    sure, but where I live that is in addition to any taxes. also not including bus fee

    You mean normal people who took responsibility for their own life and are educated and have normal job live longer, instead of being a parasite on someone else.

    lies and B.S. Stop spreading nonsense. I take it you don't cook or shop for food.

    You are shopping at the wrong store if celery was $4, more than 3 times what you can get that (lousy choice for nutrition anyway).

    The very cheapest food can be homemade. Processed crap is more expensive.

    Those of us who cook and provide for families know these things.

    I was speaking of adopting as national law... free tuition or this proposal can only be good on places where tuition is tightly regulated. we can put the private colleges and Unis out of business, it's fine.

    lolz, we're not going to go nuclear, get it out of your head. spouting idealistic nonsense that won't cut it in the real world is waste of time.

    Replacing coal with natgas does reduce emissions.

    Agressive pursuit of totally non-polluting alternatives will take decades to implement, that's reality.

    Human progress has extended life, cured and mitigated disease, raised standard of living.

    Religion and the ignorant mindset it promotes has maimed, killed, caused disease, and impeded the progress noted above. Not surprising since it is based on lies.

  11. limited to public schools? on No Tuition, but You Pay a Percentage of Your Income (if You Find a Job) (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't think the overpriced private schools should be a part of this, they'll just jack their rates even more.

  12. don't worry, node size has just been a marketing term now for years.

    It does NOT mean half-pitch or gate length is 10nm.

    It's a term for another generation of smaller chip size than the last one. And yeah, the 10nm components on one manufactures chip could be bigger or smaller than competitors 10 nm....or 12 nm.....

    great times we live in, marketing things by buzzwords and hype instead of hard data and specs. (marketing wanks and sales choads should be lined up and summarily shot, to usher in a new age of less B.S.)

    no one asked for article implying incidents at a whopping total of 3 stations out of 16,000+ were indicative of anything either.

    I live near one of the largest cities in the United States (also one of the "top ten EV friendly cities"), nothing like that has ever been reported here.

    In short, what this article is trying to make a news item out of, mostly is not happening anywhere, to anyone.
