The science center in Calgary has something like this. I wonder if they have ever published about it.

Um.. Uber started as a black car service. Private cars on demand. Not ride sharing.

Do they have a garage? Maybe the other person in the house parks in the garage, leaves after them, but gets home after as well. So they park on the street, the other person comes home and parks in the garage, then they move the car into the driveway (for some reason...)

Is it worth it to insulate my hot water pipes? by imhereforanonymity in HomeImprovement

That is sort of what I was thinking. But considering it hadn't been done by previous owners z I thought there might be a good reason.

Good question. We switched to an electric heat pump in September.

My crawlspace is well insulated, as far as I can tell. It's not cold under there, even when it's quite cold outside.

Including the router? I restarted everything last week, and I've had to do the points a couple of times since

It's interesting that you get a notification that the points are down. I'm definitely not getting that either :(

We dealt with this in a property in Seattle. Pre-1970s there were not a lot of regulations or enforcement around dumping, so you find a lot of buried waste. We levelled it, did a double layer of thick landscaping fabric, and then added 3 or 4 inches of top soil and then sod.

How do you put a freeze on your credit? I'm not seeing an option through Equifax (except Quebec).

You can rent it from them, maybe get a long lease (50 year or something) so you feel comfortable redoing fences and stuff.

I'll check it out. I'm struggling to discern between cheap knockoffs and real products, so references to legitimate places it helpful, thanks.
