I don’t have to like it, but it’s sort of a sound strategy. The Red Sea is on the way to the Suez Canal, and the world had a demonstration a few years ago about what happens when you block the Suez canal.

I’m reminded of Bender:
“This isn’t even about you”
“That’s impossible!”
“I’m going to business school!”
I don’t use youtube for it’s riveting entertainment, I use it to learn things.
I was going to guess Rabul. Oops.
There are washing machines without anything more complex than a switch in them. If you really had a “pile of disassembled washing machines” you’d know that.
Doubt.
My electric bill changed by less than $2 per month when I installed an “inefficient” washing machine. It was so little that I’m not sure the washer was the cause. That’s $72 over a period of three years. The machine it replaced was just out of warranty and needed a $200 drain pump.
Protesting is a threat. The problem is, when you don’t get what you want, you’re supoosed to foklow through on that threat.
Does an old school washer dryer that runs off timer relays / knobs / push buttons really have a CPU?
Nope, it’s just a timer-drive. cam triggering switches. The physical cam IS the CPU.
We have reached a point in time where there are adults who think everything that runs through multiple steps must have a microcontroller, because only really really old machines* do without.
*For the most part. I bought a brand new whirlpool dryer late last year, and it has a mechanical timer in it.
Having a newer machine cost me slightly less money on utilities, and considerably more in washing machine parts.
There’s more to go wrong on an old washing machine and each control board was unique to the machine
What? Old washing machines just use switches and a cam that’s on a timer. Anyone who can read a basic schematic can figure out what is wrong with one.
Interesting how effective a strike is.
I couldn’t imagine the stress of knowing what I know now and being sent back to when I was six years old. I’d be trapped with my parents.
I’d take the money. My wife is amazing, and we are very happy together, but a lot of things had to fall just right for us to end up together.
I’m a dirty slut for iced tea, but not the cloyingly sweet stuff that you’ll find in restaraunts. And you’re right it’s much cheaper. A box of 22 gallon-sized tea bags is like $5.
There is a great XKCD that shows comparisons for the amount of sugar in a soda, and it’s wild. A 20 oz coca-cola has as much sugar as three cadbury creme eggs.
Yours too? I swear I lost ten pounds just by drinking water and tea instead of soda.
I have everything lying around to build one of these…
This. I have a DJI mini 2, and while that isn’t a combat drone used by anyone’s military, it’s pretty much impossible for me to see it at it’s “maximum” altitude of 122 meters and at that height I can get pretty good real-time video. I’m pretty sure it will exceed that altitude limit if I wanted it to, and there’s no way I could see it or hear it at 200 meters. And it would still get me useful video.
I have to assume that the drones being used by the UA are better than my silly little camera drone.
Ooo, that’s good. Also try William Shatner.
I live in Oklahoma, drive an Old Green Truck™, have a lazy dog of unknown breed, and I work in a machine shop. Last week my neighbor and I rebuilt a motorcycle engine and put it in his bike. My wife and I have chickens. I’m a pretty sterotypical “redneck”.
I’ve voted democrat in every election since 2000.
It sounds like OP is terribly confused, and is associating people from two different groups while they really have nothing in common, which is something MAGA dipshits also do.
Doesn’t that list also include Iran?
