A person can dream.

I live just outside a no-fly zone around an airport. Maybe a mile away, slightly under.

I never take my drone above the trees unless I'm away from home because I'm paranoid about anything going wrong and my drone just taking off in one direction until it dies or hits something.

I'd rather be extra cautious and be lightly mocked than cause the airport to shut down and have the alphabet boys knocking on/down my door.

Especially since I live close enough to a military base that my drone could theoretically reach it in a flyaway, if winds are helping it along.

Note: I have been lucky enough that in four years, I have never lost contact with my drone, but the paranoia remains.

The sentence that was handed down based on the evidence should be served by the fabricators. And because punishment for the poors is extremely disproportionate (snatching $20 from a counter is not deserving of a year in prison) I say add 20% to the sentence, minimum.

Make them serve 18 years, minimum. Of course, their choices are solitary for their protection or Gen-pop.

I was out of shape, I got in shape, I fell out of shape, I got back in shape, and now I'm mostly out of shape with a stable weight above average but not obese.

I never felt this "better" thing people keep talking about.

I'm glad it works for some people, but it hasn't worked for me.

My parents have between 1,000 and 3,000 books.. Even they aren't sure.

Last time they were neatly arranged I was a child.

Right now they have 3 floor-to-ceiling bookshelves stacked as densely as possible, 3 books deep, with as many stacked In and laying on top as can fit Ina rectangle 10ft tall, 4ft wide, and 18ish inches deep.

Plus a handful of waist high shelves, multiple moving boxes filled up that haven't been emptied since they moved in2017 and a ton scattered all over the house..

They have more fantasy/Sci fi books than every library in a 50 mile radius combined.

I still have less than 30 books to my name since most of mine are digital, but I've been going to half price books looking to get physical copies of everything.

They barely watch dvds anymore since they're spending like 100/mo on various streaming subs.

They've had a book in hand for as long as I can remember, nowadays it's a Kindle but their disorganization has been present as long as I can remember, too.

Last year I watched their dog while they were out of town, and I reorganized their dvd collection in alphabetical order, keeping the various series together.

In less than 6 months it was essentially back to complete chaos. And in that time,according to them, they barely watched any dvds, they just looked through the shelves a bunch to figure out what they have.Why that requires them to pull movies out and out them back in a different spot, I'm not sure.

Well think of it this way:

A politician COULD approve a project like this, and his area will see improvements in 2-7 years, and everything connected to the network improves in 4-10 years, and if the politician personally invests and things go well (they would, but yOu nEvEr KnOw) then the politician could stand to gain a decent chunk of ROI in a few years.

OR

The politician ~~accepts a bribe~~ listens to lobbyists from the automotive industry, kills all competition to ICE vehicles and more roads, the area stagnates for the third decade in a row, and the politician is $10,000 richer today.

Honestly the politicians hands are completely tied here. Their net worth is only $18 million, do you really think they can afford to wait a few years???
