The fact that something like this is even considered against adults is just plain absurd. Law enforcement shouldn't be so adversarial at every step. Do you dare help the police, when you never know if they consider you friend or foe.

Besides cost, joy, the environment, home charging, another often overlooked benefit is: resilience to an oil crisis. Unlike the US, Europe doesn't have a shale gas industry. What if there is a conflict in the middle east, or worse. Sa

Yeah, it does seem like a tax hike. It's not like shoe manufacturing is moving to the US. Shoes will just be more expensive. (Until a deal is negotiated, which is probably what he is after)

Unless you aim for your blog grow a following. You really don't need to overthink anything! A picture and 3 sentences can be a blog post. You can talk about a hobby, a trip, a vacation or random thoughts. Sometimes people will find a h

Are regular printers that bad, if buy brother? I bought a B/W laser printer and have been generally impressed with the lack of BS that came a long with it. It did ask for toner once, so I bought something from a third-party.

If you're willing to put down 10-30k USD on solar and batteries, you can probably cut the cable. At least most of the year, depending on where you live. Yes, nuclear would be great, but the time to make that decision was 20 years ago.

Lots of government websites are extremely sketchy and redirect you to a sketchy payment gateway, often the payment gateway is on some weird domain. If I make a payment using my visa card, how is it that I'm not just redirected to visa.
