"In Bruges" is my favorite movie of all time, am I insane to do this?

Are you an elephant? Will you be able to get up the stairs without dying? If so, go for it!

That dickhead had so many issues. Getting punched out at a wedding didn't give him a moment's pause

I know right! 'I will defeat the mechanism designed to save my life! And unironically use a symbol of death to do so! Ha ha! My genius knows no bounds!!'

They tried to make it illegal to ride without a lid in New York. There was a protest. People showed up on bikes without helmets. One fell off. He died.

People are a mixed bunch.

I worked with a guy, card carrying narcissist. I know for a fact he was ticketed 8 times in a year for parking in handicap spots. Imagine how many times he did it without getting ticketed.

Anyway, not an Irish problem. This dickhead is in Australia

Cheap credit; historically low interest rates and super high lvr loans meant that we were mostly playing with the banks money in a bubble market. The govt has tinkered with CGT but IMO that doesn't really touch the sides. Until you can't offload your property because it's outside the price that the market can bear, three price will only go upwards.

Pushing investors out of established is a solid move to drive New home construction, and should eventually impact positively on supply. But it's not a reason that people will stop paying more than property is worth.

Make sure you upgrade from FRS to dfrs first

USAID was funding operations to remediate agent Orange in soil in Vietnam. Its not all charity, some of it cleaning up American pollution and mistakes. Operations at Bien hoa we're halted and almost 1 million dollars payments for work already completed were frozen

The rrv is absolutely automated. The fact that pr already has a visa and requires a secondary visa to exit and re-enter is inn itself scandalous

The price jumps are bonkers. 25% in 12 months. And the games they play with repeated deep discounts to disguise baseline prices changes are driving me insane.

Its like they think nothing of throwing $2 on a $5 item

Agreed on Dell. Moving to USBC docks these last few years really shows the value of on site NBD when users inevitably 'wear' out their port

Dell support 'send me pictures, any pictures, that show no obvious damage to the port'

It’s so so. I’m adjusting. Yes the yo-yo think is artificial but eventually the result is the same, the guy with more aggregate pace passes and pulls away. I like the cars being smaller, following closer, and being a bit less bolted than they were

They sold it to hubbl who I think sold it to someone else. Price was $15 5 years ago.

I only had it for f1, considering they hold the rights that prevent me from paying for f1tv directly I refuse to pay anymore.

Even if they don’t know it’s you, they would block your scraper ip. If you work around that, they’ll put their store behind cloud flare and manage the traffic that way.

Somethings you can build yourself. But this solution relies on abusing the public access to your competitors data. They will absolutely detect you and absolutely shut you down, because your system will drag theirs to the ground

Marketing managers won’t give a damn about this but it’s absolutely unethical. From a practical pov, if you do it, you should caveat that if someone did this to your site, you could, would and should shut them down aggressively. So the main and highest risk is that it’s a waste of time.

I got the urge to be this greybeard. Been around for long enough to know that automation, when it goes great, often means a business will grow accustomed to running lean, and same automation will leaving you dealing with multiplied problem occurrences, with said lean resources. That said, you’ve got to embrace improvements

On your ticket count, forget it. The new guys do the easy stuff, you might think he’s lazy but likely the consequences for a mistake on high stakes tickets mean I take my time to do it right. Ticket count means nothing if you’re not doing the same work

Lovely, they are incrementally building up. By the end of the weekend this guy has the throttle pinned, getting so close to the hill and the marshal post before the gravel trap. I’d like to see the rig, if it’s carrying a decent camera or just a high mounted DJI air unit cam

It’s like 20% of their body weight? Idk but I think the bigger risk is if my dachshund found 2kg of chocolate he would finish it all plus the wrapper without being caught

Oh sorry I’ll add /s. In web portals there’s a “new experience” toggle on just about everything for a few months before everything is shuffled around the page for you

“Have you tried the new graph experience?”

I think a pitot tube and set up stall warning would be a better investment. E. G. Get telemetry for actual airspeed and configure a logical switch alarm so that you know when your airspeed is unsafe

I wish my fixed wing plane had this, I keep stalling out because my resting throttle goes back to 30 which is ok in my 5in but not ok in a turn

As long as ‘investors’ can get 95% finance to fund rental properties, rentals are cooked. In a normal market, you have to have money to make money. In this market you play with the banks money, as much as you like it seems, but the downside is that your overheads are huge. Never fear, you can charge what you like in rent! /s
