In my area, I'd take advantage of the sticker on my car to drive into one of the military bases around the area; that both peels them off my tail and gives me a choice of alternate gates to leave by where they can't see which exit I choose.

Just to ease my tooth-grinding, I need to point out that an ordinance is a local law; ordnance (no 'i') are military supplies.

This.

Run, do not walk, to the nearest bookstore or Amazon, purchase a copy of Vinge's Rainbow's End, and read it. Then, for an additional look at what ubiquitous access to data would provide, purchase and read A Fire Upon the Deep (and its sequel, Children of the Sky, and possibly its sort-of-prequel A Deepness in the Sky).

I think "None of the Above is Acceptable", from L. Neil Smith's The Probability Broach, should be up there, too.

Look at the prices for the Wacom Cintiq, which does just what you're describing — present a touchscreen display as an input surface. Then think about how much area on your screen disappears when the virtual keyboard is displayed, and how much tactile feedback the screen gives you to tell you when you've positioned…

Also, if you cut it correctly to fit the bottom of the pan, when you press it in, use a fingernail to mark where the 'break' at the side of the pan is, then take the paper out, crease it at the marks, and put it back. This makes it hug the bottom and sides properly, so you don't have the problem.

I only managed ten years on my Civic FE before it was stolen... with the universe throwing one last laugh at me when I come out to go to work on April Fool's Day to find a black Civic CRX parked where I'd parked my Civic FE the previous night. I spent several minutes trying to think of anyone I knew who drove a CRX…

"If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament."

Republic credits? Republic credits are no good out here. I need something more real.

Reminds me of the gag I've so far been too lazy to set up — go to the bank and get a sheaf of $2 bills (if you only want a few, the cashier has to buy an entire sheaf for their tray, and it leaves them with a pile of twos in their drawer they can't get rid of, so an entire sheaf — 100 bills — doesn't inconvenience…

You cannot fault the child; they have had no part in creating the situation...

Also, the thorny issue of miscarriages — my sister was born in Virginia, and on her birth certificate is a box labeled 'Fetal Deaths' with the number '3' typed in it. If a zygote has full human rights from the moment of conception, then wouldn't it be necessary to conduct a police investigation of every miscarriage to…

Equally to the point — Amendment 13: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction." If a zygote has full human rights from the moment of conception, then…

ORLY?

Right... because the fuel for power plants does magically appear out of nowhere at the power plants...

Like these (more illustrations here and here), and there is an artist selling full-color prints of artwork painted from the diagrams of the razzle-dazzle camouflage

Ahh, the Hanomag mittlerer Schützenpanzerwagen SdKfz 251A...

You missed Marion Morrison the movie idol, as well as the commentator Voltaire Malaise... "At least that's the way it looks, Tuesday, February twenty-third, 223 A.L. This is Voltaire Malaise, Cerese Central, good night."

Perhaps, but that styling extends across a wide variety of cars; to be iconically German, you need one that embodies design elements you don't find in other countries, like the Daimler-Benz G4 staff car, a favorite of Hitler.
