I know a guy who seems to have taken your advice. He tells great stories of the fun he had in his Jag e-type. Now he lives alone with his cat in his mobile home waiting for the monthly SS check so he can buy groceries.
This is why it is FAR more realistic that engineering problems need to be explained in "stupid captain talk" instead of lengthy dissertations in techno-babble.
At the beginning of a mortgage, depending on the interest rate maybe $19.99 or $18.00 of each $20 payment may be towards interest instead of the base debt. When interest rates are lower, more of the payment is toward the debt, which builds the payer's equity. Your payment (unlikely to be the same under different rates since the higher interest rate needs a higher payment to work out over the same term) under different interest rates goes towards interest or equity at different rates and that's not a broken-window fallacy comparison. The money you pay for interest is lost to time; what you pay towards equity is an important form of savings.
No, they're not worried about your roof. it's just a blanket policy that also keeps someone with a ranch from damming up a river on their own and trapping heckalot of water from the users downstream.
The vacuum idea might be a bit overkill but the tunnels do introduce interesting problems - the shockwave when entering the next tunnel and the column of air the train has to push in front of itself while inside.
One would think lifting off with all that fuel needed for the landing is inefficient compared to a splashdown parachute recovery like the shuttle's boosters. And the damage caused by landing on water with parachutes has got to be less than the explosions from the landings on the barges.
The open internet is one of the most democratizing things we have in a modern society, why is this even up for debate? What benefit would society have in enabling "Fast lanes" or "premium" connections or other nonsense? What do we get protecting commercial interests?
How would you know the open internet is one of the most democratizing things we have in a modern society? Net neutrality rules were just published to the federal register today so only today does the internet finally, at long last, start to become open? It seems net neutrality is yet another piece of social openness being hunted down by government regulation.
Easy. The cost of maintaining a country is based on the GDP
WTF? The cost of maintaining a country is based on the government budget, not GDP. GDP is a measure of economic output. If citizens have good saving habits and the government doesn't run deficits then the cost of maintaining the country can be a small fraction of GDP. For bad savers and runaway spending governments, the cost can be much higher than GDP.
And in your example, trucks are charged a highway tax all their own to help pay their share.
It's sad you work at McD's but stop hating on more economically successfull people. It's clear from your posts that you're a coffee shop marxist.
In that respect, trickle-down economics is working exactly as intended. That trickle is a leak, they're working on plugging it.
"Trickle-down economics" is a demogogue political term from William Bryan and is not a real thing in economics. It's a basically a talking point straw man.
No kidding; it used to be a few AF jokes sprinkled among the regular stories, which is effective and entertaining. The last few years it's been nothing but all day, which loses appeal quickly.

due to the Quantum Vacuum (the quantum state with the lowest possible energy)
Does the battery look like a melted Tiffany lamp?
the link to gizmag pulls up a giant best buy ad whose (x) to close button doesn't work.

A bunch of teenagers dressed provocatively trying to marry a band member.
It would drive them nuts, as it did me.
Have you not been paying attention to the rock and roll scene since before the Beatles played Shea?
which are approximately 1,000 times smaller than our galaxy
Does this mean 1/1000th the size of our galaxy? "Times smaller", "times less" and their ilk are terrible phrases.
but this bill would more or less enforce a quarantine for at-risk children
Is a quarantine NOT the sensible response?
but why would anyone else want to drive a truck?
So they can tell their friends they won't help them move.

The key word is "proposes". We shall see if this housing is built or if the movie studio project decision is reversed and that built instead.
At his age, he probably doesn't give a hoot and may just build the housing anyway.
It could start small -- say two 12 inch pipes
Your sense of scale is quite humorous. Did you see Die Hard 3? The dump trucks rumbling through the NYC water pipeline was not fiction.
1-rainwater cisterns to catch rainwater instead of dumping it in the ocean.
You must be from the east coast. A lot of western states make rainwater cisterns illegal.
puppies
They didn't want to look like Starfleet Academy. They wanted to look like a rich suburb:
the technology effort was a civil rights imperative designed to provide low-income students with devices available to their wealthier peers
Civil rights have come a long way if having iPads is now one. Do people even know what civil rights are anymore?

One of the first produced autogyros was for mail delivery and landed on the White House lawn. That one got a trophy from Pres Hoover.
my work computer could really go for one of these; this kind of performance is needed to be able to grind through all the corporate security software.

curious who will pilot this machine?
How about if Google Car's auto driver races the electric car up Pikes Peak?

The first and second versions had i5 processors. this third one has an Atom. trying to make battery life numbers and heat dissipation better?
