We're all assuming it's a 4 digit code for the laughs. It could still be tough to crack if it's 5+ digits.

Damn a 75% conversion rate to permanent housing within 1 years is pretty amazing. This shows that most homeless people just need a little help, especially those that we're stable before medical issues or accidents. Next step is to fix our socio-economic system so one or two bad events don't put people out on the streets.

It's a terrible headline that completely downplays a successful mission. Instead of focusing on the fact that they achieved a landing accuracy of 55m where previous missions measured in kilometres they went for a cheap joke. This is in spite of having a thruster fail that resulted in the lander tipping over but still able to deploy is rover. The same article from a better website would have probably faired better.

Important distinction

Most Nones believe in God or another higher power, but very few attend any kind of religious service.

Another option is rocket language. It seems to be a lot focused on developing conversational skills. It's is paid but not subscription which I'm a fan of. You just buy the language you want. The first few lessons of a language are free if you want to try it. I'm test running it right now to start my switch away from Duolingo

Not to be rude but that is worth little to nothing in the frame of this discussion. Crime will go up in some areas and down in others. FBI data compiles all of that data, including the precinct of your relatives. The data shows overall numbers are down.

Now if the discussion was about what areas have seen upticks and why, then you information would be slightly more relevant. Even then, we would still need to clarify whether your relatives gave you their statement based on a report provided by their precinct or based on their personal experience.

I think we can believe the number regarding violent crimes, especially murder, because those definitely get reported. I would think businesses also report larceny/retail theft because they have insurance implications as well. I agree that petty crimes against individuals is probably under reported. However, I would rely on the FBI data more than anything else because of length and trend of the data. Either people have continually decreased in reporting crimes since 1960s or crime has actually decreased since 1960s. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

Buying a resistance band can be great to fill in the gaps between hotel gyms. Doesn't need to be anything fancy. Something portable that you can travel with to add resistance to bodyweight exercises. Only other tip is to superset your workout, mainly for the time benefit. I travel a good bit for work and it's amazing how I lose track of time and skip workouts due to time limitation.

Not exactly sure what it is but I'm just not big on Anya. I wish they had chosen someone else.

Is it just me or is this article absolute trash. I would say it's chatbot written but the punctuation and language issues indicate otherwise. Also font formatting is all over the place.

Just FYI Signal no longer supports SMS. They decided it "leads to confusion" and a partially secure app is not good enough. Led me to stop donating to them.

It's always been lowest common denominator content that's made the most money. I always ask people about movie preferences and an ever increasing common theme "Life is already tough, I don't want a serious movie, I just want mindless entertainment." Sequels provide that, you know the characters, you know the stakes, sprinkle in jokes and you have a mindless money maker.
