Marketplace always switches back to non local pickup when you search for something new. So annoying. We get you make no money from p2p local selling but they should just accept that and not make the users experience worse.

I saw stories on the google offer a few years ago. They had/have failed again and again at building their own social app so understandable they want to buy something. But Snap does not worth it due to a ton of NSFW-ish content. Does go

The problem here also seem to be Israel's border officials treatment of her. US citizens do NOT need a visa to enter Israel. While border officials can deny still anyone entrance, there was no pressing reason to send her back. There ar

This title is so misleading, "to pay" and "told to pay" are not remotely the same. There is no chance Alex Jones will pay this amount. Actual headline is: Alex Jones told to pay $965m damages to Sandy Hook victims'

Respectfully you are wrong. Maybe you just live in the wrong place. Dating apps can't solve the ratio problem. When you live in the Bay Area/Seattle area/Bangalore etc that is so overwhelmingly tech then there are simply more

He could be but even rich people kill projects. Just seeing if there is another explanation other than Sean Parker funding with his own money.

No more missed connections. Group chats for festival, artwalk, or hitting the bars on a Friday night. People who are in very close proximity should be able to communicate near seamlessly. Yet 15 years after the release of the iphone there i

Online dating also enables men to say hi to women you may never have been able to if you just waited on organic situations. Some men are just not great at initiating conversation. In some areas it is going to be more difficult and those are

I wonder if this is somewhat misleading. The people ordering the books are generally skewed in one way politically. So there are objections to those books by some on "the other side". If the roles were reversed, the people orderi

yes, this is what I meant. A no contest type of plea. He can say he is pleading guilty because he has spent 20+ years in prison and just wants to be/stay out, not that he is guilty. State can say he is guilty but he has spent 20+ years

There is a third possibility, he pleads guilty to time served. He was a minor when the murder happened. He pleads, gets 25 years, with time served + good behavior, he never actually goes back to prison.

It is interesting to watch, though 90% of the population would be really confused about what is going on. A combination of numbers on a screen and pandas pictures.

Here are my straight forward thoughts 1. don't like the name. I don't know how to say it. You dont have to have a great name, but could do better. MySpot, Park Now, etc. Make it more obvious. Can change name later if going to expa

Its unfortunate you are getting down voted. Yours is a legitimate comment, people are free to disagree but down voting is for comments that are flame bait garbage, not just because one disagrees.

It is hassle for women, more so for poor women who might not have money laying around for flights and hotels. It is also the signal it sends about who thinks you should have no choice. Republicans were probably on their way to taking the ho

He has to move a bit but not flat out run all time. When the defense comes to try and tackle him he will try to avoid them a bit but he isn't going to out run them. A few other quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes, Kyler Murry, Josh Allen, mi

Nextdoor went public last year via a SPAC. Can guess how that went. Has lost more than half its value. Now valued at 1.1 billion. A rounding error for Meta. Might be better for it to be around for Meta for anti-trust reasons
