In a properly dense, walkable city, there is literally not enough space for everybody to have a parking space, let alone a garage. If you try, e.g. by legislating minimum parking requirements, all you end up doing is ruining the city.
Yes, yes it should. But that’s a different act than the one being discussed here.
It’s the fault of those woke leftist school lunch policies that kids these days eat well enough to know what fresh basil is.
(Or “kids those days ate,” at least, because that policy is long gone due to Trump.)
fighting crime (or at least criminals)
I like that you made that distinction.
I think it’s just people assuming Wayne Enterprises is one of those evil all-encompassing mega-conglomerates common in fiction, like Buy n’ Large, Wayland-Yutani, or Amazon.
$250k * [every book in existence] is literally nothing?
Remember, “offense” doesn’t mean “per torrent,” it means “per copyrighted work infringed.”
Technically, copyright infringement is committed by the entity making and sending the copy, not the entity receiving it. Leeching could indeed remove liability.
I’m not sure if the courts have cared about that nuance when persecuting the ‘small fish,’ but I bet they would in this ‘big fish’ case.
I’d almost like to think an LLC would be enough, but I suspect that only works if you also have a billion in VC funding and political connections.
Plumbing, I refuse to do. I’ll do minor electrical work, but plumbing is a whole animal. It’s not a science. It’s wizardry.
Supply plumbing is no big deal (including soldering copper pipe); it’s the drain/vent side that’s intimidating.
I would ask for a rule that titles have to specify which Georgia the article is talking about, 'cause this legitimately could’ve been about people in Atlanta protesting Trump/Musk/Cop City/etc., but I suppose such an article would be removed for violating Rule 1 (“Not United States Internal News”).
Hatchbacks can fold down the rear seats to extend the cargo area. The Cybertruck fails even at that.
It’s an Ute (as the Australians et al. call it), like the old El Camino etc.
Real pickups have body-on-frame construction with cabs and beds bolted onto the chassis separately, so that the bed can be removed and replaced with a specialized/custom one if necessary.
My guess is that, with Musk basically in charge of the government now, investors are expecting huge returns from corruption.
I don’t know that there’s any sort of conspiracy, but it’s definitely true that a huge part of the market is in “dumb money” – index funds that just buy every stock weighted by market cap, and thus exert no influence on what the companies actually do.
I honestly believe Stephan Pastis is a better and more insightful satirist than anything you would see on (for example) The Daily Show.
I might even agree, but I want to add that that’s damn high praise because The Daily Show is no slouch either.
This is more like 1933, in terms of parallels to Germany.
You say “yet” as if there’s any indication it will ever start.
You say that as if we didn’t already do it once before, when we demolished perfectly-good walkable downtowns to pave over them for car parking.
