You can't really palletize a sofa or bed, you'd need to crate it and then its going to be more expensive. If you are moving $100k+ in equipment or art thats the way to go, for home stuff maybe worth a few k$, just put it on the tr

That hasn't been my experience, for a few interstate moves my stuff is on the same trailer at the delivery as it was when it was loaded, although it seemed to be combined with other peoples stuff and made multiple stops for the longer

Lots of long distance movers work like this, they are just some broker middle-man often based in Florida that just makes the process more complicated and worse.

Not all mass spec use an electron beam (in fact I think most do not), one of the most common for analyzing organic molecules uses electro-spray ionization (ESI) and it is relatively gently but I assume you are generally correct in that they

A smoothie should have all the fiber (unless you use juice), assuming its just blended. Isn't it just basically pre-chewed? Although chewing does do stuff as you have enzymes in your mouth.

Usually yes but one exception is very rugged mountains with steep valleys like the coast range in north Vancouver or big sur. You'll end up trapped.

This is very personal, lots of people go their entire lives without going to those venues and aren't bored. You can ride a dirt/mtb bike in the desert or hike in the mountains, surf in the ocean, etc.

I'm pretty experienced and if you lose track of where you are it can be very difficult to find yourself with a map and compass, often requiring significant moving around. This is particularly true in poor visibility or when everything

I hate all the electronics on ovens/stoves, my brother needed a new one and I found a Canadian company called Unique that makes them without electronics (and some models for propane use off grid).

I had an inexpensive fridge in my apartment break and the cost of having the tech just come out to look at it was around 1/2 of a new unit and then who knows how much the parts and labor would have been to fix it. Sadly, it just went t
