(6) Try buying a toilet that uses more than 1.6 gallons per flush in the US. Oh wait, you can’t, it’s banned.

Not the best example since they're trying to reverse all of these environmental protections.

Because 99.999% of the time the hardware you're buying is different from the hardware you have prior experience with. Even if the model numbers are the same there could be a change in hw or fw revision that breaks compatability with whatever drivers you previously had success with.

HOAs get a lot of hate, but the last one I lived in actually recommended mowing the leaves instead of bagging them.

I live in America and haven't noticed this as a man, I assume the misogynists have enough self awareness to keep it somewhat out of sight. The last time I noticed something inappropriate, the person quietly left the company a few weeks later. I have no idea if it was related to what I saw, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I 100% believe that it happens, it's just not visible to me.

From the OP:

A later found out that her adoptive parents never completed her naturalization.

You don't get it, these people who adopted a little girl and supported her to adulthood only did it so she would eventually get denied a passport and possibly deported. It's called "the long con," look it up.

That speculation was fueled by liberals buying Teslas.

Where was NoVac, again?

Yes, obviously they're for communicating with other drivers, what gave you the impression I meant otherwise? I was responding to this in your last post:

Unless you turn your blinker on to let people know your want over how is anyone going to give you enough space to merge in? [...] You need to hit the blinker to let others know you want to move then check for space.

There are a lot of times where it makes sense to wait for a gap in traffic, rather than asking people to let you merge. And in those situations you would check for space before turning on your signal. You should still use your signal, even if you know you already have space to merge.

A "hooker skirt?" Isn't that a little misogynistic?

That's not what usually happens with censorship, though. Censorship can be very effective, which is why it's so dangerous, and why we have the 1st amendment in the US.

Hey everyone, I'm new to photography and wondering how much people spend on lenses compared to the camera body they're mounted on? Does it make sense to buy a higher end lens for a mid range camera, or would you be better off getting a slightly cheaper lens and spending some of the money on a nicer camera? Mainly wondering about used gear...

Currently shooting with my SO's D3500 when she isn't using it, and thinking of buying my own. Considering a used Pentax since weather resistant lenses seem easier to find for them than other brands...

Edit: how practical is it to use a Pentax lens on a Nikon with an adapter, and vice versa? I assume the electronics like AF and VR won't work?

I'm printing with PLA on a "PEO" print bed (really a textured PEI), on my heavily modified ender 3, and there's a pattern on the bottom of my first layer that I'm trying to get rid of. The top of the first layer looks fine, and changing the z offset in either direction doesn't help. I've also tried slowing down the print speed because I thought the extruder might be skipping, but I'm still seeing it at 10mm/s. Any idea what could be causing it, and how to get rid of it?

Edit: the first layer went down from the bottom left to the top right, but the pattern I'm seeing is perpendicular to the extruder path
