The only way to look after land is to build a parking lot or use it to add another lane to a 32 lane highway.
You can get off with just a fine if you dig up the land and put down lawn turf. The fine is reduced if you use 5 gallons a day of water to keep it green.

At one point, blue LEDs were super expensive because of their difficult production.
So any product that has a blue LED was considered premium. I guess they were also considered futuristic and high-tech.
Somehow, this is still in the mind of some manufacturers.
All I want is a barely-visible-in-soft-daylight diffused/frosted red or amber LED.
But no, it's always some 5w lensed blue LED at somehow produces a tighter beam of horrendous blue light that's brighter than most flashlights.

You can take apart juice bottles.
The least realistic part is that anon managed to get to and dilute every bottle their gf used.
Cause if they miss one, their gf is gonna have a serious shock.

So, lack of consent and extremely controlling?

Those "once in a lifetime" or "once in a decade" weather events seem to be quite common these days

Yeh, but the late fees are good for people. Free market and free market. Drain the swamp etc. Just pay your debt on time. Or something, both side the same, yada yada.

A great example of the current presidency trying to do something good for a lot of people.

I have finally stopped using Spotify.
Now using TIDAL and absolutely loving it. It's like what Spotify used to be, loads of great recommendations, much better audio quality, a bit cheaper, and I believe the artists get a better cut.
It's too good to last, but I'm going to enjoy it while it does

I report them as spam.
Its nothing i signed up for, and consider it marketing. And there is no unsubscribe link in the email, and its from an unmonitored inbox.
That makes it spam, and i hope it trashes their mailer IP's reputation

I guess this is approaching the "find out" phase.
VW/Audi group fucked around with emission tests, and they found out.
