Why I likes the ABET requirement for engineering. Still have an 80% fail rate due to the standards, and you get audited for coursework.

I have yet to meet an employer who will hire an engineer from a non-ABET school.

The UL one is very applicable.

Chinese motor manufactures will often copy a design (completely rip it off) and make changes to make it even cheaper to manufacture. These make the motor no longer UL compliant. Sometimes these changes lead to it becoming unsafe, but good luck suing a Chinese manufacturer in China if your house burns down. However, they will still put a UL sticker on it and call it a day.

I used to work in motors and turbines and will outright refuse a motor made in China. Always buy motors from US or Mexican manufacturers (inside the US, cannot speak for EU). A good way to find out where the motor was made is looking to see the company that made it - and 100% your HVAC company didn’t manufacture the motor, they bought it from a B2B supplier you likely never heard of.

Rural people also vote for the political party that helps to make sure that the devil high speed internet never comes to their town.

It’s a combination of both. Young women don’t want to stay in these places because they all vote Republican and all republicans are hate filled bigots who view women as property.

The women leave for greener pastures, and the young men are left with no job prospects and no one to date. They get up and leave as well.

Since all these towns are hate filled trash heaps, no money gets invested into them. The farms are all corpo owned and don’t need the town, the Dollar General employs two people, and the used car lot has not sold anything in four years. There is nothing to do in these places except lie about being disabled (this is very different than having a real disability) sponge off the government, then watch Fox News all day and mald.

It would just be five Rage characters screaming at each other.

Nope. Rather live in a bad climate with progressive people than hateful people that infest most small towns.

Be careful when playing. People are reporting in reviews that their game files are getting corrupted after falling off ledges in various dungeons. People losing 100+ hour games.

We got screwed over, didn’t even get good museums out of the horrors and atrocities perpetrated by own government.
