I completely get it, and it is not a problem that is limited to the US, either. My parents are landlords in Canada and getting rid of a clearly negligent, possibly criminal, tenant is very difficult, time consuming, and expensive. I can abs

Outdated evictions refer to evictions from the past that it is felt should be removed from certain reporting. This is difficult because, unlike with credit histories and bankruptcies, I am not aware of any sort of standard that requires the

I had thought of that too for a while but it seemed like idle power usage was higher in a device like that than in a dedicated router. Maybe I am being nitpicky about that particular aspect.

This more and more. Especially when we start to see school administrators and politicians advocating for less parental involvement, not only in the curriculum but with what should always be parental decision making.

Of course I would like the consequences of a mistake to be minimal, but I also don't think drivers of large vehicles should automatically be assumed at fault and penalized just because they like to drive a large vehicle. Even the GHSA

As it stands, this is the report that the article uses as it's primary source: https://www.ghsa.org/sites/default/files/2021-03/Ped%20Spotl... To start off with, 75% of pedestrian fatalities occur i

Because cars are not, in and of themselves, inherently deadly any more than a train or a boat or a plane are inherently deadly. The fatality component of a vehicle largely rests on operators and those who are around vehicles. If a pedestria

I struggle with the idea of adding more indicators and alarms to a vehicle because drivers are already swamped with a large amount of stimuli when driving. I'm not sure that adding more and possibly taking away control of a vehicle is

Honestly, this feels a little like blaming the tool rather than putting the responsibility where it belongs, which is with the driver AND the pedestrian. Driver's need to be attentive, of course, but so does a pedestrian. We put an inc

The problem being is we are not technically purchasing a copy of the software. We are purchasing a license to use the software as the creator intended. I completely agree that this is asinine and needs to change, but this is the framework i

The process of buying a house is going to be relatively similar regardless of your age. It starts by find a property that you like. You can do this in a variety of ways including using a realtor, looking through MLS listings on your own and

They also just cut out all the homeschoolers in the country who might want to use their products as UniDays doesn't allow for homeschoolers to use their system.

Can we, just for a minute, acknowledge how ridiculous this is? Blaming an app for teenage actions? Groups of teenagers have formed a clique over the color of their messages. Oh well. If it wasn't message bubble color it's going to

My employer sponsors some of mine as well, but even if they weren't my premiums are still around half of what they listed in the article ($12.5k I think is listed in the article if I read it right). This is with coverage that has a min

Do you actually pay that much a year in insurance premiums? I don't live in CA, but I sure don't and my health coverage is pretty good. Keep in mind, this is also just the insurance premium, there's no talk of what co-pays or

The author seems to be operating upon the assumption that the meat processors are the bottleneck but provides no support for that assumption. I would like some more information. To my mind, if meat processors are the source of a bottleneck

That would seem reasonable, except we are not talking about opportunity cost. We are talking about actual financial burden comparison. I can educate both my children to a higher standard in a far more personalized education form for less th

1) I would be interested to see your source that says that enough funding gets sent to private schools to impact public school's ability to try and achieve the goals they are supposed to achieve. 2) If amount of money spent were actual

This is likely an opinion that will get downvoted and flagged, but I fail to see a negative in having a parent stay home to directly raise their children. I am an immigrant to the US, been married for 11 years, have two kids, and in that en

I realize that is the CCN title, but let's be clear; They're not hiring robots, they're ordering and installing them. Semantics? Maybe, but clearly I'm convinced that it is something worth pointing out.

That's because de-platforming doesn't actually fix anything. Instead of refuting the idea on its merits and allowing there to be a logical destruction of extremist views, de-platforming just turns people into "martyrs" f

I would seriously recommend getting it serviced. I have 3 MacBooks in my house right now and none of them do that.

Have you stuck a volt-meter to your laptop to see if it is actually running a current through the body of the laptop? If it is, might be worth having the laptop serviced.

And there was no other major event that happened? We don't know if this is home insurance or auto insurance or health insurance or even something like marine vessel insurance. You didn't file a claim at all? Didn't get in an

I don't think this is specific to Binance. The SEC and Treasury are really looking at cracking down on crypto-reporting across the board. It's very unfortunate because, I agree, crypto's strongest appeals were in it's de
