LAst episode was epic. Just bumping so spoilers aren't in the previews.

Square, aka robertson bits, resist cam out a LOT, as others have said. Their also as far as I can tell are harder to strip than torx. The first place I ever encountered them were shitty zinc screws for window AC units. They were impressively durable for a screw that would not have survived a screw gun in philips. The reason square drive isn't everywhere and torx is is that robertson seemed to be carpentry oriented at the start, and thus only specified a handful of sizes appropriate for use with a manual screw driver. Torx goes up to t100 which is pretty frikin big for what it is. PErosnally I hate the double square screws. Look like torx. Not torx.

Please, tell me what investment doesn't have the potential of 100% down, or infinity % up? Everything COULD spiral uncontrollably upward. It won't though. Nothing ever has. Arguably, outside of having applied that reasoning to early mining, bitcoin idled at about $1000 a coin for years. Then it went up to 19k. So it peaked at 2000%. IT is currently at ~300%. Your estimates of a 10,000% upside are pretty far off. It meets no definition of a ponzi scheme. But have you made any money? The problem with all the coin markets is that they are unregulated and the capitalization is small enough that pretty much any investment bank and quite a few hedge funds can manipulate it on any given day. So the game becomes can you tell when they are going to move. Coin markets other than bitcoin are also very vulnerable to straight up fraud. Between the fraud potential and the fact any time there's a big move, governments look at the market for regulation means there is a chilling effect on forcing big moves. So you have to front run the big players, and you have to hope the chilling effect hasn't permanently devalued the market.

I don't know if you are taking a shot at my nitpicks. But the franchise is pretty much entirely the world building. The world building has been done over 6 films. The core ot TLJ's plot ignores a bunch of the world building. Plus the plot is just plain stupid. PLUS the plot wastes 70 minutes of my life doing nothing, and doing it in a not particularly cool looking way. So I'm not even getting spectacle out of it. The suicide attack was stupid, but at least it was cool looking. And stupid or not, the franshice has not worried about fuel to get anywhere at any point in the series. Cribbing from BSG for your A-plot while ignoring all world building to date is not a mark of franchise success in my book. We'll see how it goes. Solo took a nice fat stinky one in their bank account. We'll see how this one does.

Well, hopefully the episode was just largely uneventful because it was putting all the players in position to get on with the narrative. I have enjoyed the show, but I am ready to reach the end of this tale.

Be the squeaky wheel. Just don't make it adversarial. Become their new best friend. Check in regularly. You have a new hobby together! Make regular calls to your new friends. figure out when lunch is. Call a bit before that and drag shit out talking to your new friends while being nice and sociable. Let them know that there's no project too big you can't work it out with regular teamwork!

AVB's advice is pretty solid. He is especially right about not taking their first offer. They will usually be able to put up numbers to justify it, but it will represent less than 100% of work and based on my experience will 100% not cover the market rate in NJ. They know this. You need someone on your side who knows this as well. I would add that your friend should get out his copy of the policy. Most of them have some sort of language about mold these days. Either eliminating their liability, or limiting it. I would also stop throwing the word flood around. If your insurance are not assholes they will tell him this as well. this isn't a flood, it's water damage. Floods are floods and they don't insure them. While any misunderstanding should be rectifiable, using the F word is just asking for your life to get more annoying.

I'll give you my middle of the road take. It's a straight up BAD movie. For the people screaming SJW, I'm not sure why the SJW people would be happy. Ray and Fin fail horribly at everything they are trying to do in the film, and what they are trying to do makes little to no sense. And it's not like anyone can feel good or bad about it. The entire universe is populated with morons in this one as far as I can tell. As for straight up bad. 1) The entire central premise of the movie. The A-plot. Is that the good guys are being chased and running out of fuel. A concern literally never expressed previously in the entire franchise. 2) On of the b-plots is initiated based upon a certainty that none of the players involved in has reason to be certain of. In fact the precede this plan of how to exploit a technology technicality by saying we know nothing about how they are doing what they must be doing with said technology. 3) They spend 70 minutes on said stupid ass b-plot. It is also a 70 minute head fake for no dramatic payoff other than getting the main cast back in the same place to face the same problem they did at minute 15 of the movie. 4) Snoke was the big bad? Nope. 5) Darth Whiny was the big bad? Nope. 6) Is Ray the big bad? Nope. 7) Who is the big bad? I don't know. Lead int he drinking water? They are all mind numbingly stupid at this point. 8) Takes perhaps the one moment of emotional impact where Leia gets sucked out of the ship into space, and gives you magically flying space leia. 9) Resolves the whole movie by having a nobody character we spent no time with perform a suicide attack on the bad fleet with effects so devastating it makes you wonder why the entirety of space weaponry isn't warp torpedoes, and why you would build any remotely large ships and place any of them, or not so large ships even, remotely near each other in space. Leia and said charcater act like this was the plan all along. 10) Despite this devastating attack. There appears to be at least 2/3 of big ass start destroyers still intact and ready to kill their asses. Yet for some reason don't go on to kill their asses. Things which are debatable but posisbly good. 1) Kill off all the old cast. You have to have them exit some way at some point they are too old. However they DELIBERATELY did not kill of the one old cast member who is actually DEAD. So... 2)Present the possibility that the Jedi are just as bad as the Sith in that they are both trying to unbalance the force, and balanced is the nature of the force, so it inevitably has to screw over both sides. But it buries that message deep.

