Kroger owns a bunch of other brands. Do you have one of them in your market, and it’s just a branding difference?

Watts per hour isn’t a thing. Watts is already a measurement of rate. 67 watts, running for 24 hours, is 1.608 kilowatt-hours.

The rest of your math checks out, assuming no hidden “distribution” or “transmission” fees (like I have).

For anyone unaware, the gallon size of condiments (mayo, ranch dressing, hot sauce, etc) is typically for food service. IOW, restaurants and the like.

That said, there’s nothing stopping individuals from getting it, so the point is still valid.

Imagine choosing Trump over your own wife, even if you hate her.

This won’t do it. The plurality system (often called “first past the post”) inherently and inevitably leads to 2 parties. Whenever a third is introduced successfully, it quickly eliminates one of the previous parties.

Breaking up the supply duopoly requires a change in voting method, such as Ranked Choice or Approval methods. Those allow a third party without acting as a spoiler.

It’s cringe pretending to be humor.

Elections are a cornerstone of autocracies. All of the most brutal dictators have elections, and they get 90% of the vote.

Free and fair elections, OTOH, are nowhere to be seen. And that’s a critical difference - they won’t be cancelled, so there won’t be the obvious line in the sand. Voter suppression and disenfranchisement, which is already happening, will continue and accelerate. But most of it will have a heavy coat of marketing, to convince people that those groups don’t really deserve to vote.

I’m still never going to buy a Tesla.

Most people draw a distinction between a phone/tablet vs a desktop/laptop. It’s not a distinction that can be easily defined, but most people instinctively categorize them as such.

But regardless, the issue at hand has nothing to do with that definition. The discovery process requires them to process any applicable devices that might have info, potentially including all of the above (and more). His team said they already did his phone, but that the laptop in question is not used by him. His opponents say that he has not complied with the requirements of discovery.

The judge will rule on whether that laptop is included in the discovery order.

Cooking and (basic) sewing. These are basic life skills needed for any level of independent living, yet so many are proud to be utterly incapable of either.

The hardest part to believe is that he would wipe his own ass.

The big caveat is that the BIOS must allow it, and most released versions do not.

Technology Connections recently posted a detailed video about dehumidifiers that’s worth watching. But a key takeaway is that on an AC, the hot side is outside (making the inside cool), while in a dehumidifier they are directly next to each other (condensing the moisture).

Without looking into the specifics, my guess is that it’s not routing the cold air over the hot side to keep things inside the same temperature.

Related, many small(-ish) bars have a stage for live music on Friday/Saturday. There may not be enough seating for those nights, and there’s little/no standing room, so people randomly share tables. From there, you strike up conversation with other fans.

Find the small places where they advertise the bands by name, and make sure they aren’t just cover bands. Irish pubs have been lucky for me, but there’s another place near me that regularly has jam bands.

It says “No kings”. We’re allowed to have one.

That’s part of the strategy. First, go after the small project that can’t defend itself. Use that to set a precedent that is harder for the bigger targets to overturn.

I would expect the bigger players to get themselves involved in the defense for exactly that reason.

Of note, Kirsten Gillibrand was on the ballot for a different seat. My guess is that it means something was calling the wrong database table (Senate candidates instead of presidential candidates). This could’ve been while casting votes, counting votes, or reporting results.

It doesn’t make it any less concerning for our democracy, but it’s a lot easier to explain how it happened.

Uber and the like have specific warnings about that, too. Of course, you can just ignore them and say you’re going to see someone else that’s in the ER.

You should take the hint.

Serious question: why would more visibility keep it safer? Israel continues to commit far worse crimes against humanity, very openly, on a daily basis. Why would this be any different?
