Calling it now. They'll scuttle these satellites, and the next day SpaceX will unveil a plan for their own, private weather satellite network that the US government will suddenly have money to pay up for. But it won't ever be accessible to plebs...

There's an old adage that I've heard multiple civil engineers tell me.

There are only two kinds of concrete. Concrete that has cracked, and concrete that is about to crack.
Your slabs having zero cracks until now is more impressive than it getting cracked NGL.

As long as the slab does not begin to separate (different pieces sink and leave ledges) its probably not worth pursuing. I'd throw sealant over the top to keep it from flaking and call it.

You joke but there are actually architects scale tape measures out there that have tenths of a foot and tenths and hundreths of an inch rather than the normal fractional scale.

Be warned if one is around, you might be about to have a really bad day.

All of a sudden gun control sounds good to the fascists. Very very weird.

Food in general is high value food now. Anyone not in the wealth holding class is considered second rate and irrelevant.

But in desktops, everyone seems to complain about Nvidia pricing, yet no one is touching Battlemage or the 9000 series? Why?

Its always been this way: they want AMD and Intel to compete so Nvidia gets cheaper, not that they will ever buy AMD or Intel. Gamers seem to be the laziest, most easily influenced consumer sector ever.

Major components of the surveillance network include the use of automated license plate reader (ALPR) technology, and monitoring of social media through “sock puppet” accounts. Meanwhile, Jackson County is using a third-party lease to make its publicly owned building available to ICE for its Southern Oregon field office, creating another “backdoor” for local government resources to be utilized by ICE despite Oregon’s status as a “sanctuary state.”

Our latest trove of public records total 313 pages. Below is an overview of the records, which were obtained through public records requests to the city of Medford, the city of Grants Pass, and Jackson County. We provide a downloadable copy of the records at the bottom of this blog post.
