Also the US is at about 40% carbon free energy production (renewables + nuclear), which is pretty swag.

Depends on what “high capacity” means in this report

Also

  • Beware of your target and what’s beyond it: Paper targets will never stop a bullet. You best have a backstop that will, especially if you live somewhere flat.
  • Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready and about to fire. Even when you’re reloading and have the muzzle pointed down range. Not until the moment you need to fire.
  • Alcohol is for after your day at the range and when everything is put away, absolutely NOT before or during. Operating a firearm under the influence of drugs/alcohol is probably the only thing more dangerous than operating a motor vehicle on a highway under the influence

Agreed, I should probably check that with my pi-hole.

Even though those show up on their website, none of the 4K models are available on Amazon/Walmart or at best have very limited/erratic stock. I only see the 75” one in stock, and only on Walmart. Furthermore, they are just simply worse quality than a comparably priced smart TV. For the same price as their 55” 4K HDR TV you can get a TCL that’s also QLED and has local dimming, plus HDMI 2.1 and google TV do you can put it in a dumb mode anyways. So really there isn’t a great reason to get one of these.

I have a google tv, and the “Basic Mode” when you set it up or the “Apps only mode” both are a lot better than the overstimulation nightmare that is most smart TVs (and a google TV with normal settings)

I did some research and couldn’t find any evidence that it does. That could be a capability that the Space Force doesn’t want to be public though

In all fairness, she does really, specifically, need an edge in Pennsylvania if she wants to win.

It looks like NASA has flown payloads onboard the X-37B before, so I think it is well within possibility that they could get some room on board for Mars samples during a return. They might not even need to “book” a whole flight as long as the mission has room/capacity for the samples aboard, and the sample container could probably hang out in a medium orbit for a while after getting back to Earth, awaiting an X-37B mission to come up at its own leisure since the orbiter could do all of the rendezvous maneuvering on its own
