Except they'll fill the room with sycophantic bloggers and influencers who won't ask questions.

I have my first two visa applicants, a neighbor is going to the UK and a somewhat famous DJ is trying to get a visa to come to the US at the end of January for a tour... It will be interesting to see what their experience is.

Didn't even take 5-mins, I posted this separately

My kid wanted to do accounting specialising in forensic accounting. Her degree is no longer deemed professional and not eligible for student loans.

Don't think this is anything other than payback by the President and His administration. They want to force people into predatory lending.
Payday lenders gave Trump millions. Then he helped them cash in on the working poor.
The investment in Trump has continued paying off during the pandemic.

This is covered in Roberts rules, no, not those rules but the ridiculous, dangerous and stupid decision by the John Roberts court.

Everyone, is afraid of change. They think that change is something that happens to them, not for them. Adding lanes isn't change, despite the fact it will likely disrupt their drive for months or years. Removing loads of traffic by adding a bike lane is change because they might have to change

You know who I really hate in this picture?

Mike Johnson. He enabled and let all this happen. Look at him, desperate to be an insider, grinning like a little kid who thinks he's important now... They have his number and he is going nowhere.

Fascinating. I assume the weight of the rider/bike impacts wear somewhat but I'm guessing it's still way more mileage per tire than for a car?

I live in Colorado and winter tires are a must, but for my car they are terrible value for local about town driving.

While in New Orleans French Quarter, I took the back staircase at the Cabildo Museum and found myself outside a room with National Guardsmen using facial recognition (red squares around faces) on multiple TV screens.

It really spooked me.

I've always wondered what the mileage is like on bike winter tires, do you plan to track it?

The 20-million isn't credible, and the 12-million comes from Pew Research which is at least credible.

And his evidence for this claim?

It's worse than that really they are forcing kids into the hands of predatory lenders. I'm sure if I looked through the people who've donated bigly to Tr$mp you'd find payday lenders and other scumbags.

You can get them stupidly cheap now, provided you are willing to put up with public hatred, a car that might lock you inside and then explode, or worse just fall apart as you drive down the highway, they are a great deal...

My first big success was to virtualize the credit card transaction system of a NYC bank in 1983 and do it in 4MB increasing total RAM to 12MB giving us enough to bring up a small test system on the same processor.

You can't even load a USB driver for that on a PC.

Nah you really shouldn't -cunts are great they bring is pleasure, life and every one is unique, ask me. They are also amazingly constructed and self managing. There is nothing clever about using women's body parts as a slur.
