If the shield were to be made concave and faced towards its origin, it could end up focusing it back to where it came from as well.

Isn't there a problem with subsonic audio in that it's really hard to determine the direction it's coming from? Although with a crowd big enough I suppose you could probably get a visual indicator of where the source is based off of people's reaction to it.

Edit: After watching the video I don't really think a person holding a shield would be able to reflect something that was able to clear a space as wide as a street. I'd also wager that the people welding such a weapon likely have the appropriate hearing protection to keep the system from effecting their selves.

Pretty easy to disable the location app permission or set it to ask every time. Firefox hasn't asked me to enable it since turning it off.

Are you me? This is almost exactly how I do it, with only some small modifications.

I've seen a couple of things that I wish I hadn't, but I never opened a link to a beheading video. That was definitely one line I wasn't willing to cross.

Weirdly enough, I like buying movies to encourage people to keep making the kinds of movies I enjoy watching. I have some physical media, but often times you can't find 4k versions of movies on physical media.

Also, I tend to buy digital and don't watch subscription services much.

On the rare occasion I want to stream movies while on my PC at 1080p, because most online movie services will only stream 1080p to Edge. Some times Chrome will be allowed to stream 1080p but it's pretty hit or miss in my experience. On another note, basically no streaming services will stream movies to you in 4k on a PC, I've also found most streaming apps on my phone won't give me 4k either, you can only really get 4k streaming to a smart TV... it's pretty ridiculous.

There is such thing as loose leaf tea where you don't use tea bags when brewing.

After a bit further reading of the article it looks like they also found that certain types of tea bags helped.

Only using even numbers for volume or brightness.

Can 5 be an honorary even number?

During an interview with Fox News Radio, Trump conceded that Russia, not Ukraine, was the aggressor.

"Russia attacked, but they shouldn't have let him attack," he said.

Which step of the Narcissist Prayer is this? It's the last one right?

I may have to finally make the switch. Are there any initial pains that you found from switching?

A lot of that 30% goes to things other digital stores aren't even close to offering. Also, if your game does well enough the cut Steam takes is lowered, albeit this only really happens for very successful games.

That's a really cool concept that I hadn't really considered being an option before. As you said,.that's definitely going to take a lot of energy to accomplish so maybe it'll be an economic possibility after fusion is readily available, which sadly is still a ways away but getting closer to becoming achievable every day.
