Probably Edding?

Some markers are more permanent than others I guess (I came across some that weren’t really bothered by isopropyl or solvent).

For speed I’d suggest a stencil and some nasty spray paint (the type that isn’t easily removed).

Isn’t that quite easy to remove, unlike permanent marker?

The problem is that public toilets need to be indestructible. The one near my home is constantly out of order because some asshole vandalized it. Restaurants, shops and delis only let customers use their restroom - probably for the same reason.

Tall buildings can block or funnel wind which can lead to smoggy and stormy areas. I assume at least Manhattan will have enough wind due to location and layout. However other cities that have a more medieval layout may have problematic areas. Most cities will do some kind of climate planning, I.e. where do wind and water go, are there any hot areas, etc. Here’s the starting page Frankfurts urban climate plan for air ducts for example. If you google „urban climate planning“ you’ll find tons of examples including NYC.

Let’s not forget that Trump and Friends did the exact same thing and worse while complaining about other peoples email servers.

Re-read your original comment, m8. If you really didn’t want to condemn all hacking, then you did a good job stating the exact opposite.

That 12 yo is now head of design at Tesla.

Or xenomorph quintuplets?

Well, it helped me understand why people would very regularly not understand apparently simple stuff I explained. This happened on so many topics with so many people it was very frustrating.

I don’t think that makes them lesser than me or me better than them (the people not understanding)… It just means I had and still have to work on adapting my messaging to my audience ← and that is something that everybody regardless of IQ should do.

I took a trip down the rabbit hole and tried to find any evidence - there is none. Even though this was happening before the www really took off there should be evidence on the net. A story hilarious as that would never die and would also be used as a warning against timeshare scams.

I don’t think mensa members are immune to scams, but timeshare? Even the legit ones are scammy IMO.

Do you remember how that con was supposed to work?

It boils down to property tax as a means of preventing land accumulation and tax revenue generation.

I don’t see how that would have worked even when it was invented.

Right now you can see how the rich own all the land and have no need to use or sell it. This way they create a shortage and can charge a higher price for the land they use or sell. IMO the only way to break this up to stop charging property tax at all - because all land ownership goes back to the state. If someone wants to use land they rent it from the state. If they do not use or misuse rented land the land goes to a different renter (or to the state).

To me expat always referred to people that only stay temporarily, mostly sent abroad by the company they work at. As opposed to a migrant that is meaning to stay permanently (and eventually gains citizenship).

TIL the definition differs regionally (see wiki) and mostly not as I thought it was.

(…) because it’s what they 'd be doing in that situation are doing all the time.

FTFY

Well, war comes back to their shores in the form of disabled veterans they then proceed to not give a fuck about.

Best example is draft dodger Donnie now sending other peoples children to die for his vanity.

I’m not autistic but agree that the kid gave the correct answer and the teacher is wrong.

If that had happened to my kid the teacher and I would have had at least one meeting.

Also in the outside section? If yes I applaud your government for implementing the rule properly, not half-assed like in Germany.
