Nah the Navy and the Marines are both under the Department of the Navy, but they do way different things. Marines mostly get rides from the Navy and the Navy don't fuck with land, they let the crayon eaters do that.
Reading stuff like this is so crazy. They just go "hey 150k is a nice big number and should be plenty of heads, let's just just take way the livelihoods of tens of thousands of actual people to make a number look nicer"
You want to know how bad Kroger is? I'd much rather go to an Albertsons. In fact, I have a Kroger owned store less than a mile from where I live, but if I need certain things, or just want a more pleasant shopping experience, I'll go the 10 minutes to the Albertsons or Hmart.
Even with the recent 737 max issues, it still remains safer to fly a Boeing than to drive wherever it is you're going. Unless you live in Japan, China, or certain parts of Europe and Asia with safe high speed rail, you're better off going with Boeing than almost anything else.
I think Interstellar has some of the best scenes in film, but it's definitely not one of the best films overall. If you could somehow package the part about Matt Damon's character into a 20 minute short film it would be fantastic.
Catapults and ballistas are different, not because of how they store the energy, but how the throw the projectile. A catapult throws it off a holder and a ballista shoots in down a track.
It's a goddamn catapult. I will not tolerate factual inaccuracy for the sake of a funny meme.
They're building it in the median of the interstate.
You also have the CA valley high speed rail facts completely wrong. They're building 100% new tracks and it has to nearly all support insanely high speeds >220mph.
My guess is the record companies refused to renew the perpetual license for a cost that Ubi could justify in order to keep the one time purchase model. Everyone wants subscription model from the top to the bottom.
Any time I see pictures of narrow SFHs placed so close to each other I have to ask, why they fuck can't we just build row homes in this country? They save energy, space, and create much more living area in the same lot size. Properly designed row homes don't even have issues with noise because they're built with firewalls that are basically the same as outdoor walls between the homes.
I think one of the things the plaintiff is arguing, which I think is valid, is that the food is not prepared the same way even if the ingredients are the same. The example they use is that the burger patty is browned on the outside but not cooked through, so appears to be a much bigger portion of meat than is actually if the burger. It's similar to the bait and switch scam of putting all the filling at the top, making it appear the sandwich or burrito is filled with that quantity, but then you open it up and it's mostly empty.
I think the argument that "we said the exact weight so it's fine" is BS because few people intuitively understand how much ounces of meat or how many grams a sandwich is, but they can intuitively understand a picture of food.
A couple were surprising but others seemed obvious in hindsight. Some of these AI models have a really specific vibe that is easy to spot. It can be removed sometimes but if the prompts don't prevent it, the images tend to have this glow and pop that many real images don't have. They're perfectly detailed if that makes sense.
Got 14/20, which I feel pretty good about, but you do this survey every year and it's gonna keep going lower. I bet even a year ago, most people would be above 75% accuracy.
Sorry I'm too used to transit communities where everyone is in the know about big international projects.
In California they are building the first phase of the high speed rail project through the middle of the state where there is relatively little demand for rail. So we will end up with a high speed line that won't get nearly as much use if they end up canceling the project. In California San Francisco and Los Angeles both are nearly equally as large and ridership will probably be dominated by trips to or between one of those cities.
I guess the difference in UK is the North has quite a few large cities that are each much smaller than London, so it doesn't have that same "bi-pole" setup. Building starting in the north would improve connectivity between those cities. But I guess my question is, would there be much demand for travel between the northern cities as compared to demand between the north and London?
