Get yourself a car with adaptive cruise control. I've found not needing to manage my speed constantly really helps deal with these types of driving scenarios. Of course, it also helps if you don't really have a timeline to meet fo

At that point the title is clean, so I would expect the property to sell much closer to the market rate minus any repairs needed to make it livable. Not really a deal to be had.

I see an argument for the addition of the fence as "improving" the property and therefore showing that it has not been abandoned. Aside from the obvious goal of keeping out trespassers, I'd be willing to bet the fence was add

You have the causality wrong. The state and local police forces are necessary to enforce local laws because there are many things are are not illegal at the federal level. They simply aren't addressed at all. There also may be consis

Oxford English dictionary follows the trends of language rather than setting them definitionally. They offer the "extremely" definition because the word gets misused so often, not because of any original meaning. One can argue the

That seems to be the NPR way the past few years. Allow guests of all stripes on the air to say whatever nonsense the can dream up. And then move on to the next question with no follow-up or pushback. All in the name of "neutrality"

I know nothing of your product, so this isn't a shot against you personally, but there are plenty of products schools are paying for that provide little value and a handful of them that are providing negative value. You've reached

I have sent at least 8 Android phones to the landfill over the years. They either lost support and had no alternate path to a new OS or a catastrophic hardware failure that made them a paperweight. I'm on year 2.5 with iOS and all thre

Picking a user name is a forced choice. By your logic, nobody would ever want to join a social media platform that didn't automatically assign a user name.

The problem comes when insurance denies the claim for whatever reason. Now, the provider is going to try to bill you the $25,000. It's up to you to either get your insurance to cover the procedure properly or to negotiate it back down

Admittedly, I haven't looked in a few months but the last time I used that tool it gave me some outrageous range like $2.000-10,000. Not particularly useful.

Too deep in the chain to reply directly but I opened a 2009 Abyss a few months ago and it was still delicious. The label even tells you to wait about 18 months after bottling before even considering whether to drink it.

Worth noting the west coast states with larger Asian populations were largely "locked down" in 2020. Schools didn't reopen until 2021. 2020 didn't have as many opportunities for individual interactions that could lead to

This is the same reason I can't ever see microtransactions for news sites gaining traction. While I can't afford to subscribe to every news site I would like to, I also don't want to have to decide whether every news article

I don't think Mastodon has "promotion". If Alice posts once and Bob 20 times, you'll see Bob all over your feed and can easily miss Alice's post unless you seek it out. There is a retweet type feature (I forget the

18 years is by far the longest sentence handed down from Jan 6. Most convictions have resulted in probation. The Federal max sentence is rarely actually handed down. Typically, it’s closer to half the max with even that sentence shortened

But the second you mention some new issue that’s cropped up, it no longer coded as an annual checkup and you will be paying. The only way to guarantee a free annual checkup is to go in, say nothing about your state of health, let the dr tak
