Have you seen her in the new Ro commercials? I thought the commercial featured a Kardashian the first time I saw it. Doesn’t appear to just be aging.

Also, I’m pretty sure the woman on the bottom is Laura Loomer.

It really depends on where your starting and ending destinations are. Also, if you book Acela far enough in advance, which you’re assuming for the flight, it’ll usually be cheaper than flying, especially factoring in the cost of getting to the airport.

A reporter tried this back in 2021 and there was only a five minute difference between train and flying. Trains are also less affected by weather.

Every situation is unique, but I’ve found the train to be the better option on several occasions.

You’re probably joking, but in case you’re genuinely curious: *NSYNC - Bye Bye Bye

Some real 13 going on 30 in this pic

You’re going to name constellations after things that you know well, so the fact that there are a lot of bears relative to other megafauna in northern regions means that in a way the original idea still holds, just not quite as basic.

When I first read this comment I thought your superpower was being able to taste dry cleaning chemicals in groundwater. Then I read your other post in this thread and realized it’s street markings.

100% a better way of doing it. I was just trying to answer the question of notching versus drilling a hole.

Much better. Imagine you’re bending something. The maximum tension is going to be at the very bottom and the max compression is going to be at the very top (this is why steel I-beams are shaped the way the are - to put the most material in the areas doing the most work). If you can put the hole in the middle you’re not impacting the structural integrity of the joist too much. You’d still have to worry about shear forces so you’d not want the hole to be too close to either end. Look up “castellated beam” if you want to see some steel examples.

Thanks for doing the math. That’s really interesting. If we don’t count labor costs, electricity makes up about 40% of the cost of a loaf of bread. However, if you didn’t have a bread maker and just used your oven, it would take much longer to recoup your investment. I love how efficient that machine is.

What about electricity costs? Might need to bake a few more loaves.
