Traffic flow patterns change a lot, and after the pandemic, they are can vary significantly depending on day of the week and time. If the road is new, engineers have to do their best to estimate future traffic patterns from surrounding roads, which can be off by magnitudes. They usually try to fit the designs around…

This is how speed limits are designed, not how the are always set. Roads are designed, traffic and speed are two factors that are considered in the design process. There are a lot of other factors at play as well. Local, County, and State regulations/codes play a factor as well. This is why speeds change when roads…

I hate the advice to only pay for a car in cash. Getting a loan with no early payoff fees is a great option if you have the cash to pay it down quicker or off from the start. Its even better if you can get a low interest loan or additional incentives on the purchase price too.

I completely agree with not taking it to HR. Take it to someone else, preferably outside of your department and see if they agree that you are being treated differently. A lot of companies assign people mentors outside of their department as they can provide a different perspective. If that person were to say “yeah,…

I completley agree with you. I’ve had 4 beagles over the years being either our family dog with my parents or on our own. They can be fantastic dogs, great with kids, and just a pleasure to have. They do have strong personalities, my parents last one only liked women and wanted to be a guard dog, our last beagle was…

I see the confusion. yes, i rejected their initial offer. They then came back with a better one. 

Factoring in benefits should be set as a minimum when you start the salary negotiation. I just recently received an offer and a counter offer from a competitor to my current company. I am not itching to leave where I am but the new position will shrink my commute from 1 hour to 10 min. When salary came up, I gave them…

To the point of using bleach to disinfect water, regular Clorox, not the splashless or scented kinds, can be used for disinfecting. Do not use the other kinds as they can harm you. Plain bleach is just a weaker solution of what is used around the world to disinfect water anyway, sodium hypochlorite. If the bottle says…

I bought a shwinn from target to get back into bike riding the summer before the pandemic.  Broke the crank arm after my 8th ride and has had nothing but problems sense. i knew it wasnt built to last many years but 8 rides, maybe a total of 12 hours on it, is not long enough. 

I haven’t had any issues with importing photos and video, but to be honest, i have only used it on Windows a few time to pull stuff off my iPhone for work.  I mainly use it on my Mac and haven’t had any issues there either.  The free trial is worth it to see if it fits your needs.  It is great being able to select…

one way to replace iTunes but still be able to back-up to windows is using iMazing.  It works on mac as well but allows more control of your iDevices than itunes and can wifi backup

yeah it is fustrating, i think iMazing does a whole device count, storage pulls from your messages and photos, and photos is photos only. but he backup management of iMazing was the reason i downloaded it and i use it now to replace itunes.

I suggest using iMazing for backing up Apple devices. It gives you more flexibility and allows you to search backups and might allow you to pull data from it.  It’s worth a shot and so far has been worth the money for us.  

That’s either a gigantic pepperoni pizza, or just a typo but a lot of stoners are going to be intrigued with that one.

Yeah something is off, there can be some difference in what you see and what the dealer sees but not more than 100 points. You may have to go through equifax or experian to get the whole report. Could be an issue with an old account or if you were looking to get financed at multiple dealers and they all did a hard…

I mean I wouldn’t consider a $500 laptop dope by most standards. In that range they are usable but don’t do anything above average. I have been looking at laptops for two family members in the $500-$700 range and they are more standard laptops that shouldn’t crap out in a year or two.

The trick to eating at your wedding is to get your pictures done before the ceremony. Then thank people for coming during the happy hour and when you sit down for dinner, you can actually eat the food. At my wedding, both my wife and I were in agreement that if we were spending so much on food, we were going to enjoy…

My high school (outside of Philly) offered an accounting course as an elective that a lot of people took. It went through the basics of accounting but also included personal finance topics as well. Budgeting, personal banking, and taxes were all covered. It was light, as far as I can remember, on credit cards and I…

Since this is an Italian American recipe, add as much garlic as you like. I tend to keep it at about one head of garlic for the amount of tomatoes in the sauce in his recipe. The difference between Italians in Italy vs. America is that the Americans leave a lot of the garlic in their food through the whole process. In…

I was one of those babies, but I was diagnosed with Colic. 9 months of no sleep for my parents. Appearently the only thing that go me to sleep was a ride in the car or a wind-up bouncing swing that you had to wind every 15 mintues.
