So how much money did you make on it?

Noone will take your prediction seriously until you put your actual money on the line.

You’ll probably manage just fine in a city.

Living in rural areas mass transit quickly becomes madness. Schedules are infrequent and routes are weird, and if you make them frequent and direct you suddenly drive around an empty bus while still building the exact same road you would for the few cars.

US sees China as it’s main rival, Russia as Europes headache. Iran, Venezuela, Nkorea, cuba as minor annoyances that support China.

Worst case Denies China cheap oil imports for a while when both Iran and Russia are too weak to do anything. Also denies Russia some war materials. Best case scenario the protests reignite and replaces the regime with something less US hostile.

US sees Israel as the most reliable ally in the region, because all their neighbours hate them and they must stick with the US. A strong Israel lets US dictate much of what goes on in the middle east.

What can they do? US is a net exporter of crude since they figured out fracking.

Police Station 100m away. I’d encourage a few more to move in. They do serve and protect where I live.

You sir (and/or madam) made me laugh out loud.

Can I save 8. until I’m old and frail and swap with someone younger?

Time to change hobby from gaming to shooting.

It’s probably not possible to break into them for regular law enforcement.

Give Trumps phone to the Chinese or vice versa and they will probably manage something.

Technically, if he is convinced then it’s convincing evidence. The fact that you and I are not convinced is a separate matter.

What is a reasonable person?

A 100% rational person? Probably not. A person who was smart enough to do well in school and keep a well paying job? Yes.

There is one village in Nigeria where the men and women speak different languages. Not sure if that is a satisfactory answer.

Your mind is a powerful thing. I’m not saying what you experience is not real, in fact you never experience anything without it being through your mind. It’s a shame we’re not given the operating manual for our minds at birth.

Does it happen on weekends or days when you don’t have to go out too?

And for what it’s worth your eyes look good at least.

The worst thing you’ll run into is another depressed puddle. Can’t be too bad unless you’re something like a reckless driver because nothing matters.

If society was only copies of this person, would it be better or worse to live in than current society?

Phone wins when (Watch time) < ( time spent to get it on big screen).

My chili recepie has beans in it, otherwise it’s not chili in my book. Anyway you did not invite me to eat it so I don’t really have any right to complain.

I’d add onion, paprika, and garlic to your mix.

Very different choices in life. I was good at school they were average-ish. They got kids [citation needed], I did not. Over all as good or better. Country intentionally left vague as Northern Europe.

When the price goes up it’s because the renewables don’t produce power when there is no wind and sun (which pretty much sums up January here). Building more of something that does not produce power is not going to help with the price shocks.

We need to figure out grid scale storage, fusion or build nuclear power to get rid of fossil fuels. Until then utility bills will be occasionally more shocking than jamming a fork in the outlet.

My advice is not to try to make him mean.

If you want him to protect your home you can train him to bark at strangers when at home.

Yes, improperly on qwerty before I switched to (a cursed subvariant of) dvorak. Now I do it with proper form.
