When I did that work, they encouraged everyone to put people on hold when looking anything up because it reset your call timer and made the numbers look better.

To make it more attractive to tourists and easier to clean, I'd guess.

I hope the people can sue successfully, since state govt seems stacked towards colonialist endeavours.

The image looks like our distant ancestor there is crawling in from another dimension, the way the water still encloses its body so high up... or at least like it portaled over from a deep ocean part of the ocean floor.

This is as interesting as the time I learned from an expert talking about research into aging that technically younger animals (and likely people) can experience aging if they're injected with the blood of an older counterpart, suggesting (among other arguments he made) not just that it's "contagious" but that aging should be treatable and youthful physical health could be extendable to longer ages.

Is that the newspaper that got their papers stolen or were raided or something the day they were going to run a story on the local sheriff, or is this a whole other bizarre confrontation between cops and print media?

I found the last one a lot more authentic-sounding and a decent compliment, honestly. But I don't know, are people really expecting to say/hear flowery speeches along the lines of a bad pick up line?

Without careful, organized action by regular citizens, this will be treated as yet another opportunity for the wealthiest high rollers to shore up assets-- especially since they've long had the power to adjust markets to their whims.

The "desk" appears to be random limbs of other humans. Also, it looks like her game then is somehow taking place in a kitchen that's on its side?

They probably mean grammar, since most Google operators do work. If there's a specific difference in search syntax (other than bangs) though, I'd love to know what I've been missing.

Indeed, it seems like campaign finance reform would be a better start than to pray for fossil fuel and other industries to develop a a conscience.

I'd like to think we can all agree across the political spectrum that we need to find a way for politicians to represent the interests of citizens rather than just ruling over us.

If you connect to the wrong tower, can't they get IMEI info? That won't include OS, but it will give phone model/mfr and other details. I remember reading about regional police forces or intelligence agencies gathering data in North America at least (and they were explicitly gathering personal & usage data too, to see if they could find criminals supposedly).
