They say it like that because people are used to being billed in kWh so it gives them a reference.

I was thinking the same thing.

If we were to actually get involved, kick it off with an A-10 singing the song of it's people, and eliminate all russian forces in Ukraine in no greater than 24 hours.

If you're not willing to do that then just stay home, we've seen how the 'slow war' style goes.

Or if he winds up in a trolley problem type situation.

The prompt only says the villianous plans backfire

For real, give me the ol' "Hey, bud?" first and then when it's clear I'm paying attention, then ask.

People do eat bear meat. I'm sure some just skin it and leave it but it is plenty edible.

SCOBYs (Symbiotic Cultures of Bacteria and Yeast) could have some possible applications as fake leather but I don't know if anyone is working on it or if it could actually be made strong enough.

One example where we just do not have an equivalent is motorcycle gear. Yeah we have textile jackets, and I have one because where I am the risk of heat stroke in a leather jacket is more of a concern, but if you want abrasion resistance, leather is the best you can get. Can SCOBYs compete with that? I don't know.

Them discarding the flower doesn't mean they arent using the hemp part.

I would imagine they seperate those almost immediately if not the moment it's out of the ground. If they're using a combine to harvest it, then that probably seperates it.

10 minute drive (where I live) is typically 6-10 miles. Average walking speed is 3mph so you're talking over 2hrs. I had to do it once on a tractor and it sucked, and that was doing 10-14mph.

Yeah. At that point, get a wagon and a trailer. That's my current setup but I am pushing the limits of it. 3 people + luggage + trailer + 2x 500lb bikes is really more than that flat 4 and CVT wants. I'm already having to do suspension mods to make it more comfortable and I'm still (officially) 700lbs under the tow rating.
