Couldn’t agree more, I do this all of the time for work.

Compressed paper isn’t a good fire starter, it can however be kindling. While this is just off the head and I’m sure I’m missing good examples, it’s better to break this down something like:

And when I land in the UK, China, Singapore, or US and they demand I decrypt the drive? I’d rather not sit in a cell under contempt of court for a password that I don’t have. Just saying I was carrying it for someone probably won’t get me very far.

Objectively, I get it, you’re trying to be an Uber driver equivalent of air-courier. For rapid transit of court documents, data recovery hard drives or other urgent packages, it makes sense.

Get quotes on health care before you opt for treatments and negotiate. http://time.com/money/3938748/7-smart-ways-to-negotiate-your-medical-bills/

Go into your app settings and disable notifications from Audible. Works fine to solve the drop down issue.

I wonder how exactly is this different from just having an Exchange Online (business) account. I’ve had O365 for a long time and have the exact same functionality. https://products.office.com/en-us/exchange/compare-microsoft-exchange-online-plans

I’ll add to the list: camping supplies like stoves (with fuel canister removed) and water filtration/purification systems. I had a rather nasty run in in St. Louis over a water bottle with a built in UV light to purify water, thankfully I was 4 hours early for my flight as they actually took me back to a security room…

We did buy used before my brother could drive. Those type of vans are glorified cargo vans with a side lift, still expensive, but at least not as insane.

Most accessible vehicles have a dropped floor and a raised roof to accommodate the upright position of a wheelchair. The floor pan is usually fully replaced with one that drops much lower and the suspension is usually lifted quite a bit. My brother is in a powered chair but would be around 6'4" so we had to do a lot…

Same. Did not turn out well.

Flatbed towtrucks are way more common now. Removes the need for wheels on the ground. Once hauled to a secure location, they can program a new key based on the VIN from the dealer since they have legal backing for the repo.

Cabins are typically pressurized to 8,000 to 9,000 feet. As someone who lives at 7,000 feet above sea level, I can attest that visitors are wildly more impaired at altitude and that it does seem about twice as potent. It doesn’t change blood alcohol level, but just like altitude itself impairs thinking, heart rate,…

It has those as “skills” that can be enabled. You only get certain streams though, but it does include CNN, BBC, NPR, etc. You put them together as a “Flash Briefing” and she’ll cycle through them. It has several ones you wouldn’t expect ranging from Slate to the Daily Show.

The saving grace of the ecosystem issues is neutral services like If This Then Than IFTTT.com it can receive inputs from Google, Apple or Alexa and send them over to your lights. I have both Google and Alexa controlling my lights in the house and you are correct, it does make you feel like a master of all you survey.

Totally doable using your phone today. Ingredients: combine a smartthings bridge (ranges from $40 on sale to $100 retail), 1 cree connected bulb ($15), Tasker for Android ($5), and a Tasker add-on called Tasker Now ($2-5 can’t recall). Stir gently and follow the wizards. You can now say “Ok Google, turn on lamp.”…

This happened a lot where I grew up as well. That said, this is really an excellent business opportunity. Just create a side business selling blanks for the holidays. Drunken yahoos get to discharge their weapons at the sky and no one gets hurt. Perhaps even special colored flame blanks are doable so it’s more like a…

I made the mistake of buying that exact tool to toss in a random car kit for pliers. An interesting thing happens to them when it gets hot in a trunk during summer, all of the glue that holds on the plastic grips melts off into everything else (and there’s way more of it than you’d expect). It glued the blades shut…

Agreed, but only if you aren’t using pre-check and are only going to terminal A. If you are flying on terminal B or C, the extra walking time vs the tram would likely offset any of the time saved. I made that mistake once and it’s a surprisingly long hike to Southwest on C.

Precheck is really quite good. My typical wait time went from 45 minutes to 2 hours at Denver to 1-10 minutes. Boston dropped from 90 minutes to say 15 minutes. Austin from 30 minutes to 2 minutes. Pretty notable. That said, you might want to get Global Entry instead of Pre-Check. It includes Pre-Check and is only $20…
