This seems like the same argument people had with calculators. We’ve had calculators, spreadsheets, cash registers for half a century now so why do the still teach math?

SpaceX has done some great things to revolutionize space access, and already launches to orbit 80% by mass of all the worlds space “stuff”
Now they’re getting close with StarShip/Superheavy, designed to carry 10+ times that every year. It will become much cheaper than anything before it, partly based on that economy of scale.
But where’s the market for that scale? How the heck are they launching 800+% of the world’s satellites every year? Business as usual will not support that. SpaceX needs to create new markets to drive that business, perhaps mars colonies or datacenters in space. Think of it as them wanting to create new businesses to justify their new product
As far as we know, none of the children raped or molested by Trump have committed suicide
Is no one going to point out that it establishes requirements for birth certificates? If a state doesn’t already comply with all of those, are we going to have to be reborn?
No. Slowing may make the bump feel worse to you )unless you do it right) while still being less strain on your suspension
As a white guy, I’m aware that there have been times where I’m just accepted at face value when other people would have required ID. Why would voting be any different? It’s not the ID itself necessarily, but who is asked for it and who likely has it in order
As an older guy I’ve also had occasion to laugh at zero tolerance ID mandates for alcohol. At one point I went out for drinks with co-workers of a variety of ages. I somehow forgot my ID so they refused service despite me obviously being well over the age requirement. Instead of getting frustrated, I was amused at getting a coworker less than half my age to buy my beer. Sometimes you just need to laugh at the ridiculousness. But it would not have been funny if something like this kept me from voting
That was the point elsewhere here that it would hurt republicans more.
- republicans tend to be conservative, older, so are more likely for the woman to have changed her name
- democrats tend to be more liberal or more progressive or more educated, all of which are more likely for the woman to keep her name when getting married.
In the US, it was a tradition. If it was a law at some point I never heard about it so probably way back.
There were always exceptions to that tradition and they are becoming common. Of the same sec marriages I know, they each kept their name.
Of the different sex marriage I know, all but one changed their name but I’m an older generation from many people here. I expect my kids generation to have very different results: we’ll see in a few more years
Voting as a man when you’re not? Jail time for you.
Historically this was actively fought as an anti-fascist concern. Up until recently it was a big human right issue that you should not be required to show identification except in limited circumstances
And of course now with all the surveillance, tracking, and data collection, it’s more important than ever ….. just as we no longer care
people experiencing poverty are far less likely to be born in a hospital and have a birth certificate
For example my teen just needed his birth certificate for a new job and we somehow misplaced it. Getting an expedited replacement took almost two weeks and cost $80.
Even allowing for hospital birth and existing records, misplacing documents is all too easy and could easily become an obstacle to voting. If I’m struggling to make ends meet, no way in hell am I willing to pay $80 to vote and I wouldn’t have thought of it two weeks ahead of time
I can’t follow the link without logging in …. Is this one of those pellet heaters? I thought they look pretty cool, plus I have a pellet grill so it seems complementary.
Obviously I would remind the ai that it’s an outside appliance so it should generate a deck pic
However the ads seemed mighty scammy and I don’t like the idea of fire in such an unstable (tall and skinny) object, even outside
