Donald Trump to attend fundraiser on day of Barron's graduation
  • Maybe for public schools? I seriously doubt Barron is attending a school with more than a few dozen in his graduating class.

    Edit: did a quick Google. 610 students at his school in grades 6-12.... So something like 90 students per grade level.

  • What linguistic constructions do you hate that no one else seems to mind?
  • The over usage of "that" on news broadcasts.

    "It's that time of ___!" (Insert day, week, year, fall, spring, summer, etc)

    There are many countless examples. It's like nails on a chalkboard every time I hear it

  • Why the Swedes love doing something that Americans hate
  • Thanks, and your math makes sense, but I think this is a misinterpretation by op. It's fair to say that as a percentage of expenditure... But not tax dollars.

    Social security gets complicated because it's set up as a trust fund and has investments that grow to support disbursement rates. It also means that the expenditures should be carved out, same as the inbound tax. This should shift the calculations meaningfully.

  • Just saw this while getting gas. Why is it illegal to get less than 4 gallons?
  • Except the warning is on the e15 and not the standard gas.

    So it doesn't matter if I buy 1, 2, 20 gallons of e15... As an e15 buyer I get the chance that it's more gas than ethanol.

    The warning of 4 gallons needs to be applied to the non-ethanol blend gasolines, as those are the ones at risk!

  • Copenhagen's historic stock exchange in flames
  • It's art both in paintings and the buildings architecture. The spire was one of the most well known in Copenhagen.

    It's also the loss of the primary trading floor from when it was an active exchange (At least from what I was able to gather.).

  • Live Nation/Ticket Master won't give you your tickets unless you install their app
  • Actually think this is more about protecting against unscrupulous scalpers selling tickets multiple times.

    When you can just email a pdf or print it, nothing stops you from doing it multiple times.

    At the end, it's ticketbastard that has to listen to the people that got scammed. This method forces authentication and secure the chain of custody.

  • Texas poised to get America's first bullet train
  • Are those flights because of hub relationships? Where it will still be somehow cheaper to fly with a hop than to fly direct out of the hub?

    I once lived 1hr from an airport and 2hrs from a hub. It was always cheaper to drive to the closest airport and fly to the hub. Absolutely annoying.
