Just have a look into how Cooper Union. It used to be tuition free because of a massive endowment.
So what happened. Rich scumbags raided it to build a bunch of real estate projects for their own personal gain.
https://news.artnet.com/art-world/cooper-union-tuition-free-2029-1956184
Cooper Union is no longer tuition free. Sure they're trying to get it back, but good luck.
This is the same old story. Some shitbag who is already filthy rich just can't stand the fact that it's something they can't leverage to make more money for themselves.
Some things are services, not businesses.

Ahhh. Beautiful. Thanks for posting.
It reminded me of the first time I was on the west coast and experienced a sunset on the water.
It was beautiful in a different way. Maybe it's the coolness of the air at dawn here vs the warmth of the afternoon out west.
Anyway, if you've never been to a west coast beach, it's one of those little things that makes life worth living.

Why? Because I never said they don't have an expiration date and you completely ignored the point
People worked in the same masks and other PPE for weeks because they couldn't get replacements. "Starting to expire" is nonsense. Everything that has an expiration date is starting to expire, but why would you get rid of it before it is?

I know all about the ventilators, I read the news 2 years ago when they were rethinking how to treat patients.

I see, and they have a shelf life of 3 days? Thanks for clearing that up.
TIL that n95 masks don't last very long.

Hurrrrr durrrr, go make da profit.
Yeah I guess you forget the utter chaos that ensued when the city was caught flat footed and couldn't get supplies at the start of the pandemic.
It's fucking hilarious seeing all the penny punching bean counters come out of the woodwork, as if the cost of storing this stuff is an unaffordable burden compared to the mess we just went through because we didn't have it.
People never learn. Lol.

So what's your point?
It's not possible any of that PPE is expired in such a short timeframe. N-95s easily last for years.

Maybe making wrong assumptions isn't something you should be snarky about.
If only there were other places, like an hour or two away that had plenty of space that doesn't cost a fortune?
Whatever, it's going to come out that all of this shit was resold for 20x what they paid for it.

I highly doubt much of it has any expiration date that have passed. Feel free to prove me wrong.
NY is a big state, it's not as if much cheaper space couldn't be had elsewhere in NY.

Holy crap. What's the hurry?
They spent all this time and money getting this stuff now they're just going to dump it?
This couldn't be warehoused for a few years to be prepared for the next time?

Of course they did. I can imagine some bean counter who is mad that he couldn't get his shitty product dumped on the market.
Olive oil, and honey are two examples of products that are imported and often adulterated with low quality fillers.
Basically fuck you America, you get whatever bullshit we decide to send you and no one can stop it

You can't be lawfully operating a vehicle and not know you hit someone. That means, eyes on the road, both hands on the wheel, and aware of your surroundings.
There is absolutely no excuse for this. Period.
Please think before you accuse someone else of posting nonsense.

Reply to GM plans to phase out Apple CarPlay in EVs, with Google's help by ouatedephoque
Automobile touch screens are unsafe AF.
All I need is the ability to play media on my phone and cast it to the car's screen and audio system.
That's it.
Anything else to control the car needs some hardware knobs and buttons.
Car companies suck at making digital products and they need to knock it the fuck off.
