You're completely wrong on safety. Driving is much much more dangerous than trains by orders of magnitude. I know what you're getting at when you write safety, but I want to be clear that this is not the same thing as safety.

Unfortunately, the gambling industry is going to have a much wealthier and more powerful lobby than any effort to displace it.

Thank goodness. I can’t leave my laptop for a second unattended because my cat loves nothing more than to dance on the keyboard. I’ve need something like this.

Well, when your stock is massively overpriced it's a smart time to buy stuff with it.

It’s a great way to regulate if you’re corrupt. When the rules are opaque and arbitrary, there’s a lot more room for corruption.

Different people need a different number of steps inbetween. I know for myself, I'll just end up disabling the battery saver mode.

Wait... how could that have helped? It's a toxic material under pressure so why would we want to vent it further?

Ha, I built the exact same thing, except using ClickUp for all the task management. Having agents on kanban is really a level-up in terms of what you can do and how you can organize.

I don't know about roofing, but for wall solar there is Solablock ( https://www.solablock.com/ ), which makes solar-embedded masonry. Much better thermal profile and cheaper overall installation costs.

Haven’t used Windows in a while, but I remember hating the seemingly completely random “restarting in 5 minutes for a system update.” Usually at the least-opportune time

Linux friction is “unpredictable” but windows friction isn’t, because you have a lot of windows experience and not much in Linux. I don’t think you’d feel the same after a few months of Linux.

I was shocked that none of my cards worked for lots of stuff in the Netherlands. They also have their own system.

I don't see how that changes my point at all. edit: to clarify for you, here's an example. Model A advocates for single-payer healthcare, while Model B prefers for the current US healthcare system. So on that one axis, A is more p

No reason to--no one will hit. You have much much much chance at guessing a random number that solves the next bitcoin block and mining the old fashioned way.

It's not that hard to get a temporary residence permit somewhere in the EU if you're well-employed. Every country has its own rules and some are more lax than others, but there are plenty of e.g. "tech worker" visas you

Most remote jobs don't require you to keep the exact same hours, but rather to have some overlap. So it can effectively only feel like ~3h timezone difference.

Then those parents can turn off their browser/client’s age protections. I think that’s actually a decent argument for the solution posed by this thread.

Yeah, the behaviors in this post are more anti-social than asocial. I don't think it's meant to be about people who are shy, introverted, asocial.

Which is also horrifying if you think about it for more than a second. "Want something to happen? Bet a lot of money that it won't" goes both ways. "Want to make money and have power over missile systems? Bet, and then m
