People need to start unmasking these fuckers.

Yes, it might mean you disappear. But eventually these guys get exposed one by one and perhaps some accidents happen.

Yeah we recently switched to per diem for meals. Still have to keep receipts for hotels and vehicle rentals/gas etc but it's nice not having to juggle 60 meal receipts.

At minimum they should be towed for being in a no parking spot

Wait, really? Why? What's the difference between using AI for a photo like this and using Photoshop?

I really dislike that they keep attributing this to climate change.

Northern Canada has a fuckton of mosquitos, it wasn't the cold weather keeping them away. Greenland also has mosquitos and it's north of Iceland.

edit: downvotes why? I literally work in a field directly dealing with mosquitos and have been to the Arctic circle and caught mosquitos to be identified (Culiseta alaskaensis by the way)

I'm not denying climate change is a thing. I just dislike that people attribute this to a warming climate with absolutely no evidence when it is easily countered.

If you can't survive this, I never wanted you anyways....

Just because you make a law don't mean it won't still happen. If they make it a law I guarantee you it won't be enforced. What are people going to do? Phone the cops because people are selling tickets on Facebook for too much?

The only way to enforce it is at the entrance to the venue by making tickets invalid if they were resold without the venue giving some sort of permissions somehow.

Sure, unless they have a refund policy. Maybe you might get screwed if you're plans change within like a week of the event but shit happens. Or maybe a system can happen where you can change your ticket after the return window closes and reprint it with a different name.

It's not something that cannot be fixed or figured out. Just probably not in 5 minutes in a single comment, but you seem to think it's impossible.

Wouldn't necessarily need to be the exact purchaser. Who ever buys the ticket puts down a name to go on the ticket. Like buying a plane ticket.

If it's a group just the one name would suffice as long as that person is present, and make it so refunds or exchanges are easy to do if the person who gets it as a gift doesn't want it.

Why don't they just print the name of the purchaser on the ticket and require the person to have I'd when they show up to the venue?

Why do they even need musk? It's not like he is lead engineer or chief of design.

Debt has increased 5% in a single year...

At that rate it would be $44 trillion by end of his term.

$8 trillion higher than when he started.

I heard Taylor almost has $2 billion or so.

That's the equivalent of someone with $100,000 donating five bucks.

I doubt it's the harsh weather that prevents mosquitos. They probably just never made it to the island before and now made it on a plane or boat finally.

In Canada you'll find hellish mosquitos up in the Arctic circle which has a much colder climates than Iceland I believe.

Seriously. If you wouldn't fine them for littering by dumping the coffee on the pavement right beside the drain (which it would washinto on the first rainstorm) then they shouldn't fine them for anything by dumping it directly into the drain.

No one is going to get fined for dumping coffee on the sidewalk. But they might get fined for dumping oil or paint on the sidewalk.

But you could still save a copy of yourself each morning and then if you die, recreate your last save point, no? Then you only lose a day.

Maybe a yearly save point too incase theres any long term thing you don't catch fast enough like cancer...

I also work with people who get paid to do manual data entry. I would be skeptical of any close results, you will probably get a different number each time it's counted.

That doesn't fly where I live, not sure about Nebraska though.

Where I live if you label someone's position as management they are still entitled to overtime unless 95% of their time is actually spent doing management. So the assistant manager in retail can help out on the cash register a bit if needed, but not do sales one day a week and the rest of the time management without overtime.

Seriously, why do they even care? It's not like people are threating violence or even cursing each other out.

Yikes, someone I know was planning on going in may. Wonder if this will affect their decision.
