Q: Travel Badge Ranking List

Mark MayoIn a fun attempt to try to add some competition other than just rep, let's look at the number of badges earned on the site. I'll list some of the higher ones, but feel free to add / update rankings - I'll make it an editable answer. Hopefully it'll also encourage people to try for some of the r...

Q: Have a feed for Hot Network Questions

DaniilCan we have a feed in chat if hot network question? This could help us: See what questions are hot just out of interest Pay special attention to edging them An example of what this could look like is this room on Ask Different or we could have it in the main room. What does everyone think?

feature-request chat

@MarkMayo, no use to link to a question that is out of date. If it is a little out we can adjust but I guess everybody still active (and some not) will have more badges by now.
I am at 13-98-199 but do not feature in the list at the moment.

@chx, I think I can go on till I run out of 'easy to answer' old questions, have been doing one every second day all of August, one a day in September. But we can have questions being closed and people plain forgetting to put the answer in, as @MarkMayo has proven to be good in.

@MarkJohnson see the Motor Vehicle Act of BC for one example: quickscribe.bc.ca/secure/pdfs/110.pdf
"a person who has become ordinarily resident in British Columbia and who has a
validly issued and subsisting driver’s or operator’s licence or permit issued
according to the laws of the jurisdiction where he or she was most recently
ordinarily resident, for 90 days after he or she became ordinarily resident in
British Columbia"
is the part which talks about converting licenses once you become a resident
but nowhere does it require that your license is issued by your state of residence, if you're just a tourist
"a person who has a validly issued and subsisting driver’s or operator’s licence or
permit issued according to the laws where he or she is ordinarily resident, for 6
months from the date he or she last entered British Columbia;"
then this section kicks in, which talks about foreign licenses

Since he is a resident of Maryland and if it is correct that Maryland requires after 6 months a non Maryland license to be converted, then he does not have a valid license for his state of residence. The police, who also will know that a Drivers License is residence based (as in BC) may not make that distinction. Also once the original license expires, it cannot be renewed if he idsss not a resident. I stand by my advice.

Q: Which buildings is this? And where is it located?

Daan van wouw This is a picture of the skyline that is printed in the elevator of my building. It's killing me that I don't know where it is. Can anyone help me?

identify-this north-america
but struggling!

@MarkJohnson Maryland only requires a conversion if you want to drive in Maryland
its perfectly legal not to convert if you don't drive there
my hunch is that in real life this distinction doesn't matter
but if you know of court cases which show otherwise, I'd be curious to see one

I've just changed a few
but there are 50+ questions with 'Shengen' in them, not Schengen
if anyone feels bored, changing a couple a day would be nice, and adding schengen or schengen-visas where appropriate
also travel.stackexchange.com/questions/146651/… needs a vote, if you feel it's worthy. If not, let me know why ;)
