This is how my younger brother gets his drugs sent to him without my parents finding out. Honestly, I'm impressed he even knew about it...he's 17. The kids going places. Maybe even your kids soccer game to sell those drugs...be on the lookout.

Saving you all a click:

We’ve noted how agricultural machinery giants like John Deere have spent several years waging war on independent tractor repair shops in a bid to monopolize maintenance and drive up costs. We’ve also noted that every time industry promises to stop doing this, it turns out they’re largely full of shit.

With John Deere now facing increased action on “right to repair” reform in Congress, at the DOJ, and in numerous states, the company has been trying to pre-empt reform by striking silly, pointless memorandums of understanding with key agricultural groups.

For example last January, John Deere struck such a deal with the American Farm Bureau Federation, claiming it would do a better job of making repair manuals and parts available to independent repair shops and farmers, if the Farm Bureau agreed to never support right to repair legislative reform.

The problem: the agreement wasn’t actually binding, pre-empted real reform with real penalties, and John Deere already had a long history of empty promises on this front.

This week, the American Farm Bureau Federation struck another similar memorandum of understanding, but this time with another agricultural giant with a history of attempting to monopolize repair: CNH Industrial. It’s effectively the same as the John Deere deal; CNH Industrial pinky swears that it will try a little bit, in exchange for the AFBF agreeing to not support meaningful legislative reform.

Right to repair activists at organizations like PIRG aren’t particularly impressed:

Our key criticism of the Deere MOU was that it did not provide farmers with reasonable paths to recourse should the manufacturer deny them repair materials. And the manufacturer could walk away from the agreement with a mere 30 days’ notice.

Both of these are true for the CNH Industrial MOU as well. As a result, farmers are at real risk of being left out in the cold without what they need to fix equipment they spend up to $800,000 for. That’s not an acceptable outcome.

Industry giants aren’t going to meaningfully adhere to voluntary pinky swear agreements. They’re simply trying to delay the inevitable implementation of state and federal right to repair guidelines with actual teeth. Organizations claiming to represent constituents and keen on real reform probably wouldn’t be letting their organizations be used as props toward that end.

If you played the Diablo 4 Closed Beta, they are the same.

Back in 2002 when I got to my first duty station I purchased a Braun 8585. It still runs perfectly and the original battery still holds enough charge for 2 full shavings of my face before it needs charged again (I always just have it plugged in when i shave anyways so it never dies mid shave).

I also haven't changed the foil in about 6 or 7 years...you're supposed to do it every 18 to 24 months. Still works perfectly.

Also, my cleaner broke about 11 years ago, so it hasn't had a deep clean since then...I've disassembled it before after I dropped it and a side popped off, and it was still clean on the inside.

Going through your comment history, OP is WAY better than you.

That 9 million dollars could also be used to fix the damn roads in Baltimore.

Ohh wait...F1 paid them to do that for the races there, but that money went to the politicians pockets instead...

Then get your sister to read these comments

Palad Khik....google it.

That's the best use of a Louis Vuitton bag I've ever seen

Lol...this other poster said baby bats and i thought they meant the animal. Sheesh im getting old. Thanks for the explanation!

Just give them electrolytes... they'll then need less water

Its just someone poetically leaving shit they dont want (the nightstand) out on the street without breaking the law.

How is someone as a parent supposed to be compassionate and caring towards a child that is a narcissist? My parents adoped a child that was diagnosed as a narcissist after adoption, and has nearly destroyed my parents 40 year marriage. How can compassionate care help in this situation?

It would be funny if the card said "made in china"

Ah... thanks. My suspicions were confirmed and this still isn't funny for me.

No worries on the spelling and some use of words. You did great. To aid in your english language skills, when you use a broom, we use the term "sweep" or while you are actively using the broom in the present tense, its "sweeping". When used in past tense, its "swept".

If Blackie is the dogs actual name, i would change it...that girl you mentioned might be a redditor and the amount of time spent on the phone could oust you if and when she finds this post. Change the name of the dog to "her most beloved dog" as most of us would understand that thats what the ashes are from...the dog.

Good luck OP. Enjoy your holidays and that birthday party. Dont say anything and dont act strange....act like you belong. If you act strange, people will figure something is going on.

My IQ is less than 160...please explain this to me.

Good for her. For real, she doesn't deserve that.

Lol

I had to look up rule number 1, which is the only rule apparently. It's not to my tastes, but it's sweet...and I'm sure they will have a fruitful marriage.

Must have had a discount of wedding cakes.

18% of slow is still slow...this is dumb.

You are not wrong. The amount of protests and tire fires was a bit much. I was riding my motorcycle one time to the Harley dealer and a few turns away I was about 4 cars behind a truck that stopped, 3 men jumped out and one tossed them tires. The dumped petrol all over the tires, lit them, and then they drove away. Was crazy to witness

I love Bahrain. Spent about 5 years collectively there in-between other deployments to the region. Still have local friends there and speak with them on the reg. They have all shown me some of the best the country has to offer. Back in the early 2000s, there were less laws...or at least enforced laws...as there are now, so it's not nearly as fun anymore for the US Military member, but there is just so much there to do. Most people there unfortunately just stay in the Manama area or stick to the more well known tourist areas. Sure, the black flag areas are off limits, but before Nabi Saleh became a restricted area to the US servicemembers, I used to walk from my villa to this place nearby that had the most amazing gnocchi. The locals were friendly and their kids loved to use my remote control nitro truck I used to have. Good people, even if they aren't too keen on my country's government.

I've been spat on while there, but that's few and far between. They cheered when the twin towers got hit...they chanted "death to America" when United Flight 93 (the movie) was in theaters and pretty much h put us on lockdown...but theres bad apples everywhere. It's the only country that I know of where I could get Chateaubriand, a bottle of red wine, hummus, Naan, fries(chips..whatever), veggies, and mashed potatoes with peppersteak gravy for 5.5BD (about $13 US)...its a shame they knocked down the Middle East Hotel where that restaurant was...what popped up after to take its place just capitolalized on our fetish for good beef and now we pay American prices (sometimes $80 for a good steak).

Thath Mike Tython to you, mithter
