A lot of Americans live in houses and neighborhoods where keeping chickens is simply not allowed. Source: just got done cutting some pine trees on a hill behind my house because we got a notice. They will absolutely throw a fit, if we kept

It would affect people who were not allowed to work because their company was not sure if they are allowed to work in New Zealand. At individuals level sure, this is going to have little to no effect. But - lot of people need their employer

Magnus may be better player than Gukesh, but the reason he is not defending WC title is not because Gukesh or any opponent is not good enough, but because it takes too much freaking preparation to defend WC title and he doesn't think i

I was thinking about this and one way of thinking is what u said. We already allow sale of spaceships which have non-zero failure rate. So we don't necessarily need zero failure rate self driving. But a problem with cars is, usually ur

I would say it is getting harder. Walmart for example I think has switched to largely self-checkout with some helpers thrown in. Other stores where had more than 3 or 4 human manned lanes, now have just 1 most of the time.

Same goes for almost all grocery shops here - Publix, Kroger, target etc replacing checkout with self-checkout kiosks completely. I absolute hate using self-checkout for non-packaged groceries items. Especially if I have lots of stuff. Frea

I know there is lot of gripe about the display not being 4k, but I personally love 2560x1600 on 16inch monitors. In Linux I can run this without any fractional scaling at 100% resolution. To account for small text, I can change font size by

Even though sometimes using Paypal causes me to lose "reward" points, I do use quite a bit. For things like annual domain renewal - it is a life saver. I have had my domain expire far too many times with Credit Cards.

I work on container stuff, so may be my POV is bit different but: 1. I had hard time fighting openssl installed by Homebrew and getting Python to use it. On Linux - this is never an issue. In general IMO using homebrew is fairly tedious. 2.

Yeah I think sand is used to control the heat distribution, which is hard to do when you are cooking over fire from wood or something similar.

Lol - you are not alone. Netflix has weird stuff and in a good way. Ironically - some of their biggest/big name shows are also some of the worst (I am looking at Witcher series), but as a sci-fi fan, Netflix is pretty good.
