I never lived in a pedestrians-only street myself so I don't know. Occasional access for residents may be tolerated. In the case of the photo above it's not clear whether there are resident buldings, but it's amazing what muscles and/or money can do.

It's Paris, where car ownership is only about 20% of the population IIRC. Amazingly, people manage to survive without them.

I bought one like this recently, because I shave my head and without one it's either too cold or too sunny. I love it, but my kids keep saying it's an "old man's hat". I don't care, I've had people in the street stop me to tell me it looks good .

I don't know if it's actually feasible, but if it's really unobtrusive and clearly stated then yes I think that would be fair game.

First, crypto is mostly a scam. But if it's clearly said that visiting the site will use 100% of your cpu, drain the battery and make your device crawl while the fans go crazy, then sure why not. Otherwise it's a dark pattern. And I thought mining on cpus was near useless these days, but that may depend on the specific blockchain used.

Mining crypto on visitors' machines. (/s)

They have very solid riffs, but guitar solos were never Kerry King's strong point.

"Metal" is a very wide genre. There's not a lot in common between e.g. Nightwish and Full of Hell. I personally wouldn't put Bon Jovi and Deff Leppard in there, they're more what is called "hard FM", but like every genre the borders are fluid.

The book is pretty campy already, I can easily imagine the movie being awful!

I loved the John dies at the end series, I didn't know they were adapted into a movie!

The camera may not be top quality, but honestly I don't care. I've used it maybe 1h tops for job interviews for the last 2 years, I don't give a fuck if it's grainy, that's not what I look for in a laptop.
