Thankfully there aren’t any strong smells as far as I can tell. All the rooms smell pretty clean.

When we moved in there were a couple of sites of water damage that us and our home inspector could see in the basement. The biggest one was below the main bathroom, looked like a pipe busted at some point, but the inspector noted that it looked like it was cleaned up ok and that there didn’t look to be any mold growth on the spots he could see.

As far as anything recent, we haven’t had any notable water spillage since we moved in.

We’ve been looking into hiring a contractor for some remodeling work so I’ll be sure to ask when we’re talking through what we want with the house.

Thank you for the advice!

I saw it this way too. Money is important for stability which is why he looks so glum, instead of taking the payout of a lifetime he did the right thing in his eyes and walked away. I know I would have a lot of conflicted feelings if I were in his shoes.

The physical battery idea has been a thing for decades in the form of a pump storage plant where during times of excess electricity, they pump water up a hill, and when power is needed it works like a hydroelectric power plant. The problems with these however is that in order to get a meaningful amount of power and longevity, you need a lot of water and space to build one of these which makes them massive and expensive up front. I have one near me, but I also live near one of the biggest lakes in the world, which helps.

I’m guessing it’s more about the standard round that it fires. 5.56 or .223 rounds are built more for penetrating materials so when they’re up against a fleshy target, unless you hit them right in the vitals, might not cleanly kill and cause prolonged suffering. That’s not to say that the gun can’t be chambered in something that’s more useful for hunting but having a 20-30 round magazine for hunting is still a bit overkill.

If I recall correctly, Switzerland has a lot of gun control laws that dictate who can own a firearm, when and where the firearm can be used, and ownership requires strict training and licensing that often comes from the compulsory military service that the country requires. All of that would be great to have here in the US since the little tidbit about guns in our rule book mentions a well-regulated militia.

I haven’t been arrested by Italian food cops yet so I’d say it’s fine. Do whatever you want to food that makes it taste good to you because taste is a very subjective thing.

This is Michigan erasure and I will not stand for it.

Yeah that’s more regenerate or maybe power word heals territory.

Hey, on the bright side, manpower is manpower.

He teleported behind them, canonically.

The best part to me is that they include all of these rules to increase the security, but then set a maximum length of the password, which from my understanding is the easiest way to add complexity/security to a password.

Based.

What’s wrong with galvanized square steel? It’s a strong, corrosive resistant material great for regular use in damp environments. Just don’t cut it, weld it, eat it, etc. Zinc isn’t all that healthy in large amounts.

A true 2 state solution.

Maybe a clear tape since that’s more subtle and it’ll still mess up the focus so everything will appear blurry.

Does Carmen San Diego work there or something?

No thank you, I enjoy having teeth.

I mean… That all just sounds like corn, which, in my opinion, is a pretty good food.

Maybe trying to farm in swathes of arid land using massively inefficient watering techniques and refusing to innovate for decades wasn’t the best idea.
