The Nazis may have been copying us, look at Puerto Rico

That a member of the Secret Service accidentally shot President Kennedy. Mortal Error: The Shot That Killed JFK - Wiki article on 1992 book putting forward the idea

Generally you can’t purchase a firearm in another state, and when you can only it’s usually only after either shipping to a gun dealer in your home state or having the gun dealer comply will ALL laws of both states. Source - ATF citing US Code and CFR

Based on dubious sources (tweets) this article claims she is seen with him so rarely, and often so negatively (such as arriving/departing separately), that the Tump team has had to release photoshopped images (of which still seem to number low single digits a year).

Dramatization of the debates

Municipal Broadband 2023: 16 States Still Restrict Community Broadband. Almost a third of states have restrictions in place currently.

Waking Life - 2001 Film is an amazing film about lucid dreaming, reality, and the consequences of such. It really is a must watch til the end, it has one of those endings that everyone draws their own conclusions about.

When the idea first came up with Bloomberg, it was gonna be an $8 toll and a full toll credit for the then about $4 and change toll (ezpass price, $6 cash) while using ezpass. Immediately after that plan came out the Port Authority (which runs Holland and Lincoln) immediately raised their ezpass price for the tunnels to $8. For a time I believe all toll credits were taken off the table because of what the PA did 15 years ago, and toll credits have been very contentious since.

Orlando is about 50 miles inland and 100 feet above sea level, I am pretty sure the rides could slide down into the sea and sail off at less cost since you wouldn’t need to fight gravity.

No toll credits for the GWB, and the credit on other crossings is limited to $5 off the the daytime toll of $15, no credit during nights and weekends because the toll drops to $3.75 at those times.

ETA - my prices are ezpass discounted ones

I can’t think of a major suit regarding this, but I would imagine thats half the reason decisions like this get made. I can easily see the people making this decision asking the legal department the same question, and the lack of an easily identifiable loss solidifying the choice.

I think he meant billions served

All of your sources all seem to quote the same Israeli statements put out by IDF reps, it is as if you willingly ignored the guy you are replying to and what they were highlighting by providing more of the same.

Even the more advanced cars, the so called level 3 cars that have come out in last year (Tesla I believe is still the lower rated level 2) do not do as much as people think. And even the Level 3 cars I have tried suffer from a serious drawback in that they essentially will ditch self-driving with little warning in populated areas. In the burbs and country with straight highways the vehicles can do alright and/or enough to convince people they are FSD. In city areas I have seen vehicles lose GPS-lock and unable to read the lane markings just kick out of self driving mode, which can happen semi-often around large trucks and heavy bridges, a life or death situation if you weren’t paying attention or stupid enough to sit in the back for a tiktok.

It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me

They are still around, they definitely aren’t as popular they were around the turn of century full list here, including one in Canada (SK) and one in Mexico (Yucatan)

I am not sure of the enforcement costs but I found this cbc story from a few months back quite telling. They found car lots filled with cars that still had their Canadian paperwork in the glovebox, and the authorities in Ghana claiming their Canadian counterparts ignored requests to stem this export/import of these types of cars into Ghana for their associated criminality.

The scarier thing is that they are designed to be less than six months to avoid federal loan regulations and are reported to credit agencies as some new kind of installment loan (I forget the exact term/acronym). Many lenders are refusing to lend to anyone who has even taken one out in the past 2-3 years since they are seen as such a high risk indicator.

It feels like everyone is ignoring your reference to apps like “Dave” that bombard me with ads to essentially payday lend me money if I have direct deposit.

I am pretty sure it is just generally ad sales fall in January a guide to avoid the dip
