Fracking is just a bad idea all around, with all the water shortages around the country we don't need to be polluting the water we have. It could maybe be done safely to a certain extent, but there will never be enough oversight to ensure that.

This is going to be the sort of thing if you use it four or five times your skin melts off.

Changing stuff and seeing what happens. If you change two things the universe will let the problem be fixed, because that leaves you uncertain which thing fixed the problem.

Verizon has been trying Fios for decades now and I think I know one person that has it. Verizon is already a very very difficult company to deal with. Them buying Frontier will only make things worse.

Companies should not be allowed to acquire other companies if callers are on hold more than 5 minutes when trying to speak to a person at the acquiring company.

That ridiculous, Trump is the best useful idiot he has. If Putin is saying he prefers Harris it's only to take advantage of his infamous status and get people not to vote for Harris.

I'll vote for him if he starts doing a Scottish accent exclusively.

Conservatives have changed, they are way more extreme now and don't hide their prejudices.

So the iPhones can't have buttons but the cases can? That's just buttons with extra steps.

People call RDR2 a masterpiece and yes it's very beautiful and very detailed. But the gameplay systems and controls don't really feel quite right to me, and I feel the same the same way about Star Wars Outlaws. Plus to me the games just feel similar when you're wandering around big wide open areas.

Same. It took me a bit to get the settings how Iiked them and figure out the gameplay loop. But now I think it is similar to Red Dead 2 or a Ghost Recon game. And it's set on gorgeous Star Wars maps.

In addition to the advice already given, I would suggest you look at mental attractiveness as well as physical attractiveness. Physical attractiveness can be a ton of fun but then when you actually start living with the person if they aren't mentally attractive/compatible with your personality then they can be really hard to live with. Look for someone genuine and kind and into the same sort of things you are.

What is there to talk about? The employees can't tell them anything that they don't already know if they can read the posted hours.

This data will probably only lead to more live service games. :|

The Ukranian guy in this article didn't like spending $400 a month on fuel for his Jeep. So he spent $53,000 getting a wrecked Tesla imported and fixed, so he could pay about $50 a month to charge the Tesla.

Now he just has to drive the Tesla for 12 years to break even on fuel costs. Good move. :|

Valet parking seems to be getting more common at some city locations that don't have a good parking situation.

How do you feel about valet parking? Doesn't bother you in the least, will do it if you have to, will never do it, something else?

Personally I don't like some random person driving my car.

I've never smoked, but I've been around people that do. What do people feel during/after smoking? It doesn't seem to make people high or hallucinate or anything. It maybe mildly relaxes them?

Car manufacturers could comply with the law “by using short-range wireless protocols, such as via Bluetooth,” to give owners or independent shops authorized by owners access to the information they need to diagnose issues with and repair vehicles, the letter says.

Hopefully no manufacturers are allowing changes to the vehicle wirelessly. It should be read-only.

Sound clip is pretty creepy.

Like ants nesting on a river bank, some only live a few days. A colony could live for many ant generations on a riverbank but when a big flood comes their entire world is wiped out.
