There's some pretty smart people in the field, don't you think if they are forced to come up with a solution that they will?

Thank you for making me laugh, that's a great mental image.

But it'll be over soon, you wait.

Money.

I feel you might be joking but that would actually be pretty cool

You're right. That's why we have a trial, with laws, a judge, a jury, lawyers, etc.

Are you telling me Chauvin did everything by the book, committed no wrongdoing, and you endorse his behavior? Or that he should be forgiven or given a slap on the wrist because what he did wasn't that bad? It's really hard to understand this line of thinking. Also "the mob won" - isn't that in a way what protesting is for?

Have you considered sometimes people are in a situation where that might not be reasonable?

If I sneak into a museum (one you would have to pay for) and look at all the art they have on display, but otherwise don't leave a trace, am I stealing?

I have serious doubts you actually believe that

This has been talked about on social media for weeks. People have been planning on doing this shit for a while now. Maybe, I don't know, the government could have prepared better? It's not "oh my god this protest came out of nowhere, what's going on".

When there was a small protest for BLM in my city, there were almost more cops than protestors, and all the buildings had been boarded up. You'd think DC would have a bit more resources than my city.

This was allowed to happen. If they didn't want the Capitol to be broken into, it wouldn't have been.

That's an awesome thanks for mentioning it.

I constantly have the same issue. Youtube even shows the video as already watched. I click not interested, then already seen, but another one pops up in it's place. Quite annoying.

Sometimes servers will be really cool and have a conversation with you, or make jokes, or be really charismatic, or go out of their way to figure out what kind of food you can eat if you have a weird allergy, and be really nice and obviously wanting to be helpful. They can please a difficult family member who generally complains about everything, or make great food suggestions based off what you say you like. There's a lot of stuff a server can do to go out of their way to stand out. Are you saying you've never had a server where you thought to yourself after you leave "wow, that guy was great."? (also I think some places aren't allowed to, or can't put pitchers on tables, so just ask for 2 waters for yourself if you drink a lot of water and don't want to be bugged)

You walk out the door. Or you wait until the server is away from your table before walking out the door if you don't want to risk confrontation.

People don't need to spend their money on the most optimal thing that benefits society. They can spend their money however they want. If they want to give it to a kind stranger who made their day better, who are you to tell them not to. I've had some awesome servers who have genuinely made me happier when I need it, screw it, I'll give them money to say thank you.

If you have money to spend on a $300 bottle of wine, you can probably afford a bigger tip. If you don't want to tip 15-20% on that $300, don't. There's a big difference from owning a dog, and paying for its food, than spending money on a fun alcoholic beverage.

I've worked at a restaurant for years, same with my friends. Good servers know how to not be too pushy. You greet them when they sit down, ask for drinks. You drop off drinks, take an order for appetizers. When you drop off appetizers, you take their food order and look around to check to see if anyone needs refills. You come back with refills, and then bring over the food when it's done. You walk past the table to check if there is any empty dishes to grab, and ask if they need anything else when you do.

Basically, my point is every trip that you need to make anyways, you check the table. If a table is hanging for too long, you start to get a little more pushy, because it's a business that's trying to make money. If it's a busy Saturday night and you have a table that doesn't want to leave, other people have to wait longer for that table, and also the restaurant makes less money. Imagine your annoyance if you make a reservation at a restaurant, and you get sat late because people are taking 3 hours to finish up.

Your point about obligatory tipping and not being able to penalize servers doesn't make any sense. If service is that bad, you just don't tip. If a server yells at you, you talk to the manager or just walk out the door. I've put zero for a tip a few times and no one has given me a hard time, and if they do, your night was already ruined by awful service anyways. Also, if you make it out the door in time, the servers won't even see your check by the time you're gone. If you can't bring yourself not to tip someone, that's on you. It happens ALL THE TIME. Almost every other night a server will tell me that so and so didn't tip, or tipped a dollar, etc.

By the way, none of this is for or against tipping, I'm just explaining my thoughts on the current system.

Apparently when I was a little kid, maybe 6 or something, I figured out how to deal with this. I was too short to reach the back of the microwave, so if I put something in the front, and it finished in the back, I'd have to call my mom over to help me. I figured out how long the microwave took to do a full circle, and how long it would take to do a half circle. So when I knew it would finish with a half circle, I'd push the food in as far as possible, I'd nudge it with my fingertips. When it was done, the food would appear in the front and I could grab it.

We don't want to break the moon in half now, c'mon.

Good luck having someone do that 24 hours a day, or during rush hour. I assume it's more about bulk collection.

So the market didn't crash this year?

You could just not read them. Look at the comments, if you find them useless, just move on instead of talking about whether or not this should be "allowed" because you don't like what some people are saying.

I apologise if this is off topic, but I swear 5 minutes ago in the shower I was wondering what company made that car. Thanks for saving me the search.

"Think of the children"

Since the other commenter didn't answer your question even remotely.. It's mostly schools that are lacking windows. Most places (that my tired brain can think of) at least have a window, not necessarily one that opens though. Might be different for other places, only speaking from personal experience.

I live in the US, I don't think my highschool had windows in any of its classrooms. They're may have been one or two that I don't remember, but the majority only had a "window" in the door that was a small rectangle, about 6 inches wide and 2 feet tall. Some didn't even have that, or the teacher had it covered with poster board.

Where does Coinstar's cut come from then? Wouldn't they be giving back the same amount you put in?

I'd say basically half the software I use on a fairly regular basis is usually pretty much garbage. Corsair Link is a clunky, laggy mess. It takes like 10 seconds to open it, every single time, even if it's running in the background. I have yet to use good software for "peripherals". Google home devices are cool when they work, but I've gotten frustrated with them too many times that I barely use them. I could go on.
