Do you think I should be forced to pay for a ticket if I'm standing next to the concert venue on the sidewalk but can still hear the performance?

You're stealing their time. That's not really comparable since the people who made the tv show or movie you're pirating have already been paid.

Piracy isn't costing these companies any money if people never intended on giving them money in the first place. This argument almost implies that these companies have an inherent right to our money whether we want to spend it with them or not.

You must ask yourself how the Republicans are able to pass such legislation while the Dems can't ever seem to get anything done "because the Republicans interfere with it", even with a Democratic super majority.

Doesn't make much sense.

The sad part is that this is a legitimate possibility. They'll gun down her and her unviable fetus in order to protect their lives.

Definitely concur that half that list is made-up. The key point they're missing is that nothing on that list is a right bestowed upon us. It shouldn't cost you money in order to vote in an election.

Don't use Amazon or Ebay, use something like serverpartdeals.com so you know you're not buying from some fly-by-night company that'll disappear when you try to do a warranty claim.

$18/TB is a crazy high price. I've bought most of all my WD drives new for <$15/TB by waiting for sales on Easystore/Element drives

You can still use one of these with the NAS as storage. A Synology doesn't have a lot of horsepower to run programs directly on their hardware so if you plan on doing something like a media server you might encounter some issues. An optiplex (or any other PC) running Proxmox will let you run a bunch of different containers or VMs separately

Good to know. Thanks for sharing the link

Relying on a UL logo isn't much protection as you must trust that the company is being honest in using it. Best bet is to rely on a company's reputation, which may not result in you getting a quality product, but it should be safe at the very least.

If you think it's bad now imagine how bad it would be if every trip took 2-5 times as long meaning you'd have 2-5 times the amount of cars on the road at any given time.

I live on the west coast where cities aren't as dense as the boroughs of NYC or most eastern states.

My main problem with this line of thinking is that our cities already exist as they are, and it would take Herculean effort from the government, citizens, and companies in order to raze and rebuild them in a more ideal way.

My city passed mixed use zoning to tackle exactly this years ago and nothing has changed.

Look at the name of the channel too.

Obviously these officers murdered this man in cold blood or that bodycam footage would be immediately out in the public eye. This DA should be charged for helping to cover up a murder.

How many people live a 5 minute walk from a grocery store? I think the closest one to me is about 5 miles away in a city of 250k+. That'd be like a 4 hour round trip walk on average.

"Sensible." If that were the speed limit in the US, we'd probably need to triple the amount of asphalt on the ground to handle the gridlock of people being limited to 18MPH.

This guy is under an FBI investigation and felony fraud charges. He is ignoring the court because he holds a criminal mindset and has zero respect for the law.

You don't seem to be aware of what 'statistics' are as you unsurprisingly haven't provided any in traditional ignorant-loudmouth fashion.
