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?

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.

There is no need for a separate sound card now, it is built in.

Solid

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.

38yr old German lady?

Everybody would fall over.

If companies were looking for applicants there, it is clear discrimination.

Alice, the secretary?

Its main asset is its name, and he changed it. What a moron!

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

The entire health insurance industry too. That is likely over a million people.

This is nonsense.

‘Exception for male dairy calves, production is predominantly pastoral-based, with young stock spending relatively brief portions of their life in feedlots. ’

Almost all cattle spends some time on feedlots, as grain improves the meat close to slaughter. Ignore these sites that give the false impression that almost all cows are raised in feedlots. It is blatantly incorrect and obvious to anyone that drives outside the city and looks out of the window.

Local mass transit should be free. It is already really heavily subsidized, often almost entirely subsidized, so it wouldn’t cost as much as you think.

It’s about time the ad hosts, like google and Facebook, are found liable for all this nonsense in a class action.

A lot of ads should be banned for environmental reasons alone. From junk mail, lit up signs, eyesore billboards, and all the power wasted in digital ads.
