⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cheese is available⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Many times our grocery stores are bars. Quite a few of our grocery stores have bars in them. That was really strange when I moved here.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's a no⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Nah, I’m just being a butt head.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's a no⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
You said it couldn’t be done, you didn’t specify a need for it being safely done.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's a no⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
You could reduce the gap between the cars by ~half.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's a no⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Lane filtering should be legal everywhere. Like you said, motorcycles accelerate quicker but also it removes the chance of them getting rear ended.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's a no⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Because it’s counterintuitive. You would think that getting people over early means traffic can just flow easier.

What are you talking about?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨References: [1] out of his ass⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Got’em
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When traffic comes to a standstill, drivers instantly shift left and right to create a Rettungsgasse, an emergency corridor right down the middle, so ambulances⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Might be legal if you’re on a motorcycle. If it isn’t, it should be. No reason to not allow lane filtering.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But they have great personalities⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
The word gig is far older than the term “gig economy”. But I’m also sure strippers have been around a lot longer than even that.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First the frogs turned gay and now this⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
If you take a minute to think about it, of course hunters would be interested in preservation. They want a place to hunt and things to hunt. There will always also be the douchebag manosphere style people that just want the biggest sport kill.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Miss me⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
I think that’s actually a pretty neat trick. So long as not winning doesn’t feel even more crushing.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some folks might call me a dreamer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
You have to celebrate the wins.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨School of hard knocks⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Today that’s next to impossible. Comp Sci students are struggling to even find internships. I was listening to a podcast interviewing a student that applied to over 90 internships, only got 2 interviews, and no callbacks. It’s probably the worst time to try to get into tech right now.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨America⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
That’s nothing compared to 5 minutes in a Japanese anime.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Title⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
But most of me Star Trek is shit. I’m a Trek fan, but the post JJ era has been mostly bad.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Keeping it classy for my 1000th post⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
It is to mayonnaise like margarine is to butter. An inferior imposter.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some things were better in the good old days⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
It won’t pass modern energy standards.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Emissions go brrrr⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
With the amount I drive, the 120v charger would be more than enough. But, I work from home…
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Triangle⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
That’s not why she died. She died because she was incompetent. She was a bad pilot and after a crash the man that was the radio expert quit. She didn’t know how to work the radios and broadcasted to listen on a channel that her radio couldn’t use, she didn’t know how to use the trailing antenna that could have saved them so she had it removed, etc…
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump in 2029 after removing the 22nd Amendment, watching Obama run again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
I’m not validating anything. Just clearing up the confusion. You two were talking past each other. But now that you realize you were mistaken you’ve decided to attack me.

his first term would count as more than two consecutive terms.

Sure, but if we’re really splitting hairs it wouldn’t be more than two consecutive terms until after he has served his second consecutive term to completion. Otherwise it’s just a consecutive partial term.

Ultimately like you said it’s all stupid and obviously not how it is written.

No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice

Consecutive isn’t even mentioned in the text. There really isn’t even wiggle room for interpretation.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump in 2029 after removing the 22nd Amendment, watching Obama run again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
You’re missing their point. More is ambiguous in that sentence. It can be defined as consecutive like you have, or it can be defined as anything more than two consecutive terms. Since Obama has had two consecutive terms, any term now would be beyond two consecutive terms even though that term itself is not consecutive.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Red, White and Blue⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
It’s not even an assumption at that point. You have evidence for your claim.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Red, White and Blue⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
You’re correct

Contrary to an urban legend, the flag code does not state that a flag that touches the ground should be burned. Instead, the flag should be moved so it is not touching the ground.

I guess just if it gets tattered you’re supposed to dispose of it properly.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Red, White and Blue⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Exactly. That’s kind of the difference between being patriotic and nationalistic.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Red, White and Blue⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
The burning after it touches the ground is actually what you’re supposed to do according to the flag code.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Red, White and Blue⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Flag burning isn’t against the flag code. Flexing your 1st amendment is definitely patriotic.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Red, White and Blue⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
No. It’s against flag code, but there is no real law or enforcement of the flag code. If you do break it, I will immediately assume you are not a patriot and instead you are a nationalist because you didn’t take the ~5 minutes to look up the flag code.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Interview: Mary Wiseman On Tilly Settling In As A ‘Starfleet Academy’ Teacher And Dealing With Toxic Fans⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Nah, I can be mad at the toxic people and the people over reacting. Both are too extreme reactions to each other.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Interview: Mary Wiseman On Tilly Settling In As A ‘Starfleet Academy’ Teacher And Dealing With Toxic Fans⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
I would accept obnoxious. I don’t think it is obnoxious to add a comment to a forum, but I understand that viewpoint. I just think it’s a far way from toxic.
