Your safe following distance on gravel at 50mph is more than that. 3 seconds is your minimum following distances on normal surfaces (used to be 2, advice has changed), you should have a 4 second following distance on gravel. https://www.drive-safely.net/safe-following-distance/
Look at old hot climates.
notice the afternoon siesta. Sleep in the shade in the hot of the day and work (play) later into the night.
notice large covered porches around the house. Spend more time outside in the breeze and shade.
notice the large windows and doors. When you are inside get plenty of ventilation-
notice the ceiling fan (often slave pulled). Be glad we now have electric fans.
notice the folding hand fans. Portable fans exist, though most of the time the hand fan is better - get one.
They were mostly had such poor insulation as to be not worth having because of the losses in winter. There is a good reason most people hove tore them out when they get ac.
A modern car is likely better if you want power. a 1962 corvette came with 250-360 horsepower. A 2024 honda accord comes with 190, not far behind for a basic ecconomy car. The modern car will have much better handeling because we have better suspention.
which is to say it does happen (see other replies), but most don’t because they are not that great. Besides if you race it something might break and you have to fix it.
It isn’t hard to make a drone. I have confidence that I could do it, and I’ve never tried. They are available off the shelf, and nobody will bat an eye if that becomes my hobby - just keep a few around and ready to fly with cameras and post photos of my various outings and I look just like any of dozens of other people I know who have drones.
I would need a place to test my first attempts, but it isn’t hard to find a farmer’s field in winter where nobody will see what I’m doing. Which is to say I couldn’t stage such an attack today, but I could next year.
They do something once in a while to convince people it is worth getting that logo.
I don’t want to donate to Mozilla, I want to donate to Firefox. I can donate to Mozilla, but little if any money would go to firefox, instead it goes to various causes unrelated to web browsers.
Code allows painting the white conductor black which is what i do. Or at least it did 10 years ago when I last checked.
Running more than one outlet on a 220 circute is generally against us codes. It will work but don’t do it.
I have a phev with only 30 miles of range - ofen I get home with a nearly dead battery and need to leave again soon - I want faster charging. I’m sure someone with 200 miles of range can be fine on 110 volt slow charging as there likely enough time over a week that it works.
5 year olds dressed up to look like a 19 year old going out for a one night stand. Kids are cute, and I was never into one night stands, but when the girl is 19 I can appreciate looking at a lot of skin.
If it is for work they should be paying for it.
Whatever the local small sales and service guy sells. There are a bunch of good ones - but the local guy will know what they need to service more often and what they can get parts for if you need it.
That is what it means to be a liberal: you respect people who are different than you to as large an extent possible. (there are limits - I don’t respect cannibal cultures …)
i’ve never had it asked of me so not every company. I wouldn’t be surprised if most ask though. That they asks shows they don’t care about getting good people by enough to figure out what questions are worth asking. Are you sure you want to work for that kind of place?
Asking such questions should be a red flag. There is a lot of research on interviews and that question isn’t on anyone’s list of useful questions. If they would waste your time asking that do you really want to work there?
There will be another election. Third parties don’t need to win to send a message and change things, as the very fact that some positions get some votes means that politicians looking to win try to figure out how to attract some of those voters next time.
Freshwater is not wasted. Hot water is wasted unless your water heating comes from renewable energy (rare), so wash as cold as possible, but freshwater is not wasted. It is trivial (though it does cost money!) to treat waste water from your cleaning (including your toilets) and turn it back into drinkable fresh water. I know cities generally dump their treated sewage back into the river, but it is drinkable water and the next city downstream will take it in.
That is my culture. Why do you have so little respect for my culture as to think I should follow your values?
I have seen variations of this debate in letters from around 100. I’m sure it goes back much farther.
The NRA was long the organization with the least wealthy members. It wasn’t money that made them powerful (though they had a lot) it was they could show their average donation was an order of magnitude less than just about anyone else. They had lots of little guys donating money and that scared politicians - money is second to votes and all those little donations meant the NRA had a lot of voters who wouldn’t be swayed by any amount of money.
they do open windows. They also close them. When they do that depends on the situation.
livewise they sit outside at times. They also sit insides.
There are many different hot climates with different situations. You cannot make a blanket statement. And you cannot look at what they do today when ac is common to figrue it out (where at is common)
