the only value in 3d movies is that in some of them it's the only way to get a digital copy on itunes or vudu

when the millenials start to have kids instead of partying all the time and the kids go to school and they realize their precious snowflake is going to school with kids who bring in guns and curse and are dummer than farm animals and are bussed in from the bad city neighborhoods because of diversity or because the projects are two blocks away then,

the millenials will forget all this walkability and carbon footprint nonsense and move out to places with good schools where precious snowflake who reads 2-3 grades above the average kid in the USA won't be in the same class as the dumb shits who barely know the alphabet in first grade. in the 80's when the baby boomers got tired of their camaros it was called White Flight and the cities with all their rentals became ghost towns. Today it's going to be the same except for more ethnicities doing it

give it another 5-10 years and it will happen. the chicks will wake one day and hear their biological clock ticking louder than ever and dump all the man kids who do nothing but party

how do you get Cambridge, the mission district and Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn in the same list?

i know people there and drive there once a month or so. it sucks. the schools suck. parts are close to the subway but large parts are a 30 minute walk. the stores within walking distance suck as well. unless you speak russian or chinese you won't fit in.

with amazon prime it's cheaper to live in a car dependent area, drive to work, buy from amazon and drive grocery shopping once a week

And most of the areas listed in the article are too expensive for mere mortals

And the way to buy a home is to ask how are the schools? Good school districts will keep value long after walk ability and other fads wear out. Problem with cities is too much rentals. Too easy for people to flee once their lifestyle changes

last i read on their website you have to pay something like $600 for an annual service for your tesla to have it checked out to keep your warranty

this is just recurring revenue for musk for years to come

google, apple, MS and others do the same

take a bunch of people fresh out of college
wow them with awesome bennies like food, beds in the office, free bus service, etc
give them 6 months to figure out the benefits are there to keep you in the office and working almost 24x7 and so you can sleep on the bus instead of driving home tired so you can work longer

why would i want to connect my tablet to my TV via HDMI so it's a PITA to use it while watching TV? if anything, i like airplay to my apple tv from my ipads to stream cartoons from the Nickelodeon app

if i'm going to stream to my TV i'll just buy a better apple TV or roku because ARM processors with hardware h.265 are probably on the horizon as well

WTF do you expect google to do? even on google fiber netflix tops out at 10mbps

you can splooge your shorts watching your speedtests all day long, but in reality it won't be that much faster since all the services you access won't be buying enough bandwidth on their end for you to take advantage of it

i have 2 LTE phones and Team Stream takes forever to update even though i can do a 20mbps speed test at the time. welcome to the internet

no, some states the utilities don't want to spend the money to buy the electricity from people and it's too much buying solar with a huge battery to store the electricity for later use.

and for reference, here in NYC the only solar panels i see are on some businesses like whole foods who can afford to spend the cash for the wiring to send excess electricity back to the utility. and as a residential customer the last thing i want to do is pay for the wiring for a few people to make money on their homes

because every time i took my kids to the doctor they take the temperature and blood pressure right there and the doctor needs to do a physical exam to verify the symptoms are bacterial or viral

all the brilliant military analysts on CNN were predicting 30% casualties based on thinking that the US was going to fly in and fight it out
instead special ops sent in a few choppers to blow up the early warning radars and that opened up a huge hole and it was over within the first hour of the air war

same with the ground war. same analysts were predicting 20% casualties on the ground and we sent an armored corps on a huge enveloping maneuver against an unprotected flank just begging to be attacked. meanwhile the air war destroyed enough combat power in the trenches that we were able to breach them with almost no deaths

i was 18 when the ground war started in the first iraq war
during the build up it was reported that the french were able to detect the F117 on their radar. most likely the iraqi's as well

so the USA destroyed the big fixed radar sites in the first minutes of the war and that allowed F117 to roam at will since the other radars had less range
war isn't about numbers and stats. its about smart people using capabilities to outsmart the other guy

we didn't have cruise missiles in vietnam. and not sure about AWACS either.
these days we have more people "managing" the battle than the war fighters because historically most battles have been won or lost before the fighting began

google it

F117 was detectable on radar since at least 1990

how long are fighters replaced? every 20-30 years?

dog fighting isn't that big anymore. US has AWACS now to direct our fighters and attack from behind or some other optimum angle. no one sends fighters against each other for a dogfight anymore.

even the F117 could be detected in the gulf war, which is why it flew as part of huge mission packages with jamming aircraft and wild weasels
