There's simply no shortage of willing participants for adult film actresses. Producers don't need to drug them. They are, after all, producing and distributing a video record of their event -- which seems unwise.
Do some willing adult film actresses use drugs, appear on camera under the influence, or even produce drug-themed adult films? Absolutely.
32. Have you ever personally experienced inappropriate or sexual remarks, comments about physical beauty, cognitive sex differences, or other jokes, at an anthropological field site? (If you have had more than one experience, the most notable to you.)
The section is entitled Sexual harassment and assault so you would hope people would be contextually aware that "or other jokes" means of a sexual nature. But it's still a badly worded question. I further assume the reader is supposed to parse "inappropriate or sexual" as prefixes for the other items, but we live in a tightly wound panties world when comments about physical beauty are harassment.
39. Have you ever experienced physical sexual harassment, unwanted sexual contact, or sexual contact in which you could not or did not give consent or felt it would be unsafe to fight back or not give your consent at an anthropological field site? (If you have had more than one experience, the most notable to you.)
The problem, again, is a terribly worded question. Are we to again assume physical should extend through the commas? Or is unwanted sexual contact just a fat girl asking a handsome dude to get a date after the working day is done. Is all physical contact unwanted sexual contact now?
The math for their statistical distributions is fine.
Their questions suck, lack good wording, and lack examples. [Not limited to but including......excluding FOO, but not limited to BAR.]
Their "classic" offering is a solid tool. I was unimpressed with one of their early cordless models. I'd buy them again if I were replacing my "classic."
This might be the most consumer-friendly-name company providing a device, and being able to buy one at Home Depot means it's likely returnable at Home Depot -- at least once it makes it from the website to the stores.
The price point is almost meaningless, since to most, every other company is going to seem like a nerd toy, while Dremel(tm)(r)(c)(sm) Brand Tools sounds like something trustworthy.
Because CocaCola doesn't provide their vending machines. An small army of vending machine companies servicing every city in America service vending machines, and put in bill readers and credit-card readers if it makes sense for them to do so.
Most new credit card readers for vending machines already take NFC.
Unless Apple is going to partner with CocaCola and send every one of these mom-and-pop vending machine companies a pile of readers and then pay them to go swap them all out, don't expect change there soon.
We silly Android people can "Send to" all we want.
It's still vastly easier under in the right situations to just tap two phones together to share a complex URL or map location. Beats "highlight," "select all, "copy" start IM or email, "Pardon me sir, what's your email address? Can you spell that?..."
Bumping to exchange CONTACT INFO precludes private sharing.
You almost answered your own question. Keying behavior on NFC tags is the big one. Triggering a sequence of events based on an NFC tag is pretty common. Oh? I'm in the cup-holder in the car? Turn off WiFi, turn on BT, start playing Pandora. I'm on my desk? Turn on WiFi, turn off BT, dim the screen, and start syncing my backups.
My extended family all has NFC-enabled Android devices. Bump phones to quickly exchange a contact or photo or long URL? Done.
Beyond that, it's mostly dorking around reading other NFC tags out of curiosity:)
For a level 2 charger, you'd already need to have spent $500-$1000+ on a home kit (and possibly installation, and/or a new 220 outlet), and the grandparent could have charged his Volt in two hours tops, giving him ample opportunity to charge during any window he'd like. Unless you've bought the absolute bottom-end of the home chargers, delayed/timed charging is generally an option on residential level-2 chargers. The only way to not charge timed on a level 2 charger is to buy the absolute cheapest ones on the market and put no forethought into your install.
That said, almost all electric car owners just use 110 and charge overnight, with the "dumb" charger the car manufacturer provided.
There are plenty of 15A fish tank timers that are suitable for togging the provided charger.
If they can get malicious links and viruses, they can hit the web.
If they can't hit the web, and they only get port-25 email, and they can only open the attachments they're sent -- why not just give them a mail client that drops the attachments?
As a developer I'll just say that "face time" and interacting with coworkers are two of the main impediments to me getting shit done.
That's because you're a curmudgeon.:)
Obviously the people we work with can be distractions, but there's value in being in proximity with the team you work with at least some of the time even if that time is spent just building a sense of being a team.
I have the ability to WFH about 1 day a week now, and previously could do about 2. But I'm not sure even I'd want to do 5 if it were offered. My wife, who does sales, works out of our home (another reason not to be there, amirite!), but even she treks into the corporate office to get face-to-face with her team and visits clients face-to-face after initial video conferences.
If you drive an electric car a thousand miles a month (remember, it has a short leash - if you drive much more, you're depending on public chargers at your destinations to supplement your range), you're still only using 256 kWh, since the Leaf and the BMW both get about 3.9 miles to the kWh. With the minimal charging inefficiencies not withstanding, that means you've got $38.90 in extra power each month for a thousand miles of electric driving at the CA average of 15.2c/kWh. [Aside, with the national average cost of gasoline at about $3.60/gal -- more in CA -- you should be getting about about "100eMPG" in converting cents on the electric meter to cents on the pump.]
