  1. It's like those Fisher Price toy car dashboards. Kids just like having knobs that click and buttons that tap, and horns to honk.

  2. I mean. . . you do understand that people live outside of NYC, right? I mean, you can build a walk-in business with a ton of walk-in customers in dozens, if not hundreds of cities. It's not like "Manhattan or mail-order."

  3. The issue is that the people who own these buildings paid a fortune for them, and couldn't get the returns they need if they permanently leased them out at a tiny price. I do think they need to drive traffic though, so they need to figure out some sort of tiered lease pricing, like offer a really good deal on the short term of the lease, set to raise significantly after a year or two.

  4. In before the new state does exactly the same stuff the old state did, because that's just how business works.

  5. What would lead you to think that the government "does not care about protecting kids?" The government is the people, the government is elected by the people to represent them. Are you saying that people in general do not care about protecting kids? While I can agree with you that these legal tools can be used for purposes outside of reducing inappropriate content involving children, it is also a fact that a lot of these encrypting tools ARE used to disguise such materials, and that it would be a good idea to have methods of piercing that veil.

  6.  @fullaregrets5015  Wow, chat GPT is getting lazy. Usually it could at least deliver a paragraph. Now it's just "u r bot."

  7. New York had the worst of it because it's a highly concentrated population and it got hit first before anyone knew what was going on. What happened in New York was almost inevitable (short of a better federal response early on). But NYC is way BETTER than the US if you only track the stuff that happened after that initial spike boiled off. New York did things right, kept doing things right, and it WAY better than most parts of the country, given how tightly packed it is. The parts that "are doing better" is only because they aren't as densely packed, don't have nearly as many people coming and going to spread it around from outside, and didn't really get hit by it until there was more infrastructure in place to handle it. I mean, in terms of deaths, florida is currenly having dozens, up ot a few hundred deaths _per day," whereas New York has been below 15 per day since mid summer.

  8. It's got character though! Still as it's a restaurant, if I owned that property, if I wanted to do some business, I would ask myself "what is this place worth 'in good times?'" If it's $40,000 a month or whatever, ok, that's the baseline. I would tell a customer, "you lease out this space right now, and you pay me, I don't know, $25,000 a month, even $15,000 a month, something fairly small but better than nothing, but something they could afford to keep up with, but that is contingent on the lockdown levels. It would go up as the restrictions lift, but I would lay out how and when it would go up in advance, and I would say that I'd cap the price at maybe $35K for at least five years, some amount less than the going rate, some deal like that, to say "you invest in this deal now? It'll work out to a good deal for you for a few years at least." I bet they could make more money that way than just leaving it vacant.
