I don't know about timer bars, but in Bangkok they have countdown timers for both green and red. You always know exactly how many seconds until the light changes at a glance. Better than a timer bar, I would think.

There are lots of places. As an example, there are no McDonalds in Vietnam.

They have a problem. Next question.

Oh, I'm sorry, did you think you were being insightful?

And those people have a serious problem and should seek mental help. Next question.

Will the trolls come out, out, out
Will the trolls come out and play today

Will you lose that job that you don't love
Will the law come down and save your fate
Will your woman go and cheat behind your back
Will your best friend lie right to your face
Will you put down money that you don't have
Will you go and gamble that life away
Will you lose that love that you always had

Will the trolls come out, out, out,
Will the trolls come out and play today.

Yes, but only because this will probably become law in California. Yee is only average for the California state legislature. That guy from Missouri, while even stupider than Yee, was exceptional and much stupider than the average , even in Missouri.

I teach in a high school in an overseas US Territory. Three months during the summer, two weeks at christmas, etc. When school's out I'm off travelling.

Because you have no idea how little it costs to live. My necessities cost less than $15k per year. I could get even cheaper if I wanted to. I live alone, my rent is under $300 per month, and I don't waste money on crap I don't need (no tv, no internet at home, prepaid phone, etc.).

California state lawmakers are a special brand of stupid. I'd say that they were Congress's autistic cousins, but people with autism aren't actually stupid.

I only make $30k a year and spend 4 months of it bumping around the world. How much you make is irrelevant. How much you spend on nonpriorities is.

"Suck it Armstrong! No, not Neil. I meant Lance."

Really? First post wasn't Vader's "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"?

The drug cartels get all their weapons from the US. It's an uneven playing field.

There's always money in the shit pipes.

No, it's really not (at least not in the sense you mean). It's only limited by the amount of relevant raw materials you have on hand (there are no limitations on weight or size with this kind of drive), and no other (currently achievable) propulsion tech can match the thrust/power of a nuclear pulse rocket. In other words: the same limitations apply to an ion drive (which is limited by the power-generating facilities you carry on board, and no, solar power won't work in INTERSTELLAR travel) without the other advantages.
