But 16GB is a joke these days. The OS takes up 5GB of that by itself. I have had to strip my 16GB phone of most apps so I could have space to store more than a few photos and videos. My older 32GB phone took me well over a year to even run out of space.
From what I can gather on the Virginia one, the power company wants to run new lines through town on poles or out through the country on large towers. Running them through the down the main drag is the big issue. The new towers are the typical "take my land, I think not" problem. However, looking at the maps they provide, there are 5 golf courses in a town of a few thousand people.....
The shipping companies deal with thousands of Amazon boxes a day and they all pretty much look alike. The box they ship it in is probably going to be less decorated than their usual boxes. The only way the driver knows it is special is that it is addressed to a business and he throws his back out picking the damn thing up (come on, at 50TB that is still a good number of harddrives + appliance). But considering that you can get drives in bulk shipped, it will be just another day on the job.
Business is the primary customer, so it isn't like it will be dropped off on the porch and left.
1st time I was almost hit by a car was when one pulled out on the street from a driveway going forward. They stopped before the street. I was lite up with a front, rear, and side lights. I was also wearing my orange vest as well. If I was on the sidewalk, I would have been creamed.
2nd time I was hit by a car when I was crossing in the crosswalk legally (escorting my kids on their bikes). The guy stopped some distance from the line yet still managed to roll into my side trying to do a right on red.
3rd time I was almost hit by a left turner. I slammed on my brakes, but if they wasn't going fast enough, I would have been in the door. I was coming down a hill with lite traffic. All my lights on, my orange vest, and just before the sun peaked above the horizon.
That doesn't mention the few dozen other times where drivers violate my kids and I right of way when crossing streets.
You are forgetting the part where a bike is a meter wide. Hold our your arms to the sides, is that 3 ft with wiggle room or is it more. Don't forget the 3ft min safe passing distance. Minimal width of a lane that can have a bike and a car share it is 14ft.
How many versions can you go back on though with the online only? Granted a disk will go out of date and support dropped, but as long as it is installed locally I can do amendments with it.
Same here, it would be great. I could run it in VirtualBox but I dualboot anyways. However, in that case it causes me to use Dropbox for more stuff than I want.
Almost, there isn't a island that you can walk on. While we have a good idea where it is, it isn't a very dense area. Some of it even lies below the surface.
Uh, no. More likely to be injured in a car crash than on a cycle. Even with that risk involved though, it reduces other lack of health risks so you get a net positive.
Now, if they convert the miles/time spent doing the sport to steps, then you loose out cycling. I did a step based fitness challenge at work, and even though I cycle commute 10 miles round trip (with 300+ feet climbs every day), plus any times I went for a joyride, I was still falling behind in the numbers of everybody else. They scored based on miles converted from the steps. Cycling is more efficient than walking so you don't get counted for as many steps. In the end, my average was 40 miles per week over 2 months, and I still tracked my steps off my bike as well.
The junk in the ocean does not have a known location that is easy to go out and scoop up. With this they know exactly where the balls are, they are easy to get to as well. All they need to determine is the lifespan of them to collect them before they fall apart. Now, depending on how many balls slip through their fingers they may not have a noticeable impact.
My parents had one of those, and they saved a done of money on gas.....because it was so unreliable that they didn't go anywhere that they didn't want to get stuck at. And dad was a mechanic at the time. They told me that trading it in for a new Toyota was the best decision they ever made.
Because it may take a few days before the company reports to the credit card and a few more days before it shows up in your statement. With a receipt, I have it in my wallet, and I update my budget tracking when I get home. I can also look at them at any time to figure out how much I have really spent.
Suggestions for types of investment and retirement accounts, and how much you should put away?
Anything that gives you a tax break basicly. This becomes "free money" in a sense. I think the big three would be 401, IRA, and a HSA account (if offered). To start with, always take the match the company provides. Once you figure out your day to day expenses (some reasonable play is fine, just don't count on fancy cars and steak diners every night), start to put some away for rainy day funds (balance interest rates with term lengths and flexibility). Once you meet your comfort level there then max out the 401, IRA, HSA, etc contribution. Retirement accounts can grow for you some via interest and market swings, but they grow faster when you contribute to them.
Don't forget to keep adding to your rainy day fund though, that new car may have a higher payment or replacement cost and quickly move a 12 month buffer to a 8 month buffer. However, if you start finding a 16 month buffer then you may have a nice new shinny in the near future and make you happy
Don't waste air fare on just it though. Make it a part of a larger trip. Visit the VLA near there as well. The main and only draw to the site is that it was the first atomic bomb test. After about a hour drive into it you spend about an hour tops looking at a pile of rubble, some left over glass, and some photos. There is a separate tour of the small farm house where it was assembled. It is a great place to go and reflect at, but it really is just a one time trip with a lot of day left to burn.
I'll admit, I have stood in awe while looking at the bomb casings at the Air Force Museum, but I did move on after making the "this here is the end of the world" statement. I've also wanted to get my photo while sitting on it as well. The world is full of horrible people like me.
That doesn't help when the typical work day is 11 hours long (1hr commute + 8 working + 1 lunch + 1hr home). It should really be a holiday since there is voting every year.
The polling locations have to make sense as well. My location is 2 miles from where I live in the opposite direction of my work, and the only way it is accessible is via auto. There is no sidewalks or shoulders to walk on to the place. It is also on a 5 lane state route, with a steep climb so biking it is a problem as well. There isn't even a bike rack to lock up at. I notice this because I'm a bike commuter as well.
In order for it to work for me, I have to be there the moment they open. Last time my wife was able to stay home with the kids and I traded her. She has a new job now that requires her leaving at 5:30. There is no daycare open that early (and mine is on the way to work).

But they don't get mainstream exposure, or on ballots in all states. During the last round of debates, Gary Johnson (L) wasn't invited, and Jill Stine (G) was arrested for showing up. Gary did do a live stream during it. There was a real debate that had these 2 with 3 others put on by another group (and moderated by Larry King) and they invited Obama and Romney but neither accepted.
As for the ballots, I believe that we should have a standardized ballot system in this country that has sections for federal, state, and local runners. In the federal section anybody that filed the form with $department would be listed in it across the country. The states control their portion of it , as well with local. Counting is still done at the local level.
Only if the reflecting angle is exact 0 degrees. Chances are you are going to be moving and bouncing around too. You will end up grilling more birds and grass in your backyard than making them think twice about shooting you.
Many towns don't allow trailers to be parked out on the street. It seems to be able to park on the street it needs to be able to move under its own power. They was probably in violation of town code then. Now if the trailer was parked in the driveway then it would be a HOA issue most likely.

Seriously, it was the best music player I ever used. Sure it had some bloat, but the basic stuff was easy as hell and feature rich.
Notch was married for, but for a year. He got married after Minecraft took off though, or just after he formed the Mojang company.

It is his side job as well though if that helps.
