With Airplay? I do not think I have ever been prompted to. The TV is a Roku so technically I am signed in there and I have an AppleID but the iPad is my wife’s and the Roku account isn’t the same email as either of those accounts.

I’m pleasantly surprised by Apple Airplay. I can cast anything from my iPhone or iPad to my TV, they just need to be on the same WiFi. The original Chromecast was really good at just letting you cast anything to a TV.

I think there is conflating that inflation can only be new money printing. The value of monero compared to a basket of goods from June to July changed by 12%. You can buy 12% fewer things today than in June. That is the same way the USD inf

When I could take the bus it cost me around 50 cents a trip. This was 5 years ago. And was in a mid sized City in the Midwest. Took twice as long as driving but I did not need to pay for parking or drive in the snow when I took the bus.

Can you explain how a bus, which takes up only the space that 2-3 vehicles can add the equivalent of 10-15? Even triple the space usage, is leas than what you claim to observe. What is your methodology for determining this?
