Welp this did it. I'm going to need you to go turn in your Arab card down at the Department of Arabic and Islamic Civilizations. Otherwise we're gonna have to send Akbar and Ahmed over.

So one of the disadvantages of Lithium-Ion batteries is its reactivity and proclivity for explosions/thermal runaway.

I would imagine sodium is even more reactive, no? Might be worth the engineering/safety challenges if the storage is better/comparable, and the cost is cheaper.

Terminator the Sarah Conner Chronicles ended on a cliffhanger and then got cancelled. I was mad at the time, but now I like it. The show was good, and if they continued on they would have eventually ruined it and turned it into: Buffy the Terminator Slayer.

I'm looking forward to the eventual movie where Rogue sucks Capt Marvel's powers out and leaves her for dead. Hopefully the writing will be good in that one.

If you want a guitar with built in everything check out the Fernandes Nomad Digi-Zo. I had one and it played really well, had an entire effects processor and a speaker built in. It even had a drum machine onboard. It had a headphone jack as well. The guitar itself is travel sized, and had really good playability. The fatal flaw that made me sell it was the fact that it needed to be plugged in, and the wire was only 1.5m so you had no mobility. It was set up for a 9V battery, but it would suck a 9v dry in 20 mins when using the speaker. I wish now that I had researched an upgraded battery pack or just gotten a longer power wire.

He posted "Fake Gnus" on twitter pretty quickly when the story came out. The more in depth denials are coming out now. The media sees something that they think will trigger an emotional response and they all run with it. The individual can deny it once, but the story was reposted/rehashed thousands of times. The fact that the WSJ originally reported it lends credence and all the other outlets just grab it and run. Imagine you're famous and posted something like this about you. Would you then go on the offensive denying the claim, because you'd never be able to keep up with the shares/retweets/reddit comments without a bot army.

There is an old army manual that says if you are ever forced to work for the enemy, try to push as many things as possible into committee decisions, because it looks like its helping, but also slows everything down to a crawl/halt.

Also died to skellies on DS1 for hours. Not my fault they hid the correct path.

Thailand is dirt cheap once you arrive. Hawaii, not so much.

So I don't want to defend Musk but does anyone have any proof of him actually saying this or donating 45 mil? Its been going around like its a fact because the Wall Street Journal posted it, but Elon called it "Fake gnus" on twitter.

When you add the cleric class you should sell it as a $1.99 upgrade. I'd happily contribute on a game that has given me some much entertainment.

It’s the ones in the middle who sway one way or another. Trump is being ungracious by continuing to post about how horrible Biden has been (in his opinion). Its very un-presidential on Trump's part, and shows the real lack of class that he is well known for. This is the kind of thing that pushes people in the middle one way or the other. It also demonstrates that he has trouble keeping his mouth shut even when he know that running his mouth is going to hurt him.
