it is possible for two opposing sides to be evil. If one evil is oppressing you that is the one you fight against but that doesn't mean you support the other. It is even possible for the worse evil to not oppress you as much.

I'm referring to the US, not Isreal. AFAIK the US only hit nuclear facilities, and anyone who would have died there was thus working in a nuclear facility.

Though Iran has been bombing Isreal residential areas for a long time - not directly, but they have been funding all the groups who have been sending bombs, morters, and everything else. Iran just deserves a share of the blame for Gaza genocide as if they were not enabling the attacks, Isreal would not be as interested in such attacks. (how much is not knowable, but there is a share for sure)

I have known a lot of good looking girls who I only want to see via binoculars - that way I can enjoy the eye candy but their terrible personality is invisible. Fortunately there are plenty of nice girls that are also good looking that I can get close to.

Just remember that they need to work on the coldest days: keeping the heat on. Including enough spare capacity for go in the ditch situations. This is well within the ability of an electric bus/truck. However if you don't account for that situation people will die in worst case situations where a gas tanks throws out plenty of extra heat. (the gas engine has other dangers of course, but the heat byproduct of how inefficient the engine is, is a useful feature that is often not accounted for correctly)

Still in delivery applications (including students), ICEs are at about their most inefficient and electric motors do very well. They would save a ton of money long term.

That was 11 year ago... Things change, and will change again. When someone is at war you have to look for the help you can get now, not how things were or will be. Stalin was worse than Hitler, but the US supported Stalin in WWII because Hitler was attacking.

Even if they did kill someone it would be someone working in someway with nuclear materials. (including the person who cleans the bathroom there though)

Make sure whatever you get is compatible with induction stoves - not everything is and one is likely in you future.

A modern car is likely better if you want power. a 1962 corvette came with 250-360 horsepower. A 2024 honda accord comes with 190, not far behind for a basic ecconomy car. The modern car will have much better handeling because we have better suspention.

which is to say it does happen (see other replies), but most don't because they are not that great. Besides if you race it something might break and you have to fix it.

Assuming you can get track and such parts. The right ones are not always available fast - but otherwise yes put the fire out and repair in hours.

The code allows for a disconnect switch near the oven instead. I've never seen this in residential applications though.

You should know that wd is for water displacement. If you are trying to do anything else there is a better chemical you should use instead.

How small? I bought a N100 system from Protectli which I'm happy with. It should work better than a pi according to the specs - but I never tried a pi so I can't say if it really is. However this is bigger than a pi. I have an old system76 Meerkat, which is much smaller (I think this is the NUC form factor?), but my system is 8 years old and so not really comparable to anything modern, but that is an option.
