That problem happened because there was no way to travel from town to town quickly so if the clocks were off nobody cared. The trains changed that.

Consider a site like arstechnica. Just tech news, less depressing crap.

At what point can you tax deduct your phone as a business expense?

In the short term it really helps productivity, but in the end the reward for working faster is more work. Just doing the hard parts all day is going to burn developers out.

If it were codified like this as law everywhere, people would accept it better. The rule breaking is what pisses a lot of people off. It would be much more predictable and safer too.

Our road system, retirement benefits, health system (except USA), public school system, national parks are all socialist.

How long it lasts. Year after year after year. No end in sight. No summer, winter or spring breaks. One vacation a year and a few sick days.

Alice, the secretary?

Christmas.

An environmental impact study on this would be interesting.

If you fine people based on their bank balance, you end up fining careful savers, not rich people with shell companies.

The best way to achieve the same goal for the more major fines is with custodial sentences. E.G. 2 weeks for drinking and driving.

And for the more minor traffic stuff with points and bans. If every one has the same number of points and gets the same ban, it is fairer

It is probably Home vs. Professional. Home has no AD either.

Absolutely. I don’t see a future where people go out to a 2010’s night like they would go to a 70’s night today. There is just no distinguishing character.

Now all the ‘new’ music is competing with similar oldies and there is nothing to rally around with friends anymore.

It’s not that music from the last 20 years sucks, more that it is just more of the same. There aren’t many bands you can listen to today where there sound isn’t that of a prior era, maybe slightly redone. When was the last real new musical genre? 90’s electronic, hip hop, R&b? 80s brought us alternative grunge and synth music. 70’s disco and prog rock and so on.

Thanks! I have a dynatrap, I’m going to try this mod!

I have tried these. They are expensive to run as you need to burn through a tank of propane each month. They do catch some mosquitoes, but they make little overall difference.

Still looking for a working solution.

Not disagreeing. We need more nuclear. Just saying people are scared of a major event than the constant low grade radiation.

While true when everything works, people don’t want to live near a nuclear power plant because sometimes there are accidents. They are rare, but severe when they happen. Also because nobody wants to live in sight of one, it affects how easy it is to sell land and property.