Your Volt looks like it has a 16.5kWh battery. It should cost you $2.50 a day (on average) to charge --- especially since anyone with a fish-tank timer on their charging plug can get 11 cents/kWh charging from midnight to 9am.
Of course you CAN pay more, but why? Your corner case with overages and daytime rates are atypical.
If your monthly power bill doesn't have room to some artificial cap for $1.29 a day in electricity, then you might want to consider unplugging your toaster.
This logic, reduced ad absurdium, basically says we've had the technology since the dawn of man.
The first IBM PC should have run at 4,77 Gigahertz, not megahertz, and should have been released in 1774 after the continental congress convened at the cost of 1 ha'penny.
These poor Nevada citizens, winning the bidding war for thousands of new jobs, plus plenty of taxes than the ZERO they'd collect if Tesla went elsewhere.
No. They're signs that law-enforcement can use to help them identify possible smugglers. Do you feel a special need to put words in my mouth and then become outraged at them?
Perhaps the author of the CBC article shouldn't have taken so many shortcuts in writing his article and just posted a link to the Washington Post article.
It says pretty clearly that abundant energy drinks or air fresheners were a potential indicator of smuggling -- which they are. While a back seat full of empty Monster cans might also be a good indicator of non-stop driving by spring breakers to Daytona, it's also a sign that you might be looking at smugglers. Abundant air fresheners, while possibly a sign that the guy in the passenger seat is lactose intolerant, is also a fair indicator of hiding a smell that wasn't just running over a skunk back up the highway. [In much the same way that slurring words doesn't necessarily indicate a drunk, it's certainly a possible indicator.]
As best I can tell nowhere in the WP article is clothing mentioned. I have to assume the CBC author came to that idea all on his lonesome.
Like I said to another poster. This unlawful seizure has only happened in a handful of cases over the last decade, and those where corrected by the courts, property returned and officers involved appropriately disciplined.
The original story reads like this happens every day. Sorry, that's not true. It doesn't happen once a week, or once a month even.
Are you sure?
From the Washington Post article that the CBC author quoted.
There have been 61,998 cash seizures made on highways and elsewhere since 9/11 without search warrants or indictments through the Equitable Sharing Program, totaling more than $2.5 billion. State and local authorities kept more than $1.7 billion of that while Justice, Homeland Security and other federal agencies received $800 million. Half of the seizures were below $8,800.
I'm not sure about the numbers either, but even if they're off by an order of magnitude, it seems like a lot of seizures.
Further interesting is the last line. It reads to me like half of the seizures are ABOVE $8,800.
As much as I like the idea of limiting my responses to legally identifying myself according to my state's laws, presenting any registrations or licenses potentially necessary, and then locking myself into a loop of, "am I being detained?" "am I under arrest?" "am I free to go?" I'm also smart enough to know that the any chance of the officer simply sending me on my way with a warning to keep my insurance card in the car and get a new tail-lamp next time I pass a Checker/Kragen/AutoZone flies right out the window when that happens.
It's a good idea to know your rights, not offer consent to searches, not volunteer any unnecessary information...but it's downright foolish to get into some sort of "I am being detained" back-and-forth through a slit cracked in the window.
I have a friend who, along with his wife, "retired" in their mid-20's.
They were both employed, had recently bought a house -- the sort of thing you expect from a new couple in their 20's. They were quietly living the white-picket-fence version of The American Dream. The company that they were working for got bought out. Employees - fortunately - had the opportunity to take a buyout on their position and leave with a tidy sum in their pockets. They sold their house for a small gain, took their buyout money, and have spent the last 20 years in a mobile home, moving from one state park to the next, hiking and living frugally. They both work part-time as trail guides in exchange for the occasional RV hookup fee or to supplement their retirement fund.
It didn't take much money for them to disconnect and live about as off the grid as you can comfortably.
I'm not suggesting this as practical advise for anyone -- but I've actually seen it work. If I liked hiking and camping (20 years of hiking and camping) I'd be more jealous.
A roundabout is simply nothing more than a right hand turn at a yield sign, followed by an exit ramp. If your application can't handle that, then why the hell is it on the road in the first place?

Again with this "blow past tiers" nonsense.
Software on the car or not, a fish-tank timer is rated high enough and can turn your plug on at midnight when your cheaper rate kicks in.
Why would you "blow through" usage limits?
Your numbers are nuts.
If you drive an electric car a thousand miles a month (remember, it has a short leash - if you drive much more, you're depending on public chargers at your destinations to supplement your range), you're still only using 256 kWh, since the Leaf and the BMW both get about 3.9 miles to the kWh.
