    In NY nobody picks people up from the airport. It would be the rudest imposition to ask or expect it. I’d sooner ask someone to shovel my driveway. When my ex girlfriend’s dad and his wife would visit from Romania, I’d send them a black car, but there’s no way I’d pick them up.

    Isn't that what they did? Charge you USD$30 for 7 hours of idle? About USD$4.28/hour. Sorry you have have a bad experience with EV. When I have had one, I have had a pretty good experience.

    Interesting. It will be intriguing to see (perhaps by heat map) over time how each category has trended, too. Thanks for posting these.

    @Klaus said in Life Under the Taliban: If a man can never look at or talk to a woman, how do they ever find a partner? Arranged marriages. Family A has a son, family B has a daughter. They match up "socio-economically". Money is passed, marriage is arranged. The bride and groom have almost no say in the situation. And yes, often-times, the first time the groom will actually "see" the bride is AFTER they are married.

    We’re about to enter into a golden age of computer games. Everybody with a good idea will be able to build a game around it, no artists or programmers required. I wonder wha big game studios will bring to the table other than interference from the marketing department.

    Do it now. On the other hand, a new belt caused the situation you are in.

    Mine was as well when she was 12. Luckily I was monitoring all her internet use. He and I had a frank and open discussion about his prospects should his name ever crop up again. Then I turned him in to the sheriff.

    @jon-nyc said in The Andrew formerly known as Prince was arrested: I did come up with it independently but immediately thought it must have been used many times as it’s so obvious. The same thing happened to me with Il Douche when Trump was first elected. I was so pleased with myself....

    Thanks again! The knee is progressing nicely. Still swollen and shrinking slower than I thought it would. I have full range of motion and even broke/shattered the record of the PT facility for bend and hypertension angles.

    Well darn, I should've listened to myself. Both were over 3,000% up since late 2024! Now down to just 2,000% up, wow. Nice job! The closest I could find to my reference of quantum is here btw... the timing lines up but I was not smart enough to think about stocks. https://nodebb.the-new-coffee-room.club/post/305940
