Tell us, stranger, what language do they speak on this Island of Rhode? Do they drive on the right or the left? And what foods to they eat there....we have heard tell of quahogs, stuffies, something called cabinets, and a syrup made of coffee.

Not really, it’s part of the “blue laws” and related issues. If anything the state would collect more tax since most sites now require collecting local tax. It would hurt local businesses who can’t compete with the prices however.

They probably went looking for an actual island and then gave up.

The amount of times I heard this while living in California was astounding. Like I couldn't sit here and name all 50 states, I've lost too many brain cells for that. But if you said any state name I'd know it's a state.

Anker is a Chinese held company that has some red flags re: data collection and privacy. They also own Eufy security door cams and recently had a big leak of data that they 'weren't collecting' (if you google 'eufy' it'll come up on the first page). So... not nestle bad, but easy enough to buy a BT speaker from someone else.

Palau and Marshall Islands are both their own sovereign nations too so I’m not sure why it mentions those when the top already says US only
