Is there a judiciary that determines whether the mob was within their rights to light your restaurant on fire, and can stop the mob from lighting the restaurant on fire? Even if you think the FCC is just an extension of trump(fair) at this

The 1990s famine, if you want to call if that, is also sometimes described as a series of famines. Here's more details about the aid I'm referring to. 700,000 tonnes in 1999 alone, from one country. https://sgp.fas.org&

If you look at the graph, life expectancy didn't really diverge until the 90s, 40 years after the bombing campaign. And, any way, the North Koreans started it.

I'm glad you're getting healthier, but what are the odds that all of your theories have any basis in reality, after spending , I'm guessing, years or decades living an unhealthy lifestyle. Like, do you really think your tongu

By "a period in the nineties", you mean "since the nineties", right? So basically for the past 35 years North Korea has been heavily lagging in life expectancy. Another way to put that is it's been 75 years since Ko

Waste of space: Not really? The plot of land the building is on is ~ 1/3rd of an acre. Immediately adjacent to it are multiple street level-only parking lots that have a larger footprint. I guess providing parking to 60 cars is more us

I thought with the rollout of STIR/SHAKEN it wouldn't be possible to spoof called ID anymore?

Shouldn't it be up for grabs then? According to the logic of "you don't call retarded people retarded. You call your friends retarded when they're acting retarded."

I don't accept that premise. I've certainly downloaded things that I also considered buying, but just didn't because of some small hurdle.

My guess by family of 4 you mean two young adult children, which will significantly increase your rates, especially if they are male.

He would still be rich, but not as crazy rich. And if he did want to return money to the share holders, it would come at the cost of reducing reinvestment into the company, probably lessening their moat.

Well, if you connected to my service I can probably geolocate you. Or I can use a SSID=>lat/lon database to find where your wifi is assuming you have a unique name for your Wi-Fi network. Then I can go there and connect a laptop it

Why is it a given that "managerial incompetence" is what caused the demise of The Messenger? Maybe the vision was just wrong. Maybe the journos never produced any compelling content. And when the author writes things like > The

I have a foolproof plan to deplete the wealth of the American oligarchs: stop coveting what they have. Bezos is super rich not because he has a huge pile of cash, but because he owns a slice of Amazon. If people just refused to buy his stoc

It's possible for starlink to beat radio, because radio can't always go straight to the target. If I wanted a radio link from NY->Tokyo, what would that path look like?
