But the issue is around competition between catering outlets. Restaurants offer different benefits to the local burger van, pub grub competes with bistro snack bars, they're all in the same market and as you say, they all have to adhere to the same food hygiene laws.
PayPal built their company by ignoring the financial regulations and fucking over their customers. I wont eat at a rat infested restaurant with abusive waiting staff, and I don't use PayPal.
Whether they call themselves a bank isn't really relevant.
..and responds by declining to pay full price for those game, waiting until they're old and on sale if buying them at all.
Meanwhile Steam, GoG and other platforms offer PC only games that take advantage of proper monitors, alternate input devices and the access to a market with a population large enough to support multiple specialised gaming niches.
Shit, I've spent 23 hours this week playing Warlock 2. Not available on consoles, excellent fun, looks good at 2560x1440.
Yes, it's all about me. I am the centre of my universe. I devote my life and resources to improving my life (and resources, so that I can further use them to.. this gets recursive).
At least I admit it.
Out of curiousity, given I'm already over halfway dead, just how much more should I grow up? Just that I've stopped growing up, I mostly grow out at the moment, although that'll probably reverse when I get cancer.
how many women do you know who could actually change a tire?
I think 2/3 to 3/4 of the women I know could actually change a tyre. Maybe 1/20 would - the rest would ring the AA or the RAC.
Pretty comparable to the men I know, on the whole.
Don't forget that a lot of people lack the physical strength to loosen a wheel nut that's been overtightened by a zealous garage worker intent that he wont be responsible for your wheel accidentally falling off.
I tried and maintain an average speed down roads with speed humps. I do this by accelerating sharply from one hump to the braking zone for the next, braking sharply, then going over at a speed that wont break my car.
It means they add wear and tear on my brake pads, fuel consumption (which causes localised pollution) and a lot of engine revving/braking nosie (which causes localised pollution) but doesn't really slow me down at all.
Fuck speed humps and fuck the cunts that want them. Car breaking pieces of shit. Pick a different way of slowing traffic flows if you need one, stop trying to wreck my fucking car.
I think it's fair to say, at least when you wear women's clothing, you are a transvestite. After all, that is the definition of the term.
Transvetites get sexual pleasure from the clothes they're wearing - hence transvestites are a subset of people that cross-dress, as are the fashion freestylers (who define themselves as not intersecting transvestites at all, although I'm sure some TVs would disagree).
I'm not always level headed, but on this topic, I tend to be. But I've flatshared with a pre-op transexual who went to work as one gender and went out at night as another. You rapidly start to just kind of shrug and get one with life.
Mostly male, although 'unwanted hugs' got close to 'sexual assault' one time I was out while wearing a vinyl skirt with lots of petticoats. He may not have realised from behind what he was taking hold of..
Keep telling people that when you're trying to get them to clean your office and its toilets for current minimum wage when they already have a basic income.
If I was alone with a stranger I had never met I certainly would not be accepting an *opened* beverage from them, even at a venue you shouldn't leave your drink unattended where you can drugged then robbed, it's the same thing, i.e Thanks, I'm not really thirsty.
Hmm. I accept cups of coffee from complete strangers regularly.
A one-on-one encounter with someone met through the Internet may admittedly be a reasonable justification for a little more caution. Then again, I've had male and female friends met online stay overnight at my house having never stepped into the country beforehand, so maybe I mix in different online communities to others.
Ouch, you have had an interesting past. In the Chinese curse sense.
On my part, - rapes: 0 - false accusations of rape: 0 - sexual assaults (perpetrated): 0 - false accusations of sexual assault: 1 (that I know of) - sexual assaults received: 2 (or off the fucking scale if you include unwanted hugs, which apparently counts these days)
Of those 2 assaults, one was by a group of four males, fought off by myself and a kind passer-by. One was by a woman. She was drunk. I was sober. Her male friend actually gave me shit for physically resisting her unwanted advances.
At best it's "Sexual assault", with a maximum 10 years' custody rather than Life (for rape), and an offence range of 'no prison' to 7 years, rather than 4-19 years (for rape). https://www.sentencingcouncil....
The law itself is sexist, even before you then start adding in the police reluctance to refer women to the CPS, the CPS reluctance to pursue a case against a woman or the discrepancy in sentencing that leads to women getting a lesser punishment for the same crime.
I think my life is going to be a miserable ongoing revelation of just how much Gibson got right, way back in '84.

Nah. Maybe a cafe if it's a fixed location truck.

Interesting that you've made some false assumptions about me, and chosen personal attacks instead of addressing the point I made.
It's a fucking stupid junction design, and the speed of travel is totally fucking irrelevant to that.
Really? Evidence?
My understanding is that men are more likely to die while driving, but women average more accidents per mile driven.
It also depends on your definition of 'better drivers'. I don't see many women driving at Le Mans or competing in Formula 1.
how many women do you know who could actually change a tire?
I think 2/3 to 3/4 of the women I know could actually change a tyre. Maybe 1/20 would - the rest would ring the AA or the RAC.

I don't drive in my five inch heels. Even though they're boots and a pain to remove, I take them off and drive in bare feet.
It'd be pretty fucking foolish not to.
Great. Your solution really is to create a shitty stupid fucked up junction.
Four way stop signs are just fucking idiotic. There are pretty much no circumstances in which they're an optimal solution.

Fair to say it's a continuum, and I'm on it.
I'm not transexual. I'm not a transvestite. I'm comfortable with blurring gender boundaries.
Mostly male, although 'unwanted hugs' got close to 'sexual assault' one time I was out while wearing a vinyl skirt with lots of petticoats. He may not have realised from behind what he was taking hold of..
Keep telling people that when you're trying to get them to clean your office and its toilets for current minimum wage when they already have a basic income.
40 hours work each week to add 20-30% to your purchasing power isn't worth the loss of time.
Low pay employees will need a higher cash incentive to do the shitty jobs.

Surely after they've removed her profile she's no longer a user of their site and has no obligation to conform to their TOS?
(leaving aside the idiocy of the TOS in the first place)
Other than the Indian women, of which there is a great pressure to allow themselves to be raped
Sorry, but that is just bullshit. Indian women don't "allow" themselves to be raped.
Get a fucking clue.

Not in the UK, no. Rape requires penile penetration:

So your mother didn't configure Windows to let it know she was on a metered connection?
Oh well, guess everybody learns eventually.
Triggers DMCA complaint. Why?
[...]
you may read the DMCA complaint that caused the removal(s) at LumenDatabase.org.
Google told you how to find out why. Rather than asking on Slashdot maybe reading the complaint might reveal the answer?
Is it me or is this a beautifully written allegory for EU immigration?
