They have to accept all batteries and small household eWaste. Car batteries you can drop them up at Walmart or AutoZone for a 20$ core refund.

Didn't they make it almost impossible to recycle eWaste properly in the city? The nearest "station" from me that takes batteries is a best buy in Sunnyside and I'm in Ridgewood. Good luck convincing people to take a 2 hour bus ride just to get rid of their batteries. Why not do a similar program like the cans and bottles? Have collection machines and pay some small change for people to recycle. We're paying the recycling taxes anyways for these.
> Fire Commissioner Laura Kavanagh last Friday wrote to the federal Consumer Product Safety Commission, asking it to regulate lithium-ion batteries, including stopping uncertified batteries from entering the country and calling on manufacturers to make sure e-mobility devices only work with approved batteries.
This message brought to you by Apple. Vendor lock in is a piss on the right to repair bill that we just recently passed.

Think it's a good concept. At least it can glide when it runs out of battery mid flight.

I'm pretty sure you're either going to be arrested or stabbed if you observe people too intently. Dunno a single new Yorker that's comfortable with being stared at in the subway.

That gangway passage is not really soundproofed. Will be extra screechy.

It's organic bro and dead of winter. Cows stop producing that much milk late autumn. They're waiting for the bull market. Go to Wally for a good 4.35/gallon. Half of it might be calcium paint but you still need it for bone growth.

Yeah, another thing with NYC is that service has gone down the drain. 50% tip and GTFO, oh you actually still have stuff on your plate? Whatever happened to our customer or king?

There's definitely a "lunch time" stagnation on trading. But this holds water if there's no news or calendar activities.

Reply to NYC's AI bias law is delayed until April 2023, but when it comes into effect, NYC will be the first jurisdiction mandating an AI bias order in the world, revolutionizing the use of AI tools in recruiting by Background-Net-4715
This is one of those ideas where some cousin of some member of the administration has a solution in search of a problem. Like how there's only one company in NY that can produce the city legal sprinkler pipes which makes everything building wise exorbitantly more expensive. I imagine we either end up with one approved vendor for AI services to tackle hiring and it will suck like hell or some useless consulting firm that rubber stamps projects.

Sure they did. They got rid of the bonuses first, then added 1$ for a new card, then unlimited at discount. Would have been better to just outright raise the fare than getting rid of discounts since that only helped tourists, not your working masses. Express buss fare definitely went up.

We're lucky if they get it done by 2030 🤣. But they'll make sure to raise the fair every 2 years to cover for this mistake that bloats the budget.

It's on the driver side encased in the bottom side of the windshield to make it hard to cover. Meter maids press a button and scan the thing when they prefill the tickets. At a minimum it pulls car info like temp registration (dealer license) & insurance. If neither cone up, car shouldn't be in the streets by law.

And occupy a spot with a clunker when there's an overabundance of relatively newish Ubers in the city? You do the math.

They look the car up and if the KBB is less than 2000$ then they will never tow. They know that no one in their sane mind will ever come pick up a clunker and pay 3000$ to get it.

Reply to comment by TeamMisha in LGBTQ+ Seniors to Have Access to Expanded Services in N.Y. by wdcmsnbcgay
> If I read this right, it just means income alone is not used to determine need..
Either way this is wrong and that's the problem. I don't have millions to retire and wouldn't be this but hurt if i did. The way in which this is phrased is like any other handout NY does. We have enough to serve 10000 people and we go by income in ascending order. By changing the rules someone with more income can jump in line to someone with less if they declare LGBTQ+. It doesn't specify what rules they apply now nor how much more income is the cutoff. They just let you know that because some poor people are LGBTQ+ they will discriminate against anyone who isn't and we should be ok with it because of equity.

This is not fair and a spit in the face for all other who work and pay in the system. What was wrong with income alone to qualify you for services? There's a ton of rich folks that will now benefit just because they now claim to be alphabet.
