dinner then nothing else to eat until breakfast.
This is what I started doing, and nothing else, and I lost a few pounds (don't know how much I never weigh myself, I can just tell by looking in the mirror.) If I start to get hungry at like 11 pm, I just go to bed.

Fair or not, no one gives a shit about Kamala anymore. It's over.
And just maybe, Kamala doesn't give a shit either.

creating them or just using them in general? They just usually work in my experience, and we use them a shit ton in our work. It's easier than typing a website in and missing a forwardslash or whatever.
That's also one benefit I count from Covid is QR code menus at restaurants. Do you want to hold this lamenated, but drug through shit paper menu or just hold your phone that belongs to you? "Yeah, i got it right here on my phone..."
Your phone is probably dirtier than the menu.

comments are hilarious
"Is the game in the room with us right now?"
"Is the TV on the balcony?"
"Imagine" being the key word.

seen both of those.
both are not really that hilarious.
although I suppose it is possible (or probable based on y'alls responses) I have seen it and don't remember.

Never seen the swagcopter pic. Fuckin' hilarious.
Also, @Longboard Horn, have you called CPS about your co-worker's nephew?

Is that crybaby somehow implying that democrats are to blame for doTArD?

Uh, ever notice how many pilots, navigators and bombardiers had some college and even a college degree. Timmy from the coal mine wasn't flying P-51s.
Which is why Mechanic Sergeant Micklin would call the Black Sheep Squadron pilots "college boys".

Lol, which makes perfect sense. Stalking the woods, having to hit a small, often alerted animal that moves fast, is elevated, alerts others to your presence, and all with open sights - probably with a single-shot .22lr. Shit isn't easy.
I said I wasn't a hunter or shooter earlier, but I used to "hunt" squirrels with a 22 in the pecan orchards on my grandfather's farm. And yes, it wasn't easy, even with dogs that would scare the squirrel around the trunk of the tree so it was spread eagled holding onto the trunk on my side of the tree.
When I did manage to bring one down, the dogs would tear the shit out of it playing tug of war.

Haven't watched the video yet, but I read that they targeted lots of rural and Midwest kids that grew up bird hunting because they understand the concept of 'deflection shooting', ie. leading your target.
Same reason mechanized units loved them, as they grew up around large farm equipment and knew how to work on them, fix them, etc.
Yeah, the video talks about deflection shooting, and how the amount of deflection depends on the angle of attack of the fighters attacking the bombers (which depends on the location of the fighter relative to the bomber during the fighter's attack run). Explained it in pretty good detail, with animation, and then broke it down and just told them how much to adjust their aim (lead by x number of radii of the crosshairs) based on the angle of attack of the incoming fighter.
I'm not a hunter or a gunner, but the video was fascinating.
I could totally see a physics teacher using that video to teach relative motion.

Shows/explains relative motion and independence of perpendicular motions very well.
Made in the 1940s, just artists and engineers, drawing frame by frame.

So the consensus is: Its good war pron.
Combat Vets: Is it accurate or realistic war pron?

Saw this on trusty internet. Premeditation and self defense soups both be in play:
This is the story according to the coach:
The week before last, Austin & Karmelo had a fight at a party. Karmelo lost-took the L and walked away. Austin & his twin brother had friends at Karmelo’s school who started to harass him so he stayed home for a couple of days. On the day of the “tragedy”, Karmelo went to the other school for a track meet. He was sitting in the bleachers and it started to rain. The coach told him to go and sit under the tent. He was under the tent with his friends when the Metcalfe twins came over to the tent. They told him to go and when he didn’t move, Austin grabbed his phone and threw it so it broke. The twins then proceeded to jump him with Austin on top of Karmelo. Karmelo pulled out the knife and stabbed Austin. When Austin got up, that’s when his twin realized he had been hurt. Texas is a stand your ground state and self defense is different in stand your ground states than it is in Illinois. Karmelo had the right to defend himself and his property.Karmelo's coach or the twins' coach?

17 hours ago, BurntEyes said:And given the case, imo, this is a reasonable choice. Frankly, bail, last I checked is 10% non-refundable of the total. So, at $250k that's $25k they aren't getting back innocent or not and I'd wager there aren't a lot of folks that can afford to lose $25k before lawyer's fees.
When it was $1m I'd argue that as unreasonable given the circumstances even though its a murder charge.
I think this is only true if you use a bail bondsman. The court refunds all the bail when you show for trial. Don't ask me how I know that.

This is accurate.
The problem is one that comes up with respect to ANY statement/allegation. Once a person has REPEATEDLY demonstrated that they are a lying psychopath.....then their credibility is already destroyed. It's not destroyed because of what her current allegation is. It's destroyed because she long ago acted in a way that got here tossed in the "oh...so she's a lying liar who lies all the time" bucket. It's the boy who cried wolf bit.
It's why we lawyers tell our clients and witnesses over and over NOT to lie on the stand. Because once the jury figures out you told ONE lie....they tune you out because they conclude that everything else you say is a lie as well. Once you tell a lie...then you're just another liar.
So, its like you fuck one pig one time, you're a pig fucker forever?

Not sure if it’s on topic, but I once lived in a triplex and we had a really hard time keeping raccoons out of our trash cans. We tried putting heavy rocks on top, bungee cords, nothing worked. One morning after I was sure I’d made them impenetrable I walked out back to trash all over the alleyway and yelled to my wife “ Holy shit, I can’t believe those coons were smart enough to get into the trash again!” and failed to notice our new black neighbor walking towards the cans with trash bags in her hand! I tried to explain, but I’m pretty positive she didn’t buy it.
I laughed out loud at this and wish I could take it back.
I mean I wish I could take it back if anybody had heard me and knew what I was laughing at. Since nobody heard me, whatever.

When he got the delivery, he stared at the tariff for a while. Shouldn’t his Canadian supplier have been responsible for paying it? “I’m not even sure it’s legal! We contracted for the price on delivery! If your price of fuel goes up or your truck breaks down, that’s not my problem! That’s what the contract’s for.”
Sounds like ol Farmer Gilbert should have done his research. Moron.
Also, 100% he voted for ThE DOtaRd, if he believes the supplier pays the tariff. Idoit.
Fuck him. Go bankrupt. Stand in bread lines. I don't GAF.

I think his username might be held against him at the bail hearing.
If that's true, then its also true I assume that posts you make on surly can be held against you?
Oh shit.

Their fanbase is dumber than we thought. Their defense, esp. DL, was fantastic.
Which UT are we talking about again?

As a chicken owner I can verify that they indeed can fly. Not far, but they can get airborne.
As the neighbor of a chicken owner, my dogs can confirm that chickens can in fact fly. At least until they land in my yard.

What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?

never mind, already covered.
I'd love to see some roundabouts in my small town.
