If you just let them out again of course it doesn't work. American prison has rehabilitated essentially no one.

Netflix definitely does a better job than its competition but the encoding is not perfect as it is, lowering it for certain material would push me away. They generally do a better job with their original content as well. Mario movie(Universal) looked like ass. Damsel (Netflix)looked quite good. Extraction 2 looked really good.

Climate change is getting rid of snow. No more salted roads. Cars will last forever

If I lived about a mile I could shop daily. That's an effortless walk. On the occasion I buy heavy liquids, backpack or bicycle.

If you live within 1 mile of a grocery store you could easily walk, and you don't need anything else on a regular basis. Use a bicycle and 5 miles becomes just as easy. People lived thousands of years without cars. The problem is our cities are built around cars, and they're built poorly because of it.

It's the only programming language I really delved into. I haven't had to program since college. I found it very useful.

Of the many dozens of different apples I've had, none have deserved to be as popular as they are. I suspect people just like the crunch; flavor-wise I'm unimpressed. The best thing about apples is apple pie.

I have had many great and terrible strawberries. I think the average is disappointing. The best are indeed kings and better than figs. Maybe I've just been lucky with figs, but they've all been better than the average strawberry. My personal favorite is a plum but to get a plum that's better than the best strawberry is exceedingly difficult.

Figs are way better than apples which are very popular for some reason. They're at least as tasty as a banana. I actually think the average fig is better than the average strawberry. Too many big bland strawberries.

I too recently watched this film for the first time. I didn't like it at all. The shock factor with HAL maybe kept people interested back then but it's a almost common theme today. I think Kubrick is overrated.

I think the low sodium ones taste better.

The opioid crisis? Opaque costs for anything?

More like be relatively silent and the occasional comment during and most conversation afterwards. Easily an hour's worth if it was a good movie.
