You’ll never see this in New York City or in DC for example.

There are surface lots in Manhattan, though they are being developed into multistory buildings and no new surface lots are being constructed.

Some of the remaining surface lots probably continue to operate as placeholders for "future tall building site", while rights/price/building codes are being hashed out. In the meantime, you can charge a lot of money for a parking spot in Manhattan.

But someone recently said he revived the NFT market single-handedly, with people making a bigly 1000% return!

"anyone who tried to harm the robot would be identified and arrested."

But what if you sneak up and dress it like a Dalek, maybe with a speaker that yells out, "IT IS THE DOCTOR! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!" That cannot possibly be a crime.

There's barely any advantage to being on Mars compared to orbiting some random Lagrange point or the sun itself.

Last episode where we saw her as the child soldier

Anakin: I wish the Jedi code didn't forbid domestic relationships, as I could lead a happy life with Padme.

Besides the earthquake, there was also a literal rain of fire across the planet, like a blast furnace, that likely killed everything that wasn't underground or underwater.

Instead of drilling a hole, another way to do it is to slam an asteroid on the other side of the planet.

The loophole seems to be having an app pinned to the screen (I've never done this, but it presumably keeps the phone from locking) while requiring you to have an unlocked phone to use NFC payments. This doesn't seem to be a common scenario (I can imagine doing this in some sort of kiosk mode, or giving the phone to a kid and locking the app so he can't wander around).

It was also Awesome Clone Wars Anakin, rather than Pouty RotS Anakin.

Sad that we didn’t get Ashley dubbed as young Ahsoka

To be fair, your voice sounds different to you than when other people hear it, because of our sinuses, etc. I imagine it's worse for Ahsoka with those montrals and lekku covering up her ears.

Samuel Delany, if you're interested in look at New Wave stuff.
