I can do this as well, as can one of my siblings and my father so I assume there is a generic component. Used to call it "ear clicking" since it is audible to others if they put their ear to yours in a quiet environment.

I figured out that was the name when googling about it some years ago.

I don't want to block it. I want to see the list of things worth 300 percent or whatever.

I mean do they care a bit. If it doesn't sell at auction or goes for basically nothing they could lose whatever value they gave to you for trade in.

Could be, though most of the "owners" are from Asian countries

It's less likely that than they don't want to pay the HDMI license fee.

The liberals are not left wing by most measures. They are probably best described as slightly right. You get the usual Neo liberal economics but you don't get the regressive social issues.

That's what most people think when they buy big book cases. Little do they know those things are dust/junk magnets. No matter what you do little knick knacks and other random crap always find their way into them.

I used to do that.

Now I use a box cutter and cut out any bar codes or serial numbers off most of the boxes and put them in the motherboard box with the rest of manuals and accessories. It was hard at first but it's been good.

No way, these importers are doing it for the good of the country. They are helping make America great again.

Nuclear works well with renewables. It provides reliable base load while the renewables and batteries can be used on top of that. Plus the fuel can be sourced from friendly nations like Canada.

Also worth noting that 15 years is a long time. SMRs are starting to be built and France is planning to build a bunch of nuclear capacity in the near future which might mean the possiblity to import cheap energy or leverage the human resources from those builds.

To be fair to target most business is just talk when it comes to these types of things.

Consumers need to understand that corporate support for any particular initiative begins and ends with how it affects the bottom line.

Disney, Google, even Costco cannot actually care about any of these things. The corporate incentives do not allow for it.
