Also, as far as I know, nobody, especially Trump has actually done a damn thing! The budget proposal was already sent to Congress and I don’t think the White House can just edit a line and email them a new Excel file.

I think most of these listings are people leasing out a room in order to help cover their own huge rent / mortgage. The kitchen is (barely) adequate for a single person or couple but they don’t want to share fridge and cupboard space with a roommate.

The part that isn’t as clear as it should be is that most of the money Avenatti was allegedly asking for was basically hush money for himself, not his client.

As far as I know, channel 12 and maybe 13 are actually allowable, but at reduced power. The big no-no is channel 14 and it’s hard (expensive) to build a transmitter that doesn’t leak a little bit of noise beyond the edges of the band. So manufacturers also lock out 12 and 13 when they submit for FCC certification.

Ubiquiti also has a good wifi scanning app for Android. It’s especially nice because it’s ad-free. David wrote about it in one of his linked posts after a commenter recommended it: https://lifehacker.com/scan-for-competing-wifi-networks-with-this-free-android-1833078315

a Steam Link box (no longer for sale), a TV or streaming box running Android TV, a Samsung TV that can access the Smart Hub (2016 and newer models) or a Raspberry Pi 3B / 3B+. I’ll bet you could do it on a 3A but they strongly suggest a wired network connection.

For sure, and Trump would be in the mix too, since he’d almost certainly endorse said challenger (or decline to endorse Tillis) even though primarying your own party’s incumbent in a close race is dumb as hell.

Other Republicans in his state also said that they’d back a primary challenge against him next year if he voted for it.

Vetoed bills go back to the originating chamber (the House, in this instance) for “reconsideration”. The rules of the House say that the Speaker shall immediately call for an override vote unless the House votes to postpone it or have it first reconsidered by some committee.

It’s still on the Hellmann’s / Best Foods website.

Are you sure you didn’t just see a Don Lapre infomercial in the ‘90s and then came to remember it as your own idea?

Channels in the 2.4 GHz band are spaced 5 MHz apart, but span 20 MHz of spectrum. So each channel N overlaps to some degree with channels N +- 4.

I think channel 12 and 13 could legally be used at the power level consumer devices broadcast at, but manufacturers disable them in order to simplify FCC approval. If the channels were enabled, the manufacturer would have to be very careful not to emit any noise into the channel 14 part of the band.

We’re at the point where the recommendation should be to abandon 2.4 GHz to whatever extent possible, in my opinion. If you can’t get adequate 5 GHz coverate in some spots, or you’re truly saturating your 5 GHz channel, add another access point. You can also get a tri-band router if the issue is congestion and not…

I did a scan on this article: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/amazon-riled-up-the-left-for-not-paying-federal-taxes-and-its-in-a-position-to-offset-future-profits-too-2019-02-15 and the gist of is that Amazon has accumulated a bunch of operating losses and tax credits between the various federal, state, and foreign…

This relates to a good point I saw raised elsewhere (https://abovethelaw.com/2019/02/extortion-jeff-bezos-crime/). The news is already out: Bezos had an affair with Sanchez and sent her some sexts. Exposing the pictures would just be about causing harm to Bezos.

Yeah except there’s almost certainly someone in upper management who get’s a bonus based on how many The Little Mermaid DVDs and PPVs get bought (technically zero right now, it’s in the Vault™) and will fight to the death to keep those titles out of Disney+.

I don’t believe Disney will ever stream the classic animated films as part of an “all you can eat” service until their copyright expires (fingers crossed). To this day they’re maintaining the “Disney Vault” shtick and withholding titles from the market as if internet piracy doesn’t exist.

You want to stay away from anything that turns bitter, funky or disintegrates after being boiled, like the cabbage family or starchy squashes.
