I save a lot more by just hanging decent wood shelves on the wall.
She is not high maintenance, but she does recognize cheap shit when she sees it. Do your really want to have particle board furniture in your home? That shit is for dorm rooms.
Or you can get $100 worth of lumber and do it yourself. You could also get $500-$1000 worth of unfinished furniture and finish it.
There is also cost to removing everything from the shelf and placing it on the new one, that you must also construct.
Putting shelves up, by screwing brackets into the studs and putting up big wood planks is the cheapest reasonable answer I can find. Plus you can put them up in interesting ways and fit them into or around corners.
I have different expectations. When I spend $800 on a flight round trip I do expect a $100 hotel if they fuck up. Not my problem. Air travel is like that because we allow it. Honestly I think that they should start having to refund a percentage of the ticket cost for every half hour they are late, if the problem is within their control like a broken plane.
I have been on flights that were overbooked, planes that were broken only to be discovered after we boarded and delays extending past 12 hours. To be extra jerks they of course just made the delay one or two hours at a time so they could avoid compensating us for food or toiletries. Shit happens, but how they handle it is beyond poor customer service.
People bring those bags aboard because airlines seem to love to lose or break stuff. If Fedex can manage 99%+ delivery to the right place at the right time surely the airlines could too.
For the same reason they have people answering the phones. Having the conversation in public is much better for everyone who is not the big company.
Lost luggage happens, some airlines do a better job finding it or compensating. The fact that the person who lost it was not a direct employee of BA does not matter. BA was handed the bags and is responsible for them until they are handed back to their owner.
Only if you are silly enough to not consider things interchangeable. Which they are.
There was demand for travel faster than horses, this is what made those things possible and why they survived in the market. You can today invent a machine that makes hats out of your own feces, you will not make money with this since there is no demand for feces hats.
If you can not get it, then try thinking about it. Like the other poster stated, no one wants a drill, they want to be able to make holes in stuff with the least effort.
Sorry about our deserts not being boiled, but froyo is frozen yogurt which even you should be able to get. How is it exactly that the limeys are unaware of lime pie?
I am sure it can for a very short time. The food is decent, the particle board furniture is good for what it is. They are meant to generally be decorative and not that durable.
Go look at what shelves/bookcases cost and get back to me. I am already putting up shelf supports and wood planks as that is cheaper than real bookcases.
I used to think that, but at some point I can't keep doing it. What the hell am I supposed to do with the books? I have an entire wall covered in them. Unless I want my house to look like a library something has to give.
I get that, I just thought they could sell the raw ore, and from their bootstrap their way to full battery production. Sell X ore futures, use cash to build road, sell more ore use cash to build refinery, and so on.
It does not look like GM wants a cheaper Volt. They are going the other way with a Volt Cadillac.
The question I have is why anyone would pay Tesla prices for a Volt in Cadillac clothes. Also I doubt there is a big crossover between the Rapper and Granny sets with the Hybrid/Electric car buyer set.
A cheaper Volt would be nice though, I could afford one but I can't justify spending that much on a car to myself.
Excuse me for being sane here, but why does he not sell the lithium to finance the battery production infrastructure? Then he would not need any international investment.
Make a fortune in the console industry? My understanding is that has not happened. They move profit into the entertainment division by sticking unrelated stuff in it.

Avoid them because they suck, not because they sometimes break stuff.
Some lose more luggage than others, some will go beyond the written terms to help you. Just like some carriers are nicer to deal with than others.

Until it gets a single scratch or starts to sag as it will with time. Buying good furniture once vs buying that stuff over and over is worth it.
Now go find one the wife will tolerate, not some particle board thing.

Yes, but they don't have the other downsides.
Internal combustion is pretty inefficient as well. Plus it produces all kinds of fun by products.
I used to think that, but at some point I can't keep doing it. What the hell am I supposed to do with the books? I have an entire wall covered in them. Unless I want my house to look like a library something has to give.
I thought it was to build roads, sanitation and the basics of civilization. Your local mafia does that?

Internal combustion is not the only method to get electricity or work from liquid fuel. Methanol Fuel cells are well known.
There were no smartphones before the iPhone? Really? There was no desire for portable computing?
There was no demand for cars before Tesla?
Demand exists before supply. If no one wanted to ever go faster than a horse the car would never have been a success.

No problem, they can bring back the Zune name!
Microsoft ZunePhone, how can that not be a huge success?
Do you have another explanation?
From what I can see they sent in Elop to use Nokia to make WinPhone popular and if that failed were prepared to buy Nokia to keep it selling WinPhone.
