It's interesting to note that it's not just comments that can be manipulated but also the stories that are upvoted.

Makes sense. Thanks for responding.

Curious how OP got this idea. USA PATRIOT Act Sec. 1013 (a)(10), (b)(5,6) mentions research, distribution and stockpiling of vaccines but nothing about liability. There was a decis…

It's also interesting because modern American politics seems to be primarily driven by corporations.

> The Earth is the only world known, so far, to harbor life. I often reflect on this sentiment and have half-convinced myself that the current definition of 'life' we use in this s…

And how effective have those regulations been?

This is a great point. In some circles we would refer to this as commoditization (clichéd but effective). It seems to be a consequence of continued profit-seeking outside establish…

Thanks for telling your story. I have an odd question. How do you feel about the way current members of the military and veterans are treated w/r/t painkillers like Oxycontin?

I'm referring to the effect red light cameras have on drivers rather than pedestrians.

Anecdotally, switching to a button-fly rather than zipper led to a dramatic decrease in me walking about with my fly open.

If most articles are private (due to added cost) but all GF articles are public then will there be any practical consequence?

As somewhat of a casual expert on jaywalking I can report that one of the chief issues that this does not solve is that inattention and carelessness --not lack of slavish obedience…
