  • I mean they cant legeslate us away. That is basically impossible. If you had to you could actually castrate yourself and make your own estrogen by breeding rabbits or something. This is actually a way that people in the ancient world transitioned. Obviously not ideal but there are tons of cis women who have to take estrogen. Probably one of the most perscribed medications. i can also transition without hormones. I have been transitioned for years really before i even started hormones. Trump wont be in power forever. The republicans are dying out even if they are making one final push and have tons of propganda. Lying to people only works temporarily. People wise up. They resent liars. Most people are decent even if they dont understand many things. They know in their hearts that they should be good to people. Republicanism is dying for other reasons outside of their control. There are no republicans anymore. They killed class, they killed land ownsership with their greed. There is no reason really for anyone to be a republican anymore. Everyone is poor, even the upper middle class.










  • The tricks are very exspensive, ones like in this pic are in the millions. Stuff in this range of price is generally repaired for a long time and kept in service for decades. There isnt much on the truck that cannot be replaced. They are also suprisingly strong. This one is probably rated to carry about 80 tons, which means the truck probably weighs atleast as much. So you are looking at 160k ibs before being loaded and over a quarter million pounds ehen loaded. Every part of that truck has to exceed the shock forces of that at several gs. Thats why replacing them is more of a long term process. We have a bunch of 40 ton and some heavier rock trucks. We replace them about every 10-20 years. These trucks are more like mining trucks. They usually work in big mines since you have to take the truck apart to transport them on highways or move them on rail.

    Many lieces if equipment half this size will have engine replacments, and other magornsystems in its lifetime. Sometimes axles, transmissions, even cabs and stuff. Companies usually keep some as spares when they get severly damaged to use as parts.


  • Some people just arent cut out for certain jobs. There is no good reason to ever flip that truck that way. Where i work at the only thing that will really get you fired on the spot is doing something really dumb like this, or putting someone else in an unsafe position. Also a few hundred grand is the low end. If the driver is really dumb and xoesnt cut the engine off as soon as he gets done rolling, he will ruin the entire engine which will cost close to a million just for the engine alone.



  • Flipping it back over will be extreamly difficult, probably will require several excavators. Then they will have to inspect the engine, to see if its damaged. If it needs parts, it could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to repair. The truck may need parts or welding as well. They will likely fire the driver who flipped it and replace him with someone. You can learn fairly quick.



  • Its because of two things. One is that people hog the passing lane or try to pass slowly so it takes them a few minutes to overtake a few cars, and also because people drive at different speeds. Some people drive at the speed that feels comfortable, others drive the state imposed speed limit. This creates pockets of dense traffic, and then people try to pass, but there is always the person who tries to pass as slow as possible because they are going a few mph over the speed limit.

    Its really just a bad combination of laws, and drivers who are terrified of breaking the law, and people who dont know how to drive correctly in a way to reduce traffic. Also many people are just never consider that others also need to use the roads. They don’t care about traffic. Some people also have health issues, like blindness, or mental handicaps, which means driving at interstate speeds is about all they can muster.


