The state should enforce contractual agreements between people, and any combination of people should be allowed to enter a shared domestic property contract. Their sexual activity or preferences shouldn't even be part of the picture.
Yes, that means a man and a woman, or two men, or two women.
It also means three of one and two of another. Or any other combination.
I highly doubt that Verizon is being charged $2 for every card they run.
Merchant fees for "card not present" transactions (e.g. the merchant isn't physically swiping the cards) are about 22 cents plus 2% of the transaction value. So if you consider a cell phone bill at $100, the charge for the credit card transaction is $2.22.
Granted, Verizon probably has negotiated a better rate, but each transaction is probably costing not much less than $2.
This is a win-win scenario, as the bank makes money via transaction fees, and you make money because the bank is floating you the money for the purchase.
It's not a win for the retailer, who is ultimately paying for your fancy win-win scenario.
Yeah, you can get some pretty good VHF/UHF stuff for pretty cheap. I've got a Yaesu VX-8DR quad-band radio, with a 1200/9600 APRS packet modem built-in, and all kinds of other fun features. It was under $400.
I mean, sure, you can spend thousands of dollars on a rig, but you don't have to.
I believe the phrase they would wish to apply here is "reset your expectations."
Read their terms of service and look over all of the little notes and caveats displayed under the "security and privacy" settings and rethink that expectation of privacy.
That would also require you to not use any site that has Facebook integration. Just because you don't have a FB account doesn't mean they aren't tracking you.
Back when I was younger I wanted to see if I could get my hands on some "new old stock" 65C802s (an '816 with external buses scaled down to a 65C02-compatible package) for a personal project. So I emailed their sales address to see if they might know of a supplier who still had some or if they perhaps had some inventory to unload.
I got a reply from Bill Mensch himself. That was an interesting conversation that finally ended with me saying something like "I *really* only want like 5 chips and the project isn't going to be monetized... so maybe you should get back to whatever you do, and I'll just wrap a few adapters..."
I pay the same amount per month for garbage collection, recycling, water, and sewer that they do,...
You're talking bullshit if you think that's the universal truth. If you live 40 miles out of town here in the west you haul your own garbage or burn/compost it as needed. You haul your own recycling. Your water comes from a well. You have a septic tank.
Personally, I find the smell of most flowers highly offensive to the point that strong flower odors make me want to exit an area quickly.
Doesn't stop people from putting flowers every-fn-where. Before I left my last job, they had started putting a fresh bouquet of flowers in the lobby every day. I dreaded having to go in and out of the building and have to be near that damn bouquet.
The smell of honeysuckle is sure as hell pollution to me.*
The point being is that one person's "no problem" might another person's pollution. Some people consider excess light to be harmful, and therefore it is pollution to them. It doesn't make the characterization dishonest, it's merely opinion.
*Note that I am not on a rampage to screw all the people out there who like flowers. I recognize that my view is not shared by many.

Hours.
The advent of touchscreens means people are bending their necks downward for extended periods
Ever thought about, you know, holding the touch screen up, instead?
Yeah. My wife owns a small business. Costs of card transactions are not an iota to her.
She should be allowed to charge more for credit card transactions, because they cost more, but the merchant agreement forbids it.
IMNSHO, anyway.

More importantly, why use a big word when a diminutive one will do?
You may be completely unaware that a whole bunch of private companies that are not affiliated with Facebook have access to your personal data
Anyone who is unaware of that fact clearly does not understand Facebook's business model.

Me as well. I renewed my license about 2 years ago, and am only in my 30s.
Field artillery school, by chance?
The summart still sucks. "Self-cleaning" and "never get[s] dirty" seem to be mutually exclusive to me.
If it doesn't get dirty in the first place, how can it clean itself -- isn't it already clean?
Next: do the same thing with lead. I'm sick of seeing it in all my christmas light plastics.
Especially since you were obviously forced to buy them under duress!

Even though I expect only people I have marked as friends to see such information by my privacy settings?
If that's your expectation, I think you've failed to grasp Facebook's business model.
Besides, if you really need the connectivity, most carriers have phones that offer wifi tether. That's my solution.

At that point just title it "Bajor Trek" because, well, you've kind of left the stars out of it.

I know, that's what I grew up with.

That's what KICK and BAN are for. Apply liberally.
