I have a canonical gmail address for what I thought was not such a common name pair. I get so much sensitive stuff. I used to email the sender but I have given up. One of them runs a business and the businesses that interact with his busine

I think OP’s point is that the demand is being met elsewhere. The Premier League has exploded in popularity in the US because of accesible TV. It is easier than ever to watch foreign sports and you do not have to deal with local blackout ga

Saw a tiger mosquito for the first time in Boston last fall. Reported it to the state but it is a losing battle and they are steadily establishing residency. Back again this season so a moderately cold winter still did not kill them off. T

If you believe the rule of law and ~general financial stability of the US will persist just keep on investing regularly and ride it out. Markets have a long history of bouncing back and they will keep doing it until they don’t. When/if

A quick and dirty google shows that global financial institutions wrote down 1-2 trillion in mortgage related securities, a ~6trn drop in the us real estate mkt and another 6trn destroyed in the equities mkt. Not sure I really trust these n

The last Testarossa I saw in the wild was around 2010 parked in Hoxton London. None of the upholstery was holding up and it looked like it might not be driveable. But it got there somehow.

It wasn’t a tablet but there was a TNG episode about a time wasting game that nearly took over the minds of the entire crew.

Granted the park is not the reason a lot of the summer home owners go there but it is an easy thing to point to to underline that the stretches of lake on either side of Michigan City are very beautiful for people who have never been.

Odd that the author does not mention the lake. Hugely important reason why industry located there. It’s also the reason why it is a massive regional vacation destination (right next to the indiana dunes national park) and selling summer hou

It easier for me to watch La Liga in the US than it is for my brother in-law in Spain. Thank goodness we don’t have the reckless anti-piracy actions here but we do have some of the same BS going on because the same is true for him in revers

The interesting thing to me about this map is it allows me to see more easily how much of the Earth is ocean. With the conventional orientation my brain just keys in on the land.

Does anyone actually use generators for primary power rather than backup? Even the really nice Generac propane backups are crazy noisy. I was in a neighborhood on Cape Cod during a power outage and because about 1/3 of the houses had b

Something kind of funny to me about quoting the Fault of Our Stars about love when the original source of that expression is The Sun Also Rises regarding bankruptcy. “How did you go bankrupt? Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.”

Never once used a case in 12+ yrs of iphone ownership and only cracked a screen once. Think there are a lot of people out there like me. Many people are way too anal about an every day utilitarian device.

I am very curious what the end goal of draining hotel pools as a contingency plan is. In the UK system would that water end up treated and recirculated? My maybe incorrect assumption was a good portion of that water is already a sunk cost.
