My Note 2 is rock-stable like yours. I just checked - 1729 hours and counting since last reboot. Battery easily lasts from 6 AM to midnight (30+% left when it finally hits the charger), with moderate use (30-40 minutes of voice, a few dozen texts, and 70-80 e-mails, with a bit of GPS and web access mixed in). Rock solid device, plenty of battery life - and I love the note-taking ability with the pen!
Got 72 days so far (and counting) of uptime on my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - nice Android experience as well! It's fast, responsive, does everything I need, and hasn't been rebooted in a long time. Is that your definition of slow and unusable and unstable?
Yep! And with it the jobs needed to keep that studio working. Instead of 224 low income residents, we'd probably have a few thousand middle income residents. Damn the free market!
No the big problem with the China push was regulatory. In order to have an electric car, you have to have a way to charge it. Installation of charging stations at the owner's home was required - and that means it's limited to those who own an actual house (not an apartment). So the market instantly shrunk down by orders of magnitude. I know several wealthy people in Shanghai who were interested in the Tesla, but because they lived in penthouse apartments could not get a charging station installed - and thus end up sticking with the latest Mercedes or Porsche.
They all went to China. Beers, sodas, juice drinks - so many use disposable pull tab tops. And they're the original US toolings that were pumping them out in the 70s and 80s. How do I know? Because the top of the can is still embossed with English, just like back in the day. Newer toolings (China sourced) are all in Mandarin, but you still see a lot of those older toolings used to stamp the pull tabs - English embossed and all!
You're assuming you have a roof. Much of SE Asia in particular (and much of the bigger cities in the US and EU) have condos and apartments. There's not a lot of roof space per household there...
My Pebble works throughout my house. It's a 2400 square foot two-story, and when I'm cleaning the car, working on a bike, or gardening - I tend to leave the phone on the fireplace mantle (near the middle of the house). My Pebble maintains connection with it, no problem. When a call comes in, I know if I need to clean up and go call back, or can just ignore it for later.
Got it. So it's only about what's legal, not what's right/recommended, or what she directed that others do. Rules are for the little people, not Hillary, right?
Cool. So we agree she DID do it. You have your proof. Straight from her own mouth.
Oh, and what she did was against State Department regulations. I particularly like the 2011 regulation that Clinton herself signed where employees are warned to "Avoid conducting official Department business from your personal e-mail accounts." I guess HRC didn't send a single e-mail after that date, did she?
She broke regulations, she covered it up, she's destroyed any possible evidence of wrongdoing. If that's the person you want in charge of the Government, well...
I guess PBS got it wrong about HRC using a private e-mail server exclusively. But that would put them at odds with Hillary Clinton herself who admitted she used her personal e-mail server for Government business. But if we can't trust her own word on this matter - how can we trust her as President?
Take a 10 year period - say, 2005 through 2014 - and it did about 9.8%. We're looking at 10-15 year return patterns, since that's the duration of the battery bank. So find a 10-15 year period in which the S&P 500 didn't do 7-8% annually.
Sign me up! My wife and I use VERY little water (no lawn, few flowers, irrigate about 6 minutes total per week; short showers, 2 loads of laundry a week) and we're paying $200 per month. We live in Ventura, CA. So if It's $400 per YEAR for both of us - I'm all for it! Desalinated water is cheaper than what we pay right now - why aren't we moving to it immediately?
That's about an 8% return. It's OK, but not stellar. The S&P 500 does better most years, and it's not that much better than 10 year corporate bonds. And does it include the cost of disposal of those batteries every 7-10 years?
Military options ARE on the table. The President can act unilaterally for up to 60 days without issue. Consider bombing in Libya, Syria, and other places. The reality is there isn't much he can't do...
Interesting... That certainly wasn't the case back in the mid 2000s. At least for the shanty town on the side of the road down to Valparaiso. I loved my time living in Chile (Vina del Mar, Valparaiso, Renaca), and it's easily the best country in South America to live in, but there was certainly a lot of shoddy construction quality...
Other than the issue with the Article referenced (Article 1?), what does revenue and war powers have to do with negotiating treaties with another nation? What will stop the Obama Administration from negotiating a treaty with Iran, given that the President faces zero political repercussions for the future?
Even if Iran does not use weapons directly, they can provide small nuclear devices to terrorist groups.
They can but they won't. Fissile material has an isotopic signature that's as unique as your DNA. Any nuclear weapon detonated by a non-state actor would immediately be traced back to its source by the global community.
Question: how do we know the signature of the Iranian fissile material, since we don't have access to their fissile material in the first place?
So, Iran is going to get from a device the size of semi truck (assuming that they ever do, that is now decades away) to a suitcase bomb in a year
Nah, just build a semi-truck sized weapon, put it into a 40 foot container, stick it on an ocean freighter, and when it arrives in the port of LA/NY/Houston/Seattle, have it detonate. Prior to screening at the port. Yeah, won't maximize the number of people killed, but would pretty much destroy the port, wipe out massive amounts of infrastructure (water and sewage treatment plants tend to be near the coastline) and still kill a sizable number.

Got 1729 (and counting) hours on my Note 2 right now... It just runs and runs and runs... Reboot? What reboot?

1729 hours and counting... So it's been a little over 10 weeks since the last reboot. That's fairly stable, I think...

Zoning density may be an issue here. There may be a mandated minimum lot size to consider.

No, you just need a networked vacuum cleaner and then you can still access the computer remotely on your own personal cloud...
