Why can’t they stay sitting?

To most people, it also implies wireless backhaul.

I’m still worried about how he’s even going to accomplish that, seeing as he’s also planning to deport the cheapest sources of agricultural labor.

Yeah, being on the beach doesn’t automatically make you safe from orcas. I’m personally very grateful that we apparently aren’t as delicious as moose.

It’s not about the sense of freedom, it’s about my severe case of “just one more chapter” addiction.

do what the right wing does

Maybe with just a little less cross burning, lynching, and religious extremism.

Yes. And Biden was chosen, which includes Harris being next up if Biden couldn’t perform the duties of president for any reason. If Democrats didn’t want the status quo, they should have chosen someone other than Biden.

The best way I’ve seen anyone put it is that by the time the election arrives, you are exclusively in damage control mode. If you want actual change, you have to have it done by getting your personal choice voted in during the primaries.

I find it worse when they swear that they didn’t do anything at all. The changes just happened spontaneously.

the relationships that landlords and renting creates are inherently unequal and therefore wrong

I don’t think I agree with your conclusion here. Some relationships are going to be inherently unequal, and that doesn’t necessarily make them wrong. Take the doctor-patient relationship as an example. If I’m in need of life saving medical care, the doctor has far more power in that relationship. For me it’s “buy or die” while for him, not treating me has essentially no negative consequences. This relationship isn’t “wrong”, it’s just unequal due to its nature.

With landlords (and with the medical industry), it’s not that the relationship is inherently wrong, it’s just extremely open to abuse due to that unequal nature. It’s the abuse that’s wrong, not the relationship itself.

I think it’s more accurate to say that things become fire.

Businesses generating their own power is not anything new. The big auto manufacturers used to do it back in the day, and if you scale down the concept, every windmill (the grain grinding kind) and waterwheel built and operated for profit is the same thing. I’m just happy that Google is seemingly having their own built, instead of getting taxpayers to build it for them.

Depends on the device and the usage. “Smart devices” can encompass a lot of things.

I thought dodging state imposed transaction restrictions was kinda the whole point of cryptocurrencies (other than the pyramid scheme part).

Most of the “what if” scenarios that I’ve come across focus on what if the Nazis hadn’t attacked the USSR when they did. If Germany was fighting on one front at a time, the question becomes does Germany take the UK, and if so, does the US directly enter the war at all?

Infiniti has the best center stack of all cars, and that’s a hill I am willing to die on. Screens for navigation, radio, and car settings, with physical buttons along the sides for common HVAC, etc controls.

They’re just bitter that they can’t have the “pets” they actually want.

“It works. What more do you want?”

Why is it that whenever something is spitting out junk data, those specific characters are involved?

The government probably wouldn’t have if both rail lines weren’t shut down simultaneously.

The Teamsters should take a page from the way the UAW/CAW handles the Big Three; focus negotiations on one, then tell the other “here’s the template”.

Keeping the rail lines running is too critical for the government to allow a protracted lockout/strike, but a (non-conservative) government would likely allow far more leeway if only one of the railways are shut at one time.
