What about the friend or family member of someone I care about? I just don't know if I could live with that.

Yeah but counterpoint - random persons also include: scumbag terrorists, the entire government of Syria, China and Russia, Russian moles and spies in the US, and many more! There's like 7 billion people, and only 330 million are Americans! Do your patriotic duty, kill a random person today! It's probably a foreigner anyways.

Otherwise push it a couple hundred times. Enough to retire to bumfuck nowhere and feed my eventual small Japanese sports car addiction. More than a hundred people across the planet died while I wrote this post.

psydude posted:Living wage for the cost of living? Which is exactly what I said in my post? The arbitrary $15 amount that a lot of people have latched on to doesn't account for the high variance in COL between localities. In NYC, $15 isn't nearly enough to live off of. In Eastern Kentucky it's probably far more than many places can realistically afford to pay their lowest level employees. Seattle and Baltimore have nearly identical costs of living*. But that's not even the point. Severely economically depressed areas like Appalachia are the exception, and $15 an hour is more than reasonable for most metropolitan areas in the country - including many parts of the country where a state-level minimum wage is not even a remote possibility and the only hope is a federal increase. And even the $15/hr level still leaves plenty of room for an economically viable higher local minimum wage in some of the higher cost of living metros. That said, yes, $15/hr across the board is semi-arbitrary. But messaging is important, and what fits better in a political sign/slogan/commercial - "Fight for $15" or "We would kindly request that you set the minimum wage to an empirically determined level that meets a definition of living wage, to be determined, that is regionally adjusted for cost of living and indexed to inflation, with further reevaluation in the future as economic conditions change"? * http://livingwage.mit.edu/metros/42660 http://livingwage.mit.edu/metros/12580

I commuted for a time walking between Elliott St. in Canton to either the metro at JH Med Center on Broadway or the one in Inner Harbor and never had any problems, and being 19 and super stupid at the time I'm thankful for that.

Would you really feel any pity if one of those dots stopped moving forever? If I offered you twenty thousand pounds for every dot that stopped, would you really, old man, tell me to keep my money, or would you calculate how many dots you could afford to spare?

FastestGunAlive posted:Really hope the idea of buying *their* browser history and publishing it is a possibility, if (when) this thing passes. If I'm not mistaken, wasn't the rule that this negated only established in October of last year, and in-effect as of January 3 of this year? Does this new resolution do anything other than negate the FCC rule? The language in House Res 230 is pretty brief and doesn't seem to provide any additional changes, "just" negating the language of the Protecting the Privacy of Customers of Broadband and Other Telecommunications Services rule. If the resolution does not provide anything new, what were the ISPs doing with data prior to January 3, 2017? Still lovely, but it seems like a return to the prior status quo.
