And just like that, Lockheed stock dumped 6%.

Only 38 senators? Not even the entire party?

I have little doubt Pete Hegseth would gargle Trump's balls if requested and would absolutely command the military to do unspeakable shit. I don't have any idea what the average service member would do, but I would hope there'd be some internal resistance.

A sane president who values geopolitical allies would just work out a deal with the host country to install more military bases in the region of concern, rather than burning every partnership we have by being aggressively expansionist.

I have a pre-alarm smart home automation that has Google say "cuddle me vitch."

"Vitch" because it sounds indistinguishable from "bitch" and Google would otherwise self-censor.

Only for those who don't hide their shame by disabling clipboard history. I have my reasons...

I'll give that a go next time SolidWorks plays dumb. Right now it's being nice.

Thanks for the tip!

Here's the kicker: I work in SolidWorks. I frequently use the measure tool and copy dimensions from an assembly to paste into a part sketch. It used to always work, but lately it hasn't been reliable, pasting an empty string into the dimension entry instead. However, if I paste the copied text into Notepad first, then copy the text from Notepad, I can then paste it back into SolidWorks just fine.

Yeah, it's odd. Wikipedia lists the sinking as 1892.

Across the five Great Lakes. There's three recorded sinkings in 1940, and none are the Western Reserve. The Arlington was found February of last year. Maybe there was some context lost from one writer copying another.

If I was Zelensky, I'd probably distrust any US intelligence going forward anyway. Cross-validate US intelligence against that of European intelligence while tracking Russian equipment movement during the ceasefire, ready to unleash a simultaneous strike against everything within reach the moment Russia breaches the agreement.

My girlfriend's mom bought pillows for herself and gifted us towels, much to our disappointment. The towels are unremarkable.
