I recently rented a u-haul that had this and couldn't believe all cars don't do this. It is very useful having the camera and the mirror viewable at the same exact time.

Nope! Which perhaps you could argue makes it not worthwhile if it couldn't help accomplish that. However, some in our household were worried being targeted because of our position or industry. However, the security camera showed it was

We have that as well - but the Ring was by far the cheapest of these and the most seamless to install.

My house was broken into last year. I wish I had Ring then. We never found any leads and police were unable to do anything. Since then I have gotten Ring and definitely feel more secure. We even found footage of a man stealing our mail and

I was simply stating I have trouble with this issue because of the media aspect not the general scientific consensus. The article makes no mention of how local people, businesses, etc. are affected by the temperature change. The intended ar

Does anyone have good information for how rare this actually is? To me - as someone who believes in global warming but believes the media does a disservice exaggerating its effects - this seems like a misleading article. How many times duri

The unemployment rate is the lowest it has been in 50 years. That stat isn't perfect but it is still that the number of people with jobs is about as high as it has ever been.

I agree in large part but I do think it is interesting. Running a campaign reminds me of The Producers - it is just as good to have a failure of a campaign as a winning one.

This only shows why running we now have 20 candidates running for president. They get a huge platform to expand their reach (good for both the issues they care about and their personal brand) with almost no downside (even if not pilfering t

I once booked a hotel on Booking.com on a trip to Japan that was a great price for a king bed and a large room. There was no mention it was a love hotel. While I had no issue with it - my SO felt differently...

Even CEOs who don't start the business and are paid more money that seems necessary are probably worth it. Lloyd Blankfein gets 50M+ at Goldman Sachs but with profits of 10B its hard to argue hiring the best possible CEO won't hel

I don't understand it either. The difficult thing in any transport system like this is clearly the land and land rights. If you can't make that cheaper and easier to manage from a legal perspective than I don't see how a slig

I honestly do not understand this perspective and would like to be enlightened. The only way a young person could be given a house without owing any debt would be if someone else bought it for them or if the government paid workers to build

First, even if you couldn't pay off your mortgage today that doesn't mean you would be in a bad position at all. If you had enough to contribute 50k a year (plus job increases) and had 500k left on a house you would be in great sh

I agree that the article conflates a lot of issues and I can't find a clear explanation on how government debt is calculated. Most of the global debt in the world is from governments and in this case it isnt the worst thing as is usual

I think many think articles like this intentionally make the numbers seem as scary as possible. Negative currency (debt) is a good thing for most people. It is what enables people to buy cars and houses or go to college. Of course, many ind

I watch a lot of documentaries. There is a big shift in behavior from pre-2000 to post-2000. Pre-2000 is pre reality tv and pre technology. Nowadays people approach interviews differently. I'm not saying one is more real than the other

This sounds interesting. Will this make fish much much cheaper? Will it be easier to regulate since it is all data is stored? Are these companies more interested in regulation (since if theyve invested so much they may want longterm product

It all depends on your notion of fair. If one percent of people call up customer service to complain about 50% of their transactions they are clogging up the system. I only call if something is breaking and I've exhausted all troublesh
