Maybe the Army should start hosting raves for units that are deployed to help lessen the impact of combat stress. They would probably get quite a few more recruits with EDM DJ as an MOS, too. Just make sure no loaded firearms or flashbangs allowed in the raves.
Even a medium/medium rare piece of a really good sirloin works. Plenty of flavor, can be about as tender as a medium-well filet, and about half to 2/3 the price.
I was just thinking I bought a 6lb pack of 90/10 ground beef at Sams for less than $3.30 a pound, so I fail to see the value in these incredible savings.
Sams meat tends to be artificially lower than what you're really getting. I found that meat from Sams tends to shrink dramatically when you cook it because it is pumped full of water. Some of that $3.30 per pound your paying goes to nothing but water.
Even if it is, unless it is 1/3 water you are still getting it for cheaper than what whole foods is selling it for (at the discounted price even). Plus, since we already took that 6 lbs (and it was actually less, I rounded up) and spread it out into 12 portions and froze them, losing some of that weight makes the portions even smaller which helps with weight control. And there is no taste difference between that ground beef and ground beef in fresh packs from Kroger or Publix (the only taste difference I've ever noticed between the 3 is the prepackaged rolls of beef from Kroger that I used when I was in grad school and on a budget)

There's also a bit of, for the lack of a better term, a (non?) survivor bias in that while incidents such as the Australian woman or Tamir Rice get a lot of publicity, there are thousands of police encounters every day that end calmly and peacefully.
Having worked in a warehouse driving a forklift, sometimes that's simply not an option. Our facility only had racks for some freight that was terminating locally. Everything else (including terminating freight by large, regular customers) had floor holding/staging areas. All it took were a few large shipments , a delayed pickup, or an oversized item and a lot of these staging areas would be full. There were times when we had twice as much freight as could fit in the staging area. And freight is not always uniform in shape: a couple irregular pieces can make navigating through it a huge mess. Simply mapping an area once and using cameras to drive through wouldn't work, it would have to constantly remap the facility.
And as soon as there is a backlog and you have freight sitting on the ground or spilling over staging/holding areas and the premapprd layout goes to hell the automated forklift is useless.
35 is when you realize your life is going to be a lot worse than your parent's lives, and you aren't going to retire at 65, or ever...
Sweet, I'm already ahead of the curve. I'm only 30 and I already know I won't get to retire. On the bright side, I jsut hit 10 years with my company so there is a decent chance I will make my 40 year anniversary.
There's no point in having a robot move bricks a human can move. Human sized bricks are human sized, because humans suck for moving something bigger.
Show me a robot that just places an entire wall in one go.
Supply chain and workforce integration. By using standard sized bricks you can have a robot working alongside or supplementing human bricklayers without unnecessarily complicating purchasing and shipping of materials. Businesses further up the supply chain would also have to adjust their manufacturing process to make these larger bricks, further complicating their business and adding unnecessary costs. There is also the aesthetic component: people like the look of standard sized bricks.
The critical difference between a "drone" and a "killer robot" is in who makes the decision to kill: a human operator, or a computer program.
The keyword is in the quote in the description: "autonomous".
The difference between a peaceful robot and a war-robot is in which kinds of weapons you employ and what kind of programming you give it. Does it only break walls, or does it break down walls to find humans to kill? Does it have guns, that are only useful for killing?
And... the difference between a landmine/explosive rocket and autonomous robot is that the killer robot is active in how it searches for its targets.
Seriously, making the distinction is not that hard. Don't muddle it up!
How about an autonomous UAV that works as a CAP with an ROE that only allows it to engage targets when something it is assigned to protect comes under attack? It could be guarding an outpost, or be dispatched to watch over a group of civilians that are fleeing occupied territory that ground troops can't reach. It's only killing to save lives.
Really? Because when I connected through Amsterdam last month to Hamburg EU passport holders still had to go through an automated ID check. They didn't do passport control, but they didn't just walk through either.
If the government can keep shutting down drug marketplaces on the dark web, I'm pretty sure they can monitor a neo Nazi website. And if they don't, the SPLC or something similar certainly will
And what's missing from your post? That of those 230 people arrested some were journalists, lawyers, and medics, not protesters. DC police basically cordoned off areas and indiscriminately arrested everyone there. Which you seem to happily leave out.
Disappointment: when your entire post is a set up to a pun to try and get +5 Funny and you end up modded Interesting without anyone acknowledging the pun:(
A big flaw in their distribution plan for these glasses is that those vending machines are intended for people to purchase them on impulse. At a $130 price point it's hard to get people to make a snap decision to purchase one.

Without knobs how would I turn it up to 11?
Why don't you just make 10 louder?
.....These go to 11.

When people keep altering the terms of an agreement you only have 2 options: pray they don't alter them further, or blow up their death star.

Maybe a better punishment would have been to send them to Wipers with the next unit scheduled to go over the top. They'll never do that again.
Very few people had Nazi flags in that protest,
So marching around carrying torches chanting Nazi slogans doesn't make you a Nazi. You're only a Nazi if you carry a flag. Got it.
In a world where even The Emoji Movie grosses over $120 million, a lot of people.

As I already said in a reply to you in an earlier thread, AA was created after the SA and Brownshirts.
Looks to me like someone's list of favorite movies growing up included Hackers and Office Space
