There's another difference. Fracking produces more gas. Gas can be sold, while crude oil is useless in USA.

The oil that USA produces is exported to be refined and then re-imported as gasoline and whatever. (There are hundreds of biproducts from the process).

While I discourage both, at least gas would make financial sense for USA.

Production of crude oil only serves to dump the oil price. Which also happened last time Dumbass Trump was president, where the price went negative. Of course the industry is not interested. Besides... Texas already learned that solar power is very plentiful and cheap.

Remember Convicted Criminal Donald Fuckface Trump in 2016 using coal the same way? Save the coal mines, small town coal miners bla.bla.. All that bullshit?

Did you dig any coal since then? Did you buy any coal? Did you burn any coal?

You know what. I hope Good Ol' Donald Shit Diaper Trump saves the oil industry in exactly the same way that he saved he coal industry.

Then it's pendulum art.

Wood lice perhaps, but you'd notice if you have a lot of them around.

I used to pack eggs on pallets. We'd throw a sheet of cardboard between every 10 layer to distribute weight. I don't know the maximum height, because we only stacked them as high as the doorway allowed. About 3 meters from floor.

For a scooter... I suppose he'll have to pick them up and carry them through a door eventually, which will set the height.

A remake of the arcomage game from the inn in MM7 is available for Android. It's called archmage lite. It's not what you asked for but if you enjoyed it in MM7 you'll like this too.

My favorite theory at the moment is that life has always been here, before the planet.

Back when the universe was smaller, before mass was formed as stars and planets, the density of free floating mass was at some point high enough that there would have been temperatures around 20°c everywhere in the universe and water and other molecules were floating freely in space. At that point, for millions of years, life could have evolved in space.

When the universe expanded, mass got separated and formed into galaxies, planets and stars from gravity, while life was just dormant luggage hiding everywhere possible. On Earth the conditions once again got just right to step out of hibernation and evolve, but it could potentially happen on any other planet as well.

I like this theory because it doesn't involve as much random chance and it could mean that we can discover life elsewhere in our own solar system, instead of only hoping that future generations will eventually encounter it in other star systems..

There's a duty limit of $200 for a one day trip, unless they've changed it. Two day trips are $800.

Everything you buy over the limit should be declared and taxed. If you fail to declare something and get caught you'll be fined for smugling.

I said that Nazis are not political. I don't care if and I didn't state whether you are one or not, but you can't argue that anti-nazi statements should be disallowed for being political, because Nazis are not within a political spectrum.

In set theory, Nazis are simply not in the set that the rule is describing.

The Nazi ideologi is a dictatorship. Dictatorships aren't political. The word political in it's most basic form means "making decisions in a group". A dictatorship doesn't do that. They do participate in democratic politics only because that is the existing system and they want to dismantle that.

"Fight the Nazis" could be a political statement, because it happens within a political system and urges the system to take action politically, but it is not a statement that picks a political side. Both extreme left and extreme right politics should be against Nazis, because Nazis want to destroy all politics, including both sides and everything in between.

So, sure, its a political statement, but it's not a statement that can upset anyone politically.

The only people who can object against hating Nazis are Nazis themselves.

He is. Read it again.

It's only de facto legal until something goes wrong. If a crash occurred and someone was speeding that'd be considered a contributing factor to the crash.

Even if speeding itself wasn't illegal, there would need to be a definition of what reckless driving is, and speed in comparison to the road is a good measure of that, because it's directly proportional to the lack of control of the vehicle.

Sure it's just kids being kids. He was only 61 years old at the time.

YouGov is a poll that pays points pr. poll. These points can be used to buy actual products or gift cards worth real money. Lots of people click through them without reading the questions.

They sometimes add "click option 2 to verify that you've read the question", but even then it's likely that some percentages just click the right option by chance. On a short poll like this, they probably didn't even do the check.

The cheapest available option can differ a lot due to different animal welfare regulations. Caged eggs are the cheapest but they already are or will soon be unavailable in Europe and a few states in America.

The second cheapest is perchery eggs, which is probably available everywhere, so it'd be better fora direct comparison even if the specific regulations differ somewhat.

The European deposit protection is fixed at €100000 pr. customer instead of a percentage. They are not allowed to use customer savings for their own investment or loan outs. It's handled completely separately..

Regardless of guarantee, the bank earns a lot more on loans than deposits, so their advisors will always try to push their loan products even when you have money in the bank. They want the customer to be in debt to them. That's how banks earn money and always have.

The idea that a bank is some kind of piggy bank where they use customer deposits for investment is a bedside story. They loan money to loan out and then take a cut. It's loans all the way. Banks have no interest in plain deposit accounts except for being a point of contact to the customer so they can sell loans.

Bank advicers usually don't advice people to it either, because the bank doesn't make any money on those accounts,.

I'm not really sure you actually want my browser history on this topic. Anyway, there's very little research, besides comparing the types of milk.

Wikipedia is probably the most interesting to read, because it explains some reasoning of why it has been practiced historically. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human%E2%80%93animal_breastfeeding

Apparently it's not that dangerous. https://wagwalking.com/sense/can-dogs-drink-breast-milk

The other way around (humans drinking dog milk) is simply impractical because a bitch has 8 tiny nipples with very little milk in them, and they don't like being milked at all.

don't force open, hit "cancel" or whatever

I don't think the timer on the microwave at my job has ever been reset. People just push the "start+30" button and jank it open when they're bored of waiting. It never reaches zero and nobody presses stop.

Correct. He can't put a tariff specifically on Denmark at all. The only way to target Denmark specifically is by putting a tariff on goods that are exclusively made in Denmark. That would be a bad idea, since the main export to USA is medicine. The Americans are already moaning about the price of medicine, so it'll interesting to see their reaction if Trump raises the price further for no good reason.
