What you are (and this article is) talking about is accuracy, not precision. With that pedantic nit-pick out of the way - I agree with your conclusion.

I had student loans - they were paid off years ago. It’s not a slap in the face to me. Klein is reaching.

No, of course not. Indeed, I think it’s pretty obvious that a lot of products, services, and other things in our society are loved by some and hated by others. So it’s not funny-peculiar, nor is it funny-haha.

Then the title of your post is “Cash-back is the Best Use of digitalsandwich78's Credit Card Points”. And go for it.

Finding hidden transmitters is typically done by direction-finding (active-H antennas so watch your PIN diodes, folks), not field strength measurements. Indeed, that operation is usually referred to as “DFing”. Yes, I’ve done this a lot, mostly EPIRBs and ELTs.

Are there really Dutch-based DigitalOcean droplets? DO is based in SOHO (the one in Manhattan, not the one in London).

When I was laid off a few years ago, I didn’t get severance pay - but I got a large sum (roughly six months of salary) for signing the company’s “exit agreement”, which was basically a non-compete, non-disparagement agreement that lasted a year.

I have family that lives where there is municipal recycling, but it costs more than regular garbage pickup - so nobody recycles anything.

Agreed on all counts. My place has a septic system - and no garbage disposal. We have tnough land that there’s woods in the back, and our compost heap is there. ;)

It’s not just a conservative town - it’s a county seat (of a very conservative county) with a population of only about 35,000. It’s a pretty small and largely insular town. Disclosure: I don’t live there but I live in a neighboring (also very conservative) county, and used to work in West Bend.

If a guy pays $1k for a BJ in a strip club (and I’m sure that’s happened) - how much of that goes to the dancer versus the strip club? Remember, if the dancer wants more than the strip club will offer, she’ll be fired. Why? For being a prostitute - believe me, the champagne room has cameras.

That’s a property tax, not a sales tax. Sales taxes are taxes on sales, but property taxes are taxes on property, and that’s what that is.

They are indeed made in-house.

The last time I was in Hawaii I rented a Nissan with a CVT. I was on The Big Island, much of which is serious mountain driving, and the CVT was terrible.

*shrug* I’m not the OP here, but I drove SAABs for years, starting with an ‘83 900 Turbo. Nowdays, I buy Subarus. No, they aren’t the same thing - after all, Subarus’ window controls are on the doors and the ignition switch is on the instrument panel.

Truckers are underpaid and treated like crap - that’s *why* there is a shortage.

With Subaru it depends on where the dealership is where your car was sold new. Where I live it gets very cold (somewhere near me gets to -30F air temperature almost every winter) so the Subarus sold here all have the cold-weather package - it’s an option, but they all have them. In warmer areas, none have them. You…

If you ever find out, please let us know!

Nope, not so. Of course, you *do* have to pay back your debts, but the rest of what you said isn’t the case. Your score can be great without ever borrowing any money at all; in fact, it’s quite easy. My daughter had very top-of-the line credit when she applied for her very first loan. Yep, her very first one. It’s not…

Sounds good, but doesn’t work in very many places. I’ve tried this several times, and it’s never worked for me. My friend Jenny seems to use this number, though. ;)
