This was a survey given to adults about adults (and likely by adults, too)

It's true that it would do nothing for someone who deliberately breaks the law but, especially when it comes to the elderly, poor vision and reaction time is a big factor in driving ability - both would be obvious during a practical exam.

But changing traffic laws isn't what makes people bad drivers.

Everyone should have to take the written AND driving portion of the test every 10 years or so.

Wow, you weren't kidding.

Great way to get me to hit the back button and never go to that site again. A shame because I did want to read it

Lol I went down that olive rabbit hole once during covid. So much more work than I thought

That might explain why I only ever get the texture from olives on pizza...which is....actually still ok with me. Flavorless for sure but yum olive texture

He also said he doesn't believe the first diagnosis because the doctor is Jewish

I have never been a fan but I feel like it's a lot deeper than just craving attention. The dude has serious unchecked mental problems.

Figuring out 1-4 must have been sooo tough

I'm straight but...Mamdani is kinda hot??

Hold Home and Screenshot until it turns on and starts flashing then pair it on your phone

Punk With A Camera still sells their unique design ;)

You're right about that, I was moreso saying that his crappy browser tier list isn't worth sharing

Just because PewDiePie switched to Linux doesn't mean we should listen to his browser recommendations

This is such an online comment, man. You could have taken 5 seconds to check if the election you clearly aren't invested in happened yet but instead, you invented a result to get mad about

I bought a condo in 2009/2010 and the market is way crazier now. Back then it felt very...human? This time around, the whole process selfish and greedy with everyone trying to take advantage of you on both sides.

Oh also worth noting that housing is a different kind of beast in the way it "handles" supply and demand. If you can't afford to buy, you can still rent. Banks will lend as much as possible because don't care if prices get crazy - they benefit more than a single homeowner. And if they have to foreclose on you? Well, just add it to the bank portfolio and rent it out

Yeah, it's just a weird period where things haven't caught up and there's nothing any authority could do to force it to catch up

That said, don't expect prices to go down much. Outside of a total market crash, prices always rise

There's not much to "fix" unfortunately. We just got out of a really hot real estate market with people routinely offering 50k over asking. Everyone who needed to move likey did so but sellers who were late to the party still expect to get those crazy offers.

But people don't buy when there's a recession on the way and these sellers are stuck. Soon, "investors" will realize they were late to the party and they'll panic sell before it loses more value.

And because we're in a recession, banks will buy the houses and rent will go up
