I've looked up flights to Bermuda from Baltimore that uses the exact same flight from Philly as if I left from Philly, but by leaving out of Baltimore with that layover I would save $150.
Sometimes it just comes down to folks seeing "direct" or "non-stop" and are willing to pay more for that "perk"
No, LTE was not/is not 4G. LTE Advanced *would* have met the requirements. Marketing folks fudged the names for marketing reasons. Look at the ITU classifications and the actual specs of LTE
No kidding. Ever pull the pressure relief valve on a compressor tank with ~130 psi in it? Even if it's a horizontal tank with wheels on one end and rubber feet on the other, with the vavle sending air that "would direct" the tank towards the wheels, it doesn't move an inch and is loud. I guess the only places this could be used would be drag strip or track days
Maybe they'll find a way to tame the rocket and use it more like a turbine engine like Plymouth did (and the one motorcycle Jay Leno has that uses a turbine from a helicopter)
The elevator stations. And the tunnels are straight shots. Watch the interview with him. Basically this allows you to drive an electric car potentially of any make/model at 150 MPH and then take an "off ramp" to exit.
See the bottle neck there? The elevators are slow, the "off ramps" will get congested and backed up, then the main flow will as well. (Or if a car breaks down). Hopefully there aren't many if any bends or that 150mph car may not see the backup in time.
Sure this may help with extremely long straight stretches for a while, until it becomes popular that use increases. It has the same issues as current roadways. And when repairs need to be made, then what? You'll have a ton of people backed up in a single line in a tunnel, blocking off ramps etc because no one knows how to use two lanes and zipper to not make the backup even worse.
Ham radio Edit Main article: Etymology of ham radio The term "ham" was first a pejorative term used in professional wired telegraphy during the 19th century, to mock operators with poor Morse code sending skills ("ham-fisted").[10][11][12][13] This term continued to be used after the invention of radio and the proliferation of amateur experimentation with wireless telegraphy; among land- and sea-based professional radio operators, "ham" amateurs were considered a nuisance. The use of "ham" meaning "amateurish or unskilled" survives today in other disciplines ("ham actor").
The amateur radio community subsequently began to reclaim the word as a label of pride,[14] and by the mid-20th century it had lost its pejorative meaning. Although not an acronym, it is often mistakenly written as "HAM" in capital letters.
Many places do it because of the typical purchase amounts compared to the fees the processor charge.
I know that's not true for all companies/businesses, but around here a lot of smaller ones operate this way.
As a consumer, it tends to be easier to monitor spending when you have a physical representation of dollars in a wallet vs a piece of plastic for a lot of folks
I'm about ready to go this route too in the name of disconnecting more.
Sucks more places don't or can't give a discount for cash only sales. A good number of smaller gas stations around my area do for the price of gas (you save around 10 a gallon if you pay cash)
What the hell is a piston bearing? Do you mean piston ring or connecting rod bearing? A gudeon / wrist pin?
Wheel bearing and hub assembly are exactly as they state. One is literally just a bearing (made of a bearing and race, or a sealed bearing) that is pressed into the hub, and the other is the bearing already pressed into the hub as an assembly.

Replace wouldn't with shouldn't in that but then the other car part.
My car shouldn't pop out of park in certain situations, but was recalled because it could. Cars shouldn't lose power on the freeway, but they do. Traffic lights shouldn't quit working, but they do.

