Actually, there's a pretty solid chance that a significant asteroid hitting Earth could create enough ejected material to cause serious issues for habitation facilities on the Moon.

I'm a fan of testmy.net. Ookla never seemed to give me actual results while I was on spectrum. Several times I'd just get a printout of what my speeds were supposed to be, but then no download would come close, and 480p videos could barely buffer.

The bathroom was the only place my family would give me even a moments rest. I used to hide in there just so I could disengage my brain for 15 mins. Then my mom decided I was doing something nefarious in there and she'd fucking sit outside the bathroom blabbering incessantly to try to drive me out.

All these other people are completely right, but also I just took mine off and flipped it so that the holes were on top it gave me a solid two inches more water space. It was just two phillips screws.

A username field isn't for your real name, it's for a username and it has always been for that. Stop being intentionally obtuse.

What's to stop them from using all of the required user fields and then running a background fingerprinting check and then using that fingerprint every single time you visit a site? It doesn't have to be your real date of birth. What matters is that it's a consistent info for your user account so that they can identify who you are. Obviously there are other ways to fingerprint a user, but this just makes it easier to do so, and it's another unnecessary datapoint for "them" to use.

People are defending this with such fervor, too, that it really makes a person doubt whether they're even arguing against actual humans. Like, I can see why people would be against general change or against privacy invasion, but why would someone care so much about defending a date of birth field?

Time is exactly why a lot of people in America choose to drive. Public transit practically doesn't exist, or would take two hours to go about a 30 minute drive bleeding away all your time. I just checked, and there's not even a bus that runs close to when I go in. It costs $4 and over two hours. I'd have to arrive more than six hours early to take the bus. And that's with the bus stop, literally in the parking lot of the business.

America needs to decuple their public transportation spending for about a decade just for us to catch up with the developed world.

Motor Bunny* don't ask how I know....

It sounds like this post is about pedestrians not paying attention and walking into traffic, though. It doesn't matter if they're driving too fast, if someone's not paying attention and walks out in front of a bus....

I think you're making a different but equally valid argument.

My wife was personally offended when I read her your comment. I thought you would enjoy knowing.

If this was true, then they would have no problem with agreeing to paying us $50 mil each in the event of a data breach, since it could never happen, right?

 

Hi friends! My wife and I are looking to move out there to somewhere around greater the Minneapolis area, from Ohio. I currently own my own home and I'm looking to sell and buy out there, hopefully within about a year if not sooner.

Would anyone be willing to give me advice either on selling my house, moving states or the area around Minneapolis, like what areas I should look at for housing.
