I don't think they can take away from your benefits if you are retired (as opposed to disability). I've worked with a couple of people who were retired and I'm sure they were bringing home over $100k (their pre-retirement salary) in addition to SS and one or two pensions.
"I'm a triple dipper" joked one guy I worked with, and that wasn't including hat he was making part time at the company. Sadly for him it didn't last long.
I've been in a few countries where all that was required is an auto (no insurance or seatbelts required). Taxi sign isn't even required, they come up to you and ask if you want a ride. I even got a room for a couple of night by talking to someone in a laundromat once.
When I installed my solar, I looked at what sort of incentives that I could get. It would have paid a good chunk of it but after seeing all of the 'legalese ' and who owned what, I decided to go it alone.
Now a few years later, my system is 100% paid off (ie, already paid for itself), all mine, making free electricity and don't have to bother with any companies. And since I built up a good base system, I can add quite a few more panels without any additional cost. In the years since I set up my system, the price of solar panels have fallen to a less than one year payback time
I've raised chickens and they seem to do it. I had one chicken where the others ganged up on it and pecked out its side. The was a huge hole where you could see all of its organs. That chicken lived another 6 months like that, but with some sort of scab growing over.
Faith is confidence or trust in a person or thing; or the observance of an obligation from loyalty; or fidelity to a person, promise, engagement; or a belief not based on proof
The evil demon, also known as evil genius, and occasionally as malicious demon or genius malignus, is a concept in Cartesian philosophy. In his 1641 Meditations on First Philosophy, René Descartes hypothesized the existence of an evil demon, a personification who is "as clever and deceitful as he is powerful, who has directed his entire effort to misleading me." The evil demon presents a complete illusion of an external world, including other minds, to Descartes' senses, where there is no such external world in existence. The evil genius also presents to Descartes' senses a complete illusion of his own body, including all bodily sensations, when Descartes has no body. Some Cartesian scholars opine that the demon is also omnipotent, and thus capable of altering mathematics and the fundamentals of logic, though omnipotence of the evil demon would be contrary to Descartes' hypothesis, as he rebuked accusations of the evil demon having omnipotence.
Dumbing down is the deliberate oversimplification of intellectual content within education, literature, cinema, news, and culture in order to relate to those unable to assimilate more sophisticated information.
This has happened to many internet websites also. Especially in the last 8 years or so that I've noticed.
There has never been a time in history when it wasn't politicized. NASA was never all that popular, even in the heyday of Apollo. I think the highest it has ever been was during Apollo 11.
Too big of an area. Too many atmospheric differences, too many paths. Sounds like an interesting problem, but don't think solvable. If you could place the cancelling speakers next to the broadcast speakers (or listener) then yes.

Does that include DIY?

The rest of the world is funny like that.
It's possible, but will require a hundred kwh of batteries to power your AC though the night during monsoon season in AZ
piles upon piles of legalese to build up

Aren't they the reptilian` lizard people?
It's interesting that he's received death threats over that book.

Try Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business by Niel Postman. A critique written in 1985.
Cleaning out my parent's house, I recently found a box with a local newspaper (I think St. Louis, MO) from 1962 that would disagree with you.
True support is where money is spent.
Fine, 30 years. The ARPANET, and so the Internet, was born on August 30, 1969, when BBN delivered the first Interface Message Processor (IMP) to Leonard Kleinrock's Network Measurements Center at UCLA. I built an intent connected device (coffee pot) ca 1995 using a pc/104 board and linux running SLIP. See also Trojan Room coffee pot (1991).
Don't confuse internet with www.
The future is in cyberspace, not outerspace.
somehow, become politicized.
There has never been a time in history when it wasn't politicized. NASA was never all that popular, even in the heyday of Apollo. I think the highest it has ever been was during Apollo 11.
The IoT existed 40 years before it was named the IoT.

True, but famine is more of a political problem (as a weapon).
Hey! You're right. I never noticed (except for the part about no longer being News or Nerds
