Ah, I am always happy to talk to a fellow angle-grinder enthusiast. I've had too many Dewalt bushings go bad--they're a false economy, enshittified to make line go up.
For me, Milwaukee is that sweet spot for value and quality.
I think the crossing I'm thinking of might be at a 30 degree angle or so, so that might be the logic there. But in that case: Caution Angled Railway would be more likely to result in actual caution instead of contempt.
I do remember a sign of bike crashes someone made for a city and all the hotspots were angled railway crossings.
There's a short bike/pedestrian lane built near me to raise property values near some boutique stores--anytime it intersects the car road, there's a sign to dismount. Message: you clearly aren't riding your bike to get anywhere.
The role of the US government has increasingly been to extract wealth from the populace. If someone can make money, the USG is right there to help them do it, hoping it gets a cut in campaign contributions.
Starting with the automobile industry, continuing to online sports betting, and now this. We are not citizens of a nation, we are cattle on a confederated farm.
Well, the probably imprison less people because they are functioning much better as a society. The question is if imprisoning people is better than not imprisoning them in this fucked up society.
I'm in the US, but we generally lock up and/or deport way too many people; incarceration causes more problems than it solves, and serving white supremacy is the main social goal and outcoe.
But I think this is a separate conversation. The anti-gambling laws I'm talking about are the ones that would prevent constant Draft Kings advertisements and all the money that gets fed back into our political system. We've got so far away from acknowledging the damage that gambling causes, and gambling, as far as I'm concerned, is just a mugging with extra steps, yet paid propaganda has papered over the criminality.
I honestly wonder if there isn't a deeper history. Gambling is a part of human culture and the only recent thing that's happened is our society has become so corrupt that gambling is being allowed to legally flourish.
Like bank deposit insurance, vaccines, and clean water standards, anti-gambling laws are something society is reminded it needs only after they are gone.
Submarines can swim underwater, too, just like humans. So if we put a plow on the bridge of a submarine and had it interface with an LLM, we'd basically have a super human.
Are you counting the Eastern Empire? There's an argument that our view of “Rome” is obnoxiously Eurocentric. The economic lifeblood of the Empire was mostly outside of Western Europe, and lots of wheat from Egypt.
Oh, no, sir. That would be a crime.
I mostly use angle grinders for my sourdough. A bread can never be too hard is my personal opinion.
