This, and you can lift the float as well if needed

Yeah, and how big are the recording antennae?

The ice on the lift would have happened fairly quickly. Sometimes overnight if the humidity is high enough.

In English it’s called Rime Ice which happens as fog (or a cloud in this case) freezes as it condenses on cold surfaces.

It’s really beautiful, but a huge pain in the ass for lift operators since each chair will need a significant amount of beating to clean it off.

I’ve never seen it this thick in person, but I’ve been to the tops of lots of mountains where it’s pretty common.

Doesn’t thaT really scare things up later if (when) you need to make adjustments?

I’ve almost never left something unconstrained that I haven’t regretted later.

How many out you would subscribe to an anti-tailgater feature though?

It’s the pinch gesture isn’t it…

How is giving into authoritarian governments helping the oppressed populations in those countries?

Informing them that said authoritarians are blocking our private and secure email services in favor of surveillance, lets them vote against their leadership, or protest, if their votes aren’t counted.

North Korea is hyperbolic though, since they really aren’t even officially connected to the internet.

Yeah I’m worried equating the too will lead to voter apathy. And voter apathy leads to Trump winning (like it did the first time). If we have to have a grandpa in charge, focus on the competency of their advisers.

On is doing a lot to help the country. The other is planning an active takeover and purge of “half the ones who don’t agree with our dictatorship”.

The least believable think in Star Trek is that they figured out a universal time to keep track of. That would have been the biggest hurdle to that future from now.

it put me off buying one. I’m probably not the only one.

Fault!

Funny that we’d have never known he blew this shot without photographic evidence. Just like how he might not have had to resign if he hadn’t taped all his conversations.

That’s the other thing I blame Nixon for. Teaching the next rounds of scumbags to cover their tracks better.
