Amazon owns IMDB, it's a tainted resource.

I hope Ukraine wins and takes a cut of Russian territory as compensation.

I wonder if he would have made the same review if it was made by apple/samsung/google.

Elon probably did do that and told his engineers to make it.

Almost everything sold in USA is measured in metric and imperial units (technically wrong name, US customary units). You can get by with either.

Also, the measuring by volume can be bad for salts, because different types take up different volume amounts. A tale of two salts by Chef John (foodwishes channel on YouTube) has a nice little video about this: https://youtube.com/watch?v=XGCY9Cpia_A

My dad owns stock in some train companies. I was looking at their voting stuff recently, and the two I looked at had a vote for safety measures/committees. Both recommended against it. One was voting on raising the worker limit of 2, also recommended against.

If you didn't know, votes are weight by how much stock you own, so if you own the majority, your vote is counted as such. The companies themselves and the major stakeholders (rich people and other companies) are basically voting on themselves, mostly the rich and powerful. The system is straight up corrupt even though it sounds okay on the surface.

I'm a tea drinker and have been looking for a good pot that's easy to clean for ages. I have hard water, which leaves a lot of residue behind. And I would like to avoid chinese manufacturing. Currently I just boil water in a small sauce pot on the stove, which doesn't have the ability to stop heating at certain temps needed for certain loose leaf teas.

ToS and the like are legal documents that people/customers 'sign' or agree to before using a service or product, usually agreed or signed AFTER a purchase has been made. Arbitration causes in these documents mean that you agree to not sue the company for any reason, like a class action lawsuit. Basically if you feel like you have been scammed or taken advantage of by that company, you cannot sue for damages. ToS are not the law though and can be superceded by legal means, like a lawsuit ironically. Correct me if I'm not 100% correct, as I'm not a lawyer and this is just my understanding of this.

It's okay. I don't mind the fire rate after putting on 2 fire rate mods and the incarnon fire rate increase. The DPS is a little too low for me to use all the time.

The biggest problem is the aiming. The arm is in the way of the reticle.
