Looking at the diagram I'd judge that the proximity of a !30,000 rpm flywheel to the driver's family jewels might have something to do with it.

Why not replace the main air circulation filter with a HEPA filter? E.g., I have two filters on my AC/heating system that I replace every month or so even though they're still pretty clean. I'm tempted to simply put HEPA filters in instead. Any problems?

Or I could jury-rig it so that only half of the filter was HEPA and the other half MERV. That would still cut down tremendously on finer particles.

Why?

Dropping nukes on either/both Iran's or North Korea's nuclear facilities and then handing the smoking remains off to Joe Biden would be an excellent display of good judgment and provide something to keep the Democrats busy for a few years until we can have another election.

FTFA:

"three officials on Thursday morning: a French police official responsible for public security in a key section of central Paris, and two intelligence officials from NATO countries..."

So 3 European officials call it a coup? How about some evidence? This claim is drivel.

luord says >"...and keep using only Linux ..."<

Tempting but, since the last update, Ubuntu's disk indicator flashes every second, reminding me of the doomsday countdown in "Independence Day" and of HAL reading lips in "2001".

Ditto for me.

I supported ACLU for decades. But about 30 years ago I noticed their messaging changing: less about racial civil rights and a move toward sexual civil rights. I met someone who worked with their local offices and in conversations it became apparent that ACLU was undergoing a shift in management style: persons from the gay community were moving into local and national positions in their organization.

Fast forward to 20 years later ACLU was (also) now concerned about bullying in schools. I had seen one bullying incident in my entire life, despite exposure to all types of people. Seeing their fallback from black civil rights, the advancement of LGBT causes to the forefront, and the support of such causes as "bullying", I surmised that ACLU had "gone off the rails". It was no longer the organization I once admired. I ceased my contributions.
