I know that ipV6 is theoretically better for me, but I am not looking forward to the day that instead of 192.168.1.1, I have to type in fd42:caae:ee42:0001:0001 with my phone keyboard. Is there any reason to think I won't need to occas

If you don't want to deal with the haggling then I have found two good options: My bank offers pre negotiated prices on new cars that are decent and well under the sticker price. You can also get the current Consumer Reporte car guide

I didn't document my process very well, but I found encouragement from a website that used the same book as I did for a starting point[1]. I modified the design to make them into small sit-in canoes that you use with a kayak paddle lik

I like to paddle around local lakes and ponds with my wife in our homemade carbon fiber boats. It's amazing how even in the Boston area you can see a lot of wildlife when you get out on the water. Why is it cool? The little 18 pound ca

When I get these calls I always debate trying to get their info so I can report it but it is just sooooo much easier to hang up. For the bank I always hang up and call back. My money is worth the extra step.

I only hiked the JMT which is 220 miles of the pacific crest trail. That was plenty but it was also easier than expected in some ways. There are lots of hills but the footing is easy because they made it accessible to pack animals. I found

References are also very cultural, so you should be careful. Chinese references tend to be of very little value. They are full of useless praise along the lines of "He comes from an excellent family". My wife's current boss (

Freshmen year is very early to be making tough decisions about your career prospects. Ask google if you can defer a year, and give yourself some time to figure out the startup.
