People volunteer for causes they think are worthy. I would never do the work I get paid to do for free or for 10% of gross pay. I’d just find a less stressful job, work way less and make about the same.

What incentive is there to keep working at a 90% tax burden?
You can do something similar with damaged metal threads, instead of toothpicks using copper wire strands. Project Farm has a video on the technique comparing it to other fixes: https://youtube.com/watch?v=jknMrFOGMOQ

This will tend to happen if you’re snapping the floss in between each tooth. Use a gentle back and forth motion to slip it between teeth, and slide it against the side of each tooth gently. If it hurts, you’re probably being too rough. Also maybe start with once per day, in the evening.
I’d challenge anyone to A/B a 16bit 44kHz sampled digitization with the original and tell the difference consistently. This is one of the reasons I love pbthal vinyl rips, his rig is awesome, I could never afford it, and it captures the sound I’m looking for. The 24 bit 192kHz vinyl rips on torrent sites are chasing ratio IMO.
There is also the trifle that they’d need to be redesigned to place the driver controls on the left. And then of course nobody would buy them even if they were exempt from most of that, because they were made to do 25km/h through Japanese villages and are not well suited for American freeway use.

That’s hard to comprehend, since vtsax is up about 100% since 2014. Did the other funds really perform that badly?
Of course, takeoff and climb are typically at full power but to reach cruising altitudes for a single engine airplane doesn’t take very long. It’s a similar concept to a car on a highway onramp, except that airplanes actually get more efficient at higher altitudes.
It factors into overall consumption but it doesn’t really blow the whole equation for efficiency. Pilots in training do takeoffs and landings on repeat for hours at a stretch between refueling.
A Rutan Long EZ running autogas has a better environmental footprint than a Prius and is more than twice as fast
“FAA approved STCs for the use of G100UL in all general aviation piston airplanes in September 2022”

God that is so fucking glorious
Further clarification: Only gasoline powered aircraft without the Auto Fuel STC require leaded fuel.
Although, there is an initiative underway to fully phase out leaded avgas. G100UL is the FAA approved formulation. Exciting time and long overdue.
Would be super impressed if a C130 didn’t end up in the cornfield on t/o
In the coming decade, China will dominate technology because it has focused intensively on the important partnership between the public and private sectors with stunning results.
It’s the “partnership between the public and private sectors” in particular that lost consumer and foreign government trust in technology originating from China.
How is China going to “dominate” anything when it’s spent the last 20+ years shamelessly ripping off R&D through reverse-engineering and corporate espionage? What can it even claim of its own as true innovation?
It’s not on my ID, though. And even if it were, they’d need a way to monitor actual occupancy over time and there’s no way that wouldn’t be invasive.
It’s common and reasonable to be away from home for months at a time, and you have a right to travel. I can only imagine the burden this would place on someone who’s away for medical treatment or supporting a distant family member. Or just out of the house for renovations or an issue they can’t afford to fix currently.
The administrative burden alone would be huge before you get to unintended consequences.
Had the same perception on a dualsport motorcycle. Great being able to see over traffic but oh man it’s a long way down when you fall.
The issue is that right now I’m willing to put in the extra effort for the return early in my career. If the government were to effectively cap income potential, some workers who would otherwise be more productive (or who perform a highly specialized service) will not bother, creating a labor shortage and increasing costs. Not a smart move if you’re a country with an inflation problem that’s been trending very close to full employment.
It would also make occupations like medicine that have long runways to earning even less attractive.
