I'm not in the US, so maybe I'm wrong on this, but I would imagine trump has pushed a lot of people who would have voted republican into non voters. These would be the group I would be having conversations with, trying to convince them that voting democrat is a bigger protest than abstaining, and to do anything else is to risk an anti democratic felon becoming president.

You could also convert cars by putting harder valve seats in, not sure if this happened a lot at the time, or whether it's more for classic cars that are worth enough to make sense to do. I don't think the lead was primarily an anti knock additive, more of a valve and bore lubricant

The UK has something in common with Ireland that maybe the rest of that EU doesn't perhaps?

I don't really see how this represents any proof that these asylum seekers are illegal economic migrants. Rwanda isn't a safe country for asylum seekers, so it seems reasonable that people would try and avoid being sent there. If Ireland now appears safer, then travelling there from the UK makes sense surely? The position for "illegal economic migrants" hasn't changed substantially, as the likelihood of being sent to Rwanda is low. But if you are trying to reach safety, the threat of death or torture hanging over you might be enough to make you consider Ireland

I recently replaced the heating element in my delonghi coffee machine, and was also surprised to see how wild it was inside

I've been using retroarch with the Genesis Plus GX core, and that seems to work well and is open source. Not everyone loves retroarch, but I've moved to it so I can use some of the more interesting HDR 4k CRT shaders

Was hoping to find this here, many happy childhood memories playing this one

I'm pretty sure that is also the case in the US. These incidents are either caused by some sort of defeat device (I have seen weights that wrap around the steering wheel, no idea if they work), or people who have just gotten good at resting a hand on the wheel and not paying attention I think
