I've seen a guy not lose half of his hand thanks to a sawstop. The tech is good. Most of SawStop's patents have also expired, and SawStop has agreed to make the key aspects that are technically still patented open to the public by the effective date of the law.
This shit is a no-brainer and even a 5 second Google search blows up her whole narrative on this instantly. Loser shit.
I'd recommend Kubuntu. Easy to use and a pretty familiar UI for Windows users.
Might be time to switch to Linux.
"Go back to work, covid is only contagious for 3 days. Masks are no longer required and we will black bag you if you wear one to a protest."
They're already doing this and Americans don't actually care what they say, they just do what they want to. "You can't tell me what to do" only comes out when the government tells them to do the opposite of what they want. When told to do the thing they were already going to do, they just take it as permission to do it to an absurd extreme. It's not oppositional defiance, so reverse psychology doesn't work. It's individualist ideology taken to its logical conclusion.
Bizarre choice even disregarding the ludicrous premise of having a billionaire you'd want to execute last. Epic is easily the second worst EMR system made by the most miserable coders that have to keep changing shit because she demands it, in spite of every healthcare professional that ever has to use it constantly begging them to stop fucking changing it for no reason. It's notoriously and conspicuously the worst EMR system, a software category that's notoriously the worst type of software to use and the worst to work on as a developer.
Also most of the buildings on the campus are themed and extremely fucking tacky. Look at this goddamned eyesore. Imagine being forced to live in a student apartment with UW-Madison kids partying above, on both sides, and below you til 3 AM every night because you can't afford a million dollar McMansion, the only other type of housing within her living radius mandate. Then every day you have to go to work in a fucking Harry Potter castle or an Alice in Wonderland living room and then have to walk like 2 miles across a giant ass campus in the Wisconsin winter because your idiot boss demands you all have standups in a fucking treehouse. Coders are forced to go watch surgical procedures be done to embed with a doctor every so often, and then have to head back to the office and make the software WORSE for them to use because your boss has to be able to prove his team did a certain number of workflow changes and it doesn't actually matter that they're actively worse.
Lodge's stuff is great too, way cheaper but basically the same in terms of quality. The one caveat is that if you're looking secondhand, they're almost the same price. Used Le Creuset stuff is usually like $60, and Lodge stuff is like $40ish, but it can be harder to find in my experience, especially if you're looking for a certain size or shape.
Yeah, a Le Creuset is actually legitimately nice, just kinda overpriced in the same way that a KitchenAid is, because they're mostly wedding gift type things. I think part of what fucks people up about them is that Le Creusets are basically always bought with a huge discount, received as a gift, or gotten secondhand. The MSRP is like $450, sure, so when you google it it seems like a massively expensive thing, but people usually pay like half of the MSRP and then a huge chunk people who actually have them either got them as a gift for a major life event, inherited it, or found it secondhand. And they last forever, I think my parents have one from the 1940s.
Don't pay $450, get one secondhand for like $50 or $60, it's awesome and is absolutely worth it.
Not even. She bought a regular Le Creuset 14 oz cocotte which is just a nice normal sub-$50 Dutch oven, not even one of the $300 ones. Currently on sale for $36 on the manufacturer website with free shipping. Not exactly extravagantly overpriced.
If you want to criticise something, go after the kind of overpriced $160 pan
Or better yet, the extremely overpriced matching serving bowl that costed $367
She basically just went on an average Wiilliams-Sonoma shopping trip, which is for upper middle-class suckers sure but like ultimately who gives a shit if someone pays double for some cookware?
I thought they didn't have an icbm program, but maybe not?
It should be general knowledge at this point that Israel's MO is basically to tell you "no we're not doing this" while absolutely doing it and then all but openly bragging about it in Hebrew-language media.
General Itzhak Ben-Israel, former head of Maf'at (Israeli Directorate of Defense, Research and Development) said of the then in-development 3 stage extended range variant of the Jericho III "Everybody can do the mathematics... we can reach with a rocket engine to every point in the world." This three stage variant capable of 11,500km is the Jericho IV missile. That CRS Missile Survey document gives information on the Jericho III and technically the Jericho IV as the 3 stage version was spun off into that version.
I can't really give you harder evidence than a direct US government report that covers the missile in question, it's not like Israel (or anyone else) is just publishing the full spec sheets for civilians to peruse or anything. I'll admit that it does suck that the best documentation available on this is 20 years old, but feel free to submit a FOIA request.
Here's a range map for the Jericho IV (YA-5) missile, which entered service in 2019. It's closely related to the Shavit 2 rocket, which can take an 800kg payload to LEO. The Jericho IV has a "rumored" nuclear strike capable range of 11,500km. Here is a Great Circle range map, showing this 11,500km range centered around Tel Aviv.
Israel also has 5 Dolphin-class submarines, each equipped with a 200 kiloton nuclear warhead with a 1500km range, providing an offshore second-strike capability or which could be used as part of the Samson option.
The entirety of the Israeli nuclear program is considered "rumored" despite hard data on specifications existing, so it's basically the one and only time where you can assume rumored information is correct.
Source: 2005 Congressional Research Service Missile Survey report and like, constant bragging from Israeli military brass about this.
What do you mean, "what if?" That's always been the entire point.
Israeli foreign policy is holding the world hostage to demand endless shipments of weapons and support, because they'll irreparably damage the planet if placed into a losing position.
More than this, the tech will become an open standard on the effective date of the mandate, meaning anyone can manufacture them for free. The current cost vector is just licensing, your new saw will be safe and still like $500.
