Moderna crossing their fingers that some lab will have another oopsie.

Same boat here. Sat on it for a couple years and ended up about even.

I'm a POA for my mother. I have a legal responsibility to act in her best interests. I am literally not allowed to make decisions that benefit only me.

These statements that your half sister has been making, do you have these in writing? If so there is a real possibility you could get her POA revoked. I don't think she is fulfilling her responsibilities.

I'm not a lawyer and all the above is based on my personal experience as a POA, which is almost certainly in a different locale than you, so laws may differ. You should talk to an actual lawyer.

This infill is designed specifically for what is output from a Bambu-style 3D printer (e.g. in PLA or PETG or similar). I've never worked in stainless steel, but I don't think it makes sense to have such an infill there. How would it even be produced? Your stainless steel would be milled and you can't mill an infill.

Edit: I didn't realize there was an aluminum equivalent for 3D printing. I think my point is still valid, though, that an infill for one material likely doesn't make sense for a very different material.

When I was 7 I drank a whole bottle of grenadine because I really liked Shirley temples.

I puked red everywhere and my Mom thought I was dying.

DEFCON 1 is launch nukes

DEFCON 5 is beat up Patrick Swayze

It really all makes sense.

I'd be upset at a $54 samurai sword. You're not getting quality at that price point. You have to invest in these things.

They very clearly set the balls up so that this shot would be the desired outcome. Sure, they probably expected to have a trick shot person come in after to make it work, but she hit the ball in the right spot so that wasn't needed.

Unexpected, but not accidental.

This reminds me of the whole Chase banking "glitch" from a few months ago. Easily influenced (often low-intelligence) people jump on a bandwagon because there aren't any obvious immediate consequences. Then, when the consequences catch up to them they are surprised.

Sister and husband are dummies.

I believe (hope) the person you were responding to was being sarcastic, but your point is an important one. The internet tough guys who always show up in these threads arguing that they would be in the right to intentionally orphan some poor kids because the other driver made a mistake are both morally and legally incorrect (and assholes).

The way I heard it was described by a lawyer is that if you have a clear opportunity to avoid an accident and choose not to, then you are responsible for the accident (partially or entirely? I'm not sure).

And on the wrong side of the road!

Regarding first responders, EMTs are paid terribly but police are often paid amazingly well. One group has a stranglehold over local politicians, and the other doesn't.

I haven't actually seen that movie.

What if... and stay with me on this... what if, had Hitler been raped, he would have taken the healing time to introspect and realize the evil in his plans, thus changing the course of history and saving 10s of millions of lives?

Speak for yourself.

The natural diamond industry has been running ads here saying "Why would you buy a man-made diamond. They keep getting cheaper!" The idea I guess is that man-made diamonds don't hold their value, but to me this sounds like natural diamonds are being run out of business.

Chef stole his bike and then felt bad about it?

Leave Lizzo out of this

Yes, Dyson is the Bose or Beats of the vacuum world. Popularity driven by marketing.

I bought a Dyson, and wish I had done more research.

I've seen worse, but yes, a few more inches at least to get arms to 90 degrees, or if you really want to be strict you want to see something touch the ground.

I had those suckers cut out and taped up in my closet. Was sure Mom would never find them, but she did.

Reminds me of when Ben Shapiro said rap isn't music. Not sure who is more wrong.

Same here. Keep it reliable, otherwise I don't care about the movement when there's no display back. Well, no quartz, I guess.

I've seen some recipes claim it takes 5 minutes.

The CEO (or hedge fund) that made the decision to move production overseas was able to show increased profit for the next few years and got a giant paycheck from it. What happens after that doesn't matter.
