I was in London recently, and I noticed that there weren't too many vehicles, and even though roads had only one or two lanes per direction, there wasn't any traffic in the city center. I asked some locals why that was, and they s

$3k is a bit much for me to feel comfortable spending at a store well known for selling Chinese knockoffs. Is there a way for a layman to test that the stone is indeed a diamond, and not something like lab made cubic zirconia?

Either that, or simply built more (or in NY case, higher) apartments. There is obviously a demand for both short term rentals and for long term rentals. Rather than building enough housing, NY decides to ban one and give it to the other. Th

It's a power game. Presumably less Americans visit places that require visas since there are enough places that don't. So Americans may not want to go to Europe as much. Currently plenty of European tourists go to America, so mayb

One thing that I remember learning was about one of the Mexican native tribes (I think Aztecs). After their entire army was defeated by a few hundred Spaniards, the general was annoyed that the natives fought, so they enslaved everyone and

The problem with many trains is that you have to book a specific time (like with airplanes) or else the price rises significantly (like with planes). The price is almost more than air flight. And in the US, passenger trains have to wait for

Presumably there is no way he will pay the full amount. So what can he do? I guess he'll have all of his assets emptied and then he will only work in places that will pay him in cash. I know that fathers who don't pay child suppor

I might be missing something, but what was wrong with the game bridge? Why did the leader of the nation hate it?

Nope, in Texas it is also illegal to murder a baby. In fact, murdering a baby is more illegal than killing a fetus.

The owner's house is outside of Orlando, in a gated community. When I go traveling, I want to be close to where there are things to do. If you are willing to spend so much to go to Disney world, I would assume you also are willing to s

I don't know if it's just me, but Airbnb recently stopped working for me on chrome. A partial website would load, with the basic images of a property, but I was never able to load more. I later discovered that Firefox works, so I

While this does look like a biased one sided post, a year passed and I couldn't find any response from SUSE. So I'm guessing that there is a lot of truth behind this. Although I'm not quite convinced that this is antisemitism

USB C was designed in 2014. How did you have it on your Samsung device in 2010?

The correct orientation perpendicularly to the edge of the phone. No one gets exactly 90 deg. The more you are off, the more likely you are to break or wear down something. That something that breaks is in the phone, not in the cable.

it's a document that needs to be prepared ahead of time, costs money, and can be denied. what is your definition of a visa if not this?

How else could it have been done? If the knesset passed a law saying that in 1 year the reasonability clause would be removed, would you be perfectly okay with that?

Using a bad tool for a good cause is still bad. Let's say that the Knesset wants to lower the SC salary, but the SC thinks that that salary is "unreasonably" low for the lifestyle that they deserve. Then they can simply cance

I've been following the situation in Israel, and I don't understand why the reasonability clause is something good to have in the first place. If a law is being passed, the SC could overrule it by simply saying that it is unreason
