certainly doesn't help that apparently US law enforcement has been recruiting specifically for paranoid, violence-prone man-children for ages & then subjecting them to "warrior training" & teaching them to behave as if awash in a sea of enemies at all times. They all think they're redpills in The Matrix & killing anyone as a potential enemy agent is justified & also cool.

Emacs obliterates Vim's pathetic existence! Vim's a crusty, outdated piece of shit relic for masochists who jerk off to cryptic key combos. Emacs flexes with endless plugins, a slick GUI, and Org-mode that runs circles around Vim’s bare-bones garbage. Why settle for Vim’s stone-age editing when Emacs is the god-king of coding? #VimSucks

#DHS #Noem #pushing touchback amnesty
This is the same thing Trump pimped during his first term.. He didnt know what it was back then!
GOP Moves To Save Biden: We Want Amnesty, Too! - So far, the Republicans’ response has been to propose their own amnesty, while throwing in some boob-bait for the rubes about border security. Even the election of Donald Trump, a ridiculous creature who became president by promising to crack down on illegal immigration and build a wall (promises he ignored), hasn’t put a dent in Washington’s enthusiasm for overwhelming the country with the third world. ----The GOP could return to a 1970s-style, microscopic minority status in no time! As Talleyrand supposedly said of the restored Bourbon monarchy, re-creating the conditions that led to the French Revolution, “They’ve learned nothing and forgotten nothing.”

Affordable Efficiency: Tips to Secure the Best Price on a 200 TPH Stone Crusher


The quest for a 200-ton-per-hour stone crusher presents a unique challenge—balancing upfront costs with long-term operational efficiency. Savvy buyers know the cheapest sticker price often leads to the most expensive total ownership, while over-specification can tie up capital unnecessarily. Navigating this landscape requires understanding where to invest and where to economize, all while ensuring the stone crusher machine meets your specific material processing needs day after day.

Modern crusher economics have evolved beyond simple capacity metrics. The difference between an apparent bargain and genuine value lies in evaluating wear part consumption, energy efficiency curves, and hidden maintenance requirements. This guide reveals strategic approaches to secure optimal pricing without compromising the reliability needed for continuous aggregate production.

Strategic Timing for Purchase Negotiations

The heavy equipment market follows predictable seasonal patterns that astute buyers can leverage. Late Q3 often brings inventory clearance incentives as dealers make room for next year's models, while pre-owned equipment availability spikes after major infrastructure projects conclude. Crusher manufacturers typically revise their product lines every 36-42 months—targeting the months just before a new release can yield surprising discounts on current inventory.

Consider off-season purchasing for additional leverage. Northern hemisphere winter months see reduced construction activity, creating buyer-friendly conditions for stationary crushers. Mobile units, conversely, command premium pricing in spring when contractors mobilize for new projects. Some manufacturers offer early bird discounts for orders placed during trade show seasons, capitalizing on the industry's collective attention.

Configuration Optimization Over Raw Power

A 200 TPH rating alone doesn't define a crusher's true capability. The throughput-to-power ratio often reveals more about real-world value. For limestone applications, a well-configured jaw crusher mobile with 132-160kW motors frequently outperforms an overbuilt 250kW unit when paired with proper feeder and screening systems. Focus on application-specific engineering rather than blanket specifications.

Key cost-saving configurations include:

Modular wear assemblies that reduce downtime during part replacements

Hybrid power options for sites with unreliable grid connections

Pre-engineered foundation packages that eliminate custom concrete work

Multi-groove sheaves allowing speed adjustments without rotor changes

Crushing Plant for Processing Quartz Material

The Hidden Value in Aftermarket Support

The true cost of ownership emerges in the crusher's third year of operation when wear part consumption patterns become apparent. Manufacturers offering consumable part guarantees or tonnage-based pricing for liners and blow bars often provide better long-term value despite slightly higher initial quotes. Evaluate service networks with the same scrutiny as equipment specs—a local dealer with 24/7 parts availability trumps distant cost savings when breakdowns occur.

Smart buyers create maintenance cost projections comparing:

Expected liner life in specific material conditions

Onsite service call response times

Tooling requirements for routine adjustments

Availability of rebuild kits for major components

Financing packages deserve equal attention. Some manufacturers offer production-based payment plans that align machine costs with actual tonnage output, effectively making the crusher pay for itself during peak seasons. Others provide trade-in guarantees that establish future value thresholds, protecting your investment against market fluctuations.

The art of securing an optimally priced 200 TPH crusher lies in viewing the purchase as an integrated system rather than isolated equipment. When operational efficiency, maintenance costs, and resale value factor into the decision, the apparent "best 200 tph stone crusher price" often shifts dramatically. Those who take this holistic approach frequently discover that mid-range priced units with superior engineering and support packages deliver the most crushing value per dollar over a five-year horizon.

So Bluesky is about to require people to verify their age, which means sharing their real identity. I’ve no problem with people knowing my identity but then I’m not trying to hide from abusers. Or explore my gender. Or be a whistleblower. Or protest without getting arrested. Or or or… there are so many reasons people need anonymity.

Despite being myself online I am not keen to show Bluesky my scanned face or my bank card. So I guess I won’t be sticking around there.

I gave my advice before I left, which was “Switch to Mastodon, nobody there cares who you are, as long as you’re funny.”

Tokyo says it is standing firm on trade after Trump announced a 25% tariff on all Japanese imports, with Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba vowing to do what was best for his country rather than yield to pressure from Washington.

According to Toshimitsu Shigemura, a political science professor at Waseda University, Ishiba has been slow to realise that Japan’s “special relationship” with the US is no longer intact.

No, Carney has also brought Canada closer to the EU through the defence industry, hosted the G7, participated in the annual NATO meeting, launched a reform of the civil service, etc, within a few months of the election.

The man likely has a plan for moving Canada forward in a good way.

Really, most of what I see in your posts is venom from someone who is biased against Carney. Are you perhaps a Conservative?

in reply to ItsDoctorNotMrs

@northernlights @firstprimate the Not sure why you think bringing Canada closer to EU is a genius move given that EU is imploding economically as we speak.

The plan this carnie has is to gut social services to fund the military, while dimwits like you carry water for him.

Meanwhile, if you looked through my posts and you think I'm a conservative then you're dumber than a bag of bricks. I guess that's a prerequisite for being a neolib though.

Never heard a single word from Lieberman to follow international law, and to execute the #ICC arrest warrants.
