20% of people employed in NYC don’t live there. So that explains ~940,000 people who are probably driving.

13,000 vehicles in NYC are taxis. 77,000 active ride share drivers. These are used by the 176,000 daily tourists.

That brings the total number of cars in NYC largely serving people who don’t actually live there to 1.1m most days.

There are 2.1 million registered cars in NYC. That means 1:3 cars currently in the city represent people who don’t live there. That is roughly 1/3 of all cars in NYC. Likely closer to 50% or more of the actual traffic since the average NYC resident does not drive their car every day.

Yes, many at risk programs and housing programs and even Medicare and Medicaid provide phones and other devices to members and those device contracts with Google or via a cellular provider are for hundreds of thousands to millions of people depending on the state or federal program doing the purchasing. There isn’t a reality where those contracts will ever not be for first party devices. Even if we wanted to we couldn’t buy people one plus or other non-Google branded android devices and laptops in these programs because the companies selling them don’t meet various regulatory standards required by the programs.

These people are literally the most at risk and don’t get individual choice for their devices. The devices are being provided in the first place because too many modern systems require internet and phone access. Id.me, login.gov, MFA for your library app, your epic or Athena portals for healthcare, etc…

Where will you peer to once these laws are active everywhere. That’s where this is actually headed

They never sold the product. This is Reuters being slimy. The headline and article have been corrected:

Aug 14 (Reuters) - (This Aug. 14 story has been corrected to say that Costco will ‘not sell’ mifepristone instead of ‘stop selling’ the pill in paragraph 1 and removes reference to ‘stopping sale’ in paragraph 2)

I’m not 100% certain what our attorney did to structure our trust but we were able to do this without the trust having to buy the house itself and still could utilize a CRA loan program loan from a traditional bank and avoid PMI at a lower down payment.

From experience, basically no banks take collateral on co-owned homes. You probably won’t run into problems like that specifically. You can also easily structure an agreement with a lawyer. In many states you have to have an attorney to buy a home anyway (CT, MA, GA, DE, KY, LA, MD, MI, NH, ND, OK, RI, VT, WV, WO). We used ours to write and tack on the equivalent of an HOA arrangement you’d see in a condominium for our shared rooms.

I do find it amusing we have redditors arguing landlords should be illegal and others arguing co-ownership is a bad idea. Yes, let’s build millions of single room houses for everyone who is single that span the entire continent.

4 people with 5k each can get almost 20% down on a 350k propery. Thats pretty decent except in the most expensive cities

Mostly not yet. They did restrict the bandwidth on relay, but anyone with half a brain can open a port and that still allows apps to direct connect without relay. Honestly I wish could just force it to never relay since randomly my iPad will use relay even when I’m on the same network but that’s more because the new iOS app since the rewrite is dogshit.

Lifetime pass since 2012 here.

The lone star tick actually usually does not carry Lyme, you are thinking of deer ticks. This is an entirely different condition that is caused by an allergic reaction to the lone star ticks saliva which your body confuses with carbohydrates found in most mammalian meats leading to a long term meat allergy.

The fun thing about the way most California cities meter their street parking means a kei car effectively wastes as much parking as a lifted F150 since we space the spaces out for the meters.

You could fit 3 kei cars there, but two of them will get parking tickets
