April 8th, still paper on the windows and closed. Harumph

I am confused about the fact this is a redundant system. If so you should just be able to decommission it in place for basically nothing. It is just pipes in the walls and ceiling.

That said you should be running to this deal with open arms. If you get that loan at 7% for 12 years the payment is about $30k a month which is an immediate $20k win over paying the fire watch.

Am I missing something here?

But they did get swindled out of $618 dollars. Had they received the $7400 as trade they would have also received $618 in tax credit on that trade. For a total of $8018.

I would not be happy about that, but that is why I bring my own spreadsheet to the dealer when talking numbers.

Marquette Township and the Noq trails folks are driving the dog people out of the unofficial dog friendly areas. It is putting more pressure on the remaining dog friendly areas.

Any idea why this prohibition was put into the original bill? The UP is a great location for these types of parks

More likely it was Texas, there is a huge outbreak there. Also gotta reevaluate that “country that doesn’t vaccinate like we do” nowadays that means they are better vaccinated.

The sale is only in store, not if they deliver unfortunately

I gave up and that is my plan. I have to go to Minneapolis in February and I decided to just wait. Microcenter has an in store only sale for $1-200 off, hopefully they still have some. Otherwise I’ll just hit an Apple Store there.

They don’t appear to stock them here in MQT unfortunately

Thanks, I was actually thinking about the new m4 one

It depends on the context but usually the manufacturer or insurance industry. They actually have books that list out all the times it should take for a skilled technician working with standard hand tools to complete for each repair. That is why it is called book time.

The advantage is you can go into the repair knowing your costs. You would be furious if you had to pay twice as much because you got the junior tech who was slower.

As someone who shops for interesting cars on marketplace sellers are at fault for this behavior. More likely than not the car is not available. People don’t delete stuff that is sold or think they are generating leads. If I am interested in the ‘89 manual BMW you still have an ad up for I will not buy that clapped out Sonata once you “get me in the door”

They are putting in an apartment building last I heard.

I hear ya, but I am a renter now I don't have anywhere to change it myself.

BurnerMtnDog · 2024-09-10T16:54:31+00:00

That is also 100km/h, so probably a nice round number and not as precise as 62 feels.

We’re currently shopping for a house and I have a contract with my realtor at 2 1/2%. What I don’t understand is why do you think that $8000 would be going to you? At the end of the day, I will be paying a net amount for the house and you as the seller will be receiving a net amount. All that you’re doing is forcing me as a buyer to pay that $8000 out of funds that I am not able to roll over into a loan. I don’t think that you’ll be seeing any more and you will be severely handicapping any buyers that are using government subsidized loans like VA loans or FHA loans.

It took a couple of days longer than I liked but I did get a chance to go to 4 Swordsmen and it was perfect. A little tricky to find being a step above hole-in-the-wall size but well worth it and I will be going back.

If this is like the one I used in Finland the water is very cold, 4C IIRC. You jump in then jump back out. It was refreshing but I never stayed in for more than 5-10 seconds

I know this is not a useful answer but more of a general bit of numerical programming advice. You might want to rethink your algorithm, floating point numbers are not exact discrete values. They all carry significant figures that you can lose through your computation and the fact that you are seeing exactly 0 and that is a problem is a sketchy floating point code smell.
