Miles O'Brien

Unfortunately, due to different showrunners, there are a couple.

Like how Tony didn’t figure out hydra was infiltrating SHIELD when he hacked everything in Avengers 1. Probably should have figured that out.

And I know people like to say there are too many hydra people for them to not be well-known or easier to discover, but personally I don’t take issue with that.

If hydra has infiltrated key personnel, they can move whoever they want. I’d say they concentrated their forces at headquarters and on the carriers, since that was part of their big master plan. So of course there will be a lot of bags guys in the main areas and in the carriers, and it’s a testament to how few there really were that they failed. And they had sizeable resistance from non-compromised personnel.

Lol. I wasn’t going to be paying full price for a game anyway, but now I’m not paying for gearbox games ever again.

I live in Ohio and am currently looking for work.

I’m still paying to places that say drug testing, but not places that specify thc testing.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s a legal state, and unless they have similar testing and employment rules for alcohol (which they wouldn’t be able to since it doesn’t show up two weeks later) then I should be able to smoke when I want, off the clock.

If they test and it prevents me from getting the job, I feel slightly satisfied I wasted their time and money. If they follow up and ask about it, I will tell them straight up it’s legal in this state and they’re only limiting their options by refusing to hire people who do a legal thing.

It’s probably just wasting my own time, but hey I’ve got time to waste.

Yeah, I think that about sums it up.

Ooh how many times have you heard that it’s somehow your fault for not doing enough to get anyone else elected, your fault for not having a degree, your fault for not seeing this coming 10 years ago and making plans then, or your fault for being a dirty American who is American and therefore deserves all the bad things happening?

I’ve gotten all these, and more.

My personal favorite was being told in the same conversation by two different Canadians, that I should move to Canada, AND that Canada doesn’t need some “backwards ass hillbilly trash who wants to fuck his guns as much as his sister” because I mentioned I have family, no college education, and firearms.

Personally I’d prefer to move to an EU country, but if the US ever really did want to invade Canada, I’d want to be there to help defend Canada. You know, with my guns. I’ve inherited quite a few, have training to use them, and am absolutely willing to train minorities on their use to defend against fascist racist phobic pieces of human refuse.

So basically for one reason or another, country on the planet seems to want someone like me.

Instead we get to sit here, in this shit hole country. Grasping at anything to try and help pull it back from the massive sinkhole it’s slipping into. Hoping that enough people help us to make a difference.

I don’t think there’s a relevant peanuts panel for this…

Literally the most hilarious thing I’ve read all week. Honestly I wonder if anyone who was involved in this article actually believes that.

It just reads like more placation of the angry masses. “no need to burn things down, we promise he will be gone soon, no protesting necessary either”

They could halve their prices and still make bank.

Markups at retail stores are insane, places like Walmart are the worst.

I want a small European style truck that’s hybrid. Like give me 200 miles of electric charge, and a small generator I can use to charge up. I don’t even care if I can’t drive while it’s using the generator for a charge, I just want the ability to charge out in the field without filling my bed up with solar panels.

Rarely do I need the full size of my 90s/2000s era truck. And it’s tiny compared to modern trucks. That said, I am hauling small things that won’t fit in a car or SUV nearly daily.

Most of the guys I know that drive the large trucks go on about how they NEED them for “safety” or for “when I’m hauling a bunch of stuff” while the cover on their bed hasn’t been lifted off since they bought it and there isn’t a single scratch on the hitch.

I didn’t even know the Lighting existed until I read an article about how someone used one to power their home during a power outage.

I make an attempt not to subject myself to marketing, but it seems like marketing for that thing was straight nonexistent for a long time.

Nothing says “I do not care, this is beneath my ability to even think about and in no way affects my decision-making” like painting on your clothing in response to a comment.

It really sells how little she thinks about it.

Just like when someone comments/messages/texts several huge long paragraphs in an argument while constantly saying “I don’t care”, you can feel the apathy.

I wish we still lived in a country where legal arguments are still relevant.

When half the social networks, such as they were, have been decimated via illegal orders and people who don’t have legal authority are allowed to do as they please, fire who they please, and confiscate funding as they please, laws mean nothing unless you’re poor or in the “out” group.

These people have no issues holding multiple conflicting opinions.

Can alumni class-action their university for devaluing their degree?

I give it 6 years tops.

The bell riots have been pushed back a bit, but it’s only a matter of time.

Begun, the Eugenics Wars have…

And nobody suggested it did.

But the argument of “it’s more unsafe” doesn’t apply, that was my whole point.

If one thing is less unsafe than another, why the fuck WOULDN’T you want to switch the the DEMONSTRABLY LESS UNSAFE THING

The safety aspects alone SHOULD be enough to convince people, yet here we are.

The difference between nuclear-power- related disasters and fossil fuel related disasters is astronomical.

And honestly the amount of radioactive isotopes that get spewed out from burning coal day in day out for decades on end absolutely dwarfs the amount of radioactivity released from nuclear disasters.

generates about a truckload a year (20-30 tons) of spent fuel

Is that spent fuel or just waste in general? I have seen “20 tons” used for both here and there, and there’s a big difference between them IMO.

Fuel is much more dangerous than, say, a piece of equipment that was exposed to something, but both will be stored as “nuclear waste”. Not that I’m saying the equipment is “safe” but the likelihood of a disaster occurring because a barrel of irradiated equipment busted open vs a barrel of spent fuel…

If we would adopt nuclear power generation at large scale world-wide, we would deplete our scarce uranium probably in a few decades, long before oil

Tell me you don’t understand the energy density of nuclear fuel without telling me…

A lot of comments here are displaying their ignorance of nuclear technology.

Keep eating up the oil company talking points, I guess. “hey guys remember those nuclear meltdowns from outdated reactors that had all kinds of things going wrong because of poor design and decision making, most of which is no longer an issue? Yeah things blow up so better keep chugging away at those fossil fuels while we sabotage any investments into renewables”

I mean goddamn, the “worst” disaster in the USA was a big nothing burger that was sensationalized by newspapers that knew how to sell a headline, and oil companies that knew how to leverage any sort of negative press to their advantage.

When the fallout from nuclear disasters doesn’t come close to the amount of radiation out off by burning and refining fossil fuels, there is no argument.
