You can get a 3 bedroom townhouse with a garage and a small yard 45 minutes from Vancouver for 900k. Is that really unachievable? Split it with a partner or a friend, rent out the 3rd room for $1k a month, and you need to save 90k for the Downpayment and the mortgage is 5k a month minus the rent, so you need to chip in $2000 a month to the mortgage. Rule of thumb for accommodations to be less than 30% of your income so your income is 6,666/mo or 80000 a year, or $41/hr.

Any tradesperson can make that. People are charging $45/hr to clean air bnbs.

Doesn’t seem so hopeless to me.

How are the federal and provincial governments propping up the real estate market?

US is 14% of global co2 emissions, vehicles are 29% of US emmissions, so US vehicles are 4% of global. I don’t know if I would call 4% a huge percentage but it is certainly significant.

Sandflies bite southern plains rats and pick up the parasite and then bite people thereby infecting them. There are records of the genetic sequence of the Texas strand of the parasite going back 18 years ago so it has been here a while, but it was assumed it was picked up in Mexico.

I wanted to buy a license for the extension pack and they said not to worry unless I was using hundreds of installs.

I couldn’t see if it would work with chromecast audio. I have a few chromecast audios for in-sync music source to old school 70’s receivers and speakers in a couple different rooms, as well as modern iPhone dock / speaker eg in the kitchen that have a line in.

Whatever app I use to play music needs to support chromecast audio.

I think Plex could do it but I haven’t bothered to run my own Plex server for ages.

What alternatives to Spotify for self hosting are there that support chromecast audio, or what alternatives to chromecast audio are there, given they are discontinued

I’ve been wanting to buy a national instruments data aquisition system for years but have been getting by with a PLC. Data sample rate with the plc is about 5hz instead of I think anywhere from 1-50khz with a proper daq.

Thanks! I thought 10MW average off a 16 MW turbine seemed optimistic.

Do you have a source for the average capacity factor for a wind turbine or wind farm being 62.5%?

What if interest rates approach the levels seen in the 80’s?

In forestry road use agreements payments are made based on m^3 of wood hauled in the format of logs

I am quite interested in knowing if it is going to rain or snow, if there might be ice on the road, if my hot tub might freeze if it is not turned on, etc.

Progress!

Where I live we already have property taxes indexed to the value of the property, and a tax on secondary dwellings that are not rented out.

There are houses for $50k in the Canadian prairies on nice big lots. They will need some work, and there probably isn’t much around for jobs and services. The old saying location location location stands

In British Columbia automobile insurance is legally only available from the government ICBC, and ICBC had 800 million in the bank so the government took it and at the same time changed a recently constructed toll bridge to be free, essentially buying the votes of everyone who uses the bridge at the expense of everyone who pays automobile insurance.

Googling MRP it is material requirements planning? Can you give some examples of existing big players and their shortcomings.

I think how hard the trades can be on your body is under appreciated

I have the tp-link Omada APs with controller running in docker on synology nas and am happy with it

If I don’t pay my property taxes the local municipality takes my house too, and they spend money on all kinds of stuff that doesn’t benefit me directly or perhaps at all.

Electric co-ops generally have lower rates and are better managed than larger utilities

Corel shit the bed with WordPerfect 5 or 6. Non stop crashes. All word had to do to kill WordPerfect was not lose your work

I have been a heavy user of KST for interactive and real time plotting but will definitely check this out!

I am a recent star link convert. It might work for you?

Ah, so an employee is still allotted 3 or 4 weeks of vacation time

That’s what he said. You inject a known current and measure the voltage drop across the item you want to measure the resistance of, and then use ohms law

Unlimited paid time off? Why show up at all? This does not exist in the world I live in (utilities)

Getting supplies such as food and shift changeovers?

If a developer of a 300 million dollar project can’t afford $5000 to get in line for $30-$50k study to determine the requirements for a 1-50 million dollar interconnection, odds are that developer’s project is going nowhere with them anyway

Right, so then we are back to that cost being recovered from ratepayers.
