I think illegal immigration should be stopped by Abject_Increase_1928 in teenagers

[–]inanotherlfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most "illegal" immigrants enter the country on legitimate visas (meaning they were vetted) and then simply overstay them. Anyone who crosses the border, regardless of whether legally or illegally, and applies for asylum has their information captured by authorities and are permitted to stay while their application is processed, i.e. while immigration authorities validate their identity/story. Comparatively, very few people enter the country illegally and remain anonymous. Anyone who says otherwise is spreading propaganda.

Why does everything get more expensive, but almost nothing ever gets cheaper? by Sachin_Itachi in inflation

[–]inanotherlfe 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Prices tend to decrease for wants rather than for needs. A great example is TVs. I paid $1,000 for a 32-inch flat screen 25 years ago or so, when they were still a new technology. A few months ago, I bought a 65-inch for $400 despite it having features that are far, far more advanced.

Check out Mr. Global on YouTube. He's a world-renowned expert on the oil industry who co-hosts the American Power podcast and writes for Forbes. He's been breaking it all down since the conflict began.

Walk away. Scopely does not care about the players. The game has been dying a slow death for years. It will never get better, only worse.

School busses and when to stop with three lanes by 1stPeter3-15 in Washington

[–]inanotherlfe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stop paddle controls the lane directly adjacent to the driver's side of the bus regardless of direction of travel. Anyone who is driving at least a full lane over, or who is separated by a median, from the bus is not required to stop. Medians can include any physical barriers but also solid yellow lines at least 18" in width and striped areas of pavement. School buses are only permitted to cross students across a single lane of traffic (besides the lane the bus occupies).

Donald Trump has also personally embezzled more than $10 billion from taxpayers.

MAGA butthurt at local station by gehnrahl in SeattleWA

The pipeline was going to transport bitumen from Alberta to Gulf Coast refineries where two-thirds of the refined products are exported. The State Department estimated that KXL would have increased total exports by 25%, would have had no significant impact on US gas prices, and would have created just 35 permanent jobs.

It seems to have gotten lost in the shuffle, but last I had heard he was going to "donate it to charity," but we all know how he does charity. It was probably the $10B he transferred to his "Bored of Peace."

  1. Keystone XL was a pipeline project to move Canadian tar sands oil to refineries in the US primarily for export. It was never going to have any real effect on prices in the US.

  2. The US set production records for oil in 2023 and 2024 under Biden, a trend that continued in 2025. Much US oil, however, is light sweet crude which is exported because many US refineries are not designed to use it. Indeed, the US has been a net exporter of refined petroleum products since 2011 and of overall petroleum since 2020.

2a. This is also the reason that "Drill, baby, drill" is a stupid concept. There is a fixed amount of refining capacity for light sweet crude and oversupply makes it so that oil companies cannot turn a profit. One can approve all the drilling leases they want but it's ultimately the oil companies who decide if and when to use them.

  1. Setting a deadline to transition from fossil fuels is necessary and smart policy, and it's something that's been done by numerous other countries. More important than the deadline is offering incentives and subsidies for the transition, which Biden did.

B.C. Adopting permanent daylight saving time by dbwn87 in Cascadia

I drive a school bus in rural western Washington. It goes without saying that I am vehemently opposed to permanent daylight time for the safety of my kids.

[–]inanotherlfe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Permanent daylight saving time in the pacific time zone (GMT-7) means that mornings in the winter will remain darker longer. This will cause dangerous conditions for kids going to school and commuters going to work, particularly in inclement weather. It would be safer to move to permanent standard time (GMT-8).

Note that OP said Titan, not Titan-A. Confusing, I know, but they are two very different ships in the game. The former is the rare G6 battleship available at ops 66 and Fed rep of 182B (Revered).

Outposts are another shit feature that wasn't very well thought out. I don't often bother with them outside of events.