  • Its a horrible law, although there is no punishment, it just normalizes the idea of persecuting and shaming innocent people. The laws are not good when you use them to micromanage your neighbors lives. Laws are supposed to be for taking away the need for violence from society and putting judgment into a transparent and safe and strict process. All this type of stuff just gives the state more power to harm people it doesnt like who are doing nothing actually wrong. Like all laws this will only be selectivly enforced against people the powerful dont like. The reason countries really start to become bad is when you get one group of idiots in power who think they know everything, who think it their role to mold humanity into their idea of right and wrong. People lose their motivation, their creativity, their will to build things, because their life becomes a benign hell of just being a host for elitest parasites. It starts with elitest assholes telling you how you are allowed to spend your free time, and what types of haircuts are acceptable, and what types of books you are allowed to read, mass zurveliience, propganda on every type of media you consume. Silencing disidents. It ends with a society where nobody cares about anything. Nobody wants to work. There isnt anything to buy anyways. Creativity at first and then the good genes in the population just die out. The human race is truely fucked. The greatest filter we have is our complete inability to not abuse innocent people. So many humans just want to control each other. Humans are obsessed with controling each other. Nothing great was ever created by control, only by the florishing of the human spirit and liberty, allowing people to be creative and weird and happy. History so clearly shows this. Religous societies and authoritarian societies are always complete shitholes even for the ones who benifit, like the racialy pure male normative class. The nicest societies are the ones who out liberty above all else. The richest person in a bad country is worse off then the poorest person in a nice country. Money doesnt buy happiness. Money cannot buy you love, not real love, just a simulation of it. Money cannot protect your kids. Money does not give your life meaning. Money usually just ruins you even more then you already were and then you jave to lie and xeluse yourself into thinking you deserve it, to avoid cognitive disonance with the only people who can tolorate you. Too bad people are too dumb to realize this now. People who trade liberty for temporary security, people who trade liberty so they can avoid actually facing any real issues in society, people who trade liberty so they can be comcortable and growntheir 401k, are the worst types of people. They truely deserve every bad thing thats going to happen to them.


  • Downlaod managers can work with most downloads. If a site is really badly coded it still wont work. Bittorrent is good for this. I recomend qbittorrent on linux/windows, or flud on android.

    With bittorrent you want to configure your settings. Set you max upload to half of what your connections upload speed is, or lower, you might have to experiment with this to see what your router and connection can handle. Activate “exit on finish” limit your max connections to 50-100 if you dont have a router with a strong CPU. Enable “require encryption” or use encryption and dont allow non encrypted connections. (Keeps your isp from throttling and helps keep you safer) Disable automatic start when you device boots up (very important)

    Then you are all set. Just remember to make sure you dont run it all the time, bittorrent is hard on your router, not that it will mess it up but it will load up the CPU, honestly not much worse then windows built in spyware these days, and try to place the files where you actually want them when creating a download, so that you can reupload to the world. If you move the files after downloading them, then the client cant reupload to other users. You could even consider setting your max upload slots to something reasonable like 24 with a max upload rate of 200 KB/s, and let it run all the time. Be careful when hosting copyrighted content unless you have a VPN always active. You really should these days, they are cheap. I think i payed $80 for a year of proton VPN, a swiss company that isnt as beholden to the giant global intelligence network. You should also support artists so dont pirate unless you dont have a good option for getting your content. Pirated content also has a risk of containing malware and getting you sued.

    As someone who lives in the U.S and is always on the road for work, i constantly have to deal with terrible and 3rd world internet infastructure. I am very familiar. Half of my state has about a 40% packet loss rate or something. Idk. Its bad. It drops out completly multiple times per day, cell towers, ISPs, credit card machines, etc. Sometimes you might just need to download from a better connection in another part of your state or something.

    I dont have any recomendations for a download manager for PC, but for android ADM, advanced download manager seems to work well. On PC i usually just use torrents. Using a VPN in exclusivly TCP mode can also help, UDP is a lower latency lossy connection, TCP will resend packets until all of them get through. Using a vpn with TCP can help if you have a crappy connection. It wont help much if you are getting multi second drop outs. For that you really need bittorrent, or a download manager. If the zite doesnt work with download managers, and you cant get a torrent, you can try to find a mirror of the download somewhere else. Tey searching for the file name in quotes, like “filename.zip” and then use -website name to remove results from spammy sites. A search might be like, ( “filename.zip” -website1.com -website2.com )



  • This is very close to true after a few years or maybe people who take hrt before puberty but generally most teenagers shouldnt be doing full dose hrt imo. A mild dose it better, it gives them flexability to go either way later in life.

    Also there are a few advantages males who have had tedtoterone are going to have, like wider shoulders, denser bones and stuff. Im not against it but its a hard sell for most. Around 2/3rds of americans are against it.
