Only job of my life I miss is the one where I had at-will access to an espresso machine and deli slicer. Thinly sliced London Broil Roast Beef as thin as the slicer will allow fresh off the slicer just can’t be beat.

You’re not wrong there but neither am I. If it helps, you’re not the government and your children’s rights do not impugn your rights, responsibilities and authority as a parent.

You’ve got the wrong amendment there, little buddy.

by SllX 2y ago
Kids do have the same First Amendment protections you or I do. What they don’t have is much political or financial power to protect it, so it only really gets asserted when parents assert it for them, and it does get balanced against instit

They can be, but based off the description of events higher up the thread, I could see the Feds getting involved if this is accurate.

People keep saying that in this thread, but Boar’s Head does taste better than the crap that was more common before it. I’ve since found better deli meats, but even if I never eat another Boar’s Head product again, I’ll never eat Oscar Meye

Usually local government-owned. That shouldn’t be a factor with the Feds.

> Are you referring to Taiwan as independent and sovereign? You’re goddamned right I am and I will defer to no commies or their stooges on this subject. As of this moment in time, Taiwan is independent as the Republic of China.

I am aware of the historical context, but right now the ROC isn’t the major problematic entity proactively asserting claims in the South China Sea and building up its Navy with an eye towards enforcing them against independent and sovereign

South China Sea is just a name, not a cause for maritime irredentism, and that Sea also borders most countries in Southeast Asia, countries which consider themselves independent sovereign nations. So it’s international waters which an enorm

Courts are a good place to challenge the law only if there is a higher law that contradicts them. If we’re talking Federal law, then the step up from there is the constitutionality of the law, which is not an easy case to make. Usually what

This isn’t about swinging and missing. This was a project in direct contravention of the copyright laws and agreements they have within the very jurisdiction they operate. It’s like if they saw the ball coming, and in that moment decided ba

In a controlled manner in line with existing laws, yes. The law is still the law, even though the law may not be what you or I would like it to be.

The transfer information is at least in line with why there’s a voice over system in the first place: giving useful actionable information to the blind in line with ADA requirements. But it does not need to be in four languages, nor should

Both are at the cost of a generally more tranquil and quiet environment. I would take the most boring, crack-filled and grayest concrete wall over someone else’s messaging whether it is paid for or the agency’s own propaganda.

> The announcements are just there to sell more noise cancelling headphones in the on-station shops. This is a good—albeit shameless—business model. They could probably do the same thing in San Francisco’s MUNI stations.

Self-policing is nice but it is nicely complemented by actual police work. Cities should be aggressively policing fare evaders and maybe that means putting actual police in front and inside the fare areas to catch fare evaders, exclude peop

Obviously not. Your strawman aside, I’m also not defending Nassau County ordinances either; just highlighting the context that was getting overlooked in the prior comments to this post.

Don't worry, there's arguments against every system of health care, including the American health care and insurance industry. Doesn't mean there aren't productive reforms that can be done.

I am aware of how it works, that's why I front-loaded the part about the brassiere being MIA at the moment. I just don't care, and I don't take it outside except on the airplane. Next flight I have, I'll probably dig out

Only when you pull them out of the case. Otherwise they just stay asleep. When I replaced my Powerbeats Pro (same fundamental tech as any AirPods) with AirPods Pro, I went about a year or so without touching the Powerbeats Pro and they just

Could be either/or. I long ago lost the brassiere that came with my AirPods Max (not really lost, I just can’t be arsed to dig it out of where I think it is) and they’ll drain themselves fairly quickly just trying to throw out stray co

They’ve been in the BEV market for a bit. Not long after the first Tesla Model S was released, BMW released the i3. That one’s since been discontinued but they have at least 8 other BMW i models on the market.

A good litmus test is if you are questioning whether a law is constitutional, you shouldn’t vote in favor of it. That’s upholding your oath. Getting it wrong isn’t breaking your oath, not caring whether it breaks your oath and putting pedal
