I think there's a bug causing threads that don't have an image to pull a random thumbnail. I've seen a lot of unrelated thumbnails the last couple of days, but this is the first NSFW one.
Man, I hate that BlueTooth doesn't have an equivalent of "line-out" that isn't affected by the host devices' volume settings. It's so annoying when I can barely hear my music because I turned the volume way down on my phone while watching a video late last night.
Person B has had a credit card with a $20k limit for ten years, generally has a balance of less than $2k, and has never missed a payment.
Can you see how B is a less risky client than A? A is essentially an unknown risk, but B has demonstrated the ability to manage their debt. A could still get, for instance, a car loan, but likely not a mortgage. And B will get a lower interest rate.

The ruling sought to clarify the medical exceptions in the state’s bans, and was in a response to a lawsuit from women who were denied abortions despite medical emergencies.
There is a such a thing as an affirmative defense, though. An affirmative defense allows a person to commit an act that would otherwise be illegal under certain circumstances. However, as the name implies, an affirmative defense has to be argued by the defense. The burden is on the defense to prove that they acted under the circumstances permitted.
Consider murder, for instance. Self-defense is usually an affirmative defense. The prosecutor's only burden is to prove that you killed someone. You have to demonstrate that you were acting in self defense in order to avoid the guilty verdict for murder.
So @vettnerk is asking a good question: will it be assumed that the doctor acted in good faith, or bad faith? Does the defense have to justify the abortion, or does the prosecutor have to demonstrate that it wasn't necessary?
The standards on residential water heater efficiency, which are required by Congress, have not been updated in 13 years. Water heating is responsible for roughly 13% of both annual residential energy use and consumer utility costs, the DOE said.
Heat pump water heaters already exist, but I think they're pretty expensive compared to gas/resistive heat.
I wouldn't be surprised if electric tankless water heaters are indeed infeasible under this mandate. Heat pumps generally aren't powerful, and tankless heaters require enormous amounts of power while in use.
