If someone came in as a child then it's true, and thus there is a discretion. Adults have history in their home country which does not disappear in 10 years or any period of time.

When people are talking about seed oils they rarely mean olive oil, usually it's "canola oil" (considering what "canola" stands for it's insulting not just to one's digestive system but intellect too).

A consulate overseas is more equipped to vet someone from the country where it is located than a USCIS office in New Hampshire. E.g. it has people able to read the documents in the local language and access to the officials who can validate

Maneuverability of a bike suffers from the same traction issue. At the speed when you can't plant your foot to pivot around bikes need to go much slower than cars in the same corners to not skid out. Check out descends on any road race

You could just get on a bike and test for yourself your theory. People who ride bikes tell you they are not good at stopping quickly, perhaps you should ask yourself how you became so knowledgeable without riding?

I don't know what "total transport efficiency" is or how is it measured, I just noticed you mentioned 70% of energy wasted by ICE as if humans waste less than that. As for more efficient than anything else in terms of MPG, yo

You obviously have not rode a bike for a long while if ever.

>Bicycles both stop much more quickly than cars They really don't. Even if you slam brakes and OTB on a bike you will still fly further ahead than a car doing double your speed will travel after applying brakes normally. This is th

Where did you get this? Humans, like all mammals, are not very efficient at converting chemical energy into mechanical work, definitely less efficient than ICE at 30% COP (aerobic process gives about 20-25% COP and anaerobic is horrible 5-1

It is not an issue for me, but it's beside the point of the "right to privacy in public". If you want to argue that the law enforcement should not be able to collect public data you need something other than this imaginary ri

"The right to privacy" while being in public is entirely the hallucination of LLMs who drive redditors. "Public" is an antonym to "private" in any thesaurus. "Privacy in public" is an oxymoron.

It works to the point that people used to put up fake cameras when the real surveillance was expensive (CCTV cameras with multichannel VCR type of setup). Also, I am not sure you are aware, but criminals are very constrained during prison t

In US not only parties themselves don't vote but the people don't elect parties either. For example, we just had the most money spent in history on a primary (this is an election among multiple candidates in the same party), where

It indeed makes no sense, do you have parties voting in Europe? In the US we have representatives each casting their own vote.

Do you mean that 39 pounds are not money or that checking the ECU status requires 39 pounds in resources so the shop breaks even on that?

Neither of two articles is about THC. The blog article is analyzing a NYC article that attacks nicotine vapes (and using the case of THC vapes related deaths in 2019 as one of the arguments against nicotine vapes).

That would suck, because even the same company might have 2 or more different battery platforms. I, for one, have Milwaukee tools from both M12 and M18 platforms. They are for different applications and I specifically bought some M12 tools

There was an article [1] from the same site about backpacks here couple of weeks ago, with better articulated position by the author: he is mad about market segmentation and believes there should not be different grades of products from the

Yeah, you will fill the potholes to the limit of your abilities and the society provides for your needs. This had been tried many times and does not work because the balance of abilities and needs comes out unbounded: even if your abilities

Writing a C++ parser is much harder than a C parser to the point there had been just 3 parsers used among all C++ compilers for quite a while. So you'd need to use some library for parsing. So now you are looking into the library'

I do. I am, again, not sure what does this have to do with the topic. I now suspect you are trying to derail in an attempt to hide your ignorance of the state of Moscow in 1988. There is no need to degrade the forum for that. Just be carefu

I am not sure what is "the Russian party elite". Regardless, how is this related to what people would see walking the streets in Moscow? (lines to the stores, people selling their belongings or random shit they have got in lieu of

I am sure you have not walked the streets of Moscow in 1988. As someone who had, I can assure you, it was not very pretty.

>You risk imprisonment, getting beaten by the police, going to prison for quite some time. That's very true, especially if the revolution succeeds. Only few OG Bolsheviks survived purges by their own comrades, for example.

If this had been true then USSR would have been crime free.

I lived in West LA and Santa Monica. And, as your clip shows, drivers will blow stop signs regardless if there is a bicycle or not. Imagine you tried to enter that intersection from the cross street on a bike without stopping, obscured by t

We'd likely have 3Dfx keeping its technology and developing it, or Rendition, S3, 3DLabs or whatever taking its place instead.

I've seen people blowing stops with zero bikes stopped at the intersection, people blow stops regardless if there is a bike present and its state of motion. With bikes not being able to break as fast as cars and not having side airbags
