How about, "If Taxis were better and cheaper, would more people use them over public transportation?" That seems obvious.
There are already people in, say, New York who take some trips by Taxi and some trips by subway/bus. Let's call it a 50-50 split. If Taxis got cheaper and more convenient for them (a la Uber and Lyft), it might become a 60-40 split. Fewer people, immediately, on public transportation - although it might rebound.
It's certainly less impactful in, say, LA, where people either (a) always drive, or (b) always take public transportation, because they can't afford to drive. Taxis in LA are for people going to clubs or to airports, and Uber and Lyft just cut into the taxi market, not the bus market. Some people, not as many as in NYC, might reach the bus-to-Uber tipping point there too, but I doubt it'd be as drastic.
It's sort of like asking why I need something other than your credit card to make purchases. It's no problem for small purchases, but voting for our elected officials is (or should be) a big deal.
There's no problem with making sure that people don't fraudulently vote. I don't think that voter fraud is a big problem, mind you, and I think "voter fraud' are just scare words mostly used to drive republican voters out to the polls to make sure their voice isn't drowned out by all the terrible "fraud" being perpetuated by the evil, evil, democrats and their zombie army of illegal aliens.
Presenting a valid state or federally recognized ID when voting should be the only thing you need. Compare to list of registered voters (or those automatically registered by having current valid ID) and done. But if you're going to do that, put simple services in to allow people to get or update their IDs.
The problem is solved on all sides by announcing ID restrictions that go into effect at the next major election, and providing state ID services at this one.
I mean, if you wanted to solve the problem, and not just keep poor voters from the polls.
Unless you've got some of the magic seeds that grow as well as Dupont's seeds but don't genertically break down and are free, then you've provided a false choice.
Stable hybrids are tough. Their seeds aren't so much crippled by default as they're nigh impossible to make if any useful gene is recessive.
How do we define old? Do aspen groves count? If so, if I give birth to identical twins, are they one organism for the purpose of counting age, or must they be conjoined?
What about Turritopsis dohrnii? Or are pictures of tiny jellyfish uninteresting?
Any thoughts about the real ages of Adwaita, Henry, Tu'i Malila, Harriet,or Timothy? Do you think they have any thoughts about us?:)
Your first request for footage not of a case you are personally involved in or involved in the legal defense of is $1.00. The second request is $10.00. The third is $100.00 and so on...
The "dis" of disgruntled is not the same as the "dis" of "dismayed." It means "completely", and so "gruntled," just as it sounds, is an old word that means "grumbling."
It's pretty awesome, I'll give it that, but it's also pretty repetitive, and a lot of its players are already off to the next game -- which incidentally was COD:AW.

X% change jobs after 1 year. Y% change jobs after 2 years. Z% change jobs after 3 years. etc.
In my experience, people tend to change jobs because of something happening at their current job (or a personal/family situation change). And that's not something that can be predicted with any degree of accuracy.
It's hard to predict a single person with any degree of accuracy. It's easy to place a group of people at high risk.
Take whatever you know about someone...
And weigh that against how many times you put the words "tired," "traffic," "supervisor," and "human resources" in your posts. And weigh that against what your posting frequency during working hours. And weigh that against what Google Now knows about when you drive to work, and how early you leave every day. And weigh that against how long you linger between page-clicks to figure out your "bored quotient." And weigh that against if you hovered over job ads or visited Monster/Dice And weigh that against how many files named Resume you put on your Cloud drive. And so on and so on and so on.
I'm pretty sure you could identify plenty of people at high risk for job change.
Long before you can "just buy pot on Amazon," I think it's much more likely we'll see Amazon provide a link between local sellers and local buyers, perhaps in places were Amazon already has local warehouses -- pardon me, "Fulfillment Centers."

If your watch is broken and runs at 99% speed then I think you only get the right time every 49.5 days or so...
Wut?
If your watch is slow, running 99% of normal speed, it means that the hands on a correct watch "laps" the slow watch every 23 hours 45 minutes and 36 seconds.

It will not.
Or, yes, it will, or might. If we're speculating.

Except people don't care who the publisher is if the developer or franchise is good enough.
Dragon Age is Bioware, the same development company that brought us SWOTR, Mass Effect and Baldur's gate.
I DNGAF who publishes their software as long as was made by Bioware.
If Bioware goes to shit, so be it...

Every time I hear "big Ag," I assume we're discussing a large silver deposit.

The cost resets every year.
My yearly "bedroom time" is my yearly performance review.
I meet or exceed expectations.
You next video project should be to compile a feature film composed entirely of "found footage" in by-cop shaky-cam.
Would you care to share any of those factual errors, or did you just want to announce that they existed?

Gruntled, however, is now in the dictionary, in use since the 1920's, from people taking the "dis" off of disgruntled.
I watched Colossus: The Forbin Project on someone's recommendation the last time one of these topics came up.
As a fan of 70's dystopian sci-fi, it was a wonderful watch.
Yeah.. ..manned by you, and your partner, who is probably sleeping or watching TV, if there's anything on it he hasn't seen.
24 hours shifts, filled almost entirely with boredom broken by checklists.
I'm not sure Destiny is going to last.

To be fair, the Russian website isn't streaming the videos any more than TPB is hosting copyrighted material.
The Russian website has a lot of IMBED tags and links, I imagine.
"City Attorney Mark Zoole said the bill never left City Hall and would be returned to Smith, should he ask for it, once it was no longer considered evidence in a criminal case."
I'm guessing that their "algorithm" is more like:
X% change jobs after 1 year.
Y% change jobs after 2 years.
Z% change jobs after 3 years.
etc.

One thousand $1 bills, or $1000 bills?
I hope you're banking by time machine in the 1880's if you prefer the $1000's.
