Then why does it seem like most specialized doctors and or dentists lean that way?

To think he would have been Obama's shining SC pick...

Yeah, but he somehow marketed the hell out of it. It was somewhere down in the top 100 of the reading list before college.

He employs a known rapist in a managerial role... so yeah, weird is an understatement.

It's the scary part... the last time the court pendulum swing this far we had a full blown CIVIL WAR.

 

I was wondering if deaf people commonly watch movies or TV with the sound on to feel the sound/music? Or is there not a sense of enjoyment if it can't be heard?

Because there had never been a coup with a country that has an air force

I feel like at that point you might as well put a few cannons on the boat.

It does? What does it search?

It would be funny to see all the campaign signs and stickers replaced.

Nah, they use vans for more package dense areas. They are rolling out electric versions of those too eventually.

I am more concerned by China heavily subsidizing epacket mail.

 

Google and various websites says 28g of pecans is between 185 and 195 calories, how in the world are praline pecans much less calories?

 

I am going to eventually use Linux (although need help with a good option for gaming and video library use), but I was curious how long I could use Windows unregistered for? What are the limitations of it not registered?

 

[Resolved!]

I traded my cousin some really expensive RAM that I happened accross for his old desktop, that he put his graphics card into that he swapped from his newer computer. If I plug the desktop into the wall and try to turn it on nothing happens. If I open it up I can see that the where the wire from the power supply plugs into the graphics card there Is a little light on. So clearly some power is getting somewhere...

How do I go about trouble shooting this, and what tools do I need? I assume at minimum a multi meter? Not really sure what to do, it's been decades the last time I built a computer.

Board says "Asrock H110M-HDS"

Edit: Attached a Pic and noticed the light is actually on the graphics card, not motherboard. Added addtl info.

Update: So now all of the sudden the fan spins. I am at a loss as to why it spins now, as I haven't actually really done anything. I ordered a speaker for the mobo, so waiting for that.

Final update: It works! I apparently had either a bad monitor or bad display port cable. But using another monitor with DVI I was able to finally get it to fully boot!

I am not sure what got the fans to eventually work, maybe just a cable was jostled.

I really appreciate all the advice! I definitely know a lot more and feel better equipped to do things with it now.

I know Congress needs to be involved to actually declare war, but there have been a number of times where something was kicked off by presidential authority alone.

If Biden wanted to, could he start a conflict against Russia without congressional approval. If not, what approval would he need? If so, what would be the theoretical limitations to his power and military authority?

I am already assuming people would want some definition of what "conflict" would mean in this hypothetical scenario. So let's say it means Biden authorized US troops at the Ukrainian border and had them launching shells into Russia.

 

Let's say I hypothetically had some mice pee in some plastic components that cannot be properly cleaned in any realistic way. Is it possible to heat it up to "cook off" the mouse pee nastiness without actually melting the plastic?

Does mucus have calories? (sh.itjust.works)

There must be some caloric input required to produce mucus, however my question is what happens when you swallow your own mucus vs spitting. Do you retain calories by swallowing mucus?

 

Celebrity theories?

 

How fast could the average person whose in peak physical shape run on the moon, without the limits of current technology? I mean suit, but like a wetsuit with only a small helmet, and athletic shoes.

 

I guess my title kind of puts it all out there. I am looking to collect spellbooks, Journals and the likes from those who are insane, or have mental health issues. What's the easiest way to purchase them, and how do you even find them?

Fame or notoriety do not matter to me. I am just looking for scripts/texts written by neural atypical people that are related to the occult..

At first I thought estate sales would be a good way to find this... but heirs tend to destroy/hide or sell that stuff on the secondary market as to not taint the value of the other property.

Edit: I wondering if some internet archiving could help find threads to look for.

 

Juicy Juice among other brands touts "100% juice" however if you leave it undisturbed for months on the shelf it never seems to develop any sediment. How can they be 100% juice and not have any solids? What exact process are they using to remove all the sediment and or perfectly homogenize the liquid? You will notice other shelf stable 100% juice brands tend to have a sediment, how do the large brands get around that, while still being pure juice? Is there an FDA definition of "Juice"?

Sorry, this seemed to turn into many questions.
