Yes, AFAIK the piles didn't go all the way down to solid bedrock and San Francisco is basically built on a garbage dump covered over from previous devastating earth quakes, basically. They were improperly installed and if they had been

Not if your goal is to censor a viewpoint. They are one in the same whether it's a viewpoint made in public or private - the main point of censorship is to not allow you to communicate certain thoughts. It amazes me that some posts her

Mine is the Minuteman II ICBM from the late 60's. My father launched one, as a test, but he didn't know it was a test at the time. They got orders, they launched. I have a beautiful large color photo of the one he launched coming

Naw, we shall label them as racist and xenophobic for even bringing it up, and we just can't have people labeled as racists running around spewing "facts," so out the ban hammer comes. And the world will cheer it on as they o

Very happy with Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus. It's just simply blazing fast if you're after M.2 NVMe PCIe4. I believe they're using micron memory. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/sabrent-rocket-4-plus-m...

Much like if you read a good book, as time goes on you will lose the details and only recall the main gist unless you reread the book occasionally. There is concrete work to do beyond just getting in the right state of mind. It sounds like

It's kind of like how the NSA has deals with other countries like the UK to allow spying on Americans to get around constitutional issues. Hey, we didn't do the spying! We're privacy focused. We just make billions by allowi

Same here. It's what I'm typing this on. The only thing I've done is replace the battery about a year ago. 7 years was a good run. Works 100% as well as the day I bought it and the last Apple product I've purchased. Took

I just look at where Tesla started, and where it is today. How they revolutionized electric cars during a time when the ICE industry was against them in order to protect the status quo. I wonder how many companies would be "all in&quot

As a fun exercise, try to get a house built in any metro area with a pop > 750k and see what you have to go through and how expensive and time consuming it is to jump through all of the hoops. You will find the answer to your question.

They don't. A case went to the Supreme Court and said Congress needed to make that decision, not an unelected CDC, but that they wouldn't rescind the current existing order...which then expired. Biden basically said as much, and t

All I ask and hope for is consistency in the law. We shouldn't use reasons like "it's a forming brain" to shoot it down in one drug context while ignoring it in another, totally legal drug context. Alcohol is a drug, per

I just ignore all downvotes that don't give some sort of rebuttal. I just assume I pissed someone off by stating fact they didn't like otherwise. In fact, I think that would be an excellent feature - you can't downvote withou

Vaporizing, or using edibles, or other concentrates, eliminates that as you aren't burning/combusting anything, which is where most of those harms come from. There are plenty of ways to ingest now without actually smoking it. You
