This question baffles me because it seems like a total non-issue to me as a European. How do Americans get stuff for their house around? Do you not have delivery or truck/van/trailer rental services, and are all your appliances (and not just fridges/freezers which are apparently hilariously big in the US) so American-sized that you can't fit them in an average family hatchback/crossover/SUV? Or do you regularly move all of your stuff from one house to another?

Make it happen anyway, just so Trump and his lawyers have to deal with unpleasant shit on a Saturday.

Laughs in European

I've never had to pay extra for hotspot usage even though all of the phones I've had were bought directly from the service provider.

It's easier. You need enough room for the nose to swing around because the front wheels follow a wider trajectory than the rear wheels. The access road is usually much wider than the parking spots, so backing into the spot gives you much more room to maneuver.

You also have much better visibility overall. If you go in nose first, you can't see the front corners of your car, and you also have terrible visibility when backing out of the spot. If you back in, the mirrors show you exactly how close you are to the cars around you, and you have an unobstructed view when you leave.

Wireless charging pad. Yes, it's less efficient than wired charging, but it's just so convenient.

If paying isn't owning, piracy isn't stealing.

And before that, they were in a separate section like they are now, but it had a thing you could click to hide that section entirely for 30 days.

Just because it's less bad than the previous thing doesn't mean it's good.

Taking naps with our dog and hearing and feeling her peaceful breathing as she sleeps on my pillow with her snoot snuzzled against my face or ear.

I didn't say it was legit, I said it has always worked for me.

I've bought a ton of stuff (both games and DLC) from G2A and never had any issues.

I have to smell the black pepper shaker any time I use it. Not because I'm worried that there's something wrong with it, but because black pepper smells good.

It's all a blur because I was maybe like 6 or 7 at the time, but I'm fairly certain it was Red Hat. The original, not RHEL.

I have vivid memories of playing a game that involved collecting gems and avoiding falling rocks in a maze, similar to Boulder Dash or Emerald Mine. I have no idea what it was, but I know it wasn't Rocks'n'Diamonds because I played that a lot and the graphics were different.
