Could one not argue that a ruler is an example of distance, since it is an intrinsic property within all macro objects, we just call it 'length' when it pertains to that case? The change from distance to length is a semantic shift to change focus, but nothing objectively changes.

I would multiply that by the agitator bars in the back of the drum as equivalent to each one being a pulse disturbance, so say 3 bars in there, then 60Hz.

Idle thought really: Would it be possible to bar politicians from setting policy on the mechanisms and procedures of government from their real job of governing their country and constituents? I envisage a separate pathway and committees for the maintenance of the government machine. The latter would be staffed by experts in the field. Candidates with nefarious intent wouldn't be able to twiddle with the levers of government to move the goalposts if they get elected. I'm particularly thinking of voting procedures within government chambers and outside of it in public elections.

To you and everyone else.

The first time I experienced 0f in the late eighties, I remember lifting a metal bin lid and my fingers sticking to it quite rapidly.

Apparently, in mountaineering they avoid cotton next to the skin because it is hydrophillic a cotton layer can kill. Definitely avoid it in socks in the cold.

I think the closest we can get can be described as 'intersubjective consensus', where we share our findings and agree as a group such-and-such is the case.

I have some polyester fleece sniper_type gloves for fishing that I want to stop getting damp. Has anyone any experience of doing this from scratch. What would be the most appropriate UK-available preparation for this?

"Tropical monsoon climates have monthly mean temperatures above 18 °C (64 °F) in every month of the year and a dry season. :200–1 Tropical monsoon climates is the intermediate climate between the wet Af (or tropical rainforest climate) and the drier Aw (or tropical savanna climate)."

This is true, I've seen many people tip the unwanted contents of their car in the roadsides and kerbs.... even dropped immediately outside of a macdonald's bin <obscenities>. Too many people are acting like islands of selfishness in the public space. Everything we do has consequences for someone.

Or we could change the mindset and take it home

Hi Donald-clone.

The Green Mile, The Ring original Japanese, Any Bruce Lee film.

I can see for miles... but will walk into anything less than a metre away.

Space chiefs are to investigate whether electricity could be beamed wirelessly from space into millions of homes. The European Space Agency will this week likely approve a three-year study to see if having huge solar farms in space could work and be cost effective. The eventual aim is to have giant satellites in orbit, each able to generate the same amount of electricity as a power station. ESA's governing council is to consider the idea at its Paris HQ on Tuesday. While several organisations and other space agencies have looked into the idea, the so-called Solaris initiative would be the first to lay the ground for a practical plan to develop a space-based renewable energy generation system.

Expansionism to Soviet levels is Putin's MO. We either let him or we don't. The choice seems to be binary, given that, evidently, any opportunity towards a compromise just gives him time to remaneuver. This why Zelenskyy is not interested in talking to him at this point in the conflict It would be militarily and politically foolish to lose any hard earned gains to anything else, given that this conflict is going to be extremely difficult going forward in their winter, which apparently is brutal. Our next task will be helping the civilians and armed forces keep warm enough to endure the likely struggle ahead. Russian conscript losses are going to be an order of magnitude more numerous. The support they have in the field is pitiful. This image of a new influx of conscripts says it all:

I just read about that. The pressure at the 582 foot cold lakebed allowed the water to hold 20L/L of carbon dioxide vs 1L/L near the surface... 20x more.

The innate public sense of sanctity/respect in the highest holders of legal office must be looking decidedly grubby for many Americans.

As per swansont, the direction of focus, which should be clear, is the apparent behaviour of Allito/associated others, and slightly more widely, perhaps the effects on judicial fairness/integrity, or not, by the SC judges. Let's keep it tight.

What say thee?

How will those work to isolate the bare metal from the atmosphere?

As bad as he is, I think he needs to be corralled away from those options by not forcing him to make those choices. We aren't going to do what we did to Saddam and Gaddafi... look where that led. When it looks like he's irrevocably stuck we need to give him options to save some face. The ultimate judgement and any punishment, whatever form that might take, needs to be by his own. We need to know when to stop being hawkish, I think.

Silicone grease

It's only delaying the inevitable public unrest in Russia. Europe and Ukraine public are fully aware of the situation. The loyal Russian public seem to be slowly seeing through the cracks. The ultimate game seems to be one of mutual attrition.
