Stop the spread, slow the spread, the idea was that by doing just 2 weeks of isolation, everything would be manageable. This has really not been achieved anywhere in the world anywhere else other than New Zealand, and at what cost? >I th

At this point, I really think they're going to try bring back mask mandates while blaming the unvaccinated for them. It's already back in LA, and I can't see them going away anytime soon. This is despite the fact that million

I believe that it was an Apple computer. Also, it didn't have a colored screen, it was completely green. Thanks for the link though, I may do some sleuthing.

I'm sure you have a source that shows that Bitcoin/crypto in general is dominated by things like money laundering and terrorist financing, right?

Why don't we just put the summer Olympics in Athens? There's already infrastructure there, and the Olympics originated in Greece.

Back in middle school (1998 - 2002), we learned about geology through this oil exploration game. It was pretty fun even though we had to play it on a 5" floppy using a computer from the 80's that somehow still worked. I wonder if

My curiosity is getting the better of me, why would you choose the Salton Sea as a vacation destination?

Perhaps the reason no other Olympic area has been profitable is because they're basically a one and done? Personally, I think Greece and Athens is the logical choice due to the history behind the Olympics.

It blows my mind that the CDC can issue rent eviction moratoriums, and that this is completely legal.

This is primarily because the US had decided that housing is going to be the primary driver of wealth for the vast majority of people.

When there's "blue collar overproduction" due to outsourcing and automation of manufacturing jobs, it's not a big deal because they can just learn to code, but when there's "elite overproduction" we need t

Florida actually does very well at turning out results after elections. This is mainly because of the 2000 election debacle that made the state a laughing stock (or more of one, depending on your view). Seriously, look how quickly they got

I feel this. If I got married tomorrow, I'm honestly not sure I could find a best man.

Star Citizen has proven one thing to me, and that is that dreamers (Chris Roberts) who are developing incredibly ambitious need to be held in check by good PMs who are willing to push back when necessary. This thing has been developed for s

>You don't have as much security concerns For now. I feel that it's only a matter of time before the TSA gets involved, and that train ride that was hyped up as being quicker than a plane ride will suddenly no longer be as quic

While I'm glad they mentioned the increasing price of cars, one thing that they didn't mention is the rise of electric cars. My car is 9 years old, and I'm looking for a replacement soon. However, I'm holding off for a f

Stuff like this is why I roll my eyes every time I hear that schools are underfunded and how we need to give them just a little more funding, and surely things will get better. If they're just going to pass students anyways, what'

On one hand, that's nice that there's another public holiday, but on the other hand this feels like such an empty gesture, almost like the political equivalent of putting a filter on your selfie.

If this is the case, it seems kind of easy (if not a tad invasive) to solve. You have the MLB watch over the balls in a secure area, and when the pitcher and catcher go out, you check their pockets to see if they have anything like Pelican

Has there been any culture shock for you? As someone who grew up in NJ, I'm always interested in hearing how other tri-state area people deal with moving from an urban to a rural environment.

Completely agree. It helped that I have a recurring meeting in Outlook that starts when I leave work, and goes for an hour. I find that this block prevents people from scheduling surprise last minute meetings, and keeps me from working long

I'm not sure that the area that's affected by this drought has a large amount of ranching activity. I'll just speak for Nevada, but the state is very unhospitable for ranching activities because it's pretty much a desert

As someone who works in tech for a decidedly not-tech company, I'm curious how this will affect me. I feel like my company has taken a wait and see approach, although they have been quite open in saying that 95% of what we do can be do

Honestly, Detroit had nowhere to go but up. The city was so poor that even a decade ago downtown was a hot mess where there was virtually nobody there after 6 PM.

At this point, I think the NRA exists only to act as a foil for gun control groups. I have donated to both of the groups you mentioned as I think that they're both lightyears ahead of the NRA when it comes to actually doing anything.

So basically I write a review, and then tell the IRS that I'm a beer journalist, and that in order to do my job I need to deduct my beer costs? Brilliant!

If you can tell me how to apply this to making beer, I will be forever in your debt.

Interesting how she talks about this being a big pressure in creative fields. I'm in the UX space, and it seems like people always like to talk about their side hustle, or getting a side hustle. This is especially true for connections
