Everyone has already told you it’s not a precedent but I should also note the eminent domain literally only requires the US to pay a fair market price, not for them to not take it.

I mean, I believe in you. You technically CAN do something about that. It will probably break in the process though.

Look at it this way, BMI is a cross section of weight and height. I was considered “overweight” for ages because I just had tree trunk thighs from hiking and weightlifting. Like, less than 16% body fat but told I’m ‘overweight’ every time I got weighed.

The ruler was fucking wrong.

Nowadays, I’m much more of a fat fuck so the ruler is right now but only just so… I’m still under 25% when using hydrostatic!

engraved in their gun’s sights while doing the seeking?

Not sights, Dust cover. Meaning the only way the message is exposed is if the user has loaded a round in the chamber.

Which is so, so much worse.

BMW drivers have the same opinions about whatever you’re driving too… Even other Beemers. At least the second part.

You throwing babies away?

Hell, at that price point, buy two and have an awning setup in-between them to link them.

Privacy from the kids and still under $38k.

I’d get one as an in-law suite even!

Eastern Syria houses a big prison full of ISIS guys, so ISIS wants them back. They hang out and attack the prison every now and again. Countries don’t want their ISIS members back and the SDF is the only ones willing to hold them.

So, every now and again “the coalition” sends some US jets over to bomb them and in return they’ll probably attack a checkpoint in northern Iraq.

The joke was literally already made in the OP.

I heard that more commonly referring to Micro USB but, yeah, most people used to ask what phone you have, not what cable.

Roston Bynamics was found to actually be Boston Dynamics with some 100mph tape slapped over the logo.

I’m still using a 1070ti and hitting stable 60fps with newer games. Medium to low settings, usually but most slow down comes from poor optimization since I’m running a 12th Gen and regularly see medium usage on both GPU and CPU.

I like to dress up. Reminds me to be a portion of myself. I’m not me, I’m work me.

I hate to dress up. The same me who’s trusted with people’s lives is the same me who sits around in shorts and flip flops. Why lie to everyone I meet?

I like to dress up. It’s a socially acceptable mask to wear.

The ludicrousness is the point. “Capture a creature in a ball”… How close is that to Red Dead’s lasso? Could Nintendo patent capturing a creature with a rope? Does anyone hold that patent yet? No, it would be silly to try to patent something like that - yet at one point I’m certain it was someone’s “technique” while everyone else was jumping on the horses back like Breath of the Wild.

There’s body cam footage of Tyreek handing the cops his license and the police turned around and said “he was refusing to identify himself.”

So, yeah, I fucking do.

Imagine if you had a hammer and decided to use it to hit a nail and then someone came along and said “I see you’re using my method to build a house! Pay up!”

Well, you can’t patent something like that!

Imagine you open up a game engine, any engine, and decide you need to point to an objective so you decide to use an arrow. A game company says “You’re using our method to identify objectives! Pay up!” and that one is a unique mechanic?

How long has humanity been using arrows to point to things? How can you patent it just because it’s a digital arrow?

This was a while back, so not the last time but probably one of my biggest wtfs.

Anyway, In Iraq, in a tower surrounded by sandbag and hesco walls. The night guard shifts kept pissing in bottles and tossing it over the walls instead of just pissing anywhere else or just throwing the piss bottles in the trash so at the change over the Sergeant of the Guard said that we had to make the guys getting relieved stand by because they’re gonna have to go clean all that up. Mind you this is outside of the wire in Iraq - not that it’s particularly dangerous but we were still getting bombed nightly. Anyway, I rock up to the tower and let them know to standby and the SOG rolls up behind me and tells them what’s up.

I kid you not, this dude looks at him and says “Can we at least downgrade our gear?” You could probably hear my laughter across the whole FOB. He just said “Can I take off my vest and helmet before I head out of the wire?”

I shouted down “I can cover you but that won’t stop any rounds that come your way,” and the SOG just said “What? No, fuck, are you kidding?”

Then I baked in the 100+°F sun while I watched adults pick up piss bottles in the desert.

I have shorts, made by a company Pistol Lake that’s unfortunately no longer in business, that has a phone pocket inside the pocket with a snap closure.

Now, one, it perfectly fits my G100 and, two, the rest of the pocket is gigantic. Like, full size Nintendo Switch in there with wiggle room but my phone doesn’t move.

So, this may be silly but, see a tailor about adding a pocket if your clothes are baggy enough for it.

Plus, he had “concept of a plan” in his front pocket. He had that think ready. If nothing else, his debate prep got that in his head.

From my experiences it goes more like this “In an ideal world, we’d behave this way. We’re not in an ideal world though and your competitors have no problem doing this so you should know what to do, in case the market determines it’s the best course.” with a knowing wink thrown in.
