How? Are Tesla's more dangerous as a result of direct sales? Do you have data to show this?

But do they commingle inventory? That's the real problem with Amazon, not that fakes are listed on the marketplace, but that you can't even trust Amazon as the seller.

> 99% of the time, you’ll get the same or better deal by booking online with the hotel directly.

This is often repeated but I almost never find it to be true in reality. Particularly for non chain hotels, best case scenario is their prices are the same as booking.com but if I go through booking I'll get points and future discounts. This tier is never cheaper booking directly. Chain hotels where I have a non base tier status will sometimes be cheaper but even then usually not.

Yeah, one of the major perks of the EUV is the wireless Carplay.

Counterpoint to your anecdote. I didn't find Amazon all that toxic for my first 2 years until I had a baby. First, the parental leave is significantly worse than competitors. I took 3 weeks when my son was born and another 5 to help my wife transition back to work herself (only 6 were paid by Amazon). There was a 10 week period in between leaves where I was stressed, anxious, and feeling overworked and burned out. My performance suffered. I received no extra help from my manager but also received no negative feedback during that time. Welp, came back from the 2nd half of my leave and was immediately put on a pip (technically called 'focus'). Worse, there was absolutely zero empathy from this manager during the focus.

Maybe Amazon can be a good place to work if you're ALWAYS able to be a solid performer but god forbid you're going through something in your personal life that temporarily impacts your ability to deliver.

I think he probably should have said "all fiat currency".

> For people that use vaporizers like mine, you also need to have a certain amount for the vaporizer to be effective otherwise you get nothing out of it

You probably know this but just in case, some vapes are better for microdosing than others and will work with just a pinch.

> Unfortunately finding the low-dose stuff seems to be very difficult.

What I've been doing is buying CBD flower online (usually <$75 per/ounce) and mixing it with a small amount of THC flower. I can pack my vape full, still get big clouds, but have a tame effect, the only downside is that the flavor isn't quite as good.

Keep in mind individuals can test positive for months after being infected but are not at risk for spreading the virus. It really should be a negative test or 14+ days after a positive test.

My experience is that it's quite easy flying on a major carrier with a dog that fits under the seat. Many airports have started to add pet bathrooms as well.

Not the above comment but I find the story a bit suspect. I have many friends in the competitive powerlifting world and while many have nagging injuries, almost none of them came directly from deadlifting. That's my experience as well, I have pulled over 600 at 181 and never came close to an injury from the lift but I can't say the same for squat (knee, hip, and shoulder pain) and bench (wrist and lower back pain).

> why do you need specific indoor gym equipment?

He answered your question directly and then you change the goalposts. Clearly you hold the opinion that gyms should remain closed, and that's fine, but why even ask the question?

Strength training is extremely hard to do without equipment. It's a common misconception that body weight or minimal equipment is an adequate substitute. Iron Wolf is not strength training, it's endurance. I'm not knocking him, it looks like a great workout, but any intermediate barbell lifter will lose strength and size on this workout. There's simply no substitute for heavy compound barbell movements.

But we're specifically talking about highway commutes where driving dynamics don't really come into play. IMO, the higher position alone makes driving an SUV superior on the highway but the 2003 Jetta reference is what really makes the comment absurd.

This is an absolutely crazy response. In no world is a 15 year old economy sedan more comfortable for a highway commute than a newer SUV. The only argument you could make is fuel economy.
