  1. Re:This is the way it's supposed to work on Uber Challenges Study Suggesting Its Drivers Earn $3.37 Per Hour (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    I'm betting the drivers don't take into account the full cost of using their own cars. First its not ride sharing that would mean the cost are shared by all that's false. Gas,car insurance,wear and tear licenses,inspections..tickets all have to be factored into the real cost of being a driver.Uber doesn't want people to look at those real costs or the rides prices would be in line with taxis WHO DO know the reals costs of business that's why the price difference are so different..only winners here are the people using uber..And uber laughing all the way to the bank....Losers.. driver, people who live in their jurisdiction as that's less business fees and taxs not being collected...that's MY take on it all.

  2. Re:Right to Repair? More Like the Right to Phase O on New Tech Industry Lobbying Group Argues 'Right to Repair' Laws Endanger Consumers (securityledger.com) · · Score: 1

    I fixed Windows 10 by never installing it.Everyone was warned way before hand what win 10 was..And everyone missed the warning signals, ms gave it away for FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE And tricked lazy/trusting people to installing even more copies. Lied to pro buyers and removed functionality they paid for the only people who have the real balls are people like me who just said no. If my PC dies im going Linux but i hate have to do that as linux wont allow me to install any of my software. but going windows 10 would be far worse...My times running out i have a EVGA 790i ultra MB that probable only last a few more years..Video cards are being phased out for 7 not even worth the trouble to upgrade the processor and intel probably stop making that processor as well..haven't checked though.

  3. I Just bought the Justice league bluray from VUDU it allowed me to instantly watch the movie which isn't even being sold on DVD till march 13th which will be also be shipped to me from walmart. I saved 2 bucks as that the cost of using the code that comes in the box PLUS the account doesn't cost me one red cent to watch those movies.I have 12 movies on a digital service SO IMO Redbox shouldn't be allowed to resell those codes they were never meant to be resold they were to be used as i use them pay a fee to some service for a digital copy i can watch on any device i want too.How they make money is beyond me 2 bucks one time sale and be able to watch all those movies FREE?? I can see how people abuse this, buy Hard copy DVD use code.....sell DVD still have digital copy to view any time forever people want.People shouild beable to sell the DVD but they shouldn't be able to keep a digitsl copy either....Redbox will loose at some point IMO.

    If its unsafe file a complaint with OSHA. But really what do you expect when your not paying attention to your surrounding while walking?? Apple employees must be the most conceded,stuck up people in the world. Guess walking into other people their is a normal part of the work day too.

  7. But Windows 10 is ok? on Kaspersky Lab Sues Over Second Federal Ban (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    lol why the hell is our government even allowing windows 10 on any and all government computers windows is 100% data mining everything that's done on a win 10 PC and that's OK though? in fact any software is suspect.

  8. check out bat boning.. compression would make the wood heaver on that scale boning just hardens the top layers of your bat but at no added weight. but it would make the bat a little thinner too..so P.I.T.A all the way around lol and wood bats are made of Ash which is harder then oak but less weight. would have a great bat but need to be the hulk to swing it lol

  9. flexibility AND expandability in humid conditions..hardwoods/Any type of wood are nothing more then a very hard sponge. Take purple heart, its dam near steel hard .but far less abundant then oak. the wood would still need to be covered in some kinda chemical ie polyurethane to keep it from expanding to humidity levels.seems just seem it would be far too expensive to produce..leave the hardwood to us woodworkers we don't need anymore shortages. to get a 12 broad takes 4, 3* pieces glued because their just isn't any big oaks anymore..and if you can get a full board its crazy expensive,same for pine too.
