Hmm, might wanna switch to semi-metallic or metallic pads if you're getting bad brake fade. They'll be louder and won't have as much bite as organic, but they work well in the wet, and they won't fade as much as organics.

This is really painful to read. One would think they'd be swapping them to wood, metal, or concrete....

We'd take it! God, what I wouldn't give for some of our roads to be slower. Our neighbors and my family lobbied the city to install traffic calming measures on our road, but they declined, unfortunately. We even offered to give them the money to install even just a set of speed humps. Our road has lots of bicycles, children, and buses. People in private vehicles shouldn't be doing 60+ on a 40 kmh road.

30 is hot, 20 is nice, 10 is cool, 0 is ice.

Honestly, with metric, 24 hour time and celcius, the easiest way to learn is just to switch to it completely.

I'm in an imperial country and still switched over to metric/24h/c just because it makes a lot more sense for most personal stuff. It's been enough years that I know much of it just ambiently. I prefer it, tbh.

This probably won't eliminate it, the efficacy is below 80%, but this will knock it down a peg or two, and it uses an existing vaccine, which saves money :)

Can we freeze someone else? I think we could fix things tbh.

Probably mechanical abrasion too. Like car tires. Or your carpets/rug. Or your toothbrush. Or your nylon/sport/athlesure wear. Or soft, non-natural blankets, haha. I bet your furniture, too...

And people are grossed out when they learn that people can have enough micro/nanoplastic in their brain to make a disposable plastic spoon (2g). :)

Low key the cornerstone of modern civilization. Imagine a city where the streets are awash in millions of people's shit/piss, the water is heavily contaminated, and everyone is constantly getting fecal-oral diseases and cannot work or be healthy much of the time. Even when they are healthy, they might have to stay home and take care of sick family members.

What happened to him in the end? I remember her sacrificing herself to the winter, but all I remember is Geralt living and then the post game DLC. Maybe I got the really weird ending, haha

Soursop is delicious. I got to try one on an abandoned beach in Costa Rica, and my mind was blown. It reminded me of delicious sour candy, but somehow fully organic and juicy. That was probably 15+ years ago, and my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

 

How did they do? Do they need root tabs? Are they fine without ever touching saltwater? Any bright light requirements?

 

A lot of stuff on commercial television came from PBS.

The first financial news show came from PBS. Cooking was really Julia Child. Even reality shows, believe it or not, came from PBS, with “American Family” in the early ’70s.

Part of what PBS does should be seen as an incubator for new stuff and new ideas.

 

They are a relatively rare size. I've had good experiences with the CST Adventures, but I'm looking for other good brands/tires too.

 
 

They grow natively, here, but not many native plant sellers seem to sell them, citing their difficulty in cultivating them.

I soaked 30 seeds for 24 hours, then planted them in a seed starter greenhouse with peat under a grow light.

Your best bets for fluoridated toothpastes are probably sensodyne, unless you can find these more obscure brands.

I hope they continue to test more adult pastes!
