It's a common misconception that the name Brandy comes from the drink. All evidence shows the origin is just a feminine form of Brandon.

I was plenty aware before. I was sharing my personal experiences. Someone who is a 37year old retail worker is free to share theirs as well. It appears like you are a bad actor and will dismiss anything that violates your 'reality&#x27

Apologies- I meant to write rent. Even if their numbers include 2 BR apts, my point still stands: a single person affording rent for a 2 BR apt is not a reasonable baseline for a living wage .

I'm aware not everyone is like me. And also not everyone is a "37-year-old retail worker". If you want to dismiss my comment, that's fine, but you should delete your own to avoid hypocrisy.

> a livable wage If someone can live in a 2/3 BR with roommates, that sounds pretty livable to me. I used to live in a house with 6 other people during college. I lived just fine.

Not in a house. Apartments, either a studio or splitting a 2/3 BR with roommates.

So perhaps they should split a 2/3 bedroom with roommates? If someone makes the absolute legal minimum, why does every expect them to live alone?

How do you fail to see that? More employees = More buildings, More work, More everything, etc. "I fail to see a casual relation between city size and carbon emissions. Why does New York City have higher emissions than McMullen, Alabama

i386 is a architecture. Really they should be calling it IA-32 which is the real name. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IA-32 i586 / i686 are later iterations of IA-32

The DoD is the world's largest employer. Unsurprisingly, they are the largest polluter. That doesn't make them hypocrites automatically.

Phones' PINs aren't connected to SIMs. I have to enter my PIN on reboot, even if I removed my SIM. Putting the SIM in a phone without a PIN results in nothing being required. Edit: Thanks for correcting me- I guess my SIM does not

His cell provider was the problem, and that is a paid service. They never should have given someone else a SIM, they are absolutely liable.

You know what's ridiculous? That we are giving a single cent for US-China collaborations. That $5M should be going to US researchers only.
