An attempt at optical camouflage.

Anecdotal, but I ran a box fan in that exact orientation (facing/blowing down) for years with no issues. I used it for an overhead fan in a garage.

Of all the truly scummy things insurance companies do, this kinda sounds like the least worst. It seems akin to periodically checking your driving record for auto insurance.

I think the word you are looking for is pedant.

Better vocabulary will help get your point across better. Without also sounding like an edgy atheist teen.

You 3D print something with no serial and it’s untraceable.

Except for all the metal parts they used a debit card/paypal to buy.

Oh I'm sure there was. Unlike my neighbor who put up an official looking "No street parking" sign in an attempt to keep people from parking in front of their house. It lasted maybe 2 weeks.

Always question authority.

LPT: Not all signs are legally binding or even enforceable.

For what it's worth I have yet to actually physically see a new vehicle without an oil dipstick.

It seems to be mostly a euro thing. BMW stopped using oil dipsticks nearly 2 decades ago. Land Rover also somewhere in the late 00's.

But I agree it's a moronic idea. Not only does it prevent you from checking oil condition like you said; if it's after an oil change, it takes about 15min just to check the level (and another 15 if you messed it up). At $150+/hr shop rates, that adds up.

Yoga 11e here. Fedora (Plasma Edition) worked perfect right out of the box.

Hell yeah. This will help scratch that Stalker itch while the newest one gets a little more time in the oven.

Edit: it didn't. :( They managed to make them worse.

ABS would be better in that regard, it has a higher plasticity and less likely to fragment. But the one in the OP is PVC. ABS pipe is black.

Edit: And I'm pretty sure ABS doesn't show either.

Fun fact: PVC doesn't show up on x-rays. So when this thing turns into shrapnel and embeds itself in your abdomen; doctors get to just hunt around and hope they find all the pieces.

Don't let your memes be dreams. They just leave them parked everywhere.

OK, USA. Meant to add that. Definitely quieter overall.

With ICE being given carte blanche to do whatever they want with no oversight; would you be having a gathering? Even if you were 110% legal, would you risk getting someone who isn't snatched up?

I tried to be festive and have been blasting Mexican music for the neighborhood; but it's like 10pm and I'm old, gotta shut it down.

Ooh, energy of the gods, adrenaline surge

Won't stop 'til I hit the ground, I'm on my way for sure

Up here in the air, this will never hurt

I'm on my way to impact, taste the high-speed dirt

Is that even remotely feasible without spending more money than it would take to buy a rolling medical center?

Hotdogs in ramen, hands down.

Our poverty "treat" as kids was toast with tomato sauce and a slice of government cheese, for a makeshift pizza.

That is the mug shot of someone with absolutely zero remorse.

She said she did not want to come to the police station to talk about it because she does not really like the police
