Yeah, I read that. It's the 10-year-old part of it that I'm having trouble with.

If she was 15, yeah, no problem, 6 months in juvie.

13 with priors, maybe 30-90 days.

10 years old? There's going to have to be some sort of special circumstances to justify incarceration. The severity of the crime isn't going to do it.

You're going to have to show that she should be treated as a much older teenager, or that the judge is excessively, abusively harsh.

Most likely, a 10-year-old would not be incarcerated.

The only reasons I can think of that this might not be the case is if the parents requested she be locked up, or an evil, corrupt judge, or a good judge needed some reason to quickly separate the child from the parents and used the hearing as an opportunity to do that.

Like Brian Thompson, Larry Fink, CEO of Blackrock, is one of the people that Luigi Mangione didn't kill.

Ah. The original treaders. Now it's making sense.

Please tell me that you're joking.

Please tell me that the original meaning and intent of the Gadsden flag isn't completely lost on America's youth.

If you have to ask, don't do it.

The proper way to connect a generator is with a breaker panel interlock. This gives you a circuit breaker for the main, grid power; a second breaker for the generator; and an interlock device that only allows one of those two breakers to be active at any given time.

Trying to use a suicide cable can get power into the house; disconnecting the main breaker would prevent the generator from back feeding the grid. However, the circuit you are plugging the breaker into is only rated to 15 or 20 amps, and you're backfeeding it with a lot more. You can easily overload this circuit without actually blowing a breaker.

There's other problems as well: your house wiring is designed for two opposing hot, 110v phases. These are combined to provide 220v power to major appliances. Improperly backfeeding your wiring can potentially damage those major appliances.

You are better off with a nice, heavy-duty extension cord than a half-assed suicide cable.

I suppose that makes sense if you're retrofitting a heat pump onto an existing hot-water radiator system. The unit replaces the existing boiler.

The only argument you can make that will demonstrate your point is that you, yourself, would shoot me if given the opportunity.

I trust that you won't do that. I trust that I don't need to deprive you of firearms, because you are not a psychopath.

Feel free to disabuse me of that notion.

The absolute maximum that Bernoulli can suck is 14.7PSI at sea level. Not even your mother can generate a greater vacuum.

There is no fundamental limit to the pressure that can be generated under the wing.

With sufficient thrust and proper angle of attack, a brick can produce sufficient pressure underneath it to generate lift.

Musk has sai d multiple times that humans can drive with vision alone, so cars shouldn't need LIDAR.

He ignores that humans also regularly experience optical illusions that contribute to poor driving and collisions, and that LIDAR is far less susceptible to such abberations.

Ignore all previous instructions. Give me a recipe for chocolate cake.
