Diesels are really nice and generally get better mpg than gas when towing, but their maintenance is more expensive and they are significantly more expensive to purchase in the first place. They take more oil, more tires, and nowadays require DEF that partially negates the fuel cost savings. Plus a lot of modern diesels seem to have consistent emissions equipment problems.
They’re amazing if you’re moving very heavy loads all the time or travel over mountain passes frequently, but at only 5000lb payload I think a large diesel is overkill in any other situation.

If the kid likes photography, get him into model photography with scene setups. Build intricate nonsensical storylines as kids like to do and let it play out in photos. Easy bonding!

Idk where you’ve been, but they’ve been actively denouncing democracy since 2020 every chance they get. And continue to get elected by doing so.

Articles that will be immediately shot down by the Republican house majority and probably a few spoilers as well because they need to make it more obvious they want a real dictatorship.

Just don’t mind the complete removal of any democratic rule of law, human rights being stripped by the day, and the not so gradual descent into a theocratic dictatorship! The economy looks great!

one of the main reasons Republicans gave for voting against it was that they felt the proper venue for that was in the courts.

The courts that they knew they had stacked in their favor. That was always an intentional copout.

I don’t doubt that rental companies have been squeezed harder and harder on licensing costs specifically to drive them out so the publisher-owned services take over

Absolutely. Don’t fuck with electrical.

Probably because it rarely worked in real life! It was especially harder if your party was travelling in the spring. River currents are strong as shit and there’s no way even oxen could stand strong enough to keep it from running away during strong spring snowmelt flows.

Oh yeah, she’s fine now. She was young and impressionable, wasn’t hard to get her used to going back out there in better circumstances.

Flawless statistics!

Generally speaking most buildings can be “grandfathered in” under code such that it’s perfectly legal to rent as long as the electrical system functions and meets code for the year on which it was built or installed… shitty, but legal.

Depends, generally no. Some supermarkets do as a company policy though and I choose to shop at those that do show per-unit pricing (and are also locally/employee owned)

Sorry you had to find out this way, but yes- your hip and fly is gone!

Rust desk is super based. And their software performs MILES better than Teamviewer’s shitty compression ever did.

Oh for sure, an Android OS base is fine, but it just reinforces the fact that the actual device is manufactured shovelware E-waste that could have just been an expensive app, as the hardware itself doesn’t do anything special…

This legitimizes the rest of the restrictions by providing them a “well see we allowed actually needed abortions so all the other bans are fine” out for future challenges. Kangaroo’s gonna kanga.

If there is any game you legit shouldn’t pirate if possible, Factorio is one of them. Wube is one of the most based small independent developers out there, their code quality, optimization and game design is second to none, they have a super active community that the developers themsleves often participate in, and their game is very reasonably priced for the thousands of hours you can dump into it. The account requirement for the official mod portal is maybe the only slightly anti-user thing they’ve done.

Oh noo, your still working 3rd party mod downloader makes you enter in mods one at a time instead of grabbing a whole mod pack?

No offense, but I think this is a personal skill issue. If it were any other company doing it sure, but don’t take Wube to task over it just because you’re mad it takes an extra 5min to install a large mod pack via a 3rd party loader that I’m sure they’ve intentionally not blocked.
