. Some fraction of them have a different set of off-road tires they swap to rather than drive on 40" all the time.

They're called spongmonkeys and I'm pretty sure they're modified tarsiers.

They abandoned the spices when France did. The reason? Poor people could also afford spices so it was no longer a status symbol. The new status symbol was simple meals of very fresh meat and vegetables cooked with complicated methods requiring many hours and loads of practice.

Internet Europeans seem to think we don't have bakeries or breweries or dairy...ies... so it's only fair to assume the inverse.

The US is too big to have a unified cuisine. The UK is hard to compare to because even their accents vary much more across a small geographic area, their cultural regions are strictly divided and enforced thanks to deeply entrenched classism and social pressure.

Also I just flat disagree that cuisines like Cajun/Creole or Tex Mex or Southwest/Santa Fe don't qualify as true US cuisines.

Every few decades? Washington state has around a dozen noticeable quakes every year (out of about a thousand measureable events) They cause damage every six years or so. I'd be surprised if coastal California was statistically very different.

But the gun makes their dick hard.

I'd say it's more than a theory. We're told that "only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise" and Vader put a tracking device on the Falcon (seizing the moment when his interrogation wasn't getting results) so it was imperative that the intruders get away. That's just reading between the lines.

Later Star Wars media missed the memo and had them suck. Probably because blaster bolts look and sound cool and you get to have more of them if they miss a lot.

That's the gist of what they're taught, yeah. It shouldn't take much digging to find "training" videos that are essentially: cop walks up to man in parking lot, man pulls a knife and lunges at cop instantly. The moral? Everyone is ready to kill you.

You could always buy used. Something 10-20 years old but popular so there's lots of spare parts still.

Many? It's laughably fake.

Only if you trust the French more than the guy who named it.

We should re-do Romanization. Start over, sound it out, have a big Anglosphere conference to decide on what letters make what noise and stick to it.

My general problem with touchscreen controls is chance of error and lack of feedback. I want buttons. I don't want to accidentally do a thing because I idly swiped at the screen while looking away briefly.

I hate gesture controls. Even more fiddly and imprecise than fake buttons. Pinch zoom, scroll, and change page are more than enough.

We're the only mammals capable of keeping milk-producing animals and collecting that milk. It's a lot of work. No other animal plants wheat or maintains berry patches eithet. Kind of a crap argument. We aren't "meant" to do anything in particular, but we're adapted to surviving on a huge range of food.

The dairy industry is a ridiculous monster but keep the criticism empirical.

Hafthor was eating approximately 10k Calories a day at his peak. I'm not talking about a three-days-a-week gym bro I mean people whose entire life is physical strain.

US dairy lobby is bonkers. Not as bonkers as the corn people, but close.
