Hard to say without a scale reference, but if it's small, I very small might very will be a proprietary fastener for higher security applications. If it's a Tesla battery pack, then the epr 5-point torx is a good candidate. If it's an apple device then searching pentalobe might get you farther.

What on earth is it? Pics? Ruler next to it?

Yeah..

Life's fulfillment is in many ways measured in the quality of your relationships. Frankly, if you want to make meaningful relationships, you need to be the kind of fellow you or a regular person would want to be around.

You can't really be a different person and you shouldn't try. Instead you need to be the best version of yourself you can be. The one who listens well, or does nice things for others without expecting a reward. You have some positive instincts in there somewhere, but if you indulge selfishness, it will drowned out any of the positive aspects immediately.

Don't do this attention seeking bs. If you want help, get help. The world is full of others seeking connections and you'll break the hearts of family if you take the way way out. Maybe that's what you want? Have an impact just by inflicting harm? I hope not, that's what bad people do.

Get into bird watching or any other hobby. There's tons of poor, interesting, people with deeply filling lives out there. You're not uniquely suffering I'm afraid. Just pittying yourself.

No you're right. It's like Mitch Hedberg used to say about drinking though.. Still does, but he used to too.

They are, but Wells Fargo too.

If you ask a Marine they'll confirm that they're a department of the Navy, but then qualify it as "the men's department" before devolving into a yut-fest

Man is it refreshing to hear a Taiwanese perspective in the mix. Every post, every comment is a bunch of armchair "experts" talking about an issue they clearly haven't the slightest personal experience or context for. Not to come off as a jerk but it sure would be nice to hear what the actual people involved think instead of rank speculation. Reminds me of all the infectious disease experts during covid and military strategists in Feb 2022.

I wonder where it got it's name from?

I knew he got drafted but I didn't know Silverstein made it to Colonel!

CPT Willard: They told me that you had gone totally insane, and that your methods were unsound.

COL Kurtz: Are my methods unsound?

CPT Willard: I don’t see any method at all, sir.

I'd just love to see something non-formulaic this year. With the writer's strikes, and state of the film industry, I'll take anything at this point.

(Don't interpret this as criticism of the writer's guild. The people who make the art should absolutely be able to support themselves while executive split blockbuster profits)

Ah yes, the kind of sovereignty that doesn't have a monopoly on the state use of violence. That kind of sovereignty.

Little different post than typical but I remember being really excited about their tractor and compressed earth block press a long time ago.

Is this just one of those "never build something you can buy" type efficiency things? I'd love to know if anyone has had any direct involvement or firsthand knowledge.
