There are 68000+ millionaires in King County, not including real estate. Guess where most of them came from? Microcultists can afford to pay their share.

Agreed. Corn to ethanol makes sense only as whiskey if at all. Anyone with an environmental clue knows that there is very little energy gain. Consider the water squandered on animal agriculture, including the huge fraction on grain production fed to livestock.

The cost of the chassis / drive bay is so often omitted from these discussions, which seem to be dominated by amateurs running a half dozen drives in a desk-side beige box tower. In commercial usage, the cost of a drive bay, including the chassis, power, cooling, and RU is easily more than the disk itself, and getting hands in to swap out failed units costs a couple hundred $. My storage clusters alone have 660+ spinners.

Another key is being 30, ideally 25. I've done phone interviews with them three times. The first two were with the same condescending twat who persistently harangued me about technical questions unrelated to the job. The third was with someone different, who couldn't speak English and was in an echoing room using a speakerphone. Before the third I was sent links to various online texts and videos about Google culture and how to succeed at interviews. The interviewer reacted negatively to me acting in accordance with their own advice. In the end I have to believe that many Google (and Amazon) interviews with Caucasian male citizens are dead before they start, setups so they can say "look we interviewed white male citizens and they were inadequate".

Alex P. Keaton?

Times cheaper? Makes no sense. I think you mean one sixth the cost.

Think about it, why is lithium used for mobile applications now instead of nickel or lead? Weight! Aluminum batteries would be substantially heavier, and take more energy to move around. Hardly a miracle to revolutionize EV's.

I bought one for home based on glowing recommendations from someone at my previous employer. Managing the WAP was a pain, a proprietary app launching a web interface or something, unique to each firmware version. The release firmware seemed to never be updated, there were occasional betas if you knew where to look. My unit became very flaky, I sent it in under warranty and it took several months for them to send a replacement, they claimed they didn't have any stock! The last straw was realizing that the thing didn't even do 5GHz. The recommender was like oh you didn't buy the $300+ Pro model? Yeah no, trucks don't drive up and spill cash at my doorstep. Gave it away and bought an ASUS.

In my experience that's usually futile. There's a good chance the previous owner, if still alive, didn't have service or even know what it is. Having been in a similar position, rural telecommuting, I assert that the guy's both being jerked around with and being a twat. Both cablecos and telcos don't give a shit about sparse customer density areas. Where I lived a few years ago, VZN refused to drop a DSLAMM in the local box. Comcast was a mile away and wouldn't even return calls re extending. What one can do: o Buy another place instead that has demonstrated connectivity available. Trusting the providers or the ludicrous gov site was just plain stupid. o Get ISDN and live with the speed. o XO is hardly the only leased line provider, is Broadwing still around, or Speakeasy? $500/mo would hardly be onerous. Either he could write some of it off, or makes enough $ for that to not be a burden.

Equal treatment is exactly what this suit and others like it did not want. They want preferential treatment for possession of ovaries, which is bullshit.

Agree with much of this. She is already a millionaire and part of the 1% and has trampled countless others to get there. Insisting on even more is only greed.

What if we stopped pretending that suicide isn't a personal choice, and regulated do that people could escape without having to go to extremes?

Right, because we here we don't say "arse".

100dma?

The dreaded Wyse 50. I actually had one catch Fire.
