Nationalize the ISPs and build out fiber to everywhere. You don't need to worry about profitability if you aren't trying to make a profit.

I suppose it depends on their individual immune systems. If they didn't live in close contact, they may not share the same immune system. One may have a weaker immune system than the other making it possible for the cancer to spread ea

Raising the age for tobacco is a good first step. Next is to raise prices on traditional tobacco products and incentivize smoking cessation products like gum and patches. Vapes can help with getting rid of the smoking part but it can be eve

“all-synthetic aerosol to replace tobacco smoke, if necessary … I know this sounds like a wild programme, but I’ll bet that the first company to produce a cigarette claiming a substantial reduction in tars and nicotine … will take the marke

Contribute the fine towards smoking cessation programs. A teenager doesn't need their money returned to them if they get caught buying tobacco products.

It looks like they also include "nutrients & vitamins" in with the process. You need nitrogen for protein so I wasn't really sure how they were making nitrogen from nothing.

You can buy third party compatible pods. It's pretty convenient compared to building coils, replacing pre-made coils, or even refilling a tank.

You should replace the smoke detector after 10 years anyway so buying the disposable ones is probably safer.

Android Auto bugs you every time you plug the phone into the car. I had a rental that had it and I was curious to try it since it seemed like something I may want in my next car. It was slow as fuck over bluetooth (a little faster over USB)

The test is a bit more involved than a normal driving test. A normal test just involves reading street signs and how to handle things like right of way, don't pass on the right, use your blinker, basic important topics. CDL tests ask q

My school transitioned to Canvas from Sakai, it was like night and day in usability. I used Blackboard in highschool so even Sakai offered a major increase in usability. Sakai and Canvas seem easy enough to setup that I can't imagine B

Right, you cut them in on the subscription fees. The theater gets more people willing to go to the movies and the distributor gets pretty much a guaranteed income every month. Figure out the average amount of money people spend on movies ev

Movie theater chains running the subscription on their own is much more viable. They are paying per showtime anyway so a full or empty theater doesn't make them any money but the concessions do. Paying for extras like comfy chairs or f

Coke pretty much costs nothing compared to the rest of the operating costs. This is why many McDs have the price of all the fountain drink sizes the same. I'm guessing only a minority of people would come in for the free drink and leav

I feel like destroyers are large enough that taking your eyes off the "road" for a moment to adjust controls is perfectly fine. Ships like that have radar systems to detect other boats. These things could probably pilot themselves

I love finding easter eggs in die layouts. Even if it's not an easter egg but just someone's name, it's always nice to see how people have chosen to essentially scratch their name into history.

I really like the rolls of hook and loop where you cut the tie to length. You can make massive bundles or just small ones and never waste it. Bonus is that they are reusable. I've used reusable zip-ties before, they are a massive pain

They should be using cable tie guns set to the right tension. They usually come with a sheet that tells you which tension setting to use based on cable tie model. If you are doing the same installs each time, it's a better idea to use

You would want something thick enough that the barbs don't punch through. Tinfoil would punch through easily and the barb would just keep going. You need something thick and conductive.

You still have to dissipate all of that energy. All a kevlar suit jacket is going to do is allow you to easily pull the bullet out of your chest. Getting shot while wearing a vest still causes immense bruising and can still break bones. Kev

Seems like they could be suggesting that Tasers are going to become the new saturday night special, a cheap tool to incapacitate someone. Conductive clothing is cheaper and I'm sure hurts a lot less than body armor stopping a bullet.

In many states in the US, there are no restrictions to buying, owning, and conceal carrying a Taser (the one that shoots barbs). Even felons can own them in most states. Compare that to a pistol that has all kinds of restrictions on ownersh

They can change their radar signature since the true signature isn't much of anything. They can mimic the signature of other planes and even move the signature making it seem like the spoofed aircraft is closer or further away than it
