Yes. My mother lives in Montana on an Indian reservation. 60 miles from a population center greater than 50k. She has better broadband options than I do and I live 40 minutes outside of Atlanta and had to file an FCC complaint for ATT to hook up DSL at my home.
...her CLEC/co-op is still in existence because it was too small to be a valuable acquisition during WorldCom's flameout.
Different perspective. It's not legal advice. It's read history advice...when governments change people generally go to prison or worse for things that were legal under the previous government. Since data is mobile and global there is good chance that if a government goes away the data won't.
"Retroactive prosecution" are words that I tell my daughters all the time. Do NOT put your opinions online...period. You have no idea what will be illegal in 30 years and if you were for or against it.
I thought a lot of base chemical production had moved to China and India? Is that not a barrier to entry for the US? We had them post WWII due to wartime production but it has slipped since. Sorry I am very interested but rather uninformed in this area.
Mineral rights leases, I do not believe, are not extended to solar and wind in the USA. In the USA you don't necessarily own the land you are extracting resources from.
Agreed and also Starlink from SpaceX. We moved about 2 hours outside of a major city center in anticipation of smart cars. Mainly for quality of life. Covid and starlink are making that more accessible to others. Solar development too maybe I haven't kept up with it like I should. Real estate is going through a huge shake up right now. Rural land prices are higher than I have seen in my lifetime.
Got a moto g power. Big battery runs 1.5 to 2 days without charger time unless watching more than 2-3 hours of video. Fits my browsing and talking needs. Camera is pretty good to buy I barely use a phone camera.
Pablo and then Ronan for me. Dad (Claar) was the lead wildlife biologist for Salish & Kootenai in the 80s and 90s. Good to see a few of us here. Believe it or not we are in Georgia now and there are Bison ranches down in south Georgia...pretty sizable ranches and they do well here too. Which side Mission or Dixon side?
Privacy also protects you from retroactive persecution when ideas change. Many people grow more wise over the years but engage in foolish activities when young that have limiting effects later in life.
This is how pretty much all of this stuff goes for natural resource extraction in western US. Same thing happens for timber extraction/runoff/roads, etc. out west. If you want to stop it you throw speed bumps in its way and hope that administrations change. It is very likely that under Biden the EPA/Forest Service/BLM/BIA may have different priorities.
Yeah I saw that comment too. We had to search for two weeks to find an affordable non Surface touchscreen because it was my 16 years olds preference for school work.
ASU had a lock step 1yr MS in DIS and then Information Systems for a very reasonable price. Finish in late 90s basically to get in front of quality recruiters. For the opportunity it provided me and other fellow graduates it was an excellent deal. Our counterparts who were doing MS in Accounting were being paid half the money at graduation for a very similar degree.
I wanted to help train and mentor people. Went to work in state government as a developer at 47+. Could not be happier. I feel that the obligation of helping tax payers get their moneys' worth is "old school" internet. Being able to present government information the easiest and cleanest way possible on the net. Started doing web dev back around 96 and felt like the ethos have evolved into something I just couldn't ethically believe in anymore. Found a second life doing what I love in state government...oh and they treat me like a human being. Excellent insurance, more time off than I can use, and people (other developers) who believe in what they are building.
My wife and daughter both had the inner ear piercings have been migraine free. One for a year now and the other for 2 months. We will see how long it lasts. Daughter was a migraine every 1-2 weeks and wife was 2-3 a week.
It's Fahrenheit 451 without actually having to burn the books. Commerce will turn them into toilet paper and soon there are no original works. Just digital content that can be changed to meet the narrative at the moment. Interesting times.
C# 9.0 records with init only setters is a large step to solving this issue. Still has security concerns with injection into serialized objects...it's a difficult problem to solve.
No we don't. Farming gets done in the dark no matter what in the winter. It's a pain to adjust to banking hour, machine shop hours, etc. Just set it and leave it.
This. We live in farm country and bare land loans have gone from 20% down to 25% down in the last couple of years. You receive loans in chunks for building a custom home as the builder completes milestones. There was a "restoration" loan that came with certified builders and a government mandated architect that signed off on payment to the builder as milestones were reached. I am not sure if this type of loan is available any longer. In my opinion it is very difficult to purchase a mini farm (less than 100 acres) and make a go of it in the south. Some of our friends are building "barn" homes. Buy the land cheaply 5-10 acres. Have a metal barn built for less than $60k and then convert the interior to a home. This is very popular currently in Carroll county GA (feeder to Atlanta for jobs).
I had a boss that used to tell me..."in a hundred years who will care?" Do it for you and those you love, not the value they tell you you have, the value you logically know you provide them.
Do not use Slack/Teams as your water cooler. Don't add the clutter...please. Look how popular Yammer isn't. That is water cooler talk for Slack and Teams.
As soon as they have the 4k Relaxation Channel (on youtube) content I am there. One monitor is always dedicated to it and I currently pay Google so that I don't get work inappropriate ads playing. It would save me money.
That seems to be the numbers (0.5%) coming out of S. Korea, which I believe has the best publicly available numbers. See https://corona-live.com so far it seems accurate and the linked supporting articles are from "internet reliable" sources ...not fringe.
