A bit of calculation would show that a lot of people have no chance of building "great passive income" in 10 years. They simply do not have enough income to save that much. "I started with $200" tells us nothing useful.

I don't believe in that 20% being a problem. I mean you can take a bus / taxi / train / buddy to get you to the next town if you need to be there. If you need to transport stuff, then you might need a car, but it'

I'd like a planck with smaller keys / tighter key spacing (85% to 90% of standard) and two keys in place of one big space bar. Maybe splittable at the center, still with possibility to stick the halves together for transport. Als

I have one. It's too heavy and bulky for a mouse, and too flat & unergonomic for a keyboard. There are lots of pinky keys I find very difficult or impossible to reach when the hand is resting in the natural position on the device

IMO trying to attack dissemination of CP is like trying to intercept bullets midair (perhaps even harder). There are countless ways to smuggle porn, just as there are countless ways to smuggle drugs. Drugs are harder, and yet they still c

Hmm, I don't think I have experience with such hail. In my experience, the bigger they are and the harder they hit, the more vertical their trajectory. But my area isn't particularly prone to hailstorms.

I've also seen a lot of bad construction that catches on wind like a sail. It doesn't have to be built this way, however. A canopy that protects from hail coming from above can still have lots and lots of holes that lets wind go
