I agree.

I guess I'm just wondering if it's unusual.

I guess maybe this is the only place I would ever admit there were choices I made that were hurtful to others in the name of getting laid. As I've gotten older I've begun to take stock of my life. There are a couple in particular I wish I could take back. It's not so much the casual encounters. Maybe I should see a priest :)

I think about them often. Perhaps too often. I try not to but sometimes it's impossible.

Sexual partners. I'm a bit ashamed actually.

No clue why I started thinking about this last night. Decided to review my life and was shocked. 36. I was curious as to whether that number was considered high?

I thought he performed a valuable service. People needed to see just how fucked up others could be.

C'mon man. There aren't significant numbers of EVs on the roads yet to have that kind of effect.

Seems like 16 motors add far too much complexity.

I was wondering about that. On initial climb it appeared several motors were firing intermittently.

Hydrogen powered vehicles have been talked about since I was young. I thought the drawback was the perception of driving around in a hydrogen bomb.

I'm looking forward to it.

Whoosh

Nope. He is trying to say Rs loved Waco. That's a bit of a stretch. If there's blame it's squarely at the feet of David Koresh and the FBI team that ignored the negotiators work. This is simply trying to re-write history. https://www.c-span.org/video/?39845-1/texas-cult-standoff Fun begins at 6 minutes

I seem to remember it was a D in the oval office at the time.

Before the company can secure hundreds of millions of dollars in financing to start building a power plant, it will need a water supply agreement from the Imperial Irrigation District — always a thorny request in a valley whose massive Colorado River water rights are zealously guarded by landowning farmers. An environmental analysis from Imperial County is another prerequisite. Good luck with that.

Actually I do fret about school shootings. I think Mini might have more of a problem with Mickey's proclivities.

I'm not afraid in a personal sense. I just finished watching the Waco doc on NetFlix. I think many on here were either too young or not even born yet to remember. It's disturbing on both viewpoints. I hope the radicals see it as a failure on both sides and not just an ATF/FBI thing.

April 19. As radical as some have become I fear another OKC.

I'm not saying they're going to deny us the materials. I'm thinking more in terms of a monopoly of production. I'm old enough to remember the lines at the gas stations when OPEC decided to flex it's muscles.

https://techinformed.com/almost-400-new-mines-needed-to-meet-future-ev-battery-demand-data-finds/ However, supplies of lithium, graphite, nickel and cobalt are in limited, with China owning the majority of the global lithium-ion battery supply chain. In 2021, China produced almost 80% of lithium-ion batteries, whilst also controlling just over 60% of global lithium refining for the batteries and processing 100% of natural graphite. This is a cause for concern for geopolitical reasons, as well as alleged ethical reasons that suggest the production in China violates labour and human rights. I fear we'll just change dance partners from the ME to China. If you want to trust China be my guest. I don't.

Only trouble I see in the future is who owns most of the mines needed for the batteries. Anyone care to take a guess?

I'm not referring to it. I'm saying that there is no 100% solution to keeping shooters out of schools however, we can do more than we're doing right now.

Never said it was a perfect plan. But you can't say 100% that one incident predicts the outcome. The police force couldn't stop him because he was already inside.

OK. So for the forseeable future copycat shooters will continue unopposed.
