So will Holmes go to prison? A green card holder in Texas was just sentenced to eight years in prison for voting in a US election. Surely Holmes will go away much longer right?

The biggest part of that economic war would be letting everyone know the grid has been compromised, not the actual outage, there's no advantage to keeping it secret.

Foam is more for the convenience of shipping compressed, they are not going to be the highest quality mattress. Saatva is pretty good I think for the price. No idea about the expensive ones. You need to figure out whether you prefer a soft

Well, now's the time to leave equities or go active. I've never heard of anyone getting rich by following the herd.

Isn't this already a well established space? Not saying you can't compete in it, but you shouldn't worry about viability. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2017-04-04/these-hac...

Tax breaks simply should not exist on any level. I can't think of something more absurd than picking people to give tax breaks to.

PhD should be able to get points for independent or state nominated migration though which is a far better system than 457.

I would recommend you sublease your place (or not) and take a month or two break. That's a long time to travel. You could go sit on a Greek island and contemplate a lot while the sun restores you. Then you can decide whether you really

You're confusing it with citizenship based taxation which is a different infuriating issue. Most countries tax your global income when you're a resident.

I love how these comments always boil down to salary and cost of living arguments. People, (mostly Americans), you're doing it wrong. What kind of fool moves to a remote island in the middle of nowhere and then expects to somehow still

So they strike a random target in retaliation for testing a nuke? What does that accomplish? Now Kim can just test another nuke. Then what do we do? We nuke NK?

Drunk driving has always been an issue in most of America. It's not taken seriously. In Houston there was regularly horrific DUI deaths and people wouldn't bat an eyelash (several times there were cars driven by drunks onto the fr

The worst part is the freeways and they are the worst way to see the city. I always find myself wishing they'd dismantle most of them and force the city to evolve without them.

I didn't buy these appliances (rental), my last apartment had basic analog appliances. They're so much better. I really do not need digital inputs on my appliances. I definitely do not need WiFi or smartphone control!

Oh don't worry, I tried to use my Club Pass which united mails you as a benefit for paying for their stupid credit card. They said no, we have to save space for actual club members. And this is the least bad "United screws me"

I have no interest in these smart home devices and I'm not a Luddite. These things just complicate life. Just like my fancy new dishwasher which thinks it's a good idea to beep constantly once my dishes finish washing at 1am.

You forgot climate control too. Office buildings always seem to have their HVAC poorly calibrated and controlled by some mysterious ghost. There are so many reasons... I think you either get it, or you don't.

Default is not an option for the US. Most economic growth the last decade has been from deficit spending. State and local pensions are headed to catastrophic ends soon, and will need bailouts with federal dollars. Losing deficit spending wo
