How are they removing system files when the machine is locked down? If you do not grant them local admin permissions and properly configure windows defender and remoting software that should be your solution. You can make the WiFi connectio

Stall speed for a biplane can be quite low. A AN-2 about 35 knots which means with a stiff headwind you can appear to be flying backwards

Some of it is right on the Red Sea but the "building" is proposed to be 170 km long. One end of the building will be over 100km from the sea, that's quite a distance to pump cold water without it heating up. Also wouldn'

You can do the basic job after 3 days and after a month rush hour won't be a problem either. I've done similar jobs, the skill cap is not that high. My labour won't be fairly compensated which is why i don't do jobs like

You can't just sell land for development. If the land is zoned for argicultural use you can't just build a suburb there. Zoning doesn't end at city limits here. Every square meter of land has allowed uses assigned to it and c

If you've decided that it's ok to kill people for trying to cross the border you can already do that. The US border is not in a jungle. If you seed it with enough landmines almost no one is making it through.

There is a method of sand nourishment that works for much longer time, the sand engine. But you're talking about $10 million for a small one. The first one constructed was 70 million euro. $500k does seem to little to play this game.

E core boost is limited to ~4 ghz on most models. Falling back to a ~2015 mid range CPU when your OS makes a scheduling error feels really bad and it is very noticeable.

This really seems like a post from 15 years ago. In my experience prepaid is almost dead. It's the most expensive way to use a mobile phone and you can get a decent sim only subscription for 5 euro per month.

Maybe your view is a bit coloured by your own experience? In my view riding ponies or horses as a hobby is something that was always financially out of reach for 95% of the population. It's not as normal hobby any more than racing cart

Philips doesn't actually make any of that stuff. All of its consumer facing brands have been spun out or sold off. When you buy Philips headphones you're buying headphones by whatever Chinese company has the license this year.

Audiobooks are just expensive in general. A song of Ice and Fire is $39 in Audible on android (well it's on sale now for $27). Sadly $20-40 is a fairly normal price for a audiobook.
