I think it’s for larger / higher density cities where greenspace is at a premium. Places like New York where many don’t own cars, don’t have yards, etc. I’ve always lived in the suburbs in the south, we have yards.....we drive to parks.....there are plenty of non-cemetery places for me to take my dogs where they can…

I’m not deaf, but they certainly are acting like deaf people do not exist.  It’s pretty ableist.

Sure, if everything is in proportion, paying the higher interest rate is going to pay off the debt faster. However, the minimum payment isn’t always linear —- it’s usually “X% or $Y”. For small enough debts, you hit the $Y which is a larger percentage of the total debt.  A minimum payment on a $3,000 balance is going…

The far right and the far left are both terrible because they can’t see beyond their own hate and centrists like me get hated by both sides because I’m “too liberal” or “too conservative”.

While I understand the premise behind both the snowball and the avalanche, I think a hybrid is still applicable. After you allocate your minimum payments and determine how much money you have to apply to debt, any small debt that can be paid off in just a couple of months should still be tackled in snowball method…

I hate cargo pants/shorts with the slovenly looking pockets. I have a few pair that are borderline tactical pants (though, that’s another stereotype I want avoid), but the pockets don’t bulge out when not in use that I wear. The Prana look nice as shorts, but that pocket (in the one model I found when I did a quick…

The expression in the lead image makes me think he’s trying to sell me a Sham-Wow.

I don’t mind speed control devices (bumps, humps, etc.), but they need to be high-contrast so that people can see them. I know the drivers can slow down, but these are basically black-on-black with some non-obvious arrows on them. If you aren’t familiar with the area, you’re not going to notice them. Even if you’re…

Ke$ha’s podcast was just “meh”. I would expect the same from a Discovery show.

3) Small bath towel

I was expecting to see something about how much longer a bar of soap will last and how much cheaper it is compared to a bottle of body wash.  And probably some sort of Amazon affiliate link to something like this so that those small slivers can be completely used up....  https://smile.amazon.com/Yarlung-Drawstrings-Nat…

Yeah.....I have to imagine that a cruise ship has more activities than I do at my house.  And I didn’t get that bored for the past couple of years of COVID quarantine.

I have a TV w/ Google stuff built in (not just Chromecast, but not whatever the newest name is......).  We have the Apple TV app.

My middle kid didn’t get her license until after she turned 18.  Not because she didn’t have the opportunity.  Both of her sisters got theirs at 16.  She just didn’t care to get it.  And she got rides to wherever she was going (and never once took public transportation other than the school bus).

So far, I think the best(*) use of NFTs to date has been the V-Friends stuff that Gary V is doing. Yes, you own some sort of rights to some dumb JPG......but in reality, it’s the purchase of permanent membership into an exclusive(+) club that you could actually sell as an asset even though there is no tangible “anythin…

Didn’t she go full nude in A Star Is Born? And I think also in something else.....either social media or something on Netflix. This would seem like something that was already public (and pubic) knowledge.....

The good news is that it was premium which has lower sales volume......especially when prices are up.

I have a friend who just recently sold his house (thanks, soaring home values) and bought a large catamaran (40 something feet). He’s not yet retired, but he’s working remote with the occasional trip back home as needed. His is a boat by any definition, but he’s living in it, it stays parked more often than not (in a…

Sid Meir’s Pirates! (with the exclamation point) is in my “all time favorites” list. So much so, that I still own my original EGA 3.5" floppy for the game. The one that you had to boot to and didn’t run under DOS. Pirates! was amazing.  And yes, I kept the manual and map so I could answer the software piracy questions…

All well and good as long as the updates required are minimal (basically set some compile time flags), but once an API you use changes it’s signature — or even worse is deprecated — code changes can become extensive just to be able to support a newer version of the OS.....even if you aren’t changing any of the…
