I weigh 175lbs naked, but you really can't trust those grocery store scales.

Common misconception. There's still PLENTY you can do, as long as your circuit's not dead, and there's not something wrong.

We definitely are seeing things faster than 24 Hz, or we wouldn't be able to tell a difference in refresh rates above that.

Edit: I don't think we have a digital, on-off refresh rate of our vision, so fps doesn't exactly apply. Our brain does turn the ongoing stream of sensory data from our eyes into our vision "video", but compared to digital screen refresh rates, we can definitely tell a difference between 24 and say 60 fps.

Same, thanks a lot English. I was like "so, is he like $4 million more than the $6 million dollar man?"

You say that life isn't a movie. Then you say that people who need full auto have a "skill issue"? Christ dude, life isn't CSGO either. You're right that many shooters probably aren't that skilled, but the takeaway here is that makes full auto more lethal in their hands, not that they need to git gud.

"The order requires county employees to notify any voter whose mail-in ballot is rejected because of an error — such as a missing signature or missing handwritten date — so that the voter has an opportunity to challenge the decision."

I really like the safety aspect of this, but 72% capacity after 300 cycles seems low. What's a use case scenario where this is preferable over lipo batteries?

I really can't imagine Trump sitting in a chair, holding a book and quietly reading it.

I think I just don't think about it until it's happening, and then it's too late.
