The Toba catastrophe comes to mind, but that was around 70,000 years ago, I believe?

Finally, don’t blast music or have loud speakerphone/video chat conversations in this congested area. Nobody needs to know that much about you, whether it’s your family tea or your musical taste (or lack thereof).

Also, every eight year old has done this in a bathroom mirror in an attempt to try and look scary.

Your first sentence is reason enough why I will never live in an HOA neighborhood. That’s not the kind of community involvement I want in my life. I cannot imagine devoting any kind of time or energy to policing how the rest of the neighborhood looks/behaves. You could not pay me enough money to spend any amount of my…

In our more than 50 years of marriage, we have owned homes both in and out of HOAs. The last house we purchased, in 2012, will in fact be our last and we searched long and hard to find a house we liked with the features we needed/wanted but with no HOA.

To be fair, I’m an air traffic controller and I have no idea what you asked of chatGPT because it made zero sense.

I mean, the #1 red flag is, it’s an HOA contract.

I don’t know - Apple has tended theirs pretty well. The key - as with Apple - is to get your consumers to fight for you.

I’ve tried the traditional way, but most fathers react poorly when I offer them three goats and an acre of land for their daughters.

Weirdly, not all engineering skills are directly compatible with positions that are needed whereas marketing/finance/etc. is just widget management.

Every auto manufacturer in the world is directly protected by their governments through policies including currency manipulation, tax protection, tariffs, emerging technology loans, etc.

Well, if it makes you feel better, there are something like 25000 commercial flights a day in the USA, or around 9 million a year, while the study reported 300 near collisions in a 12 month period. So, these are still extremely rare occurrences. Of course, we should still be doing everything we can to address issues…

I was going to say...if there’s an air traffic controller shortage, how is that being addressed? It’s an important position so surely there’s a massive push to get people trained up involving lots of incentives right? Right?

Perhaps it’s time to actually improve the working conditions/pay to fill the empty positions ensuring that this doesn’t actually happen...

I assume like most people, if there was a $1.50 delivery/convenience fee and then tip, sure, that’s fine. But an $11 delivery fee on top of tip for a $13 plate of pasta from the place down the street seems insane.

Let it die.  Let it return to the way it SHOULD be - a restaurant delivering their own food, so they CARE about how their food is delivered.  

I would think that the pizza chains would be in a different situation because delivery was a part of their model all along (and there’s not quite as much of a premium on pizza delivery). A lot of people who would never think of getting a burger or a bucket of chicken delivered have been ordering pizza delivery for…

10 Reasons You Should Be Watching Foundation

Burying the subject from the headline by replacing the app name with “This App” tells me you don’t value what you have to contribute to the topic highly enough to warrant a read and therefore need to bait the subject to get people to open the article. If there’s value to be had in the piece beyond finding out what…

FYI, Grocery Outlet is a great place to buy some of the newer meatless products. They have a whole case full of various ones, all discounted. Only problem is, buy it when they have it, because you never know when they’ll get more, and check the expiration dates, sometimes they’re close. because they’re a closeout store…
