For another fun comparative reference, the average size of a typical hard drive is over a three orders of magnitude larger in 2017 compared to 1992.
Wasting 5MB across a shitton of files is noise - would you care about a stray 5MB file? I sure wouldn't.
A great deal if it is probably lost in partially allocated blocks, and thus does not use any additional space over and above what the file already uses.
It's not so much that I favor the current system, my point was that not being home to accept delivery is a very common use case. In those cases, the package can be left in a location specified by the recipient, or left with a neighbor - as the major package handlers do today.
Agreed. My expense in the summer months is more than twice as much in the summer months compared to the rest of the year - the only difference in usage is that the A/C runs (I have gas heat). My point - which I think I made poorly - was that it's total energy usage including the cost of externalizations that matters, not strictly electric consumption. With the cost of electricity being what it is, coupled with the ongoing externalities of burning fossil fuels, gas dryers make less sense here.
Well, duh - of course a gas dryer is going to use a lot less electricity than electric - but around here, electricity costs 8.16 cents per kilowatt hour, and is substantially not produced by burning fossil fuels.
I live across the bridge in Vancouver and work in Portlan. My typical commute is right around an hour - on transit. Driving typically cuts that to 40 minutes. My girlfriend drives to work, her drive time is usually right around 30 minutes.
Generally I see that old emails are kept, until IT complains about being low on disk space or the user gets an angry warning about being out of allocated server space.
I just checked, and the oldest email in my work inbox is almost 17 years old. LOL
See, your mistake is assuming that those things (facial expressions and past actions) matter in a game where the winner is very clearly almost always the person with the best chances at winning based on the cards they hold.
This ignores the fact that a great many no-limit hands do not go to showdown. The worse hand wins frequently.

What value is added to the consumer? One can easily argue that the negative value the consumer receives in the form of higher prices is not adequately offset by the lower added value that the landlord gets. There are, after all, two parties besides the middleman in play here.
Don't be stupid, of course I'm not personally broken up over $5/month. I invite you to go back and re-read my post and perhaps you can find the actual point instead of that idiotic strawman.

...which is also an IT issue.

Oh, wait.

This doesn't solve for the extremely common case where the recipient isn't home to take delivery.

Why would anyone pay $1 or $2 for headphones? I typically rip them off.

Since when is Portland in California?
(Though your point still stands, geothermal in the region isn't as rosy as it's made out to be.)

No.
In no-limit hold'em, you see a maximum of seven cards before showdown, the five board cards, and your two hole cards.

Absolute bullshit.

Why would I waste time driving around attempting to find a place?
You wouldn't, having access to the MLS. Most don't have that opportunity.
Executives lie all the fucking time.
Both are still going to suck.
...or rent at higher prices.

Say, I thought Trump was against illegal immigration - which your co-workers are if they hold H1-B's.
I get 25 down / 36 up. That's fine for browsing AFAIC.
Of course not. The Republican plan makes begging a crime, duh.
