Well, I learned that there is a phrase for one of my main complaints against web-serial authors ... besides just constantly slaughtering grammar, tense, and continuity, idiot plots seem to be extremely common in most web novels.
So in the above, it's probably "(male) the whatever", "(female) the whatever", "(neutral) the whatever". For English we don't often associate a sex with every object, but there are some exceptions: boats and ships are always female. So, if you want to say "the boat" using the french "the", you'd say "la boat". But (if say toilets were male), you'd say "le toilet".
I -o, you -as, he/she/they -a, we -amos, they (plural) -an
So, the verb amar (to love) becomes: amo (I love), amas (you love), ama (he/she/they love), amamos (we love), aman (they love). This works for any verb that ends in -ar in spanish (there are generally only three endings for verbs so this correlates to roughly 1/3 of spanish verbs!).
This is also a significant reason that spanish is considered more "romantic" than english -- the common verb endings makes poetry / songs easier to rhyme.
We conjugate verbs in English. We have "I dance", "He/She dances", "They dance" (singular), "They dance" (plural), "We dance", etc.
A lot of English verbs conjugate to the same word across different subject-types. This is also not the case for a lot of other languages.
In Spanish, for present tense verbs, of the -ar type, the conjugations are as follows:
"The" is the definite article. It means "this particular one". "A" is an indefinite article. It means "one of a class of things".
So, "the dog" means a particular dog. "A dog" means just some dog (ie not a cat / bird / etc).
In English, you don't conjugate the definite article. So, there is no special from of "the" depending upon what it refers to "the man", "the girl", "the person" all use the exact same word. This is not the case in other languages.
Those things are extremely efficient (better usage of the power from the diesel) compared to the trucking industry. That's where the real cost increases are coming.
Also, most food and even most consumer goods are shipped almost exclusively by truck. Trains tend to get heavy, or industrial freight because timelines for these products are longer, the heavier weight is less costly to transport by rail, or the item is needed in ridiculous bulk at extremely low cost (sand, for instance).
(usually on one semi truck before getting switched at the border to another one)*
Very much so. Almost all our produce is from either California, Mexico, or Central America (somewhere). The vast, vast majority of that crosses the border (usually on one semi truck), then is shipped from wherever to very close to your supermarket, then to your supermarket. All of it is done with diesel trucks.
Almost all consumer goods make the same trek. The vast majority of cost increases since 2021 are due to compounded costs from diesel increases.
Lego doesn't deserve being associated with him.
I-69? I-610? If the first, then that interchange also serves I-45 and TX-288, goes right through downtown, and distributes traffic, in total, between 7 out of 8 freeways leading out from the city.
I'll try to post an image showing how critical it is in a comment below...
Woo pig, sue-e?
Further: LLMs are just super-fing-fancy copy-paste machines where the copy operation takes the form of spaghetti from hell from the training data. They don't actually understand, or know, anything. They regurgitate training data that's gone through an insanely complex blender.
It's not that good. It's incredibly slow-paced. It had the same problem of Stargate: Universe ... not enough plot to justify its existence. Serenity was great.
Those were the first-settled areas. They were pushing into foreign lands with ... like a wooden-ship's-worth of people (or maybe three ships' worth) and then declaring it theirs. The resulting mish-mash is more "where do you end up on a boat if you sail west from Europe" than "someone planned this well."
Just look at the shape of Maryland.
Cheese.
I make well above the median, am single, and am about to have to cut eating-out completely to be able to afford anything else. I have no idea how other people are surviving other than going into massive amounts of debt.

I really, really, really want to see both this view and what's happening outside in a side-by-side.

Until you hit the mantle. Or, like, structural limits on your tower...
Also, the second circle holding up the back of the board is larger than the first (because the board rests flatly on both pairs of objects, but the circle/triangle is taller than the plain triangle). Given rather obvious inconsistencies and slight-of-hand, I'd doubt the rest of the video without any sauce.
Cosby was so funny and relatable as a kid. It's disgusting to see him at all now.

See below link for mounting evidence that RCV (Ranked Choice Voting -- a simple method to reduce national parties' stranglehold on elections) is better than first-past-the-post. This one of only a few realistic methods to slowly fix the USA's fundamental problems. When people can realistically run based off of their ideals, instead of adherence to one of two political whims, they will ... and the back of the two party system will break.
FAFO takes time when it comes to the executive branch. Congress is (and has been) stymied for years because of political parties which focus on talking points instead of actually improving things. Our government and laws have quite a few glaring issues that aren't getting addressed because the personal interests of those taking and controlling political power aren't aligned with the interests of their electorate. Changes have to start locally, then work their way up to federal power.
Bless all y'all!
