I think Singapore handles it well, any residential property can only be rented for minimum of six months, less than six months and it must be registered a commercial property and be in a zone that allows commercial activity.

It doesn't ban AirBnB specifically, but it solves this problem.

What do you mean, I have a nick, fake email, fake name and I'm enjoying my free games for years.

No way a bloke on my street named Cody died in car accident at the ripe age of 33. Conspiracy is real. /s

I swear I have seen a comment very similar to this, not word for word, but pretty much similar structure and words and points describing Kanye.

I think they explained it, the reason they could afford it was because Monica's grandmother lived there, and they've been paying 1950s rent because of rent control or something. Something similar for phoebe as well. Anyway show never explains how joey/chandler/Ross can afford those big houses.

Ok, so I checked a superstore near me, and my updated understanding is

  1. anything disinfecting is alcohol based be it for skin or for for objects,
  2. things designed for cleaning skin or to be "refreshing/fragrant" are mostly water based.
  3. However there are skin cleaning products that are marketed more towards deep clean or dirt/oil/grease etc are almost always alcohol based.
  4. cleaning objects intended wet wipes also mostly alcohol based. But if marketed as "gentle" could be water based.

So baby wipes being meant to clean skin and be "gentle", it makes sense that they are water based.

Maybe my understanding is wrong, and I don't use wet wipes that often, but the ones I have I bought like a year ago 60% ethanol v/v.

Well, I have had two people tell me very rudely that I'm an asshole because I got their pronoun wrong because they had it at the start of the presentation somewhere. And I also have had dozens more who corrected me politely a couple of times and then I'd just remember the right pronouns.

Assholes are assholes magrinalized or not.

I understand it's "wet" from some alcohol/aldehydes and not from water.

Coriander is peppery? How?

Yeah occupied, but not annexed. I guess when people make these arguments their point is even if it was occupied by a foreign power, foreign power recognized them as separate country.
