For urban areas where it could potentially work, corruption; classism; NIMBY; poor education about taxes, their uses, and their benefits; and selfishness.
For inter-city, some of the above but also getting the property on which to do it seems to be a huge pain in the ass when looking at projects in Cali or proposals for others such as Texas.
I do better with light-based over-stimulation than I did in my early 20s, but I have a lot more trouble with sounds. There’s a retailer here in Japan that has its store music (loud), various TVs and other devices playing separate ads at the same time at high volume, and just people noise that leads to a cacophony that triggers my fight-or-flight. I can’t go in there for long without noise-cancelling headphones. My brain I think tries to listen to everything at once and can’t separate things out leading to issues; I hear them all so I can’t listen to or discern any one of them (which is a more general issue I have that gets worse as I get older trying to hear people over any background noise).
Yup! I grill corn when it’s in season, mushrooms, and make foil packets with potatoes, peppers, onions, and garlic and grill those as well. Also works great for making baked potatoes.
Yeah, Google, Meta, Amazon, and probably others really need to get broken up and get proper antitrust treatment. I say this even as someone who holds stock (like a total of 5 shares, so not much) in a couple of those. I used to dream of working at Google as well, but that dream died quite some time ago based on their actions and culture.
Would you like fries with that for only a dollar more?
Better results
That’s not generally my experience. I still try DDG first, but probably 20-25% of the time, I have to switch back to Google. Oddly, not for the stuff in Japanese or related to Japan, but more tech and other such.
Neither? I am more wary after the launch of 6 and the issues, but I also say ‘neither’ because I’m simply not in the market for a new device.
There’s a tourist exemption, but the knives have to be packaged and legally can’t be opened.
Arrest and jail each one. Don’t make death threats at people.
I moved to Japan where knives are also heavily restricted. If you live in Japan, you need a permit to purchase anything with a fixed blade over 15cm and it must be kept in the home. You can’t legally carry a pocket knife with a blade longer than 6cm (I think 8cm if it’s a folding but not fixed blade) and even then, if stopped, you need to have a specific reason for carrying it around.
It was really weird to me, as someone who carried a pocket knife basically everywhere. I did learn, though, that “in case I need to open boxes” is a case that has come up like twice in 10 years.
As for guns here, handguns are not allowed at all. There are licenses for airguns (pellet guns), rifles, and shotguns. Separately, there are licenses for trapping and hunting that do grant some permissions outside of what I wrote above (hunting/trapping license but no gun license means you’re going to be killing your catch with knife, spear, strangulation, drowning, or electrocution).
My main sim is a normal sim. When I travel, I get an esim for that country. My current provider doesn’t so esim or I might consider the opposite
killing ab blockers
I might finally get a six-pack!
As someone who started in tech support in 2000 and is a software developer now: absolutely not.
All I see in the thumbnail is delicious, forbidden makizushi
I no longer live in the US in part for reasons I wouldn’t have a child there.
Because of many of those, I left. The secondary reasons for not having my own biological kids are some medical issues I have and, by the time I was stable enough, I was already coming into my 40s. I had considered adoption, but ultimately decided not to do that, either.
Nice! Thank you!
I will learn to build a mouse and write my own damn drivers first.
One was a military base and entering one part of a big open yard would open several doors with zombies aggro’d to the player. Another was the tier 5 prison that had several spawn triggers. However, before the trigger, no zombies were spawned in so they couldn’t just be picked off. I never saw a visible trigger anywhere in my playthroughs.
I had tons of hours in it. In either a19 or a20, they added these dumb triggers that just spawn an entire world of zombies or open a set of doors with the zombies aggro’d to the player already effectively killing stealth. Worse, there’s no way to know about any of this until you’re in the POI and getting obliterated. I haven’t touched the game since them and was quite angry.
Japan is slowly getting better, but it’s a long road ahead. There are more laws and they’re actually enforcing some of them with regard to harassment and hours worked (a lot of people would clock out and keep working, but they’re trying to make the penalties bit enough to stop it from what I hear. My company is certainly strict about it).
It’d be nice to have european-level vacations before I retire, but that I don’t see happening