That's nice and all, but probably not a sustainable business model at $35k a ride. I think a lot of EV fans get butthurt over people saying EVs aren't viable because they confuse it with saying it's bad vehicle. It's a niche vehicle. That doesn't mean it's bad, it means it's not viable for a lot of people. Personally, I think electric trucks and off roaders should be inherently cool. Electric motors are super good at doing what make them good. It's just that batteries aren't yet, at least not a price point that has you coming up with a sub $125k truck.

I've owned a couple of the systems where the blade is clamped and you get a sharpening stone on a stick where the stick gets stuck into an angle guide. They all fail the same. If you aren't starting with a knife that that has parallel flats on the blade in about the right place, they don't really help you get a repeatable angle. Without getting a repeatable angle they really aren't doing the one thing they are supposed to be helping with. they also all completely fail on more faceted edge designs. It baffles me that we keep repeating the same flawed design but with ever increasing price tags to convince people the part that doesn't work is not broken this time through.

You are wrong, but because you are right. On paper, I agree with you. It sounds like it should work that way. However.... Because you are right about the pinky having undue influence. I find that in people who have a tendency to milk the grip, a shorter grip can often give better, more consistent results. This is because we don't really control the recoil on a gun. I have yet to see someone who stops the recoil form moving the gun. We manage it, and that pinky only adds so much to the brute strength equation, and we don't dedicate a whole lot of brain to fine motor control of the pinky, so it's really not doing the heavy lifting when it comes to management. It's much better at screwing things up before breaking the shot where we give the least capable finger outsized influence because of that increased leverage you mention. The right answer is make your pinky less retarded, build up your control of it, and stop milking the grip. But the short grip can actually be some shooters' crutch just as much as a full size gun. If guns were like wrenches, hammers, baseball bats and tennis racquets where the fingers can essentially go completely around the grip, I don't think this would be an issue where results can vary, but guns aren't like that. Post breaking the shot, it's a majority of brute force. More fingers better. Pre- breaking the shot, it's about subtlety and control. And if you look at things that need that. you find a whole lot of instances where you use three fingers and tell the pinky to go fuck off because it's useless.

Reading the faq, it looks like ATF declared it a shotgun. Which means in NJ, 6 round mags. Not sure I would want to own one in the presence of other AR patttern guns given the NJ AWB's constructive possession bits.

Mixed parts and failed ideas? I mean I can see how there is zero up side to sticking the mustang name plate on a crossover. You will gain nothing but backlash. That bit aside though, SUVs and CUVs aren't failed ideas. Being a new EV, it will likely share less parts bin staples than other models. Unless yo mean the mustang. Because the notion is that for the next one it'll be based on an SUV chassis, kind of like the taurus before they killed it.

You know something? We have never had the middle class flourishing with high taxes while not being on the gold or silver standard. I will also point out that as a percentage of GDP, payroll taxes and state income taxes have risen, and federal income tax remains about the same as it has been historically. So we are taking about the same percentage of money out the system, and that percentage a slice of a significantly larger pie. The middle class flourished not because they were being taxed to death, but because a larger chunk of that smaller GDP came from actual businesses doing things that employed people rather than coming from investment earnings and highly productive knowledge work.

Did I say evenly? That 3.5 out of 4.0 means they are still at the top of the academic heap and get to keep their scholarship.

whose trigger is in it?

Then define socialism. because you have marxist socialism, which is the step between capitalism and communism. Then you have the dictionary definition of socialism "any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods" Well, if the grades are the goods, how does it not fit?

How is it not. Why shouldn't those students who only get good grades because of their privileged upbringing that gives them a more robust academic background than their less advantage peers pay some back to level the passing field. Doubly so for the fiscally privileged students that have more study time and less academic stress due to wealthy family or scholarships and grants? From each according to their ability, to each according to their need. Seriously. If you are in a scholarship that only needs a 3.0 average, everything else is gravy and should be given back to the community for the greater good. You don't need it, and to paraphrase Obama,you didn't get those grades yourself.

There are literally tons that will GREATLY exceed your needs. I'd go for simplicity and either ubiquitous batteries or maximum power. For example this sucker keeps it simple. No wires. 18650. 1800 lumens. https://www.batteryjunction.com/nitecore-hc33-headlamp.html The ArmyTek tiara is like 500 lumens off a aa.

Yes and no. Initially I agreed with you. However on further consideration I believe there is a small and potentially pertinent area of overlap. The argument is that given that possession in the home is clearly protected by heller, and that constructive possession is a crime, it is impossible to comply with the law short of firearms being excluded from the home. NJ permits are required not for possession, but transfer. However, constructive possession is still a thing in NJ. given the laws we passed about person to person transfers, and what constitutes a transfer in NJ, one can reach the same conclusion. Without exclusion of firearms form the home, everyone in the home is potentially guilty of constructive possession, and being in possession without a legal transfer is forbidden. There's some i dotting and t crossing to be done, but I suspect you can reasonably reach the same conclusion.

It's boxed hornady ELD ammo. It's a long case. and bigger than 6.5 creedmore. That leaves 300 prc, 300 win mag, or 300 normal. I think that is a shiny mark due to pressure and not a belt, and I think the necks tapers too fast for norma, so I'm going with .300 PRC. Also .300 PRC is a recent introduction to the ELD match lineup of loaded ammo, so it wouldn't surprise me if they teamed up with other manufacturers to drop a turn key, off the shelf 2000 yard setup.

looks like it's either belted, or the pressure is stressing the case web. Belted.. .300 winchester magnum. Unbelted .300 prc. Given the presentation, I'm going to guess .300 PRC.

Well the internet kicked the shit out of the don't trust anyone over X concept. Quick, what's the average age of this board's population? Unless you regard this place as overly hostile, your first instinct was probably to assume the composition of the membership is similar to yourself.
