It wasn't really a huge toll. It was 1 dollar a barrel, a ship carrying a million barells worth 100 million dollars of oil would pay 1 million. That is a 1% tax which isn't that big unless you are an oil company that is used to paying nothing or getting a subsidy.

I'm waiting for Iran to let through European bound vessels for free to set Trump up to order strikes on Spanish or British ships.

Start up a whole new front where NATO kicks the USA out and blockades the USA from international trade.

I got very expensive prescription Bolle sunglasses, they were stolen from my car. That was back in 2004 and weren't worth the money for something I wore about 4 times before they were stolen.

I have Maui Jim sunglasses that are great, the polarization is excellent for seeing wildlife in the water. I only wear them occasionally as I'd rather wear 10 dollar glasses I don't care about wrecking. So I have 4 or 5 pairs of different styles of cheap ones. Most important is to get polarized lenses, other than that if you go cheap you can try every style until you find the right ones for you.

They took the Arabic version and threw it on the ground, they keep their Hebrew copy in their chest pocket where it protects the Zionists cold hearts from softening.

If you slowly inhale through your nose while drinking the pressure from the air coming in will likely direct the water towards your esophagus as well as keeping water out of your nasal cavity.

If I'm going to put egg on my bread, I'll just dip it in an egg mixture and make a Monte Cristo sandwich, the ~~king~~ Count of Sandwiches.

Just want to add in a tip that I saw online that has changed my grilled cheese for the better. Instead of wasting time buttering your bread, just warm up the pan on medium with a knob of butter for each sandwich you are making. In the time it takes to get that melted and bubbling you can throw your sandwiches together.

It won't take long as you aren't buttering the bread it is just slapping cheese (and ham) between bread once the butter is melted put the bread in and lightly push down to sponge the liquified butter into the bread. When the extra butter in the pan has properly browned then the butter on the bread is likely just as browned and delicious. Pull the sandwich out then repeat the butter in pan step put the second side down in the butter.

My butter is always too cold to spread except for two or three months of the year when it is too soft, so now I'm not zapping the butter just to spread it only to cook it more. Better butter coverage as well.

Also I used to think potato bread was best for grilled cheese but now I know roasted garlic loaf is the best bread for a grilled cheese.

Sounds kinda similar to costochondritis, it is central chest pain. I thought it was a heart attack when I had it and went to the ER. Fortunately it was just costochondritis.

They should rename them Tesla firetrucks.

He never existed. He is a figment of a religious groups imagination. He is a fictitious character based on ideas of what a religion needs as a figurehead.

He killed a lot of cars in great way. He had an 80s Mercedes Benz that he took for a rip around a gravel pit that people would play around with their 4x4s. He drove in literally into the ground. Cracked the oil pan then drove it out of the pit onto the street then called a tow truck.

The tow truck driver spent 30 mins with his dispatch notating all the damage before he would pick it up, my buddy wanted it dumped at the junkyard anyways.

My buddy had a late 80s VW Fox which was pretty cool. He broke it doing a power slide around a corner and bent the front axle when the front left tire hit the median. There was no parts for it in the early 2000s

 
 

Update: Bad news, I redid the thermal paste on GPU and CPU and still having the crashes.

Good news, I got my tax refund and the OK from my partner to up the budget so I have put together another proposed build with a few comments from my post last week in mind as well as a higher budget.

I like ASUS and it has done me well so I changed the MoBo to another ASUS and changed the GPU and CPU to ones suggested in the comments.

[https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/6J2Tcx](higher budget build)

Please let me know what you think of this new proposed build. I figured I would just start fresh with everything new as I really don't know why the system is crashing. It already crashed once just while making this post. I'll only put in my old hard drives for access to all my media files.

rebuild a PC (ca.pcpartpicker.com)
submitted 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) by Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca to c/buildapc@lemmy.world
 

My 10 year old custom built computer is crashing a lot. I would like to use parts of it so I'm not blowing tons replacing everything.

The link for pc part picker has my current case, power supply, and CPU cooler which should all still be good to reuse. The other parts in that build are just ones I picked at random so are totally up for change.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I would prefer to keep it under 1000 CAD. If you want to see my actual current build I will put it in a comment.

Edit: I am running Linux Mint Cinnamon as of now. The PSU was replaced in 2021

 

Just under 3 hours start to finish for medium rare.

 

A few years back my sister passed away, I'm now the only child my parents have left. They live a few hours away and have for as long as I have been with my partner (7 years).

My parents are planning on moving to the place we now live to be closer to me. This has my partner worried that they will be over often or I will be over at their house more often. Her parents are very far away so can only visit once a year.

My parents are not the kind of people to show up uninvited to anyone's house. They likely will come over once a month for dinner and I will probably go over by myself once a week.

We are both pretty private people so not having anyone over is just how we are and this potential change of more visits has her concerned that our privacy will be gone.

I am also fine with them not coming over often, I like it being just me and her but I do want my parents close when they have medical emergencies.

How do I approach this as currently she is a bit annoyed but taking a more "see how this pans out" attitude?

I don't exactly want to jump the gun and talk to my parents ahead of time to make sure they don't come over often because I don't think they will and it might sour their relationship to her if they think she doesn't want them over ever, even if I also don't want them over often.

 

I tried but there was no fourth world that was a connection to the fight for Super Earth.
