Part of the confusion may come from states with different license plate rules.

Twenty states require only a rear plate, which means drivers can legally put a novelty or decorative plate on the front. The remaining 30 states require a state-issued plate on both the front and back of the vehicle; New York is one of them.

That may explain why law enforcement would assume a decorative “Star Trek” plate on the front of the car would be a legitimate license plate.

This is one of the stupider "50 countries in a trench coat pretending to be one country" things we have going on. There's no reason not to require plates on both the front and back bumper, especially when it's opening the door for confusion with fake plates on the optional bumper.

Dude's name is Jesse Welles, he had a couple albums out and posts new videos like this constantly on social media and YouTube. And he's fast to write songs about the current goings-on.

Best new artist of 2024 IMO (he's had a couple bands that were moderately successful indie outfits, but never had the kind of reach he's getting now)

I had a kid right when space age came out, so I don't have much gaming time and am making awfully slow progress. Just killed my first couple worms on Vulcanus to open up a tungsten patch.

Do you generally make all your planets fully self-sustaining, or do you rely on imports to get things done? In particular, oil is kind of a pain on Vulcanus (though I haven't yet gotten advanced/ regular coal liquification), so I'm wondering if I'm better off importing ingredients for rocket parts from Nauvis, or if I should just comb out some of my spaghetti and fix my oil industry here?

I don't think even the most annoyingly fake- progressive Democrat is gonna vote to abolish the FDIC. I'm not even convinced that every republican would do so.

But he says Fuck a lot, so my immersion remains intact

He was already a suspect at that point, his real ID also would have gotten him detained.

Almost every company? It's called a serial number.

Wow, thanks for this

My wife broke her ankle, spent the night in the hospital hooked up to IV pain meds, and had surgery the next day.

Insurance said that the overnight stay was medically unnecessary, as the care could have been provided in a more appropriate setting. They only approved overnight stays in instances where the patient's pain needed constant management or they were having surgery. Bonus points: there was a footnote on the denial papers saying that the person who denied the coverage had a medical background...in OBGYN. Not orthopedics.

Spent literally months appealing that before they begrudgingly agreed that it was covered, which makes us the lucky ones in the US Healthcare system.

See 2 comments ago. Nobody except the ultra rich could afford to go into business if it meant risking all of their personal assets.

And like already mentioned: it's not less liability, it's separate liability. Misconduct as a business (which may not even be the owner's fault, it could be an employee's) can risk all of the business assets, but not personal assets owned outside the business.

Because the line does need to be drawn somewhere. You can't just go out, cause harm to someone, and then claim "Oh, that harm was done by my company, not me personally. Incidentally, my company only has like $20 in assets for you to recover."

The paperwork also doesn't entirely grant you the limited liability. You need to actually operate the company as a separate entity from yourself. If you "piece the veil" between individual and company, you may not be able to claim limited liability in court.

Because if we didn't have such protections, the ONLY people who could ever afford to go into business are the already-super-wealthy.

Nobody would ever open a small business if it meant risking the roof over their childrens' head.
