I got an HDMI cable and an audio cable that were Amazon's brand. They have both since broken. It may not have been fake but it was bad quality.

It's not coming out of the public purse. Those are not the public's funds to begin with. The law was democratically decided to allow charitable donations.

As others have said, performance is painful. I've also had problems where emails would just not display after clicking on them. It would spin and say 'loading'. I like the look of it but speed is part of a design and needs to

It also happened over a hundred years ago. We are now in the 'modern era' and international trade is a much bigger part of any economy. The World Bank statistics only go back to 1960, but since that time the % of economy that is t

Also, the poster has not applied the law. He is saying that because the labor supply in the US is low, wages should be up. However, the US can outsource functions, which means that the labor supply is bigger than the US.

Other things to keep in mind: - Labor market is bigger than a single country - Other costs may affect wages (if profits are squeezed, increased competition, rising costs of goods or benefits, etc) - Government policies impact wages (law of

They have a lot of competitors that have products as good or better. Competition should squeeze their profits considerably.

People use AirBnB not just for the price. I've used it before to get a more authentic experience when traveling. The places generally vary a lot more in capacity (IE not just 2-4 per room). For a family with smaller children, renting o

Any CA could be a honeypot. I would say LE is less likely because so much of what they do is in the open.

What they mean by that comment is that it doesn't have users in the sense that mysql, SQL Server, etc have. https://www.sqlite.org/whentouse.html The documentations says that it works well for websites. For client ser

Did you read my comment? I mentioned that community colleges already provide additional, cheap, education that fulfill that additional education.

Already done. Education is considered a public good. That is why K-12 education is paid for in the US. As far as a higher degree, the landscapers working across the street probably would not benefit from getting a degree and I do not see ho

In the UK, there are public byways and footpaths, which allow a specific right of way through private land. Often times it is a path through a farmer's field or such. The US could establish similar rules.

Why is it a problem that those people are buying more land? If anything, a single owner that doesn't need the land for economic purposes can protect it much better than a bunch of individual people. My point is that people assume autom

I thought part of the problem was the lack of a magnetic field? I'm not sure if that has anything to do with keeping an atmosphere or just the ability to survive on the surface with radiation protection though...

I used Zotero while going through University and it seemed revolutionary at the time. There wasn't really anything else that could properly import the citation info from journals, web sites, etc so easily. Most of them you would have t

This is very difficult to address. I think people (in the office) need to buy in and use chat or email as communication mode number one. Either that or someone needs to come out with some better tele-presence for remote teams to interact wi

They also make bikes with wide tires now that perform admirably in snow. With the right gear, it's not too bad unless you are trying to ride through a foot of snow.

Most european cities are not high rises but they seem to find ways to pack more people in. Amsterdam, for example, has loads of 5 story buildings. There is a big difference between a 2 story single family home and a 4 story duplex or apartm
