Only thing about safe deposit boxes - make sure that things needed in the event of your death, especially your will, are not there. The bank will seal the box as soon as they discover you are dead, and require a court order. Without a will,

We can charge those batteries while we drive, with generators powered by Freedom Fuel.

I’ve been here. I lost my wife to a metastatic tumor. He’s coping with the horror through determination to fight and win, and communicating it. My person had 4 surgeries, countless MRIs, you name it. We had access to the best doctors in the

That’s different. My newish snowblower has to meet California standards to avoid smog in Los Angeles. It’s super sensitive to any gas issues and basically needs a carb cleaning annually. My previous machine ran for about twenty years with n

I can’t wait until some bored rich dude funds a trad-gas influencer campaign. “With universal income, most people simply don’t need surplus IQ. But we waste billions on repair of engines suffering with substandard gas”

You sound like Johnathan Swift satirically suggesting that the Irish sell their children to be eaten by their landlords.

lol. I ran a relationship with a $200M EA. They suck. You need to pay for DSEs to juice stuff or drag in VPs to scream at if you are big enough. The best way to get support from them is to buy it through a third party who can handle escalat

The last time I needed support from Google, I had found a bug in a service. The dude acknowledged it, got a request submitted to fix and provided me a with a coded workaround customized to my scenario.

Most more professional environments use VPN and bastion hosts for this purpose. SSH is a risk because you’re trusting the users and client to not be idiots or get compromised. In general, people tend to do stupid things. If it’s just you an

I think that it is grotesque to take some moral high ground while global companies are exploiting the most desperate workers that they can find. They don’t give a shit about poor people in India, they need people with marginal English langu

You’re thinking about this as a nerd. It’s not a tools problem, it’s a problem of malicious compliance and contempt for the law.

Dig deeper. Orwell was a child of the empire, born in Bengal and served with the Indian Imperial Police in Burma. His service affected him deeply. He wrote of it, and in some ways his writing on those times is better than his fiction.

It’s a risk/reward scenario, and an example of security minded people chasing ghosts. The likelihood of conmen stealing VW Golfs from repair shops is a really low risk/high impact event. So they could demand your passport and piss

You’re talking about 1,000 FBI agents locked in a building. There’s no printer.

How unreasonable that I can’t make my computer pretend to be a fiduciary. Those awful regulations won’t let me say the “computer ate my homework”. Imagine.

Clearly 200 forward P/E and three consecutive quarters of missed earning is a sign of profitability. It's a stock worth $50-60 with generous valuation. The premium is the Elon bullshit and grift. That isn't gonna last forever

That is possible because DOGE and their comrades gutted the SEC and indirectly FINRA like a fish. The government is run by confidence men running crypto scams. That’s how the CFO of OpenAI can essentially say “we need a Federal bailout”, an

It’s a distraction as they suck out as much value from Tesla as possible before the music stops and they go bust. There are a few really big IPOs this year including SpaceX, which will likely trigger significant market volatility.

No. Policy or regulation would have a basis in law. This administration has aptly demonstrated their contempt for the law. Nobody gives a shit about some grunt federal employee getting extra work. This is just a way to compel compliance and

Lol. ServiceNow, Oracle, Workday, etc are not small monthly fees. That's what the market is shitting on. (Oracle is different, given the corruption and OpenAI grift angle.) My buddy works for a company like these. He landed a $5M contr

The problem with Republicans is that the core public platform is pure identity nonsense. The people voting for them are voting for that stuff and usually don’t understand their own interests. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the country

The idea as proposed in various places is a very large multi-ton vehicle. He chose to focus on trivia. Pretty common for Elon fans. Humans are pretty clever at devising ways to kill each other. The Russians put a garbage can of concrete on

The baseband isn’t controlled by you and can wake up without your knowledge. It’s less clear what is the “art of the possible” vs. practical for people who aren’t actively under surveillance.

Pretty easy. The only limits are your imagination and depravity. You launch the rocket, drop an orbital vehicle behind, and land. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. That vehicle could deorbit and drop a tungsten penetrator, smallpox, a nuclear device or

Running a tor node is pretty stupid from a liability perspective, but at least you have more deniability and you are making an informed choice. These residential proxies are pretty much universally shady. I doubt most of the users understan

Great point. I was going to say cost is a really significant factor there, but I was thinking convenience retail where they are marked up. They are only 3x more on Amazon. Now you're guaranteed to damage equipment as the current alkali

Don’t be silly. Why would a reasonable person think “Full Self Driving” meant that a car would fully drive itself?
