While I can concede your point that it's feasible and possibly even more practical to open from the stem, I gotta say that since switching to the other end years ago(because I saw a similar thread on reddit), it's been super easy and I've had zero issues. The stem just has a higher rate of fucking up, but it's not like either end will fully decimate the banana. Peeling properly after it's opened is an easy fix either way.

IIRC, the reason sodium batteries would be better is we have abundant stocks of sodium, whereas the raw materials for most other batteries are limited and require more destructive mining. John Oliver just covered some of this on his show last Sunday. If that tech can be improved, hopefully there won't be any deep sea mining for more raw materials!

Tbf, they do have similar faces. They both did a solid job in their roles imho, just the occasional over-acting.

Wow... thanks for more context! So a state agency error results in the judge and prosecutor not having the correct information, but how does the defense attorney not look that up? Maybe overworked, but I would hope for more... And Harris should've spoken up himself that the suspension was lifted on this date by this agency! He could've also just said- I'm driving legally right now. That would have allowed the lawyers to look into it more.

Ooph, legit reddit vibes with that exchange, as I hadn't seen BTB referenced on lemmy yet. I need to check out that episode too! Appreciate it

Sign me up, too. This looks and sounds fantastic!

Man, what a beautiful game. Very entertaining!

Got emmmm

In addition to the veto power mentioned above, there's also the power to issue executive orders and to nominate judges, including supreme justices. Those are fairly significant. There's also the influence they have over foreign policy.

I've tried a few types of coconut-based yogurts that were tasty. I'm not a fan of almond milk, so didn't like those varieties as much. On the cheeses though, completely agree! I had one that was tolerable, but definitely falls in the "not good" category.

But how long would those appointments be? Many justices have written about how long it took to adjust sitting on Scotus, even if they had plenty of experience on the court of appeals(Sotomayor I think?). So like a 10 year period might work. Scalia and RBG voted together a surprising number of times... So there is something to the experience brought to the table. Thomas's corruption is just nuts and Alito is frustrating, but the other justices at least have substantiating arguments mostly.

I know it's fairly simple to make but I haven't taken a stab yet. Do you mind sharing your recipe for the granola?
