Peak of 15?? really?. What are you in a 4000sqft home with dual air conditioners, and running your oven + burners?. I do agree a peak of 3kw is fairly low. Turn on a dryer + ac and you blow right past it. But even a peak of 7 or 8 would be good for most people.
exactly. I was able to draw 20kW at once throughout my whole home (I have a whole house energy meter). I had 4 stove burners, oven, dryer, AC, dishwasher, couple computers/tvs all running at the same time. My energy meter starts making a loud beeping noise once you go past 15. This happened once. I can count on 1 hand how many times I hit 10+. I rarely go over 5.. But in summer I can easily hit 4
Im not being lazy, im being productive. jQuery helps you get things done quickly. Could I get everything I needed done without it? Of course, but when I can get things done much faster with it, I will use it.
Ok, if you meet me right now you would associate me as a fat person(and rightfully so). Which I am at 278lbs. However, 7 months ago I was 360lbs. Thing is, just because you are skinny doesnt mean that you know shit about nutrition, and just because I am fat, doesnt mean I dont know anything about weight management. Sure before I knew "eating too much makes me fat", but I have done A LOT of research in the past 7 months and probably know a lot more than the average person about weight management even though I am fat.
And what is "normal weight"? Ever heard of skinny-fat?. You could easily be a "normal" weight at 170lbs but still be at 35% body fat percentage. Who would be healthier a 170lb person at 35% body fat or someone at 220lbs at 10%BF?
Which is why you go with the diet soda, so it isnt over 1000 calories. That diet soda saves you a couple hundred calories that can be used for weightloss or other food. Another thing -- eating adequate amount of protein is important during weight loss to minimize muscle loss and keep it mostly fat loss. That is one advantage of being overweight, is I have plenty lower body muscle from lugging my fat ass around all day for the past 20 years, so now during my weight loss I can focus more on upper body.
Seriously? I am losing a bunch of weight, and yes sometimes I go order the double burger from my local burger joint with extra cheese and a diet soda. Guess what? I account for those calories, and I will often skip the fries.
Lets check out nutritional information for mcdonalds --- Double Quarter pounder with cheese -- 740 calories Large fries -- 560 calories. For a total of 1300 calories. Large soda -- 320calories. So yes, getting that diet soda saves me 320 calorie.s
Since I need 2800 calories per day to maintain, that still leaves me with 1500 calories for the rest of the day to lose weight.
Since you are going to be eating lunch anyways you may be eating an extra what 400 calories by going to mcdonalds instead of a home cooked meal? Since I often skip the fries Ill actually be about the same.
Hey I am one of those larger people out jogging. We need to jog slow for pacing. Im lugging 100+extra lbs then most typical runners. Strap on a 60lb backpack (I will have extra leg muscle due to my weight) and see if you can run your normal speed.
I somewhat agree with you, but at the same time, you dont want a factory pumping their sludge directly into a river either. There should be reasonable effort to prevent as much pollution as you can, i.e not idling your car for 5 minutes, regulations on smokestack industries, etc. But yes humans have evolved and most people dont want to go back to caveman era, where even they of course were still effecting the environment.
Actually I do. I have a friend who basically started his own corporation (which costs like a couple bucks), then funnels his paycheck through that, and takes out dividends. And since he also has his own corporation, he is able to write certain things off.. Not sure how that works as I thought it would have to be a legitimate business expense, but he said what he does is perfectly legal
I dont know exactly how it all works, but in the end makes a fair more than I do and pays less tax than I do.
interesting. 24 inch monitor I cant tell the difference between 1440p and 2160p in that video. I do notice an ever slight small difference between 1080p and 1440p but so minor if you had 2 images side by side I probably wouldnt be able to tell you which was which. Ill have to try it on my higher res 27" screen at home.
Couldn't you of said that of Ancient Egypt, Roman Empire, British Empire, and now US? China has a fairly strong economy, why could they not be the next super power? America could become so bankrupt, that china just takes over.
Actually, it comes out of billables, as does your salary. Just because they give you a free lunch doesn't mean your salary is any lower than if they didnt. And frankly, if they have an inhouse chef, or catering, it probably is cheaper than something equivalent you can buy.
We have that in canada, and it really is confusing on what is taxable and what isnt. "Basic" groceries are not taxable. But then there are some items that wouldn't be considered basic groceries that are exempt from tax (such as an unbaked pizza from the grocery store, but a frozen pizza is taxable).
What, do you live in Nunavut? Canadian tire is everywhere. I still go by the saying "if it ain't in the flyer, don't but it at the tire" as their regular price on a lot of items (especially their in-house mastercraft bran)d is ridiculous, but then they always have 50-75% off sales. Their return policy is very good, and never had issues.
I dont normally shop for car parts, but when I needed a new car battery this year, the canadian tire car battery was pretty much always rated the best.

No, but if enough people even just did as OP was saying, charge it from grid overnight, maybe they wouldnt need as much power plants.

I would personally rather have Cs or even Ds. Oh wait, were you talking about the grades?

And your post leads directly to people becoming more dumb.

Except his steak may have less calories than your salad if you are putting on more than a tablespoon or two of salad dressing...
Sure, if you like taking laxatives with your drinks
10 cents might be a bit excessive, even if it was just 2 or 3 cents.
hey it could help someone with erectile dysfunction!
Sad part is he is probably right. Put any execution on PPV and I bet it would make a "killing"
I dont know about you, but I always play with the second row in a random order.
shouldnt that be last post?
