Man without arms attempts pole vault

Unfortunately the country I was born in, the USA, is also one that voted against the international resolution to define food as a human right. 😕

The highest calorie last meal

Electrician over here is killing the buzz

Isn’t that just a solar panel with extra steps?

Solving percents. I use this to predict gross and net of my paychecks when I do my budget.

Net               X
------    =    ------
Gross            100


(GrossX) = (Net × 100)

GrossX ÷ (Net × 100) = X

Example;

200             X
------    =   -------
250            100

Step A
200 × 100 = 20000

Now 250X = 20000

Step B
20000÷250=80

Therefore X=80
Also expressed as 80% of 250 = 200.

It’s also kinda handy when figuring out sales and stuff at the store, sometimes.

Depends on the car and the parking lot, for me. When I drive my mom someplace we use her van, it’s easier for her to get in and out that way. This van has a shorter front end, and no backup camera to compensate, so I back in and pull out of spaces so I have better views as I’m moving.

When I drive my sedan with my wife and kids, I pull in to spaces and back out, because the sedan has a much longer front end and a great backup camera/radar alert system that makes backing out of spaces the safer option.

I’ve actually got a setting/ system that uses this idea as a world building start. Necrobiotic by Penny for a Tale. It’s pretty cool, although i use it as a guide for world creation with DnD games rather then playing in the created system.

It lost steering power, not electrical power. Kinda like all the warning lights in your car turning on at once and the engine shutting down, even though the headlights are still on.

Yeah, if I recall the change was because so many people took them to arbitration at the same time that the cost wasn’t worth it, so they changed the policy to ‘local court’ to avoid the situation repeating while also sidestepping any large class action attempts.

Gooooood Morning Night City!

Be a librarian. I always felt like being a custodian to knowledge was a noble pursuit, and I respect librarians alot for it. I never went into the field myself because I couldn’t afford the schooling just to get a job that in my area, doesn’t pay very well. If pay wasn’t a problem? Hoo boy!

I love it! Predict that a large empire of equals will fall after 250 years.

Market myself as a powerful man of religion and/or magician, depending on the local vibe. Then use knowledge of science and tech to build myself a reclusive retreat where I can have regular baths and write books with predictions to mess with the world 650 years after I would die.

Wow, eldritch horrors beyond my imagination. Today has just been a wild ride for me.

Sounds like someone thinks there is only one choice, buy or don’t.

🏴‍☠️Harhar! 🏴‍☠️

Might need to make the location change to Pennsylvania Ave for a greater effect.
