You know what also wasn’t a word?

Literally every word that is now a word.

It did mention that several times the town did form posses to go and cull the bears, but didn’t do enough because you also had people just feeding the shit out of them.

Correct, it was an F-35B flown by a USMC pilot out of MCAS beaufort.

I will say that this is both a benefit and a detriment to lemmy in my experience. You have to pay attention to multiple levels of information.

Crazy to look at that CO2 per capita chart and see that we’re lower now than any time since the 40s at least.

About 25% down from 2008.

In the US this is called constructive dismissal. It’s a tactic used by employers to get away with firing someone but not getting hit by unemployment insurance payments.

The good news for workers is, it still counts as being fired and you still qualify for unemployment if you “quit” under these conditions.

As opposed to the other bullets that are also heavy metals.

Many people in the US are paid every two weeks, which means some months you’re paid more than others.

Yearly has become standard as is hourly rate, because one is useful for taxes and the other is often directly negotiated.

NASA has no control of flight paths. The FAA also doesn’t specify sonic-boom allowed flight paths. They just outright ban it (with a few exceptions) for any boom that could reach anywhere in the US.

FAA also doesn’t want to deal with people complaining about sonic booms like they did back in the 50s when this all started (they received tens of thousands of complaints) so they have an interest in making sure NASA lives up to their promises.

Yes, they would reduce the overpressure. By how much I’m not sure, but that’s part of the research.

They’re promising a perceived 75 dB level, equivalent to the volume of a dishwasher. Sonic booms are normally about 110 dB or about a jackhammer or a rock concert

And it’s not like you’d hear it all the time, just once in a while and only if you’re in the flight path.

FYI, emotional support animals aren’t protected on flights any more than other animals on flights, meaning they have to stay in a crate/kennel.

Only service animals can be outside of the carrier and there’s extra paperwork associated with that.

Ukrainian soldiers in 2014 vs 2022.

The U.S. and allies, despite what a lot of people say (usually something like “why haven’t they helped since the war actually started in 2014”) helped transform the Ukranian military into the capable fighting force it is today, and the work started years ago.

There are many cases of people being sentenced to death wrongfully. For that reason the punishment shouldn’t exist.

World record is closer to 24 minutes underwater

The owner of the website certainly has no reason to inflate their numbers…

Just look at how the EU government works, they ended up with a very similar system, just with a parliamentary twist. It’s a bit of a natural compromise when you have a bunch of nations with their own identity coming together to form a larger body.

The value of “X” has been repeatedly downgraded. It’s estimated at around $15b by fidelity. They’ve demolished their own brand by renaming themselves and how you interact.

This is before you get into the whole “twitter has been loaded with debt from the purchase of twitter and so is even more unprofitable than it was before” part of the debacle.
