  • Easy fix for tile lines showing?

    Jump

  • That's rough. Those tiles are broken because they were installed improperly. The proper fix is to redo.

    However, that's expensive and or time consuming. A rug or bath mats would cover it in a pinch. I recommend not doing a tile surface refinish (sold as kits like Rust-Oleum) because the cracks will just show through again shortly, and you'll lose any non-slip properties those floor tiles have.

  • I interpret this as them trying to sell 10,000 cameras. Not footage from their customers.

  • To give them a designated spot to stay in so they're not wandering around bothering people waiting to collect their bags from baggage claim. It limits disruptive and frankly antisocial behavior.

  • Free Speech Booth, St Louis airport

    Jump

  • The U.S. Supreme Court determined that airports could not be considered a public forum to practice free speech. According to the ruling, airports exist solely for air travel and not for free expression.

    Prior to the court’s decision, the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, a not-for-profit religious corporation, would often practice going into public places to distribute literature and asking for donations to support their religion.

    Since 1992, airports across the country have adopted regulations governing speech, such as Lambert’s “Free Speech” booths.

  • I'm in a Vanguard target fund and I'm up 7.8% over the same period. There was a lot of red until December 2023, when it broke even. All gains are pretty much from this year looking at my returns chart.

  • Can My Landlord Do This?

    Jump

  • I understand. Maybe see if your insurance can help connect you to resources that can help you navigate this situation. You can't be the only person who's landlord said no.

  • Can My Landlord Do This?

    Jump

  • Look at question 4 though.

    If it's a service animal OP is getting, then the landlord cannot legally exclude it. However, therapy animals are specifically not service animals and are not covered by the ADA

    Q3. Are emotional support, therapy, comfort, or companion animals considered service animals under the ADA?

    A. No.  These terms are used to describe animals that provide comfort just by being with a person.  Because they have not been trained to perform a specific job or task, they do not qualify as service animals under the ADA.  However, some State or local governments have laws that allow people to take emotional support animals into public places.  You may check with your State and local government agencies to find out about these laws.

  • Protecting me by limiting my actions is insulting

  • I THINK THIS HAS TO DO WITH APP PERMISSIONS. IF YOUR APP NEEDS A PLACE TO READ/WRITE FILES, IT MAKES SENSE TO KEEP IT OUT OF YOUR DOWNLOADS FOLDER THAT COULD CONTAIN SENSITIVE INFORMATION LIKE BANK STATEMENTS OR OTHER THINGS. YOU DON'T WANT SOME RANDOM APP LOOKING AT EVERYTHING THAT ENDS UP IN YOUR DOWNLOADS FOLDER!!!

    GET RILED ABOUT GIVING THESE GREEDY DATA SNOOPING APPS THE LEAST PERMISSION POSSIBLE!!
