The article you linked? You've completely read it wrong. Or you're lying.
I hear crap like yours from so many people. Who is disseminating this misinformation to you? And every time we investigate, it's so obviously wrong!
TFA:
A lot of recyclables are thrown in the wrong bins
TLDR; The city is NOT dumping recycle bins in the trash. People are putting stuff in the wrong bins (either the trash instead of recycle, or the wrong recycle bin).
Do other countries have such guilt for existing as the U.S. seems to have?
Yes. Germany is a great example of this. After the horrors they inflicted during WWII, they were (rightfully) too timid to fly the German flag until even a few years ago. People that commit atrocities should feel shame. It should not cripple them, but should remind them to do better next time. There is a term for people who don't feel guilt: Sociopath.
If a single non-radio'd IoT device can reek havoc to Brooklyn's LTE, could a rouge entity--government or otherwise--use millions of compromised devices to bleed all over the 700MHz channel across the country, perhaps in a coordinated attack? Could our smart thermostats and doorbells take down our mobile communications?
Forcing a halal butcher, or a vegetarian butcher (yes, they exist), to sell pork is _entirely_ different than forcing a cake maker to...make a cake...and sell it to gay people just as they would to straight people, or black people, etc. We've been through this before. Separate-but-equal "you are free to take your business elsewhere" is not going to fly here.
I know trucks rely heavily on engine breaking while going down interstate mountain passes. Without engine breaking, their breaks will overheat and fail. The Tesla can engine break fine, until the battery is full, but then what?
The Prius charges its batteries in "B" (engine break) mode. But when the batteries are full, it actually starts to spin the ICE. You can tell because it gets louder. The Tesla has no ICE to spin. Could they dump the power into giant external heaters? Maybe defrost the road on the way down?
Just last year Amazon moved developers into the brand new T3 office building. It's the first tall wooden warehouse built in Minneapolis for over a hundred years. You should check it out!
I guess Safari users could install extensions to change the User-Agent to Chrome or FF, but I wonder how many people will do that. Seems like a pain. Does Safari even allow an extension to do that?
...so websites will support Safari less and less, if at all. Because a Safari user will bring in less advertising revenue than a Chrome, Firefox or IE user. Why waste time on a user that doesn't pay the bills? Like a coffee shop catering to the freeloaders.
If you're correct, which I hope you're not, then our military should only be Hetero White Germanic Protestant Men.
Otherwise people could fight about their religion (Catholics can't work with Protestants), or ethnicity (Germans and Italians don't get along too well), or gender, or race (some races are lazy), or sexuality.
Yes, all of those have been used previously to exclude people from serving in This Man's Army. Don't think that today's issues compared to past issues are somehow...special. People have always felt that the issues of their time were unique to them.
"How in the fuck" indeed, sir. The tremendous costs of gender reassignment will literally tank the entire military spending budget! Tremendous!
Now quit deflecting and get back to reality. The military spends more on ingrown toenails than the US spends on gender reassignment. There are just a lot more toenails than there are trans people. Get some perspective, man.
I know females, gays and trans-gendereds that could run and kill circles around many of the military cis-males who probably cry and wet their beds at night. So STOP EQUATING GENDER WITH MENTAL STRENGTH!
Right! Because currently the US military spends next to nothing* on medical for it's cis-male soldiers. No hospitals or doctors are needed* to treat our hetero-military and vets, because they are so Focused and Decisive! But once the flood of trans-soldiers comes marching in, only then will military spending spiral out of control. And there goes our overwhelming victory.
You mean "LET Passengers Stand", giving them an option to save lots of money. No one is going to force all plane passengers to stand, but this would finally give people the option.
The Vienna Opera House doesn't MAKE people stand, but getting to see a professional opera for €20 is worth standing for three (3!) hours. It makes these tickets accessible to those on a budget. The standing section is always packed, literally.
Speaking of accessible, I don't like the idea that medical conditions could force someone to pay more because they can't stand. Does this get addressed?
Yeah, how dare we try and make our country any better until all other countries on Earth have reached our standards, too. Why did we fight for the women's vote while Saudi Arabia doesn't let women drive? We must stop all progress and let the world catch up.
Have you been to China recently? I just rode on China's 14,000 miles of electric bullet train lines. At 217 MPH I saw wind farms, nuclear reactors, electric scooters, the world's largest hydro-electric dam, and buildings taller than any in the USA.
I know that self-driving cars will bring better fuel economy, but I imagine that 1) people will be willing to commute much further distances to work once cars drive themselves, 2) many transit users (bus, train) will go back to single-occupancy cars once traffic jams go away and cars drive and park themselves, and 3) cars will just drive themselves around the block waiting for their owners to return from shopping/lunch/work, to avoid parking fees and hastle.
This all means MORE resources consumed because of self-driving cars, right?
...I've ever considered using Tor. Thank you Republicans for giving us reasons to obfuscate our online behavior. The FBI and CIA will love what you'd done.
I did a haveibeenpwned check against our domain name and a couple of fake email addresses showed up in the NetProspex leak. These were email addresses that have never existed. Plus, none of our actual email addresses were in the leak.
This may be a list of 33.7 million mostly fake or SPAM email addresses. Just sayin'.
...and the totally transparent corruption of the DNC...
You nailed it. The DNC's corruption was transparent. While the GOP hid theirs better.
Why didn't WikiLeaks release hacked Trump campaign or GOP emails? We'd expect leaks and hacks to target both parties. Did this come down to who's emails were more hackable? Or does the Left not have the hacking chops that the Right does? Or were they less motivated?
I just can't wait for the day when I can no longer buy food without a working, charged smartphone with a corporate grocery app installed. [/sarcasm]

This administration is determined to make the USA more like a third world country.
This administration is determined to make China look more like a first world country.

"You're a moron. Let somebody else raise your kids" I'm going to have some kids just so you can raise them and teach them how to discourse.
Step 1: Call anyone you disagree with a moron and a poopy-face.

Don't worry. We're bringing back coal!

....a man wearing board shorts entered the women's locker room...
Didn't Trump pretty much do this exact same thing, before any laws had changed? And what ever happened to that guy...
living in primitive conditions
Have you been to China recently? I just rode on China's 14,000 miles of electric bullet train lines. At 217 MPH I saw wind farms, nuclear reactors, electric scooters, the world's largest hydro-electric dam, and buildings taller than any in the USA.
So which country are you calling primitive?
I know that self-driving cars will bring better fuel economy, but I imagine that 1) people will be willing to commute much further distances to work once cars drive themselves, 2) many transit users (bus, train) will go back to single-occupancy cars once traffic jams go away and cars drive and park themselves, and 3) cars will just drive themselves around the block waiting for their owners to return from shopping/lunch/work, to avoid parking fees and hastle.

Yeah, too bad about the 401k though. You should never say things like, "my 401k ain't shit," without expecting things to instantly go to shit.
...and the totally transparent corruption of the DNC...
You nailed it. The DNC's corruption was transparent. While the GOP hid theirs better.
