It is more than that. It is also the dealer has the parts you need, even for older stuff. Deere is well known to stock replacement parts longer than anyone else, and can get replacement parts where others would say not possible. network e

They did. However vinyl was considered better than 8 track. Cassette was a lot more portable than 8 track, and so where portability mattered it won. Elsewhere vinyl was considered better than 8 track and so it won (a few years latter CDs

Deere employee, but speaking for myself, not the company. Farmers buy Deere because they are the most repairable. The dealer is just down the road, and has the parts that you need. The things you cannot do yourself are things that farmers t

True, but at least there are reporters. For national or international news I feel if it matters I will find out. However I'm in the dark about what happens in my state. My city is even worse - and those are places an informed voter can

Books are needed to be good, but just writing a simple letter once in a while when you have time is useful and not that hard.

I haven't seen that movie, but I suspect I know the stereotypes. There are people like that, but the majority are just normal people like anywhere else in the world.

I long ago realized I hate how uncomfortable a watch on my wrist is. For a while I used a pocket watch until pocket sized cell phones became affordable.

It always depends. You get people in Mississippi who don't have electric, pump water by hand and use an outhouse. (They are not Amish or otherwise religiously against technology they just can't afford it) you also find engineers a

This isn't good advice in this case. The company needs assurance you are worth the investment and that means they need to know this will be personally good for you.

I suspect a lot of interviewers think it is a good thing when someone repeats those lines. That is they are not trying to get under the words.

It isn't hard to learn how to read at a basic level.

I wish there was a local news paper around me. There are national news papers with a local edition, but they don't have local reporters digging into local stories and so are not worth reading.

Were they though? Or were they only illiterate because literacy was measured in Latin not their native language? We know that historically that did happen, and it is hard to figure out what was done. Even today, most talking about litera

You are good at reading so it is passive. Someone who doesn't read much is not good at it, and so no reading is passive. Get that person to read some more and eventually they get good and it can become passive, but for most it is not

Malware, accidental deletion, RAID controller issues - all things ZFS with snapshots are immune to. You can decide if the other worry you or not - the risk is not zero, but it may be acceptable. Your backups are all subject to similar iss

It would be a real win if you could get it. However I don't see it happening. AI has been around long enough that if it was we would see it in new features by now.

For most people snapshots are enough backup. It is still useful to have an offsite backup, but realistically fire is rare enough that you can risk it, and that is about the only risk most people have (you can have your NAS in a location li

It is useful for the president to have emergency powers. However he should have been impeached for abusing emergency powers in a non-emergency. Same for his invasion of Iran - Iran has been building long enough that he had plenty of time

That isn't 100% true, maybe 99% though. Anyone paying attention to politics for the last 40 years would have seen that there has always been an undercurrent of people unhappy with imports. This is the most power those people have had,

>What percentage of Americans, especially home-owning Americans, have more wealth in the stock market than in their home? I'd guess about half of those over 50 and under 70. It is all locked in IRA, 401k, and pensions where they can

Very true, but Germany has a much smaller country, both in population and geography. This also has a lot less influence by people from different continents that immigrated not very far back in history.
