If they don’t already have one in the works, I’d be surprised if they could come up with one in that short a timeframe. Unlikely they do, as there’s typically a multi years long hype as design takes it’s sweet ass time to become a product.
Still, if it would actually have the functions of a truck, (not like the silly toy Cyberdork) I’d consider one.
In my truck..almost always. It’s important to see side to side when backing out, and on a larger vehicle, that doesn’t happen until you’re already blocking the aisle. The only exception is angled spots, which only inconsiderate morons back into.
As for our other cars…it depends.
Depending on family size in CT, one could have a full time (lower paying) job and still received medicaid. There are/were different levels, some that the recipients would pay into.
When I was in high school, every once in a while the grandkids would have to get 'gifted' a modest amount of money. This had to do with with how much money was 'in danger' of being carried over in the bank due to the timing of the payouts of their social security and his work pension. Too much of a balance could apparently cause an issue with their Medicaid eligibility.
A couple people in their late 80's, of very limited function, on the verge of getting tossed because they had an extra thousand bucks in the bank. Weird.

Now they’re saying she died first from hantavirus, which you catch from rodent excrement, which causes respiratory failure. She died around A WEEK before he did.
He had Alzheimer’s which might explain why he didn’t report his wife’s condition or perhaps even notice she was dead. He died from heart disease.
Now I read the dead dog was crated. They don’t say explicitly but starvation/thirst would be the logical explanation. Must have sucked to be that dog for its last days.
Well that sounds awful all around.
There have been a number of discussions in Piano Tech Journals/forums over the years warning how not to deal with mouse poop commonly found inside pianos. Particularly in south western states, how important it is not to simply use a shop-vac. The disease itself is fairly uncommon, but the mortality rate is quite high.
I wonder how much is also due to birthrates. Strongly religious Christians tend to have more kids.
So do we think someone read him the right act about his initial "outbreaks happen all the time" response?
In any case, if he's willing to back of on his more...outlier beliefs, and focus on nutrition/fitness, I'm happy.
He understands that no matter what--his policies are going to be presented as disastrous for the country/world. So, get as much done as quickly as possible...let the reporting on it play out..and hopefully by mid-terms there will have been some time for the actual policies to have there effect, and people can vote based on their perception of the results, not just the reporting.
Slight chance I'm being optimistic here, but it's the best I got.
Haven't been in the dating pool for nearly 30 years, but if I was... finding out she's one of those nitwits who makes those stupid unwatchable videos would be much more a turn off than having had a prior kid.
A forever bachelor (even when he tries not to) friend of mine has made the comment..."A kid or two from one prior, is no big deal. But once she has multiple baby-dads...that's a red flag. Seemed reasonable.
I don't understand what the hold up was to begin with. He was convicted to beating and scalding to death a 6 year old.
Also have trouble how anyone could be in a photograph with the shit head; smiling like she's at at a night out with the besties.
Or, couldn't they just be known as an agency that isn't engaged in national security matters?
Seems the difference in FBI, DoD, etc, should be clearly distinguishable from Dept of Transportation, or whatever.
Cost of install at point of manufacture is probably pretty reasonable, done well, and adds a nice feature that will hopefully resonate with modern piano buyers. Crossing my fingers they've worked to make it as open ended as possible. A lot of this proprietary nonsense piano makers have come up with is counter-productive to the industry long-term. (imho)
There's a reason MIDI standard remained relevant for so long...even as "HD MIDI" languages with thousands vs 127 levels of expression have been around for so long.
Interesting. Bechsteins from that era (over 100+years) were known for having trouble with their castings, though nothing noted in this particular case. Would be interesting to know a bit about how it sounded prior to the work it received in the 60's. Hammer replacement at the time was as much about "What exists and can be made to fit on this piano" rather than some sort of particular ideal. Likely explains why it felt a bit heavier too.
Cool that it was able to find a place as prominent piano. A good overall scale design, with a hammer type that wasn't typically found on this type of piano, seemed to help make it stand out.

If RFK is genuinely open to that outcome, that'd be great.
In general this is unlikely. Conspiratorial thinking is generally caused by psychological factors, not dispassionate reviews of evidence. He probably needs new brain wiring, not exposure to yet more evidence.
Simple: Just frame the evidence as an even better conspiracy. Instead of distributing a boring binder full of charts and graphs, they could put it in the form of a 149 page soft cover book for $9.99 at the supermarket: “Common sense things they don’t want you to know.”
Yeah, looks pretty unhealthy…That industry does weird things to people.
Kind a butthead move by the photographer though. She looks to be signing a photo form him, so he takes and the posts an obviously pretty unflattering photo.
It must be all the federal workers that didn't get laid off, now looking to move closer to the office.
I used to listen to Colin Cowherd a lot when he was on ESPN. (now a fox sports guy)
NBA, and NFL were doing well at the time, with MLB and NHL having trouble in their respective markets. His opinion was the leagues that were doing well---the business people (owners) were more in control. When the power dynamic shifted too far to the players...product on the field ended up suffering, with ratings and attendance following.
Not sure his thoughts these days. Sports guys are tough to listen to, with a constant dash to make the next 'hot take'
I've been so overwhelmed with work for so long, that personally, I'm fine. (my problem is getting the right help, but that's another thread) My business is quite small---just myself, a road tech, a couple moving assistants, and some occasional shop help.
Some of those that that are set up with multiple full-time people in restoration shops, have been noticing a long-term downward in major restoration work. Not a collapse---just a noticeable change .
