The original design had a 3/16" stainless shell and some very special glass, especially the windshield. I know that the production model is just a similar-shaped cast aluminum Tesla frame with appliance-grade stainless sheets glued to it. It's basically a different vehicle from what they showed off.

The other first-column chloride salts are mostly edible at some level. Potassium chloride is used in some low-sodium foods, I think. I saw a couple Aussies on YouTube once going down the column and putting them all on fries. Not sure if I'd be able to find it again though, it was pretty old

It's bait for the ole "I'm 18 and my girlfriend is 11" thing

One of the big pillars to resistance, especially under tight strictures, is to watch for your opportunity and make your move when you get the chance. I'm definitely seeing some sane and righteous people who made it through the loyalty purges, who have decided that this is the best chance to take aim at the king, where they won't miss and won't have to deal with him getting back up, so to speak.

I started this year, and I think you can refer to years as far back as '22 without it feeling awkward.

That, to demonstrate to the Democratic party that I don't want to support them if they actively fight against my policy goals, and to help develop a viable third party.

Divisive propaganda got me to vote for Jill Stein in 2016. I would still assert that Clinton was an awful candidate, but I should have voted for her.

According to this thing, I'm a solar panel

It may be viable in smaller seats in pretty blue districts. The losing move would be a presidential run.

Mamdani would not have won without running as a Democrat. I'm still in favor of a party coup via primary action unless the DSA can actually go toe to toe with the Democratic and Republican parties at the same time. I'll probably drop some money on them in '26, but I'm not really convinced they'll be a potent standalone group without the brand recognition of the Democratic party.

I'm successfully jacking up someone's sagging floor as one of my first solo jobs. I don't want to make being my own boss a lifestyle, but it's cool to have the confidence that I can ditch my future bosses at any time and just fly solo for a bit til I get a new one.

 
 

It's just confined, sheltered storage again at that point.

 
 

The use-cases for which they're prohibitively bad aren't super uncommon, but they're pretty narrow. I just use mine to cart lumber and gear around, but got a chance to tow something big today. I figured pulling heavy shit up a steep hill and over this weird 10" lip to get into this barn would play to its strengths, and yeah, it did. Easy peasy.
