Would it be strange to not have any windows on a plane? You could put thin oled panels on the wall instead. Seems like that would be more structurally sound.

Some of this sounds exactly line what Obamacare was trying to fix.

Check your insurance to make sure you have transport. It's the same in Switzerland - it's an extra line on your insurance.

My wife and also have Rega. They can't legally call it insurance but if we get injured in, for example, the USA they will send us a private hospital jet to bring us home.

This is stupid. And New York was new Amsterdam before the USA and a lot more people came through new Amsterdam (including my family) than whatnever new Sweden was. And the Netherlands was already a democracy before the USA's Declaration of Independence so they would have got ideas from that rather than whatever Sweden was. This is just reaching to write an article.

The painting address numbers on curbs was a widespread scam in San Francisco. Grifters scammed homeowners into doing it.

They're adding a hunch of floors to an existing building - it was the old Pfizer headquarters and they want to turn it into apartments. Someone either didn't do the proper engineering study, or the original specs weren't accurate.

Figuring out who to blame will probably take years in court.

Write a book? To go with all of the others. I liked this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confessions_of_an_Economic_Hit...

If you accuse someone (not me) of having a small penis (I don't) they (not me) don't have to show that they (not me) have a large penis (like me). Just the accusation they made (to you, not me) is slander enough. But I'd gladly drop-trousers in a court.

I was friends with two western reared Indians whose family in India had a fabulous giant green emerald that their ancestors wore as they rode on horseback from village to village that they owned to show their leadership.

They still have what they say is the original - I was at a giant family wedding (thousands of people) where the groom wore it. However I assume they sold off the real one years ago because the family is in decline. They've sold off all of their land except one area near Hyderabad and when I visited them last they were in the process of selling even that. It only took three generations to lose it all.

Just like there's a natural selection to those with religious beliefs (and active killing of those without) there's probably active selection to those with conservative beliefs like raiding a family, a desire to teach their values to their children, producing as many children as possible - values that correlate with conservatives.

Don't worry. The AMOC is already collapsing. I live in Zurich, about the same latitude as the north tip of Maine. Winters here are pleasant - you have to go to the mountains to get snow. Once the Atlantic current that keeps Europe warm collapses maybe the glaciers can start growing again.
