Costs $2 to sign up to that site. At first I balked but then I realized somebody would probably enter every single person’s name and address in the country if they didn’t have some kind of cost associated with it. Still stinks to pay someon

It costs $500/yr to run an LLC Your advice to register an LLC is very good. I’ll add: 1) Costs are very state specific. And if you register in the state you live in you can act as your own registered agent and eliminate a lot of th

So basically, Google seems to have managed to take a feature in its own Calendar App, and the default behaviour of meetings on Google and dressed it up like stalking. A window on your friend’s house can be used to peek in to see if they’r

For what it’s worth, I switched to ddg a couple years ago and haven’t found the same thing. If I ever search on ddg and don’t get what I want I just append !g to the search and it sends me to google anyway.

Starcraft is an incredibly complex game. Even basic strategies will win if they’re done faster. APM (actions per minute) is a very significant factor into who is winning. Apparently they limited their AI player to 264 APM but that’s sti

Most of your clothes sit idle 90% of the time. I have a cup full of pennies in my closet that sit idle all the time too and I don't care... cause they're pennies. Similarly, the average car cost over $35,000 in 2018. That'

If you don't need to drive why would you buy a driverless car? I don’t anticipate many people will ever buy a driverless car. The whole concept of buying a car is kind of ridiculous. You pay for it then you continue paying for regis

Did a lot of research on my last purchase and it came down to a Thinkpad T480s or Thinkpad Carbon X1 and I ended up going with the Carbon because it's so much lighter and thinner while still having an i7, 16 GB of RAM and SSD. And I bo

Is there any downside to periodically taking strong antifungals? I type on computers for a living but I think in general everything in your body is in balance. For example, if you remove bacteria via an antibiotic you can get a fungal in

Just IMO, programming is addictively fun and can be shallow. I can get that. In 1985 when I was programming my own BBS from scratch I would skip going out with friends to work on it. All that time spent on a computer as a child provided
