Even in more traditional Mexican restaurants in the US where the staff obviously grew up in Mexico, if you ask right (in Spanish!) the staff will admit they don't eat there because it isn't authentic.
I get on the first airplane to Europe and apply for political asylum when I get off.
Unless you already have strong connections and relationships with everyone else in the Kremlin you won't last very long.
Do you really need all that? Is there a local copy shop (often public libraries, drug stores...) that have some of those services? Sometimes they have better quality printers (photo printers for example). While you pay more per page, do you really do whatever it is enough to make it worth the cost of the printer vs just going elsewhere? There are many middle grounds (black and white printer. Use your phone camera as a scanner) that are clearly worse than what you want, but still good enough for most purposes and you can use the better option when you need it.
The answer to the above of course depends on your specific situation so there isn't one right answer. It is always work thinking about though.
None get all counties but the libertarians have a good number
Well it is 25 xears old an has many age related issues. It could ose a replacemenc but the options are lacking so I'm rapairing it
Guess I won't be buying a Ford. If they won't produce the cars I want I have to go elsewhere. Keeping my 1999 on the road is getting expensive, but I see no other option. (though my ebike covers about 90% of my needs, that last 10% isn't much so cheap is important)
Successful third parties run national candidates because it gets attention for their local candidates who do win elections.
Unfortunately your only option is supporting Genocide. Hamas has made it clear that their goal is genocide of Israel. Israel pretends to not support genocide anyway. There are people who don't support genocide in the area, but they are not the ones who have power.
One more reason I'll be voting for a third party. I hope enough people join me that it sends a message. Ideally enough that a "safe" state turns out a loss for who it is safe for - thus forcing those who are listening to loud voices hear the quiet ones.
Power lifting requires practice of technique to win. However with just body weight and the right technique to make it better you can get as strong. Few people try this though as the good body weight exercise is hard.
Though power lifting can substitute rocks which are easy to "make" at home. (you cannot maintain perfect form with rocks though so you won't win competition, but if strength is the goal rocks work)
Don't get me wrong, I'm not against a good set of weights, if you want to buy equipment I'd put good weights at the top of the list of equipment to buy. However you don't need them if you get creative with body weight and are not trying to win competitions (unless the competition is really poor, you need to practice with the right equipment to win).
It isn't hard to exercise without fancy gym equipment. Every result you want from equipment can be done with body weight and minimal equipment you can make yourself.
The obvious thing is this was poorly defended enemy territory. By attacking here they got through - Ukraine has entered more land in the last 2 weeks than Russia in all of 2024 (entered does not mean control).
This does several things for Ukraine that we know of. there may also be things it does we have not thought of and Ukraine isn't talking about.
It forces Russia to counter-attack to get their own land back. Defense is generally easier than offense so Ukraine can slowly retreat while inflicting lots of Russian losses. Those are troops that don't attack in Ukraine. Better yet, Ukraine doesn't really care to hold this land so they don't have to make as hard of decisions - if troops will be lost retreat (troops will be lost, but hopefully not as many as there is not much value in trading lives). They can also rig traps that would destroy the land, Ukraine isn't going to pay to rebuild it after the way so not their problem.
It pulls Russian troops out of Ukraine. Even after Ukraine withdraws Russia will be forced to keep more troops on the border to prevent Ukraine from doing this again. Those are troops (including supplies) that cannot defend in Ukraine and in turn that makes it easier to take back their own land back.
It gives Ukraine something to bargain with. "you want your land back, we wants ours, lets just trade and call it even". Russia isn't interested in any bargains at this time, but this gives Ukraine something to work with when they are, and also gives Russia reason to be interested. Overall nobody thinks this is a useful thing at the moment (Russia doesn't care), but it is a consideration.
Last (because you are most likely to remember what is last this is what I think is most important) this improves moral. Ukraine has been slowly losing land for months now - this gives a great moral boost: we can take land from Russia. Both defending troops celebrate and then fight harder, and also friends (NATO) can say aid isn't a lost cause as Ukraine can fight back.
Tank losses declined seriously half a year ago. It isn't clear if Russia is running out of tanks, or has finally figured out how to use tanks without losing them. (most think it is the former - they have run out of old tanks that can be restored quickly - but it isn't clear)
Sure, but if you cannot get past the outside gate the inspection wasn't worth much. (The Army would have no problem opening the gates, but that would probably be worse than whatever evil they are doing inside)
It wasn't clear that windows 95 would beat OS/2, and OS/2 was clearly the better so I installed that over windows 3.1. Then in college I got introduced to BSD. I still prefer BSD, but sometimes linux has things that BSD doesn't so I use linux in places.
Often they have to do this. Most places that you would inspect have bio-security, safety, or other policies that need to be followed for good reasons. The first step of any inspection needs to be find out what those policies are and follow them. Generally the policies are reasonable and based off of sound science, but they are just different enough from place to place that you need to check. Often the place you are inspecting will arrange someone who knows the policies to go with you - but they need to ensure that person isn't on vacation (or otherwise doing something that must be done). Of course checking in like that tips people off that you are going to inspect.
If you enter a barn your clothing needs to be disinfected, you need to shower, and you can't enter any other barn for a day (most farms with this policy have more than one barn so the inspection will be several days or you needs lots of inspectors). A forklift will not see you, so you need to understand where the safe places are so the forklift doesn't run you over.
I am for surprise inspections. However there is very good reason you cannot have them despite the value.
They have been building a lot though, many lines are supposedeto open. If they are enough is an open question of course.
They could plan and build a few more lines in the next few years if they wanted, but it requires vision and such that we don't see in the us so they won't. it is still possible.
People mostly didn't ride horses, they had the horse pull wagons but they rode behind. You rode a horse where speed was needed, but that meant you have a series of places to trade out your now-tired horse.
Even horse above is wrong - you probably had oxen to pull the wagons not a horse. Oxen ate a lot less and where a lot easier to work with in general so they would have been preferred. Mules, donkeys, or even goats may have been used as well. There are pros and cons to all choices, but in general the horse was the most expensive and used only where it matters.
The horse was used in the American west above the others though. The prairie soil needed a plow that was pulled faster than the others, and so a horse was needed to break the ground. Cowboys road a horse because in the case of a stampede a horse was tall enough not get you killed (assuming you stayed on it), and fast enough to divert the herd. The above is specific to the situation in the American west and doesn't apply elsewhere. (note the that cowboy stampede situation is similar enough to knights in battle that both would use a horse despite the disadvantages)
The reason we mostly think of the horse is once the plow caught on in the America west it was enough better that much of the rest of the world started adopting it. This needed the industrial revolution to be under way though, and of course the tractor and automobile were not far behind. Before the industrial revolution were thousands of years where the horse was a rich person's toy, most didn't have them and if they had animal labor in reach they would want something else over the horse.
Everything you do to become a monopoly is legal (or at least should be - there are lots of illegal things you can do along the way but for discussion lets assume/pretend they don't do those things). However it is not legal to be a monopoly.
Your drones, but what about the guy farther down the line who might be closer or have longer range drones.
