One of those side effects of having built the country incorrectly but the property tax situation isn't favorable to the working class. Compare the per-acre property taxes of houses in an area and the box stores with 20 acres of parking (81000 sq meters). Tax assessors have things backwards.

Fahrenheit does have a wider range of whole numbers to express the temperatures in our daily climate. Unfortunately the digital thermostats I had for years, even one in Shanghai, would step in 0.5 deg increments regardless of it being in F or C. I assume it was using K internally throughout the system, so keeping it in F meant more granularity (68, 68.5, 69 being more specific temps than 20, 20.5, 21 could dial in). And it was noticeable enough to where I'd keep it in F (except one time when I was sick and wanted in between the two possible F setpoints).

Now do all the drug "offenders"... I am glad he got released somehow. Sucks the DOJ stole the 3B$ in buttcoin that was recovered which had been stolen from Silk Road. He "only" owed 180M.

There is a replacement in waiting for the worst eventuality.

  • the "non-aggression principle" is the only ideologically consistent mode of politics. Hmmm, envihermental pollution? Never heard of her!
  • Human contribution to climate change, if it is happening at all, is negligible. It's very convenient!
  • absent government involvement in the design of computer networks we'd have naturally seen decentralized platforms from day one rather than large websites for information harvesting and propaganda.
  • the only function of the state is military defense and maybe courts if I'm feeling it
  • age of consent
