Sorta, but that’s not usually from burning the fuel. Ethanol attacks rubber in older engines, so that can be a source of gunk.
But usually it’s because ethanol absorbs water and small engines often sit longer with fuel in them. Also, when gas with ethanol evaporates, it leaves a varnish that can clog stuff up.
Also, it has more oxygen available and can burn hotter, which is rough for some small engines, especially air-cooled ones.
Being a hundred-millionaire is not making yourself poor or even giving up that lifestyle.
But yeah, of course they don’t do it: billionaires can’t be good people.
Wonder what the particulars of that were. Usually plant-based diets give high volume, low odor.
That said, they could just be eating Oreos, nutter butters, and sour patch kids, who knows?
I’m here welding a patch onto the chassis rail of my almost-60-year-old shit box. I can’t imagine spending a mortgage payment a month on a car.
Basically the same here, but it was pizza crust dreams.
Whole milk + live bacteria!
It’s a brutally boring diet after awhile.
Any good billionaire could donate down to being a hundred-millionaire and live a life of obscene comfort for generations. Why wouldn’t you, if you weren’t trash?
Are there laws about needing consent to film minors?
Schools aren’t full public settings, but limited public forums. First and Fourth Amendment protections are much lower, for example.
And, yes, student expectations of privacy are lower, but a lot of things (like filming other students) are restricted for safety and to avoid “substantial disruption” of the learning environment. It isn’t legally justified by them being minors. Filming minors in public is generally legal.
This kid would be in trouble for violating school rules around filming (or laws against stalking or something, but that doesn’t apply here).
Legally, however, it could be argued that if his IG or tiktok or whatever is monetized, he’s filming for commerical purposes, which would require permits/releases, but that’s not what they’re focusing on here, either.
And that’s not getting into potential FERPA violations and the like. Anyway, schools are an odd space, legally.
“Bailiff, execute these men.”
Feels good to say. Maybe you should be a judge.
“VD” feels like WWII era shit.
The idea that goal was to get us sick is a canard. The likely reality is that its just that politically motivated subsidies and cultural shifts, with a healthy dose of capitalism, is what’s the culprit.
Saying it’s like a grand conspiracy would be kinda like saying early Americans’ obsession with drinking whiskey was some sort of diabolical machination. Nah: people like getting fucked up. People like doritos. It’s just dialing in what makes money on the short term.
But 10,000x yes: people can’t discern who the “them” really is. They’re not working together as much as you’d think. We’re just all living under every evil motherfucker pulling in a similar direction.
ICE is pulling a bunch of racist chuds. Imagine if the Marshalls pulled a bunch of folks who’d say, “fuck it, I’ll arrest these chuds because I think it’s right.” Same energy, different purposes.
On some level, yes. Most of the experiments were performed on socially vulnerable populations (racial minorities, the mentally ill, prisoners, etc). But for the average (white) citizen, this is a history lesson, not something that informs current behaviors. Additionally, much of that is tied to organizations like the military, which is usually seen as a different part of the government.
The FDA actually had a very good run of being relatively citizen-focused and making things safer. It’s only somewhat recently they’ve fully pivoted to the “businesses are clients” model, so a lot of people haven’t adapted.
Also, to your original point, my perception is that the lack of trust in the profit driven medical world is not that they can’t help, but that they’ll deny help if it costs too much. A common sentiment I hear is that the US has “the best healthcare in the world,” and then complaints about how the insurance process bars access to it because of money.
Yes, there are people who believe things like “they’ve cured cancer but keep the cure hidden to make money off the treatments,” but that’s not the norm.
Watching a toddler trying to get a page of a paper book to zoom in was a discouraging experience.
Hell, based on recent approaches, these articles might primarily to help train LLMs to talk “the right way” about this stuff.
Yeah! We’re usually so good at getting rid of things that hurt society. Wild that this one has slipped through the cracks.
Lighting a hay bale on fire in the road and emerging in a gorilla suit feels more menacing.
