@TimKennedyMMA I lived there for 30 years. Some years ago I innocently pulled out my driver's license when going to vote. Assuming I had to show some form of ID. And was yelled at. Admonished for even attempting to show it. I was dressed down about the rules requiring "I not show it"!

So just for clarity sake… can every American book a flight to Los Angeles to vote because they aren’t allowed to check IDs there?

I'm in the Phillipines and am CERTAIN this is true. Everyone here knows if you speak against the government online you can get in real trouble. Live in any country with gun control. You aren't given "rights". Your given whatever is convenient to the government. Until it's not. And they will be taken away.

@MeatEaterTV For the record I mean packing out "other people's" trash. As much as your comfortable with. I assume all of us pack out our own trash.

I guess I just assumed all good hunters do this. If not, we should start a movement. Even if it's just always carrying a small trash bag. And taking what you can with you. It doesn't have to mean packing out pounds of trash. Just some. Whatever your comfortable with. And encouraging others to do so.

I don't have much sympathy for alcoholics. If you have one DWI you're an alcoholic. If you have two you're a criminal. And you're still an alcoholic. Yes. It's a disease. But it's still your responsibility to treat your own disease. You risk killing people by not treating this one - and choosing to drive. I see the point you're trying to make. The state seizing property is not something we want. But in this case it's the actual tool you've chosen to very likely harm or kill someone with. While continuing to risk other's lives by not treating your illness and choosing to drive. Should felons who use firesarms in their crimes or drunk drivers have their driving or firearm rights taken away forever? Perhaps not. That's a severity and number of convictions issue. But should they lose the firearm or vehicle used in the commission of the crime? Probably so.

In my view, this is wrong. Two DWI's and the state steals his property to use in parades? What do you think?

How old were these children? And how much similar discipline have they learned from their parents up to this point in their life? I hate these studies that put blind faith into one possible reason for an outcome. I can show you a dozen different children from a dozen different family situations. With a dozen different levels of similar discipline. Some may have learned excellent table manners and might have developed a high level of compliance for what they are told to do by an adult. Others might seem feral.

The debunk of the 2 Marshmallow Test has been debunked & most people don’t cite these studies correctly. What the actual experiment was & data ultimately show. The takeaway: ability to delay gratification is on a continuum & yes it is predictive of (certain aspects of) success.

This is definitely a win. But if you've ever visited a big city like Los Angeles' USPS facilities. Or used them. That is the last institution you would allow to safe keep your firearm. USPS employees in LA are continually getting busted stealing mail. I've had numerous packages stolen. Including gun parts. With no accountability or even concern by local USPS managers. (Who iirc also got busted for stealing packages.) I can't speak for the entire nation. But LA is like an outlaw outpost that goes on for miles. Thankfully I don't live there anymore. What do you think is going to happen to firearms?! I would not trust the USPS with a dirt clog.

IIRC you're in California yes? I left a year ago. But I have to say I paid like $75 a month for really good health insurance. I still pay my son's which is $50(!). I hear this complaint all the time. But 15 years ago (I lived in CA 30 years) I was paying $750 a month for a family of 3. And for a short time $2500 a month for a premium plan that covered two expensive back surgeries I needed. The ONLY thing I miss about CA was the cheap health insurance. Everything else went to hell in a hand basket.

Of all the places government intervention has made things worse, health insurance is by far the worstest. And if you're self-employed...ooof

@APompliano I believe it's simpler that. Most people don't research or try anything new themselves. Instead they rely entirely on the opinions of others.

I keep seeing survey data about how much people hate AI. It may be counterintuitive, but this is a very positive sign for the AI industry. In order to understand why, you have to realize that a portion of the population has built a fake religion around opposing any form of progress. They hate capitalism. They hate free speech. They hate Amazon, Google, Facebook, and the litany of other companies that have drastically improved our lives. So when these people report hating AI, they are actually telling on themselves. They are implicitly admitting that AI is valuable and will create enormous economic prosperity in the world. Because AI will do this, it has to be opposed by the people who have tied their identify to anti-progress and anti-innovation. The wrong conclusion to take from these surveys would be “AI is going to run into too much opposition.” Instead, you should gain confidence that the free market is going to adopt the best technology. And that technology is very clearly artificial intelligence now.

I went and did it. My curiosity got the best of me. I finally ordered a @McDonalds Big Arch today. Short take: Looks fancy, tastes bland and is not better than the Big Mac (which isn't great either). It's my first and last one.

I "lived" in CA, and held an FFL01, for 30 years. This is EXACTLY the playbook in CA. Incremental hurdles to gun ownership. That stack up over time. With the obvious goal of a ban. Not safety. The last time I bought a pistol in CA it took multiple days, of many hours, driving to and from and standing in a gun store, trying to fight thru the bureaucracy. Multiple weeks, multiple hours standing at each visit. And it's worse for the gun stores than the buyers. To the point there are very few left. Meaning long wait times, limited stock, very few take online transfers, if you can even find an online company willing to wade thru their own hurdles set up my CA. Which means prices are high. Availability is limited. It's an attempt to ban. Period.

This is the goal in the US too. If the Democrats can get rid of gun stores, then all new gun sales end due to the GCA of 1968. All the silly hoops you have to jump through to buy a gun is not for "safety", it's gun owner harassment intended to dissuade you from buying a gun.

Different rules for "elite" congressmen trading stocks. Than the rest of us. (Assuming this information was not trackable back to the source by our enemies. Meaning this was most likely an anonymous bet. He didn't actually share classified information. Potentially tipping off anyone.)

@the_autopian It's a Suzuki Jimny. And a Suzuki Jimmy with the back cut off to make it a truck. Inf fact someone's already done that in YouTube. It also costs less and has generally been the same design since 1968.

@MrColionNoir Do it in the morning before you get out of bed. I'm not awake yet anyway. And I tend to take my time. Taking your time stretching is at the same time essential and the frustrating part.
