I was at the Wynn Las Vegas hotel which gets a lot of guests from China where 4 is unlucky so they skip the 4th, 13th, and 44th floors. The building is technically 45 stories tall but the elevators go up to 56.
TIL US citizens have no constitutional rights when being held by border control on US soil. That was a real WTF for me.
We don't get to vote for the best option because we don't have ranked choice voting.
We will always be voting for the lesser of two evils because we are afraid of throwing our vote away on a third party or lesser known candidate.
If we had ranked choice voting, we could actually vote for people we like instead of voting against people we don't like.
It would open the doors for so many new politicians to stand a chance against the ones who simply have the most name recognition.
It mostly bothers me when I just order 1 entree and a water. At one place that might cost $10, and at another place it might cost $30, and all the wait staff did was carry a plate from the kitchen to me in both cases.
It doesn't seem fair that the wait staff at the more expensive place gets tipped more than the less expensive place just because of an arbitrary custom.
The extra cost of the expensive meal is mostly due to ingredients, the cooking process, the location, and maaay slightly more complicated table setting.
Subway fare dodgers steal $285 million per year, so spending $150 million to try to stop or prevent that in the future isn't that unreasonable. It turns out to have not paid off because they only caught people who owe an equivalent to $100k.
I imagine that they assumed the increased surveillance would prevent some unknown amount of future fare dodging which can't be quantified because the overall trend seems to be increasing.
Nalgene has been BPA free since 2008, don't hate on them!
Additionally, the minimal materials and manufacturing process are more environmentally friendly than metal vacuum seal bottles.
Vacuum seal bottles use a lead plug in the bottom, not so healthy when things go wrong with them.
Yes it was annoying how our families kept bringing up how we "got lost on the mountain" during the trip and we kept having to remind them that we weren't lost, just hiking!
This is like when I was 11 and my family went hiking up a mountain in Yellowstone. My young cousin and I thought my brother was ahead of us on the trail so we hurried up trying to catch up to him. We were passing many hikers on a busy trail and being safe.
An hour later my brother comes running up behind us saying everyone is looking for us! Apparently the park rangers had been mobilized to search for us, the missing children, and when we got down the mountain an hour or more later our families were down there in tears fearing we had fallen off the mountain or something.
Point being, it's totally possible for everyone to think you're lost and in danger when you are fine and know exactly where you are.
I'm guessing you're not getting many replies because you're not forming a coherent argument.
Your first comment was against Taylor Swift expressing the view that her fans should go out and vote. Your second comment is against "what she represents" which you left undefined other than the media cabal which is a separate issue and outside of her control.
Very good explanation. If usb-c is good enough for a MacBook, it's definitely good enough for a small headset - no excuses!
