People wealthy enough to live anywhere they want, often move to London. Or an island off of Miami.

Neither does any sane valuation of the company.

Even if you pay for all the correct networks, pirating is often simply easier.

I live in rural America. The big farmers do not have second jobs. But there are tons of small hobby farms. And there are plenty of farms owned by wealthy people in cities for tax breaks or playgrounds (hunting, 4 wheeling, camping, etc). Production would likely go up if there were a lot fewer farmers.

We pay farmers not to plant fields in the US. Here in the Eastern half, much of this farm land setting idle receives adequate rain and sunshine. Farmers have to mow (brush hog) the fields every year or two to prevent trees and brush from naturally taking over. Economically it makes little sense.

Where this might actually make sense is around waterways to prevent erosion. And farmers have taken down a large percentage of the tree rows between fields that were planted in the dust bowl days in an effort to use every inch of their field.

Although, I am personally in favor of simple regulations instead cash handouts.

I wonder how these rates compare to the US?

What makes it unfair?

Every terminal should be required to run any legitimate card on its own network.

Because Starlink is an ISP and refused to follow the judges order to block x.

5-10% is only realistic in economies playing catch-up. Fully developed economies grow closer to 2%.

This is true across many industries as well. For example, today’s SLR cameras have terrible software that is nearly impossible to change by anyone other than the manufacturer. I feel they should be a sensor and physical buttons with today’s phone hardware for brains. Let the user load custom software to control the hardware if they wish.

We used to have sales tax tokens that were 1/10 of a cent. So essentially another decimal.

HEIC was designed for motion pictures where smoothing at the cost of detail is acceptable. From an image detail standpoint, yes.

As someone living in a red state that, thanks to wild gerrymandering, has a government that actively writes laws against the majorities wishes, I can only dream of having the power of the people to write and vote on laws.

He missed the entire move to mobile. I am still mad MS gave up on Windows phone so easily.

It is by design. If the system is allowed to continue even worse things might happen. Such as data corruption.

Here in rural America, farmers putting signs in their fields stating “stop solar”, and “stop wind energy” are common. What is the source of the propaganda convincing them to do this?

I would love for my state to make all fees and tips included in the price like Europe. The price should be the price. Make asking for a tip illegal. Raise minimum wage for restaurant workers so they do not need the tip. Have a separate price for take away so that eating in includes a bit extra to cover the additional costs.

But alas, I live in a red state so it is never going to happen.

On a related note, many economists argue public free parking should not exist. People should have to pay the real cost of providing it, which includes maintenance, but also the opportunity cost of not using that land for something else. Therefore larger spaces should cost more.

I assumed it would be a small SUV like the Renegade.

The US is a relatively small market.

The takeaway for me is the EPA needs to change how they calculate range.

Also visual narrowing, such as adding trees and light curves. People drive what they feel the road should be and mostly ignore speed limits.

X is also not owned by Americans.

The killer app might be live sports. Did you see the guys setup watching the Masters? Having one of the best seats in the house to your favorite team from the comfort of home would be amazing. But that experience is not available.

Any idea how much ram this requires?

Oshkosh the day before Airventure starts is fun to watch and listen. They paint colored dots on the runway so they can leapfrog other planes on the runway. There are special rules in place instructing pilots to not talk back unless requested to do so or it is really needed. They acknowledge transmission by rocking their wings. I have seen 5 planes touch down on two parallel runways within a few seconds.

Here in KC, Woman Who Code held coding events for school kids. I know one girl that attended them and went on to get a comp sci degree.

I would argue those homes should never have been built.

I believe he nailed it with the live sports argument.if Apple can get that going people will buy it for that alone.

I have personally wanted VR for flight sims. It is jarring to have a screen full of instruments or looking out the window, but difficult to do both without a crazy physical setup that I do not want in my office. VR solves this by simply moving your head, the same as pilots do in real life.
