If every pc comes with a free live in support person then sure. You likely have better hardware than the windows 10 PC and have spent far more time an effort in the last year keeping your PC up to date, where the windows PC had none of that

Debtors only benefit from inflation if their pay actually goes up. If you were making $15/hour 1 year ago and still making $15/hour now, you just get fucked.

There is only the vehicle space. Any sort of electric vehicle space is just a niche hobby space like drag cars or classic cars. we are just seeing the most likely scenario play out, once tesla gets serious competition from big manufacturers

Sure. Just make sure you can pay the tax stamp, the cost of the weapon, have property to put it on that is capable of storing an explosive according to local regulations, and can ship to that property which probably requires more permits.

Mental health is a talking point, but it's a really good one. The U.S. dismantled their mental health systems in the 80s. It was well justified at the time as there were a number of human rights issues around torture and indefinite det

Liability insurance just means rich people have guns. the people who would most benefit from guns for self defense, low income people in high crime areas, would be excluded from gun ownership due to excessive costs. The police also aren

That's a stupid reason to have a loan, unless you really like paying banks more than the government. It's still a loss to you with the tax deduction.

I doubt this would work. Credit reports are for lenders, and credit bureaus side with their true customer.

MI hasn't had any real budget issues for a decade. There was a brief period early in the pandemic when things were looking grim, but the feds flooded sates with money.

The problem is a lack of education more than anything. People simply believe that plastic = bad, despite the fact plastic bags should probably be about the last plastic thing banned. Plastic bags take a miniscule amount of energy to make an

I think there are going to be two periods remembered in 2008-2022. The 2008-2012-15 where interest rates were made low to prevent a depression and it worked. The the 2012-15-2022 period where interest rates were kept abnormally low because

I've heard of something like this being used to buy priority for a dev team to work, but expanding a similar system to scheduling meetings would be interesting. the biggest problem would probably be "meetings" become informal

The results of this have been pretty bad. The chosen members rarely all met, attendance was a huge problem. They delivered the final decision well past their deadline to do so, and the process went over budget. The final map changed the ove

1) More grip options are more accessible, and allow a familiar feel between two different guns. 2) safer than trying to fight with a knife directly. 3) More convenient storage, support for differently sized people to safely use a firearm. 4

Every couple years is probably more accurate. Hardware fails all the time, especially at scale. Hard drives fail all the time, solar equipment isn't magically different. Once a full neighborhood has solar, someone will have a defective

Hybrid makes a lot of sense to me for these reasons. In person can be so much faster and simpler for heavily collaborative tasks. Five people in a conference room for an hour will accomplish more than those same 5 in a zoom call, and it

you spend about 50% of waking hours with co-workers, it doesn't make sense to me that you would want to ignore them. The majority of my friends are former/current co-workers.

There isn't money in narrow spectrum antibiotics, because there isn't need yet. We don't have infinite resources, so putting effort into a looming, but not yet existing crisis can very easily lead to worse outcomes.
