There are absolutely states where if the officer says you are impaired, you are going to jail. Even if you blow 0.00. Will you be convicted? Probably not but you’ll still get to deal with court costs and paying a few grand to a lawyer. Oh a

I’m willing to bet discord.com was purchased from another owner/squatter once their business grew large enough to justify the expense.

There is definitely an increase coming for Porkbun but it is still a tiny amount. I just moved four domains from Namecheap to Porkbun.

In my part of the US, I find the GFS model is most accurate in the summer months and ECMWF does better in the winter. I haven’t really figured out which one works best in the transitional months.

I plan on putting MX Linux on an old Surface Pro tablet, probably in a couple weeks when I have some time. Any gotchas you encountered that I should be aware of?

You're cleaning the filter. That's more than a lot of people do.

Please tell me how you are using crypto on a DAILY basis. I get maybe using it once it a while for specific transactions but I can't imagine a scenario where I could use it every day.

Portland spent well over a billion dollars on the Big Pipe. It helped a lot but there are still sewer overflows a few times a year. Better than after every rain in a city that gets 9 months of rain a year. https://en.wikipedia.or

Everyone focuses on the big bridges, which won’t do well in Portland, but no one thinks about the small bridges across creek crossings in neighborhoods and surface streets. I have to cross 3 creeks before I even get to the highway. I’ll be

Seattle might be fine but Portland doesn’t have any ferries. Washington’s ferry stock is rapidly aging and not being replaced quickly enough.

I agree. My plan is get as far east as I can in the days following the “Big One”There will be bridges out and help will not be coming from the west or north. Likely not the south either. Realistically, I’m already pushing 50, so if the quak

A few self driving cars would beg to differ. Software absolutely can kill in the meatspace world.

It’s one of those rare government offices that pretty much every American adult has to deal with at one time or another. I agree that it really isn’t a big deal. In the past decade, I’ve had to visit the DMV office twice for a combined tota

My mom went through a lot of health problems starting when I was in 7th grade. my dad was working 28 days a month to keep the family afloat and I was the oldest kid so a lot of responsibilities fell to me. Fortunately, my advanced math teac

“Did you live through 2020, 2021, and 2022? It was kind of a mess.” Would be my response. I wouldn’t want to work for someone that asks that kind of question anyway.

The Industrial Engineers have completely redesigned the registration process. Documentation is running about six weeks behind schedule. Good luck.

My son’s university simply opts to have the registration system crash randomly multiple times a minute if necessary until courses are somehow filled. Then you can sign up for text alerts over the coming weeks if an opening becomes available

As one around 50 years old who needed loans to get through school, I graduated with about $20k in loans. My first year was paid for with scholarships and savings from working in high school but the scholarships were mostly one-time deals, s

Does OnStar have that many paying subscribers? I know the cars come with X years of free service but are they really getting that many takers for years X+1 and beyond?

The screen is essentially required by law thanks to backup cameras. I agree that I don't trust any auto manufacturer to make quality software and keep it updated.

by brewdad 3y ago
With backup camera being mandatory, all cars are going to have a screen. If you have to have a screen anyway, might as well load it up with infotainment from strategic partners.

That makes total sense. My house is about 1900 sq ft over two levels. During lockdown, my wife converted our guest bedroom into her office. My HS aged son did online school in his bedroom and I basically had the entire downstairs. Our cats

When I learned to drive, we were taught hands at 10 and 2 on the wheel. Apparently now, my kid was taught 9 and 3 or even 8 and 4 because modern cars with steering wheel airbags are more likely to injure you if your hands are placed the old

AFAIK, Walmart doesn’t commingle inventory though. As long as I make sure the seller is Walmart and not a third party, I can trust their supply chain.

It’s such a ridiculous idea that most people think it can’t possibly be true. Until they find out it is.
