As long as you leave them alone if they don’t want to talk, great!

But while OP may not have use of the data now, they might have a use for it in the future.

A few reasons.

First, the alcohol industry has been a lot more sensitive to being perceived as selling to kids than the tobacco industry was. Because of it, there was never the push to ban advertising and conduct a mass media effort to control teen drinking as there was teen smoking.

Second, people still remember prohibition in the USA and how it was a failure. So, you’ve got a lot of people worried about a slippery slope in comparison to tobacco.

Third, the alcohol industry is far better at lobbying around specific items that would actually prevent consumption. For instance, alcoholic beverages don’t need to show nutritional information. It will bend in a way that keeps access open.

The law is different in different parts of the world. In some parts of the world, alcohol can only be purchased in specialty stores. In other parts, it can be bought effectively anywhere.

In line with OP’s question, CVS made a big deal about banning the sale of tobacco in all its pharmacies a decade ago, saying it could not sell tobacco products and be a health care provider at the same time. However, in some states, a CVS will have rows of alcohol for sale because it is legal to sell there.

This comic is several months old. If you didn’t see it there yet, you probably aren’t going to see it.

The US isn’t going to get that trust back that it had before.

There are also going to be issues with how bleeding edge AI gets sold. If the AI that can detect security exploits is real, the AI owner isn’t going to sell open access to that model.

I suspect that, if the AI is really that good for certain tasks, it won’t get sold on a token model but something more akin to human work.

The Suez Crisis was the last major diplomatic action that the USA took against Israel, with the USA using its ownership of British and French debt to keep the Suez Canal Egyptian. After that, Israel invested a lot help shape the perception of Israel to Americans and invested in several pro-Israeli candidates in both parties through AIPAC and other means. It worked well.

What would you do if he wasn’t your dad? What if it was another employee that made a mistake like this?

Even though he is your dad, he is also your employee in this case. If your relationship with him is healthy, this should be something you two can work through in both family and in business.

Have you tried various sources of water? I can usually taste the difference between various bottled waters, let alone tap water from different places. Maybe you don’t like the local tap water.

Old money isn’t about money, but class.

He was an improvement on Yeltsin and he was popular. However, his grasp on power beyond term limits have been a net negative on the country.

Not likely. Chinese migrants in the USA went everywhere to start various small businesses. It is the reason why there is that Chinese family running two grocery stores in Sinners. Chinese families would be rare, but they would be everywhere.

Your best bet is the rural Mountain West or Appalachia, but even then you’re likely going to find some Chinese people living there.

To add on what you said since it was the most complete answer, the first credit cards didn’t start with a magnetic chip but had raised numbering that cashiers would emboss the numbering onto a carbon copy slip. The shop would keep two copies of the receipt and the customer would keep the third.

The switch to magnetic swipe on North America took a while because it required a phone connection to verify the card number. Europe switched to chips earlier than North America in part because a lot is stores didn’t have the required phone/data connections for continuous use, so the chip was developed to be used in cases where there wasn’t any connectivity with the card reader.

Australia and New Zealand have a points based immigration system that you can check online. That would be the first place I’d look.

I think he’s credible as a witness for what he’s seen. He seems believable, but I haven’t looked into any criticism of what he’s said.

One modern issue is that sites like OnlyFans has caused is a unique type of spam as various models spam in a lot of places in order to build their audience.

Looking at the list of government expenditures, I don’t see space exploration as problematic as other things we are spending money on.
