Actually, most were built during WW I and WW II and the Korean War to create worker housing for the shipyards and Boeing aircraft line workers.

At least in Seattle.

They get really pissy when you mess with their GPU backdoors

You fail to understand all the subcontracting and connected firms. Probably 10 percent of the jobs were MSFT created. Many of our dot coms and current tech firms are from MSFT people.

The only neighborhoods that didn't change were the rich ones like Queen Anne, Wallingford, Montlake, and so on.

That's what MSFT did.

(caveat - I bought my first house with $ from trading MSFT stock on announced information, where I got my first down payment - and have worked for them)

Nope. Many studies have disproven this. Sprawl is less efficient. People who live in dense cities consume much less than sprawl SFH suburbs - frequently 1/10th as much. We drive less (many of us use walking, bikes, or transit, or drive short distances) and use less energy.

Face it, we're better than you.

And we're not subsidizing suburbs either. Those days are over.

Spreading out won't help - it just increases traffic congestion. I'm specifically referring to the adjacent neighborhoods like Wallingford, Montlake, Capitol Hill, Queen Anne.

All the arterials everywhere.

The entire city population - and regional population - is going to double. Pretending it won't is part of the problem, and pushing growth out is part of what led to the current problem.

I was in the meetings where we decided to upzone SLU to 8 stories. Maybe you missed them.

I really think you don't get that our population will DOUBLE by 2025.

Not 2040.

But 2025.

Time to rezone all arterial blocks to 6-8 stories and stop "preserving" overpriced Single Family Housing that drives all but the Upper Middle Class out of Seattle.

(caveat - I own my house)

That's beside the point.

Pats cheated.

Seahawks get the win.

No, I ask because I was one of the first beta testers of GPS units, and when I would go into mountains and park all day to go skiing they would freeze and take 2-3 days to reboot. When I was in the CAF Army we had similar problems operating in the Rockies and in Northern BC and the Yukon - a lot of stuff doesn't work well when it gets wicked cold. Like -20 C or below. At -40 C (also -40 F) a lot of stuff just stops working.

Seriously, the worst part is that it's doesn't achieve it's stated objectives.

Intel gathered in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan and some other rogue states like Bahrain, yields actionable intel.

Intel gathered in the US has somewhere around 99 percent false leads that hide the 1 percent we would have found if we only used the above intel instead, and then used specific warrant leads.

That to me is the take home from this Illegal and Unconstitutional NSA data collection program.

Now give us back our SuperBowl trophy, Pats, and it will end peacefully.

In a lot of the US and Canada we have these things called winters, and batteries and other components don't work so well when it's way below 0 C.

Just wondering, since I've been waiting for this model to finally come out, now that I've switched to 100 percent green power and bought four solar panels through Seattle City Light.

Be great to know if it can cope with the winters in the Rocky Mountains of Montana, Idaho, BC, and Alberta.

Barsoom always needs more egg hatcheries. And air generation stations along the canals.

Exactly.

The ruling is based on a false premise.

I know what they look like, I've coded GIS software for cell providers, I even know what most of the hidden ones look like, and how the log files work (since I used them), but most people think it's a magic device powered by fairy dust that doesn't track them until they "turn it on" (it's actually on unless you specifically power it off).
