Re: Anyone in Seattle?

Well, you're right, affordable and family friendly are opposites in the city. You could actually argue that affordable doesn't exist at all right now.

Traffic is terrible and getting worse, so...

Re: Republicans melt down

They are really going after Gaetz now.
“He bragged about how he would crush E.D. medicine and chase it with energy drinks so he could go all night." said Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Oklahoma)

Re: Republicans melt down

It's all dumb The far right Republicans had enough leverage on McCarthy that they could have had a lot of their policies go through. They wasted it on trying to shut down the government for no real...

Re: Parking Laws Are Strangling America

It sounds like an odd mix to have a store like Walmart at a regular indoor mall. I always thought of a shopping mall as having a load of specialist shops and department stores. A...

Re: US Taxes introduced 2-step authentication

There is also freetaxusa, which is more like the sold tax packages in style. It bugs you every now and then to pay for upgrades, but you don't have to, you still get all of the big functions for free.

Re: WTF in America

Ever seen those videos where the guy is just lying unconscious on the ground while the police yell "stop resisting" and try to break his arm while cuffing him? Or where there are multiple cops...

Re: Moving to America and very worried.

Apart from a little light mocking over the Revolutionary war, British food being bland/bad, and dental reputation, I've not experienced any anti-British sentiment at all.

Re: Mid-terms - hold my nose and tick the box?

The "close race" was a complete blowout, with the Republican losing by 14%. I know the media like to pretend that things are closer than they are, but the pollsters putting a race at 1% difference...

Re: Mid-terms - hold my nose and tick the box?

Filled mine in and sent it off. The primary process produced two oddities for my district this time - two Republicans up for the same seat, and two well-qualified candidates up for a big seat (not...

Re: Mid-terms - hold my nose and tick the box?

They both suck, but don't let that overshadow that one sucks ten times worse than the other.

Re: Mid-terms - hold my nose and tick the box?

If the single-transferable vote system is used, we could vote more confidently for someone who represents our values without worrying about splitting the vote between two candidates for the same...

Re: Mid-terms - hold my nose and tick the box?

Patty Murray's opponent is just ridiculous, so it is easy to vote for Murray this year. Tiffany Smiley has almost no policies on anything, she keeps going on about local crime while running for...

Re: Cost of Hot Tub... estimate??

Don't forget to factor in electrical costs. I hear they take about $40 per month even when they aren't being used. Some people practically give them away because they can't afford to keep them.

Re: WTF in America

The gender tests that people like to use don't really work on an anthromorphised processed food, so they don't know which bathroom they should be outraged by it using.

Re: Moving to USA from UK

I got my first mortgage through a reputable local lender, who immediately sold it on to a national lender of some disrepute. When I tried to remortgage with them a few years later, they made it so...

Re: Let's talk about cars

Home chargers are only $500 now, unless you are going for Tesla. Plug it in overnight, never have to wait in line for gas again, fuel is 80% cheaper even when gas is normal price. Batteries last...

Re: Naturalize or remain GC Holder for moving back to UK

Yes, it's not that difficult, seems more like a formality than a hassle, although if I wasn't a non-criminal tax-payer I might have met more resistance. I even screwed up answering most of the...

Re: Free Covid Tests in Mail - Gov't Site OPEN NOW!

It's your sloppy reading and understanding. I said they were trying to, not that they have succeeded yet.

Re: Maus

Here's the trick - you can't just come out and say it. Just like how Maus was removed under the pretext of language and nudity, you do the same with slavery. It used to be that books were labelled as...

Re: 3D printer

They generate heat to melt the plastic filament, and also operate the motors. Looking online, the Ender 3 has an average power draw of 125 watts, which isn't even as much as a gaming PC. My son's...

Re: 3D printer

My son has a 3D printer that I help him with. It is an Ender3. He mostly uses it to print models of things he likes, often memes or characters from tv shows. He has designed a few things himself,...
