If my Hobson choice was giving up my dog, out sleeping in a bed. I'm sleeping outside with my dog (unless it was freezing) asking (it rather forcing) someone to give up their dog is cruel. Cruel to both the person and the dog.

I would expect a neighborhood, even where everyone owns a semi to have significantly less wear than a thorough-faire that sees a lot of traffic. But even that didn't tell you everything. A good quality asphalt will out last a poor one

Did Google really ask questions like these it is it an urban myth? Supposedly Microsoft did (why is a manhole cover round) but that was supposedly stopped in the early 90s

I wouldn't go hiking in a "sneaker" as your typical sneaker didn't have the proper sole nor is it likely to be water resistant. I do wear hiking shoes, that are low ankle like a sneaker. But they have good sturdy non sli

It was a business thing. Business travelers works get there company to pay for the WiFi. So it was expensive. And it wasn't a US thing. I ran into the same issue in Europe.

Isn't it time to disband the TSA? So the security theater? "... no more intrusive or intensive than necessary..." I would say waiting on lines for hours, even being required to show up hours before is more intrusive than nec

You can buy water in the us airports, or bring an empty bottle and fill it. And besides they HAND you a cup of water on the plane if you ask. Had nothing to do with making a "mess" not did it have anything to do with forcing you t

Seriously? We got "credible information?" Did we? I've never been asked to boot my laptop. One been asked to turn on other things. Never a laptop. And it isn't like you could design a laptop to work with a bomb in it. Or

If the first chapter it first ten minutes are bad, then yeah, you should review it. Especially if, as you say, the first chapter should be like the rest of the book... And the first chapter is bad, then how do you think the rest of the book

In a town that is very forward out, almost any form of public transportation is worse than cars. And while I agree that public transportation helps. My current turn has horrible transportation abs more freeways and it is far easier to get

I lived in a place for most of my life that refused to build freeways "because they didn't want to become like LA" meanwhile more people moved there, traffic got worse. Going "across town" about 15 miles was a burde

It is illegal in most places to park a car on the sidewalk. I don't know of anyone, at least the big chains, that will serve a pedestrian in a drive thru. If you live in a more walkable part of town there is usually an all night diner.

But why? You even asked at the very beginning "I shouldn't accept just anything, right?" But why not? Like what is going to happen if someone uses a "non emoji?" Nothing. Nothing will happen. Well now you will tell

But... They are that good. The David was the one for me. First time I waited in line for well over an hour. That was two decades ago. And it is still one of the best works of art I've seen. Made it back once more. Last time the line wa

Except that "anti-racist" is just another term for "racist." This is the whole problem with Kendi's argument. He also contends that if there is a disparity in outcomes it MUST be sure to racism. Except he never show

America started to do this to try to collect taxes on small transactions. Not to prevent money laundering.

by chrismcb 3y ago
I've never seen anyone do this. But, unless the small business is committing fraud, they are then eating the tax. I don't a small business is going to willing pay 10% (or whatever the tax is)

But the problem isn't that they are sharing the data with anti abortion states. The problem is that they are sharing data. Why distract from the issue by throwing in a non issue, a hypothetical that won't be an issue? Bring up the

It is when it is a made up bogeyman. I would love to see how a state will prosecute someone for doing something legal in another state. It isn't going to happen. So no reason for this paper to bring it up. The real issue is sharing thi

Law enforcement agencies shouldn't be sharing licence part reader info with ANYONE, at least without a warrant. For murder or not. Now it sounds like they are sharing all the data for everyone, which is different than sharing the data

I don't know why you need to clarify that you are a taxpayer. But I would argue that in person work creates more waste. Between commuting and real estate. It might be easier for a remote worker to not work, but it should be easy for a
