In most states, a dealership has to maintain a surety bond in order to get their license. I’ve never seen it be less than $25,000. It’s meant to pay out in the event that they do something that violates state dealer regulations. Assuming they did, perhaps she can find out who held their surety bond (it should be on…

To get an Ohio used car dealer license, you need to have a $25,000 surety bond. Even though the dealer closed, I don’t think the bond would be revoked/given back to the dealer since there was pending litigation. Earleta Homes could have their lawyers claw back the $3k from the bond money (since that’s what it’s for).

As one who likes cruising, these ships are encountering a significant issue: this many people overwhelm wherever they put into port. It’s not that cruise passengers are a bad thing for tourist destinations, it’s that 5000 people at a time being added to a city all at once simply creates a huge mass of people…

Growing up, the church we went to had that symbol. There was a big hall underground that had a kitchen and was used for social events. However, in the case of an attack, this could hold a couple hundred people and had rations and the like stored in a large pantry for them. The doors were thicker and had seals and it…

I get their frustration. I don’t like the idea of it being deorbited in 2030 either, and it does feel wasteful. But here’s the thing: keeping it up is very, very, very expensive, and will become more expensive as time goes on. Parts are failing. It’s leaking more and more (although still at a very managable rate, and…

I’m sure these folks are familiar with the basic math of the fuel requirements. Required orbital velocity actually decreases with altitude. The amount of fuel required to boost into a higher orbit is a small fraction of what it takes to get it there in the first place.

The younger kids were playing close to their real ages so they are a bit older then what they are suppose to be now(Basically 20 years olds playing 16 or 17).  The older teens were in their 20s already so now some of them are pushing 30 and it kinda shows

I think the kids have plenty of time and I hope they take a page from the Harry Potter kids and go at a speed that makes sense for them.

I think it’s too early to tell if the kid actors will become stars or not. The production schedule for Stranger Things the last few years seems crazy - it’s already elongated because of how long the episodes are turning out to be but then it’s also been impacted by a global pandemic and two strikes. I have to imagine…

I think that they try to make Hugh Hammer ambition to be a “spoiler” and “bigger spoiler” team black & green more justifiable. He just didn’t like those royals.

yup - as usual, it’s worth watching

Yeah. Boring actor tracks were a huge bummer for me, because I watched them be entertaining and charming on screen. Plus they were there. They should know better than anyone how something was really done! And instead, a lot of actors aren’t “on” for the commentary and/or completely forget the day they shot a cool…

Yea, but people still try and substantiate the value, I guess a lot like bitcoin.

Milla Jovovich should do a “Drunk With Milla” podcast and invite a co-star to watch one of her movies each week. She and Michelle Rodriguez seemed completely hammered for Resident Evil 1 and it was funny listening to sober Paul W. S. Anderson’s commentary get derailed over and over.

Would be remiss not to mention that the story of the Terror/Erebus expedition was fictionalized (with an added supernatural element) in the novel The Terror, which was also made into an exceptionally good season of television.

Cannibal is supposedly “not bigger” than Vhagar and Vermithor, even if more fearsome and possibly older than even Vhagar. You will see Cannibal though in this season according to the showrunners. I presume during the dragonseed sequences when people unsuccessfully try to tame him. 

I wonder if they will be lapped by the field by the time this thing gets up and running. For example, the superconducting magnet for ITER should produce a magnetic field of 11.8 tesla. However, there’s an MIT spinoff called Commonwealth Fusion which just successfully tested a magnet for their machine, dubbed “SPARC”,…

Heh, size has nothing to do with it.

Here are some of the massive problems with future commercial fusion power that have nothing to do with size:

It’s too bad Leonard Nimoy isn’t around anymore. 

Ulf and Hugh Hammer have both been onscreen so far, along with both Adam and Alyn of Hull.
