I think for most web apps it doesn't make sense to allow the width to get so wide, except when the content being displayed is a columnar list and even then it's a pretty marginal benefit.

What I've done is limit the max-width to some amount of px/chars and allowed the remaining space be empty, with an exception for when displaying tables. Even with tables, the bigger width is only beneficial if either the contents of the columns are large enough, or there are very many columns to show. The solution in my mind is limiting the column widths to the longest content.

This might be the only latin joke I ever get.

I am happy they mark down the side of the fuel cap.

Someone thought me the concept of a legal fiction and I still think about it.

Land ownership, companies, nation states, citizenship: all exist because we agree that it does.

I feel like there's a simple solution: Government issues free photo IDs to everyone, you need to pay for it if you destroy/lose it while it's still valid.

As someone who comes from a country where we do require photo ID for voting, not requiring one feels absurd, so I asked the same question. Apparently in the US, there is a part of the population that doesn't normally get photo ID and that part is mostly poor people and minorities and photo ID laws are used as means of disenfranchisement, similar to having the voting days during business days (when many people can't come to vote) or having voting stations far away in an area with limited public transport options.

Where I live in Finland, the police will actually grant you a temporary photo ID only for voting if you don't have one, although most people have passports. There are early voting stations in basically every post office for a week and the main voting day is always on a Sunday. No excuse to miss voting.

I've only missed one voting during my life, at a time when I was living in another country and there was no consulate in the part of the country I was in. Nowadays there's also the option of mail-in voting when outside the country, I don't know if it wasn't a thing back then or I just didn't know.

That's not to say I didn't want some improvements in our system: I'd like to see ranked choice voting or something similar here, there are some smaller parties I've been voting and it seems they seldom have a chance.

Although I understand the sentiment, the instrument under which the funding has been granted is called NEVI and has pretty strict requirements about what gets built (150kW rated, payment terminal equipped charging stations along major roads) as well as transparency requirements about reliability.

I don't think I've ever heard an AM transmission in my life, is there a benefit relative to FM or digital radio?

I think there might be two options to the right (yellow stickers) indicating eg 95E15 and 98E10

Is it really so? The specs are open, and Tesla has been permissive about letting other companies use their patents, but what would happen if they changed their minds?

I can hear the dude shouting through the text. Love it.

Yea, Chinese people understand when you do that, but they first look at you with this confused look thinking 'he wants two chopstic pieces?' and then realize you have a vocabulary of a two-year-old.

Source:lived in China long enough to learn yo ask for things, but not long enough to learn the countable nouns.

We have seen mosquito larvae (and had problems with) very small rain barrels.

Thanks for the tip, I'd like a pond, so this is good to know!

You want mosquitos? That's how you get mosquitos.

I have never heard of this game, but the reviews are overwhelmingly positive and price is 10€.

I was attempting to make a dark joke about police shootings of civilians in their homes, but unsuccessfully.
