Unfortunately, the smart kids have to sit in the same classrooms as the dumb ones. We have to dumb everything down to the least intelligent students, because God forbid someone get's their feelings hurt when they constantly do worse than the rest of the kids in the classroom.

Dumbing everyone down is just part of what will ultimately make them 100% unable to take care of themselves as adults, and 100% make them rely on the government for all of their needs. They'll become slaves at that point, doing whatever menial task they are told, just so they can survive.

I've been using Lithium Ion batteries for years in electric RC. They are, as u/iamonlyoneman states, extremely vulnerable to discharging or charging too fast, or discharging or charging too much. Lion batteries should never be discharged below 20% remaining capacity. Doing so, damages the cells. Too see how violent this is, with a Lion battery consisting of just 4 cells is, check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nrsoMsEMNU. Go to the 5:50 mark in the video.

Thanks for your wonderful wisdom, Fauci. Too bad it's all bullshit like the rest of what you spew!

I am unvaccinated and had covid last week; for the first time. So did a vaccinated person I know, unknown if first time or not, but believe so. Was bad for me for about 12-16 hours, and then lingered as a sore throat and cough for 4 more days. Was bad for the vaccinated person for 4-5 days, and then lingered on for another 3-4 days. I should also add that I am much older (probably twice as old, at least) and in far worse "shape" than he is.

Though I'm sure there are cases, I'm not personally aware of any unvaccinated person that experienced worse effects from covid, compared to the vaccinated.

I have / do. I bought a DE filter for my pool this year. Best thing I ever did. Didn't have to add hardly anything for chemicals all year and it stayed balanced (maybe a total of 1 gallon of muriatic acid, not including initial balance in the spring), so it has actually pretty much paid for itself already and required a lot less work on my part. Now, the sand filter I had previously, well, that was a constant pain in the ass.

It would be wonderful if the people of an entire country could band together and just go on "strike". Once Walmart, Home Depot, airports, and everything else closed down because nobody went to work, then shit would change really fast because the huge corporations would start bleeding money, and well, if no one is working, then the government gets no taxes either. Wouldn't even need to be all the people. Half would probably do the trick, as it take a certain minimum number of people to run any business.

Agreed! We live in a throw-away society anymore. Companies build stuff just good enough to make it through the warranty period and maybe a bit longer. Then you throw it away and buy another one. People used to get TVs fixed, quality boots and shoes resoled, appliances repaired, Not any more though, Throw it out and buy new. A big part of the blame (most of it, actually) lies with the companies that make the crap. They build it like crap on purpose, fully knowing you'll throw it away and but more, in their quest for the almighty dollar! Speaking of quality tools, I was fortunate enough to buy a nice set of Snap On tools and a top and bottom tool box (Napa, to save a few bucks) when I went to a tech school for aviation maintenance. That was 1991, and I still have all if it, and it all still works, and it is all still in great condition. 30 years old, and I'm sure it will last for another 30.

I challenge any phone junkie to turn their off for 24 hours.

Funny you should mention this. I decided four days ago (Jan 5th) to do just that. I have had my phone on only when I needed to make a call since then, and once when my wife asked me to in order to get hold of me if she needed to. I wouldn't classify myself as a phone Junkie though. I didn't do it because of apps though. I did it because I'm sick of Google tracking my life 24 hours a day. I decided enough, and keep my phone off now. It was WAY easier than I thought it was going to be. Your phone needs you more than you need it, and I decided I was going to change that. I lived just fine for 30 years without a cell phone, I think I'll do just fine again. *edited to put date in
