I have, they just kinda shrugged and said that's weird. Had cardiac workups and echos and everything done.

Isn't this the guy who said priests would be defrocked for turning in child rapists?

The first part is already a thing on rural routes.

Huh, TIL there's a name for what I have. Although mine is intermittent.

There's always an exception to the rule, but you knew that

There are just a ton of inconsistencies in the story.

For one, the Secret Service has one job when there's an active shooter, and that's, "get the president the fuck out of there yesterday." There's no way they would have let Trump stand back up and pose for his picture, and there's no way a geriatric who believes that exercise shortens your life would be able to overpower them.

Then, there's the fact that the shooter was seen by people in the crowd sitting on the wall around the event. There's no way the snipers didn't see him and didn't track his movements from that point.

Then there's the cop who saw the shooter posted up (on body cam), and just climbed back down and did nothing.

Trump was hit in the ear. Most of the ear is cartilage, especially where he was hit. One thing people don't know about ear cartilage is that it can shatter (happens all the time with inexperienced piercers), and a gun shot wound to that area likely would have shattered his cartilage.

Even if it didn't, those types of wounds take a really long time to heal if you're a normal person, since cartilage doesn't have great blood flow. Geriatrics especially take a long time to heal from pretty much anything, so there's no way his ear would be healed a day or two later, but pictures of him don't show a scratch.

The media isn't the only audience that's involved here.

This is a good reason to avoid getting Internet famous. The Internet is full of trolls, and you have to be prepared for it or it'll destroy you. It doesn't matter what content you're famous for, pieces of shit will try to tear you down just for the fun of it.

Unless you're an ultra wealthy white man, the party hates you.

It's not just corporate. My last job was basically the antithesis of corporate work and they still said it, but it was usually when it was 15+ minutes.

 

It had been 30 days, so I was in the clear

 

I was installing a TP-link HS210 3-way smart switch in my dinning room. On the side with the mains power I do have a neutral wire, but on the other switch I have no neutral wire from the wall (for that breaker). I do have a switch that's on the kitchen breaker right next to it, though, and that has a neutral and ground.

In my breaker box, both the neutral and grounds appear to be on the same row of lugs.

Running the neutral wire from the switch to the ground works, and I'm thinking it's because it's all going to the same place. This specific switch didn't explicitly say to do this, but other switches I've installed did.

Now, I could run the switch's neutral to the neutral on the kitchen circuit. I didn't at first because I had the other switch wired wrong, so I thought it was the no neutral switch causing issues.

 

This previous Saturday, I decided to try out my new battery powered 8" mini chainsaw. I was very stupid, and ended up holding a branch that was too small to stabilize it so it could cut it off. Of course, the saw bounced and hit the hand holding the branch.

I got two 1-2mm deep chunks taken out of my index finger knuckle, and a deep flap cut into my thumb. The weirdest thing was that it really didn't hurt; I was just annoyed that blood was everywhere.

Here I am nearly 4 days out, and my thumb is almost completely healed, and the deepest cut on my knuckle is only like 2 days from being completely healed over. The only part of the whole process that hurt was putting pressure on everything immediately after cleaning it, and putting the liquid bandage on my knuckle (it's acetone based).

I'm actually slightly concerned about my pain threshold, because I cut open my shin on a server rail yesterday and it really didn't hurt either.

 

Hello all, I plan to use my Panasonic LUMIX G85 (micro 4/3) with a 3D scanner setup. This will be fairly close photography, with the max object size being in the 24in(61cm) range.

I have a basic telephoto and nifty fifty, but wasn't sure if there was something better suited for my purpose.

If it makes any difference, I was planning on using a vertical line laser in a black box to take the pictures. I'm assuming there's a filter that can help.

I know this question requires rather specialized knowledge, but if anyone has that knowledge, it's Lemmy.

 

I'm guessing the answer is leverage, but I have no clue.
