I had the amplifier for my bass shaker die from one, unfortunately. The company was super nice and sent me a refurbished one out of warranty though.

AGM are absolutely awful compared to even the absolute worst lithium batteries, and won't last long at all if regularly cycled below even 50% SoC. LFP chemistries are a bit worse for energy density compared to NCA/NCM chemistries, but they don't contain any nickel or cobalt, and won't autoignite in the same way other chemistries will. Absolutely ridiculous they're suggesting lead batteries over better lithium options.

They have this twisted idea that basically all transwomen are burly middle-aged dudes doing drag, solely to invade women's spaces, so it will be no problem when they're thrown into prison because then they'll just behave like dudes again since there are no women to sexually assault. It's even worse because it feels like all the progress we've made over the past decade almost makes things worse, with more younger trans women who were able get on puberty blockers and transition early, because they will have zero chance of "boymoding" in prison to try and protect themselves.

Because if they did, they'd have to admit that what's formed at conception isn't a fully developed person.

The ADL is already fucking apologizing on his behalf and saying he was just being "Enthusiastic" and then went on to say “In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let’s hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead,”

Absolutely spineless fucking cowards, the lot of them.

They're 25W each, so at 150W and ~20¢/kWh in my area, you're talking maybe 35¢ per day if it's on 12hrs a day. Not insane, and probably not running it nearly that often/long.

Wait, seriously? I figured they used a much more power hungry bulb! I've wanted to get one for a while but I'm always so concerned about energy efficiency I've held off buying one because I figured it was like 150W

The story of the filmmaker is probably one of the funniest true crime stories I've ever heard. Obviously, the murder itself is incredibly tragic, because that shitstain just catfished some random guy and murdered him in cold blood purely to stroke his ego, but the story literally feels like a dark comedy.

However, the dude thought he was basically Dexter and far more intelligent than he actually was. He wrote a fucking screenplay describing himself as this super genius sex machine, while documenting his crime in great detail and claiming it was just a coincidence the murder lined up almost identically. Then the way he tried to cover his tracks were so comically inept, it only made his guilt even more obvious.

Is this the recipe for Torgo's Executive Powder?

The Model 3 released in late 2017, while the "Pedo guy" thing happened in late 2018, and the "420 funding secured" fraud was before the Model 3 even officially entered production. The "FSD in 6 weeks maybe" BS had been going on from the earliest Model S days, and I can give a very comprehensive list of all the massive red flags that'd been waving from when the first Roadster rolled off the line.

I can give a pass to anything earlier than the Model 3, just because it wasn't reported on nearly as much and I don't expect people to follow industry news to the same degree I do, but it was still definitely there for people to see if they wanted to. However, Elon has literally always been a massive piece of shit from day 1, and it's only gone downhill from there and especially after the Model 3 was starting production. Anyone trying to convince themselves they bought their car before that was "obvious" is coping hard.

I'm also adding earrings, they were basically one of the very first things I did when I started transitioning. They've become relatively common on guys, and small studs won't stand out much at all, but they're something I notice every time I look in the mirror and make me feel very femme. Plus, you can very much up how much they stand out as you get more comfortable with presenting more femme. Plus, I work with my hands a lot and can't wear anything dangly/metallic at work, and I just generally find a lot of jewelry annoying/uncomfortable to wear, but I don't notice my earrings at all except when I see them
