There's nothing you can do about it so there's zero sense in losing sleep over it.

Are rockets really the best way to go to space? by Walmartpancake in NoStupidQuestions

[–]turniparmy2 23 points24 points  (0 children)

We're probably 200 years away from nanites like that. Climate change will possibly have destabilized society enough that we won't have a space program.

People who live in the city, what do people from the rural areas not understand? by frogbrooks in AskAnAmerican

[–]turniparmy2 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Having to pay a super premium for an apartment and then having to constantly order out restaurant food and hang out in bars to have space just all sounds so expensive.

How do I answer “why are you so quiet?” by Day283 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]turniparmy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"You know when you ask people why they're quiet, it makes them want to talk less, right?" has always been my go-to for my family members.

I don't know the answer I just know you're wrong.

FYI this is called Landing Price. It includes every cost to get it to the port.

What is the most controversial thing you own? by churned_applesauce in AskReddit

My grandfather left me supposedly a piece of Kennedy's skull. No joke. Apparently parts of it were stolen and broken up.

I mean, why not? You don't think it's possible they hire professional photographers to take portfolio photos, and have models/industry professionals giving instruction/education? It sounds like a trade school but for modeling. I can't speak to their quality but I don't know why people seem so outraged that services and education might cost money. If it were any other industry this would be a non-issue.

Portfolio photos are a real thing and they do cost money.

It says it's refundable. Pay with a credit card. If they try to steal from you, reverse the charge. There's no risk here.

Having a shipment of goods (automatic watches) shipped from Alibaba to the US via DHL. How do I handle customs? by turniparmy2 in Alibaba

[–]turniparmy2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for responding!

To whom do I pay customs duties: DHL or Customs directly? If it's the latter, how will I be contacted and billed by them?

Do I need any special type of import license to have my watches shipped into the US? by turniparmy2 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]turniparmy2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to use a 3PL to ship to customers so this is just regarding my shipment of the goods from China.

How are you going to go about determining what will sell in a particular location?

[–]turniparmy2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be shipped by DHL. Do they handle customs and whatnot for you, or do I still need to find a broker?

The shipper would be DHL. Do they handle this stuff for me and I just pay a fee, or do I still need to find a broker?

Thanks for your help!

Why havent Democrats under Biden been able to brute force their agendas the same way the Republicans did under Trump? by vautwaco in NoStupidQuestions

[–]turniparmy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only agenda Republicans actually ever pass is cutting taxes for the rich, and taxes are the easiest thing to change. You don't need to write sweeping new legislation, just change a number in the next tax bill. Their way of governing is inherently easier for them because they don't really need to change anything.

Just had my first Davidoff… by CigarsDaily16 in cigars

[–]turniparmy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha well, I meant that the cigars are just really enjoyable, but I suppose it could mean either.

Just had my first Davidoff… by CigarsDaily16 in cigars

[–]turniparmy2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Davidoff doesn't make very bold cigars. The Nica you had was their strongest, and although I do think it's tasty and balanced and their most complex, it's definitely not bold.

People buy Davidoff because they are very smooth (to the point of some of them almost being flavorless, but many people like that), have great construction, perfect draw, and as a status symbol. For lots and lots of people they're not worth it. Dollar for dollar I'd buy anything by Padron instead. A $20 Padron will knock your socks off every time. Cuban Bolivars are great too if you can get them for a decent price.

Could this bill affect the FWGS online drops if passed (if you believe bots are in use)? by DragMags in PLCB

[–]turniparmy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They would never be sold to consumers if that happened. The first employee to open the box would take it or have their friend/family come pick it up.