What this says to me is there's no checks on an application calling files belonging to another within Android.
Granted security apps would need this ability, but by default android should block this and only grant by given permission, and in that case it doesn't seem like the Play Store would have helped as there's other Android apps I've downloaded from the Play Store that do similar things (including with purchasing optional add-ons etc)
It also tends to be harder for folks to budget and actually realize,e what they're spending until it's too late.
With cash, you have that "balance" right there with your looking you in the face every time you go to use it, with plastic it's "just a card and a swipe" with no up front indication of what you have left. Not only that, once you hand over cash, it's gone. With plastic, you can swipe and that debit may not show up for a few days, and if you forgot about it.. it could be a nasty surprise
Baseball balls and strikes may be harder than you think. The strike zone is NOT a fixed item but varies as it's technically based over the plate and between the knees to around the arm pits. Each batter based on height and stance style has quite a varied strike zone height.
Ordered something and did next day delivery to an Amazon store as I needed the part for a repair and no one locally had it. The site said it would be there by 8pm, although I was hoping it would arrive sooner as the store is in the town I work in, where as I live 40 minutes away and it was to be delivered on a Friday.
Long store short, 8:03pm hit before Amazon updated that my package was delayed by the carrier but they couldn't give a why, even though the status in the app said the package had been delivered to the carrier. It updated my delivery to be "Monday to Wednesday". I called Amazon to complain as I paid the extra for the next day. They refunded that cost and I asked how they didn't know when it would arrive as THEY are the carrier. They said it would be there Tuesday. Guess what arrived over the weekend (I can't remember now if it showed up Saturday or Sunday).
Amazon's Logistics/delivery service (or whoever they contract out to and slap that label on) is utter crap.

They also price by terms.

No kidding. Then again how many people now adays don't even know how to swap a rim and tire
Yup, damn ticks.
It's been done! It's call Va-poo-rize!

Sorry, meant number they used not called
Granted I don't know the number called, but the Facebook system may have just asked Google and parsed the results, nothing shadow about it..
I mean I asked Google and one of the many pages I received was https://www.ccis.northeastern.edu/people/alan-mislove/ which contains a phone number...

I should also qualify I have mechanic backgrounds
Wheel bearings, not wheel bears.. that's what I get for quick typing on a phone
As I stated, if you'd read, they are as their names state.
Please re-read my comment and read the whole thing.
I said wheel bears are just the bearing (sealed on piece or with a race as common in trucks). This then pressed into a hub
A hub assembly is a pre-assembled bearing and hub.
What the hell is a piston bearing?
Do you mean piston ring or connecting rod bearing? A gudeon / wrist pin?
Wheel bearing and hub assembly are exactly as they state.
One is literally just a bearing (made of a bearing and race, or a sealed bearing) that is pressed into the hub, and the other is the bearing already pressed into the hub as an assembly.
Wheel bearing: https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/honda,1997,prelude,2.2l+l4,1170201,brake+&+wheel+hub,wheel+bearing,1672
Hub assembly (bearing already in hub):

Thats due to an older, over used outlet that SHOULD be replaced
"no car would stop to honk at another car for entering the the highway the wrong way; but then that other car wouldn't be doing that."
Replace wouldn't with shouldn't in that but then the other car part.
My car shouldn't pop out of park in certain situations, but was recalled because it could.
Cars shouldn't lose power on the freeway, but they do.
Traffic lights shouldn't quit working, but they do.
Self driving cars shouldn't make mistakes, but they will because they're just like any other object that can encounter situations the computer logic can't handle or machanical or electrical issues.
There's no way an autonomous car would navigate back to my camp grounds, nor would I want one to try as you really have to have a feel and read of the terrain depending on the season and conditions, including shifting to what an autonomous car would freak out thinking of being off the road to miss wash puts, ruts, ice, etc
Exactly this and my thoughts.
What this says to me is there's no checks on an application calling files belonging to another within Android.
Granted security apps would need this ability, but by default android should block this and only grant by given permission, and in that case it doesn't seem like the Play Store would have helped as there's other Android apps I've downloaded from the Play Store that do similar things (including with purchasing optional add-ons etc)

Not me. When the last mile is handled by the USPS, it arrives on the day marked in my mailbox or on the front porch as expected.
The times I tried Amazon delivery, which was to THEIR OWN STORE, it was late every time.
Baseball balls and strikes may be harder than you think. The strike zone is NOT a fixed item but varies as it's technically based over the plate and between the knees to around the arm pits. Each batter based on height and stance style has quite a varied strike zone height.
Not only this, but they're logistics suck.

All because Bluecat IPAM requires the Silverlight crap, and I was sick of firing up a VM or VDI *just* to adjust permissions on a DNS or IP record
