I come from a place that bans billboards. Arguably it’s fairly practical, no one seems upset about it and property owners seem to get by. Also there don’t seem to be issues of enforcement because everyone is more or less on the same page about it.
I recall once, I believe it would have been around 2014, watching approximately 50 SFPD officers, in full riot gear, patrolling a socialist worker's march--of less than 100 people--peacefully walking down Mission St.
I have no idea from what perspective your argument comes from. Frankly, I don't think you do, either. But I think in speaking to any resident of San Francisco you will hear many trends like this relating to lopsided (mis)use of police resources, and it comes in many flavors.
This comment is toxic and generalizes millions of people. I encourage you to look at yourself and decide if this is the correct place to spread your judgements.
> Eschew flamebait. Avoid unrelated controversies, generic tangents, and internet tropes.
Google’s search mechanisms and rankings have changed a lot over my lifetime. I don’t usually trust it to find the right answers to problems in my field unless it’s a very well supported technology. I don’t agree that “knowing how to Google” is a skill in its own right for this reason. Hell they even claimed not long ago they would fix quote searches but they seem worse than ever.
The last president who seemingly took issue with these powers was conveniently assassinated. His successor (and the successor's allies) wasted no time in appeasing those powers by beginning lots of wars that killed and destroyed the lives of many people. I too doubt anything will happen.
At the risk of starting a Chomsky flame war and for anyone curious about what happened in those wars, and why nothing will happen: read "Manufacturing Consent".
> We assessed trace metal contamination in backyard chickens and their eggs from garden soils across 55 Sydney homes. We also explored other possible sources of contamination such as animal drinking water and chicken feed.
I’m not surprised this would be the case with chickens foraging yards in cities. The title should probably reflect that as I doubt this would be the case in a less urban environment.
PSA: If you have been burned enough times using these apps then Perhaps you should give up ever believing they will change for the better. Cook food at home or skip the delivery and eat at a restaurant you know will be nice.
Consider the ratio of experiences you’ve had with any delivery app after the first order, good experiences to bad. Was the food late, cold, poor quality, damaged, or was its price marked up beyond what you initially believed?
If the same thing keeps happening and you expect different results then… well, you know what I’m getting at :)
On one hand, you have the perspective of this and other librarians where users are locked out of their accounts by Google in a (debatable) measure to secure them.
On the other hand, you have the perspective of computer repair people who routinely field calls and service computers due to the elderly (mostly, but also everyone, including tech literate folks) getting scammed, account takeovers, downloading malware, and worse!
So maybe the solution here is not to *force everyone and their literal grandma* to be using these machines for all of their business??
>Has Vox ever once published a single article that was positive or at least neutral about Amazon?
Why does this matter.
>Why do we allow such insanely biased media?
Great question. You might want to start with all American media and their biases towards, for example, the military industrial complex over the last 70+ years. Why do we allow such insanely biased media?
>Do people read Vox and think they're receiving an accurate depiction of reality?
No, my guess is people read articles on Vox they find of interest, and don't base their depictions of reality on one outlet of news media, which sounds unhealthy. Do you do that?
I recommend Sin City Outdoors on YouTube[1]. Father and son outdoorsmen have been doing some excellent first hand documentation of the water level decline. They do a dedicated update every two weeks.
I'm about to re-enter the job market. Pay is the biggest motivator due to COL increases (non-relational to human nature) which affects my ability to provide for my family (more relational). So, you're not wrong... but also far off track from the question asked.
All -- it’s a good idea for your card(s) to be “stolen”, maybe once every year or two. And yes, it is definitely “stolen”, and not lost. Reps will definitely ask this. If it is lost (which it isn’t), the “thieves” may be able to continue to charge your card number.
Those days don’t exist anymore. You shouldn’t feel pity for those kids, you should feel shame in being part of the generation that robbed all of those good experiences away. It’s no joke that a lot of these kids are depressed and have no skills or resources to find entertainment.
Before smart phones many of their parents watched TV for 4+ hours a day. What did you expect the kids to do?
Thanks for reminding me of the pleasure I feel having a setup that ignores all of the work you and other like you have done in this field. Personally, this whole comment is ludicrous… but I can’t explain why. Maybe it’s just a smell
You are correct, there were two trials. In the first, the jury convicted him of 1) contempt of court and 2) making false statements to the FBI.
> In March 9, 2020, after hearing four weeks of testimony and deliberating for six days, the jury convicted Schulte on two counts: contempt of court and making false statements to the FBI. However, jurors were deadlocked on eight other counts, including the most serious of illegal gathering and transmission of national defense information. Although the judge declared a mistrial, the government chose to retry the case.
