Looked it up again just now. Was it always called Welcome Home, Son? I remember it just being Welcome Home. Hmm

Pixel 3 and later, including Fold: Should retain up to 80% capacity for about 800 charge cycles.

Pixel 8a and later: Should retain up to 80% capacity for about 1000 charge cycles.

For comparison, “Batteries of iPhone 14 models and earlier are designed to retain 80 percent of their original capacity at 500 complete charge cycles. iPhone 15 models are designed to retain 80 percent of their original capacity at 1000 complete charge cycles

I buy mine from the bulk store bc it's like the same price for 500 pills vs 30 from a normal drug store. I never finish them before the expiration, but whatever

I'm not gonna let the intruder in my home (who keeps hitting me) stay there because I refuse to break my lamp over his head.

Russians in Ukraine is a much larger threat than less shrubbery.

Zyn is growing quick in popularity. Them and other nicotine pouches very well may be taking some of the market.

You sleep on your side and stomach and use the same amount of pillow for both?? Stomach definitely needs the least amount of cushion, except for people who use no pillow I guess. And side sleeping has an entire shoulder's width of support to make up for. Totally different positions, you need an arsenal of pillows to really dial in the ergonomics.

This is an interesting point I haven't seen before. I think I agree, but only after suicide for medical patients is legal. And also, what about people not in a life sentence (whether a shorter sentence or someone not incarcerated)? Should they have any legal outlet?

Is there a difference between wanting to kill yourself and not wanting to live through a life sentence?

Lots to unpack, let's hit the big ones. Do any means justify peace? Is mass murder of entire countries okay because it would result in less overall friction afterward? How long does peace need to last after for it to make it worth it?

Displacement. Is it fair to the people who have lived in a country for generations to leave because of other's actions? Moreso, many of them currently /want/ to leave (really really bad) but can't, what should they do? And also, how is that fair to neighboring countries, they're just required to take in refugees because Israel wants more land? (What if there weren't neighboring countries?)

Finally, (please educate me), are universities very invested in Syrian companies/industries? That's what the current protests are about, divestment from Israel. Are you required to care about all atrocities in order to care for one? What line marks which bad things in the world protesters should inclusively be knowledgeable about?

The eradication of millions of civilians is definitely anti-peace.

A similar situation would be the US joining WW2 on the Axis side. I mean once Britain, France, Russia, China, and the Jews were finished off, there'd be peace for a while right?

Ponder what unconditional support for Israel would mean for Palestinians in our current landscape.

Few years ago Texas required 'In God we Trust' signs to be displayed in classrooms. Schools weren't allowed to pay for them, so basically donated. They conveniently rejected the signs that had a rainbow on it, or the one written in Arabic.

Not like that. It's HAIL SATAN

 

I love ratchet straps, but I can't seem to find any extra-short ones. I have two anchor points about 6-8 inches apart that have a slight obstruction between them (so not a straight line).

Ideally I would find some ratchets with a compact hook profile, and extra short portion of strap between the hook and ratchet. But also perhaps some kind of hook on a threaded rod and a coupling system that allows for slight bends?

It needs to be a removable solution, but it doesn't have to be quick or easy to remove. In fact a lockable or tool-neccesary solution would be slightly ideal.

Any ideas?

Edit: I'm trying to clamp a camper shell to a truck bed. I'd like to keep the bed liner, which means I can't use use the bed rails w/o cutting 4 holes into the liner. This leaves the 4 bed anchor points on each corner. Based off current responses, I'm probably looking at some rope system.
