Privatization of public services, the dystopian scifi future I've always dreamed of is becoming a reality. I am really glad that these spaces are being created though. A land owner has the option to do what they wish with their land an

If you have digestion issues you should do an elimination diet. It's nice to identify the cause(s) so you can avoid it in the future. I've given up a lot of foods (that made me feel horrible) and generally eat 1 meal around 11:30a

I think they minced the argument a bit bringing up the 1%. I didn't grow up in the 1% but I absolutely have a support system if anything in my life were to ever arise.

I was hoping there would be some information in here about what cell phones leak that a third party could pick up on. For example, tracking the mac address in beacon packets, or the cell frequency equivalent of that. Of course if you can ho

Studies have shown that increasing road capacity just causes more drivers to join the party to meet the supply. [1] Multilevel roads would be sick though. I'm hoping as vehicles become more autonomous they'll be able to move more

If most are screen based, you could just dynamically generate them and have them expire after N minutes. If someone wants a printed one make them jump through an application process for a long standing code.

Credit cards have rewards. Often some percentage back from the purchase. I have one that gives me 2% back on everything, which adds up. It makes sense to use it on every purchase and pay off the balance at the end of each month.

You shouldn't be using a VPN for anonymity. You should be using it to protect your traffic from ISP and to hide your personally associated IP from tracking. It moves your trust from your ISP to your hosting provider. If you need anonym

While I was there I asked how the trees got so old (3000 - 5000 years), if it was a special kind of tree or what. The ranger told us that trees don't die of age, if they have roots, bark, and leaves, they can keep on going. It was the
