I worked for BoJangles in the 90s at a starting wage of $4.75. They called it a training wage, for 90 days. It sucked, but not the job, or really the customers, it was the management. Managers never had, nor cared for, the respect of their reports.

Mr. Smith goes to Trenton. I am pleased that a blue collar person is engaged.

I’m happy but I don’t believe it.

That’s… Wow, since when can someone bar someone else from testifying in court? I thought it was the pursuit of truth?

The only thing I’ve learned from this discussion is that PETA is a disgusting organization, and it’s best that I have nothing to do with them.

Now do the Oculus Quest

The long, liberal knives come out

This occurs in America routinely, dating to 20+ years ago.

Oswald did as his passport said, renounced his citizenship, but the embassy attache did nothing further with it.

But in this case, even though you were living abroad, you’re still a American citizen and required to pay taxes. It’s not America’s fault that you’re living abroad for a decade. Is your intention to stay there for life, and if so, just renounce your citizenship. If you’re not willing to contribute as a citizen, why remain a citizen?

I think she should have become a Dutch citizen. Why was it necessary to hang on to her American citizenship when she reasonably could be assumed to have no intention of returning? I’m surprised some countries don’t require a longterm resident to apply for citizenship.

Allow me to explain and clarify: The need and dependency for healthcare is present in everyone’s life. We all need it, want it, but only some get it. Why put up further roadblocks?

Ok that sucks, and just lik credit scores, should be banned. Driving? Maybe. Theft? Maybe. But healthcare is present in the lives of everyone, and eventually someone has to take a pill. Discrimination by prescription.

Might big box stores partner for delivery? Targrt, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes, and perhaps Ikea, all sharing a centralized logistics carrier.

Really?? I believe in global warming and climate change, but it seems a bit extreme to forgo having children for that reason alone. Almost comically.

Translation: “We did something, and while it wasn’t hugely successful, it was definitely a step in the right direction and deserves more research.”

Why must the equalize everyone to the lowest level?

Totally Clickbait. This guy is so biased against Republicans and Trump that he blames everything essentially on them, and that this whistleblower is not really a whistleblower at all. I agree that she’s not a whistleblower, but I think we are in a post Obama era of cancel culture and tribalism. This didn’t start with Trump.

NameCheap is very confusing, the UI for domain management is terrible.

And the flood gates…open?

So before committing a crime against someone, you can check to see if they have a gun?

The days of AOHell!

Like an Aptera?

The future of shipping will be autonomous. It will end the horrible labor abuses, and quite possibly halt piracy. However it would require trust. An autonomous ship could just has easily be a Trojan horse!

This brings to mind Mr. Newsome and Mrs. Pelosi doing the same thing. I wish politicians would consider the optics of their actions.

Is there a general consensus in the technological community on the purpose of the National Security Agency?

I think it is also cultural. Some cultures are more socially engaged than others, particularly through religion, and holidays.

Would the individualism of American culture contribute to loneliness?

The entire police force can do nothing for you on the phone. I think it is the reductions in police that are convincing more women to purchase.

New York does not allow a manufacturer like Rivian to sell directly to the customer. They must go through a dealer. Tesla has an exemption but only for them.
