  1. IIRC he just hogged the credit for the work his underlings did on that one.
  2. Unfortunately I'm only empowered to hand out honorary doctorates.
  3. So this is $1 trillion less than his initial proposal?
  4. DeSantis signs bill requiring Florida students, professors to register political views with state | Salon.com WWW.SALON.COM Universities may lose funding if staff and students' beliefs do not satisfy Florida's GOP-run legislature
  5. "Our housing market doesn't follow basic economics" will always be a lulzy argument no matter the context.
  6. The top of your housing market just isn't as high as in NYC or Los Angeles.
  7. Whelp the first charge only got 6 miles. I intentionally didn't charge it after the first round trip to work to see what the range is like and on the second round trip I did get home but the roundtrip to my office is 3 miles and on the second roundtrip it dropped from showing two out of four bars to zero bars and beeping at me that it was urgently low on battery. Gonna futz with the settings to see if I'm pushing it unnecessarily hard but if I can't get it to 9-10 miles on a charge without severely limiting the speed it's going back to Costco. I guess next up is the Segway Ninebot ES3Plus they have if it comes to that. The one I have is advertised for 15 miles and range the Segway is rated for 28 miles so even if the ratio of actual:advertised is the same that's 11 miles, which is a lot more usable. I knew the range would be lower than advertised since that's true for all of these scooters since they'll pick someone who's like 170 lbs no cargo as their baseline but this is extreme. For something like home->doctor->office->home that's 4.5 miles, so 9-10 miles is comfortable cushion for if I want to do another stop out of the way somewhere on a day like that, whereas ~6 miles is either "have to carry the thing into the office to charge" (and despite being lighter than other scooters it's still too heavy to do that all the time) or be sweating about doing anything other than going straight home/only making additional stops that are directly on the path between work and home.
  8. If you see the way NIMBYs talk it has a lot of xenophobic nativism built it, just scaled down to the city level instead of the national level. People will complain about "why should we cater to transplants from <other places>, we have enough housing for our current residents many who have lived here their whole lives" etc etc.
  9. lol that's just a marketing term new housing has always been built at the high end of the market.
  10. Well for starters here's where all the transit in Houston apparently converges and as far as I can tell there's very little housing within walking distance of it. Seems like an obvious place to start. https://www.google.com/maps/search/apartments/@29.7586013,-95.363655,17z/data=!5m1!1e2
  11. Amazing, Dave Chappelle offered to do free shows in support of Yang and the morons running his campaign turned Chappelle down. Yang Presidential Campaign Advisers Blame Tusk Strategies For ‘Crashing’ His Mayoral Bid - The Uprising WWW.THEUPRISING.INFO “I don’t know what happened or who got his ear."
  12. This is an indictment of the NYC BOE, not RCV. There's a TON of dysfunctional shit at the NYC BOE and apparently it's largely a no-show jobs program.
