@NanoRaptor When I was at Apple, the only guy who'd have one was the late Martin Minow, who kept one of every computer they ever made b/c he ran regression and performance tests on everything. He instrumented the operating system. Used to post lists of whose code was running well and poorly in the hallway by his office. I'll bet this tank was one of his favorites, lol.

The storylines are what they are, but the performances are excellent. I watched this for a few years. The women's matches are some of the most athletic. They are faster-paced in general than the men's matches & I like that.

Got a rebuilt. Installed it. Spun the wrong way. Took it out. Got another. Installed it. Spun the wrong way. Took it out. Stood with the clerk testing starter motors. Bad batch from rebuilders. Had one good one. Installed it. Worked fine. Finally stopped cursing.

That STALLS prosecuting #Trump, cast in stone by JUSTICES HE APPOINTED!!
His trial in FLORIDA is before A JUDGE HE APPOINTED!!
THIS IS NOT JUSTICE! THIS IS A NASCENT DICTATORSHIP PROTECTING ITS DICTATOR!!
The House is owned by the Kremlin.
SCOTUS is owned by the Kremlin.
State after state attacks women & minorities echoing the Kremlin.
"We will destroy you from within."

I think the most argumentative people were sitting in chairs in front of dozens of cellphones, posting supplied translations.

I've griped about #MLB getting greedy with their paywalls. Major league games should all be available free. Maybe on over-the-air TV so it doesn't impact cable revenues as much b/c you need to work a bit to watch a game. Kids need to see sports to get excited about playing them. I think this is a crying shame that could use some legislation.

I don't care. I want the son of a bitch behind bars. I don't care if he's arrested for swiping a candy bar.
"Wait.. that's a contradiction."
Have a nice evening by fucking off.

Former associates are telling us exactly that. He never orders. He bellows threats & intimidates people. Why would Mussolini order if he can feign innocence by just threatening, then painting the executor as crazy? He is who he is. It's up to the courts to decide if a mob boss is above the law or not. Thus far, apparently so.

Steve's Place (steter@mastodon.stevesworld.co)'s status on Monday, 09-Oct-2023 04:21:54 JST Steve's Place A carrier strike group is moving closer ti #Israel. POTUS can do this without begging Congress for money. The War Powers Resolution keeps Russia's assets, like Trump, from starting world wars for their dictator abroad, but it also stops leaders like Biden from acting effectively unless Putin attacks us. He's tied up Congress with sedition. He's hamstrung POTUS through the House's deliberate lack of a Speaker. Putin is smart. Trump is a chump.
