The response to "what are you trying to hide" is always "WTF do you need to see so badly?"

He does like kids, so there's some substance there.

Doing a lot of anything for most at that age is taxing, but he's not doing the job other modern Presidents have done, by far. Any worry or anxiety he has is all about helping himself out, nothing to do with the country. I hope it's not a very long time, but I do hope it's a slow, painful burn on the way down. We need a bit of karma right now.

Water is wet. The sky is blue. Space is cold. None of these are as true as their phrase implies, as there's a lot of technicality involved.

Trump is a liar. Solid truth. No deviation there.

We have most of them picking job security vs. asking the hard questions, and when a few do ask something beyond what's expected from the officials we call them "brave". All of them should be doing this.

Some of them from some networks are playing the game because they profit from it, which is a problem as well.

Because the news is that some Republicans acted like they wanted to help people.

When it stops working.

The law protects them, however a law that isn't enforced or observed by officials is pretty useless. Ideally you would go along with the wrongly arresting officer to fight it in court, but when they are doing whatever they want, if you don't fight back at the start you could end up anywhere and in any condition. The only good thing is that so far they don't expect resistance, they count on people being scared. Resist. If you see someone in trouble, do something. It's apathy that helps this spread.

Get rid of coveting, you're undone much of what drives capitalism. That's a good thing, but it also ruins our society that is dependent on it.

I was thinking Beakman's World. Apparently it's just such a common phrasing in high school science that it became a meme without anyone's particular influence.

 

I have an older robot vacuum that has finally shown some age in its battery. The charger will charge for about 15 mins and then gets an error, but it's enough to do a decent vacuuming of the room if I charge then vacuum, then repeat once more. I can't leave it on the charger now due to the error repeating, so basically I run it dead until the next time.

So my question is, can I continue doing this since it works well enough, or is there potential problems/danger with the battery being at less capacity? I could buy a new battery, they aren't terrible in price, but if it works and is safe, why not continue what I'm doing until it completely gives out?
