"Biden is looking to lift virtually all the meaningful restrictions on the stockpile and the transfer of its arms to Israel, with plans to remove limitations to obsolete or surplus weapons, waive an annual spending cap on replenishing the stockpile, remove weapon-specific restrictions, and curtail congressional oversight. All of the changes in the Biden budget plan would be permanent, except for lifting the spending cap, which is limited to the 2024 fiscal year."

November 22, 2022 - 🎄🎉🍾🥳This holiday season, don’t forget “.. There is no evidence that an individual is worse off for having avoided earlier infection. “Immunity debt as an individual concept is not recognised in immunology,” Dunn-Walters says. “The immune system is not viewed as a muscle that has to be used all the time to be kept in shape and, if anything, the opposite is the case.” - https://archive.md/2023.11.24-115233/https://www.ft.com/content/0640004d-cc15-481e-90ce-572328305798
@dgodon That's a good point. I do still own a battery-powered rear light. Maybe I should revive it so I can stop worrying about the USB-A cables.
@glightly I know!Worse yet, the rack is placed right next to a supporting column of the building with not much space between the rack and the column. It means if I park my Tern like I did this time, shoppers have to walk around the column to get to the store entrance. I mentioned that to a storte employee and asked them to relay it to the management, but I'm not very hopeful.
Bike lights... I loathe the old USB-A interface still used with many of them. All my devcices at home (and at work for that matter) are USB-C, but i have to keep a USB-A cable just so I can charge my CatEye rear light.
