I guarantee that you clicked through some terms and conditions while buying that ticket, and it almost certainly said that phones weren't allowed. This is quite common at comedy shows because comedians develop their material over time.

The problem is that because he owns a jet, any passenger on it is at risk. That’s why his son was accosted by a crazy stalker. I find it absurd how many people are against automated license plate readers (even privately owned ones) but simu

If you look at the SEC filing it's 8% of profits. Though Tesla isn't trying to be particularly profitable right now. They've been spending tons of money on new factories so they can scale up production.

I agree with you. The legal system's job is to substitute for vigilantes. In this case the legal system doesn't provide certain services adequately, so the incentives favor vigilantism.

So the police didn't do any detective work, didn't help with the sting operation, and they didn't punish the thief. It seems like it'd be more fruitful to get a few of your friends and solve the problem yourself. It'

New Zealand is not a liberal democracy. It restricts freedom of information. New Zealand has banned over 1,300 books, and restricted access to another 728. The country also bans certain video games, and even the second Human Centipede film.

In most countries, it's not clear if smokers use more health care than average. They do get sick more, but they also die sooner and more quickly. But let's assume it's true, and that smokers do cause an undue burden on the he

Their metric of "problems per 100 vehicles" is not very well correlated with what we think of as vehicle quality. If your phone won't pair with car's bluetooth, that's considered just as much of a problem as the dri

I’m against NZ’s censorship because I decide what I get to read and hear, not the government. That such laws are rarely enforced is worse, not better. It means the authorities are engaging in favoritism and possibly going after their polit

So if the RNC had a hotline to Twitter that they used to censor stuff so their candidates could win more elections, you'd respond in the same manner? They're a private organization.

It's the opposite. If cops were invulnerable, they'd be far less likely to use lethal force. It's usually because they fear for their lives that they shoot.
