As much as I want one too, there’s a reason they aren’t sold in the US.

They weren’t built to survive high speed collisions with large vehicles.

If you really want one, the best option is to import >25 years old as that’s when they become street legal.

Because most people don’t expect border security to demand access to their phone?

FYI the phrase is “burying the lede”.

It kind of existed when Google included a link to every site’s cached content, but they removed that years ago.

“Blast” in an article title is a pretty good indicator that it’s just bait for people who are already outraged about something.

Like, yeah, this shit disgusts me, but I doubt someone “blasting” Trump is gonna do anything about it.

You don’t get severance when you quit.

Severance is usually worse if you wait to get fired rather than taking a voluntary exit.

If you aren’t happy at a job, taking an offered exit is often a good decision.

What the fuck is wrong with you

Either grow up or become less of shitstain

Yeah I’ve had that happen, too.

Still my first method because it works most of the time.

Also just press random keys that aren’t in the list of options it gives you.

Heck, I’ll let you not use windows for $49.

Isn’t the free market great?

… horses… for courses…?

Literally never heard this phrase before, but it seems very similar to “different strokes for different folks.”

It doesn’t make any sense to me but I kind of love it.

You don’t have to save it to a file but I often do.

Economists love toll systems because they’re essentially a use-tax: drive more, pay more.

Unfortunately, they’re also a regressive tax. Poor people generally drive more because they can’t afford to live near their work/school/etc. So, the additional tax revenue is mostly extracted from the people who are the least capable of changing their behavior and have the least disposable income.

3rd sentence of the article:

Indicted on three counts involving money laundering and wire fraud, the Charlotte-area man faces a maximum of 20 years per charge.

If you follow the article to the press release:

SMITH, 52, of Cornelius, North Carolina, is charged with wire fraud conspiracy, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison; wire fraud, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison; and money laundering conspiracy, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.

Oh I stand corrected. Nice find!

I don’t think they are, but definitely reminiscent.
