It might still profitable to rent the house for the busy season and let it sit vacant the other half of the year. A friend who owns three VRBOs in Santa Cruz basically does that. (he's a decent guy but an opportunistic and terrible l

You're right, there are a number of white rhino farms. It's the black rhino that's more farm-resistant. I hadn't realized the distinction, thanks. With enough money, anything can be farmed... But can that supply enoug

Rhinos can't really be farmed. They have awful temperaments and require massive amounts of land. (...another perfect example of people thousands of miles away detached being in an uproar with half assed solutions like "farm rhino

Yeah, now you can take sides between "macahss" and "mac-oh-ess". And, we could use some more window dressing! The Mac's weird window management now feels extremely dated compared to Win10 and KDE/Gnome.

It takes some serious equipment to heat water anywhere near that high. For cinnabar you just need fire. This is not an artificial distinction. If you still don't see it, maybe picture yourself standing near a burning warehouse full o

Except when you heat it. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2755212/ Also, cost must be a factor. Turning materials back into ore is extremely expensive.

Lots of websites have those browser requirements. Many of them aren't written in Rails. Care to explain your "absolutely confirms" logic?

Well, it's all built out and no existing property owner wants to have a 5-story monstrosity go up next door. The city is trying to prioritize condos and ADUs but that's a slow process. It's not an easy problem to solve.

I don't know which one was worse. Does anybody? I do know which one killed more rescuers though, regardless of whose fault it was: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster#Human_impac... vs. Fukushima
