Your refund would be higher if you wanted them to hold on to more of your money throughout the year as an interest free loan. Is that what you want?

You’re spraying it around the rocket it’s not just sitting in a large puddle underneath. The goal is to be between the source of the sound/vibrations and the concrete.

If you can minimize the damage to the concrete then you don’t have to repair it as often.

Marvel and DC have always had similar and competing characters.
It’s similar on purpose.

This is not a new or novel solution and these have been used in industry for some time now.
Entire utility scale solutions exist such as a facility in China which has a 100 MW model. Compared to Lithium based batteries, flow batteries suffer from low energy density and low charge/discharge rates.
Here's their argument for flow batteries:
> With lithium-ion, the power and energy are fused together in a single package. If you want to have longer duration lithium above four hours [discharge duration] you’re basically buying power capacity you don’t need, that’s redundant
> -Lockheed Martin business development director Roger Jenkins
Which, if you know anything about batteries, is the dumbest excuse imaginable. This is likely simply to not rely on foreign suppliers of necessary metals and that makes more sense than purposely using an inferior technology because the current stuff is too capable.

Reply to comment by M4choN4ch0 in TIL that the narrative that Coca-Cola designed the modern Santa Claus as part of an advertising campaign is not true, because Coca-Cola did start using Santa in advertising in 1933. But Santa had been portrayed almost exclusively in red from the early 19th century by giuliomagnifico
Are you suggesting that they are lying?

One of the next lines is that she shouldn't have left him stop her. So you'd have to question whether she'd be physically capable of preventing him from stopping her or if she was referring to she shouldn't have let the thought of him stop her.
If it's the thought of Ralph then both sentences would make more sense.

There it is! Then they go on to claim it’s predicting and not labeling.
Yet, if this informs prescribing then you’ve automatically programmed bias and prejudice into the model.

How much did it cost you to house that gold, pay salaries for security, etc?
Due to inflation, the cost in gold is more and more for the same goods, because you still need to convert to the dollar.
