Lot of nonsense. Seats of government necessarily become cities. You don’t create a new city to keep power away from cities. State governments tended to be put in central locations for the convenience of all urban and rural dwellers, and awa

No. Reasonable suspicion involves observed behaviors of an individual. Context about the area the individual is observed in could be supporting information, but not the entire justification for a stop.

You want one guy writing a blog to be an expert on dating worldwide? I don’t like rampant US-centrism either, but at some point just write your own article on dating in Canada eh? I’m guessing the author wasn’t around for the glory days of

Truly one of the more despicable examples of enshitification. OkCupid was amazing for those who made full use of its “here’s who I am and here’s who I want” question matching system. Removing those features and turning it into another swipi

There are already royalty free drum samples for days, and infinite possibilities of drum synthesis. No producer is hurting for snare samples. Why would I pay money for something I already have. Tweaking drum sounds until they sound good is

In a moderate climate you should have no need for resistive heat. Why isn’t running the heat pump alone enough?

Came to say this. As a senior you can help foster an environment of “no stupid questions.” On the other hand, seniors who think they know it all are dangerous. Bad decisions come with bigger impact at that level.

What happened in 2007 was the great recession. Most of the graphs look more like “what happened in 2020.” This is the dumbest thing I’ve seen someone register a vanity domain for.

It does not say “the basis.” It is concerning you don’t understand the discrepancy there. You are welcome to your opinion about what is key, but reading comprehension does not seem to be your strong suit.

It sounds like you’re reading too much into it. It doesn’t say root cause, or drug target. It doesn’t say reverse or cure. It quite specifically doesn’t say “ the basis”. The word basis doesn’t have to refer to one root cause. It could be

I definitely downloaded pornography in the 90’s with a “Thunderscan” watermark on the corner. Was that a feature of the software? Or did the person scanning add it to brag about their rig, I wonder.

That really is the dream, isn’t it. To find work that is interesting, impactful, that you are uniquely qualified to do, and to be compensated handsomely for it. It was probably easier to come by in 1987. Nowadays if you have a unique idea i
