It’s less the stalling and more that the clutch is heavy duty and can take the abuse of a learner grinding it a lot more.

I would recommend practicing on a truck at first. The clutch is beefier and can take the punishment of a newbie, and you’ll get more of an idea of how the clutch feels when it engages.

+1 on the carbon steel pan. Eggs slide right off mine.

In addition to the tips in this thread: Parchment paper rounds that fit inside the pan and work great for really really sticky stuff

If Cortana was named Bob I don’t think people would have less of a problem with it

RIP Skype

If I’m using Ansible or something to pull images it might get that high.

Of course the fix is to pull it once and copy the files over, but I could see this breaking prod for folks who didn’t write it that way in the first place

Yes I agree that the world is terrible and we will all die angry and frustrated because these psychotic apes can’t just get along.

Everything is about politics now. I watch space, aviation, and car stuff on YT and they’ve all had episodes that start off with “I try to avoid politics but the tariffs/whatever is having a big effect on this industry so I have to talk about it.”

It’s so bad I avoid watching explicitly political content because it’s too overwhelming.

What did that bird do to deserve that name?

Love the shoutout to Margaret Hamilton

Even fewer people are aware of internal DNC politics than they are of primaries. And based on my experience with a state and local Democratic Party it will take overwhelming force to push out the cliquey busybodies who dominate those sorts of organizations.

But if that happens then we have the problem of actually winning the general election more than once, otherwise it’s just a flash in the pan and back to business as usual.

The structure of our government makes pushing for legislation without a cohesive party and total dominance nearly impossible. One jerk can torpedo the whole thing, and unless we provide significant change all the folks who get excited to vote won’t bother coming out to vote again, and the progressives lose.

And the neat part is that this can happen just two years into any massive reform and undo the whole thing.

tl;dr - I don’t think it will work. I don’t think anything will work. The system is too broken and the problems are too big and numerous.

The world was very different 80 years ago. In order to have that kind of governance we’d have to restore people’s faith in institutions as a concept which is at an all time low.

Progressives don’t win because progressives don’t vote, and they don’t vote because they don’t trust the establishment.

As much as I’d love a progressive third party there are too many people who would immediately dismiss it that it won’t happen without giving conservatives the entire government.

Though that already happened so maybe.

To be fair, they can barely win even if they’re backed by billionaires.

I think it’s because this is a fundamentally conservative country, especially if we just include voters, and they don’t want progressive things.

And the people who don’t vote do that because they don’t believe that the government can actually do something that really helps them because it hasn’t really happened in their memory.

If you ask ordinary folks about government they don’t like it, so why would they think it would help them?

Plus pollen means having to pay to clean it off.

Wow she really isn’t very good.

How were we so starved for something that we latched onto her baloney?

Obligatory:

I know, I’m disappointed that humans are humans, too.

One thing that must happen for this is the elimination of all nation-state imposed trade and labor barriers. No more immigration checks, no passports or visas: Free, global labor distribution.
