Chicago and Washington DC are different cities. Are you contending the Pope shouldn't come to the US if the President has something planned?

Your looking at it from a digital era. When things were paper based, month-day-year made a bunch of sense.

Our work paper archives are stored in "year" boxes (used to be filing cabinets). Open those, and you have folders that have month-day-year on their tab label. This makes it so you can quickly go through the folders sequentially quickly. If you did YYYYMMDD, you would need to ignore the first 4 numbers. DDMMYYY, the labels won't be in numerical order.

Putting files back, you look for the correct year, but then it's easy to drop the folder back into it's numerical position.

In a digital structure, filing records is automated and we can use a search function, so we do store digital files as YYYYMMDD.

It was a complaint about 25 years ago when the first iteration came out. There was a full King of the Hill episode about it. Since then they refined the low flow toilets to be as good as the older style.

Samsung Fridge/Freezer. About every spring and fall, our fridge freezes over in the cooling system. The ice builds up and blocks the fan which stops circulation so that the fridge warms up and spoils all the food. Samsung says there is no major issue but it seems to be common flaw talked about online. The fix is to take apart the back of the fridge and remove all the ice. One constantly on of the edge of buying a new one.

I'd assume both South divisions would vote unanimously against it.

They are auditing the security of the payment system, not DOGE directly.

Short for WAshington POst (a US newspaper/website)

The Washington Post article goes over the threats and there is nothing substantiating the armed militia.

It would be a bit odd to me for the national guard to report to the US Forestry that they saw an armed militia and wouldn't be actively pursuing it. Seems more likely is was a miscommunication in a hectic environment.

They did. The threat was established to be incorrect and the lone person making the threat was detained, and workers are back in the area.

I think it's supposed to be clothing and talking style is more casual on left and more formal on right.

Looks like you found a scam site that took a photo from Solid Starts (https://solidstarts.com/foods/bread/). My wife followed them with our first kid as it gives good suggestions on when to introduce foods and how. All the info is free.

I think they also sell recipes and other bonus info, but I'm not certain.

It's sad to see him go, but I'm glad he's going to a place that he can compete to start. I don't think he's good enough to lead a team deep into the playoffs, but he does make watching games fun.
