If only we had a series of pneumatic tubes connecting all our homes, you could order something online and have it pop up right next to you minutes later.
Well not always - this story is about how for years and years there was a deadlock between the two parties at the FEC that has now been broken by a Democratic board member shocking everyone and siding with the Republicans.
What do all the people downvoting it based on the title assume it means?
Any time a company is pushing a change this hard I know it’s not something I want.

Trump may try to lie and cheat his way to the presidency in the face of an electoral loss, but he’d have even less luck with that in 2024 as a challenger than he did in 2020 as the incumbent president.

Currently based in NYC, but getting ready for a big launch in Minneapolis in response to the incumbent rideshare companies pulling out of the city in protest of increased rideshare regulation.

Yeah exactly - the proposal here is to have a driver-owned worker cooperative run the app.
Haha probably better to keep the tube closer to the surface of the Earth but otherwise yes.
