seems very very hard to get right. non primary residences (and all other property) are already taxed at higher rate in Texas w/ our homestead exemptions. It's hard to say how discouraging capital from entering the market will dec

A shopping center nearby uses flock to "ticket" and fine employees that park in residential streets (which creates bad relations with neighbors) instead of the designated remote parking. I guess part of the lease/employment a

by denimnerd42 2y ago
oh fair enough about the "user" vs possession. but my point was they could possible use this info to get a warrant to surveil you to catch you using it.

by denimnerd42 2y ago
sure they do. for example it's illegal to be in possession of marijuana and a firearm. the purchase of said MJ would be pretty good evidence that could lead to other warrants. That's the Hunter Biden gun charge.

tranq is an adulterant added to fentanyl. I don't think that is apples to apples here. The entire opiate ecosystem is honestly insane at the moment. The only street drug available is fentanyl and it's often mixed with the vet dr

Remember before self checkout when you had to wait in line while 1 or 2 people on duty checked you out? Hope we aren't going back to that.

I refuse to let them check my receipt other than Costco/Sam's where apparently you can lose your membership. Even there if the line is too long I walk out with my stuff. I'm not a thief and won't be treated like one.

Yeah the balance bike was a present at 1 year old to gauge interest as he grew. Definitely not necessary. We went all out with a Strider 12 pro though. He was able to walk with it very early on but the 2 front wheel scooter captured his at

did the balance bike thing. my kid just yesterday is riding a real bike at 3 years old. just told him to get going and put his feet on the pedals and he was riding his bike in less than 5 minutes.

and when you do get a security issue and you're using a 10 year old version the upgrade is going to be really really difficult vs incremental upgrades when they are available. or are you going to fork and assume responsibility for that

Unfortunately we already had to retire the iPhone 7 in our family. It was used as a byob device for corporate email to keep separate from actual personal device. No longer supported by those apps.

it's too bad FM radio is dying. my car trips are usually 10-20 minutes. that's not long enough to faff with my phone or carplay. I greatly prefer to have preset radio stations. luckily i'm in a big metro area but I've lo

1600*5 is 8000. we drive 12-15,000 miles per year on that vehicle. i drive 8000 per year on my other which is a tiny commuter car. we don't drive more miles than average.

Is it really aspirational if you do it? We take 4-5 1600 mile round trip road trips per year. It's 14hrs door to door and completable in 1 day. SUV makes it possible comfortably in a way a model 3 would not. 5 might be a lot but I thi

yeah I wonder how the costs compare at current day prices. they aren't going to run methanol if its more expensive.

by denimnerd42 3y ago
so is this methanol in harbor / emissions zones and fuel oil at sea? Does it run on diesel too?

There's the loss of liquidity for years and loss of opportunity cost. It's not victimless by far.
