If you hold Trump in *that* much distain and think he is *really* that stupid and clueless, I don't see how you can believe he would be smart enough to be colluding with the Russians to throw the election
Yong people or even middle age people don't buy new cars, I don't what you do in USA but almost everyone buys second hand cars here - it's just too expensive to buy new.
Exactly. There are a lot of used fully functional cars out there. Decades worth. Those new ones that statistically the older folks can most afford to buy keep adding to the pool daily.
It will be a long time before electrics are a significant part of that pool.
I just recently signed up for Prime after a lot of consideration. Basically I worked out how much I spend on shipping Amazon products each year, and it met the threshold so I figured I'll pay my $80 up front and get the 2 day speed and I'll break even in the end and maybe watch some Prime Video as a bonus.
Now that I have it I realize I was looking at it all wrong. So many small items (ie $5 - $25) that I never would have ordered online because shipping raised the effective cost so much are now just a click and two days away without the shipping cost doubling the price of the item. The small stuff is where I am finding the biggest value. I expect this would be true for a lot of people, especially including teenagers.
I'm very much an instant gratification person, but I've learned to live with waiting for a couple days. In fact I almost always have something or other pending delivery, so it is still like Christmas a couple times each week:-)
I am surprised eBay is not even on the list though. I probably order as much stuff from them as I do from Amazon.
I have a humidifier running in the winter, when the forced air gas heat is very dry, and in the summer when the central AC is already taking most of the humidity out of the air. For me the humidity of drying clothes indoors is almost always useful, of course YMMV.
Uses 1/2 the electricity of an ordinary dryer. It has no vent to the outdoors, so the whole home envelope can be that much tighter. (It does have a water drain for the condensate.). The mechanism relies on warm, de-humidified air, rather than heavily heated air, so it is more gentle on clothes. They've been available as consumer products for a number of years now - it's not brand new technology
I have a 2 in 1 washer and condensing dryer. Saves a lot of space, and it is handy to just throw a load in and have it wash and dry without having to change machines. Obviously not good if you do a high volume of laundry or if you are concerned about speed - the condensing dryer is quite a bit slower than a regular dryer, whereas the one in the article seems much faster. Apparently these are quite popular in Europe, not so much in North America (I could only find four models when I was looking to buy).
Then it drained, and here I am. Yes, it took 10s of thousands of years. But it is also a very huge change. I for one am happy to be living during an interglacial.
Skipping lunch is actually a nice perk many people don't get. Can eat a sandwich or something on the go without needing to waste a whole hour of unpaid time.

Glyphosate (Roundup) is not a neonic. It is not even an insecticide.

I think the technical term is pawn.
Is a nation its government?
No, it is not. When people pledge allegiance to the USA they are not pledging allegiance to Donald Trump. Hope they remember that.
So instead of you getting your content everywhere, for most content this effects you will get it no-where.
Only for the people who actually want to pay for it. Everyone else will just torrent it.
Fortunately, I live in a lovely right to work state
Indeed. I can see no reason why you should make any more than a Chinese or Indian worker doing exactly the same job.

Oooops, sorry. Wrong forum.
Nobody wants cams.
I sort of hope the CIA decides that it is in the US interest to find and vanish anyone connected with this ransomware to make an example of them.
Sounds suicidal.
^this.

Didn't almost every new technology start out as a novelty item for rich people?
If you consider the military as such.
the company is operating in Austria
Time for that to end.
you dont invite the patients to review potential brain surgens
There is this website called RateMDs (https://www.ratemds.com/) and wouldn't you know, people do exactly that......
If your surgeon is a fuck up patients can and do notice.
Bozo the Clown would have been a better choice than Hillary.
Time will tell if that is actually the case or not.
let the Russians totally pwn their electoral process with impunity. Putin has made you folks a laughing stock. Just sayin.
Tomorrow I expect the French people will give a big fuck you to Czar Vladimir
...was British.
Coincidence? I think not!
He just got the date slightly wrong.
Put it on your keychain. Try not to lose both......

Except when their servers are down apparently.
Which is fine so long as you don't use it for anything important.
completely peer-to-peer and relies on centralized services it is not much use.

Yes, the spot I am sitting right now used to be covered by hundreds of meters of ice.
Then it was covered by hundreds of meters of water.

Hell, I'd skip lunch for those hours.

I do it most days.
It's almost like Tesla knows what it's doing.
Maybe one day they will even make money at it.
