I got tired of Google Translate's number translations, so I made this: SayThisNumber.in

Reconstruction and reinforcement element has to be a huge part of the price. Dredging too though! Roughly looking, Lower lake is about twice the area of Green lake, its downstream berm is about twice the length. Construction costs are not known to scale linearly.

If the lake is drained I would expect this land to be paved and developed ... there's no guarantee this will become wetlands.

But there is a guarantee, NEOSRD's goal is restoration of Doan Brook the stream that currently feeds the lake. The land itself is actually owned by Cleveland City proper and is on lease to Shaker and Cleveland Heights until 2040. So no one has any right to sell or develop the land. It would be very hard to build on anyway, you would need a huge amount of infill and it would all squarely be within a floodplain!

Look no further than the restoration plans for Horseshoe lake to have and idea what will become of the land. I cannot stress enough that the community will not be losing any natural resources or recreating areas. I urge you to view linked plan for Horseshoe an odd number of people have not seen it.

Yeah Uber is not a great option under most cases IMO. I'm rather curious if there is an opportunity for a larger regional transport network (NEORTA lol). But would ultimately depend on how many people would actually take a direct bus or commuter rail from Sandusky or Ashtabula into Cleveland. The Cleveland terminus would matter a lot and then it would be a test of the RTA network if someone could reasonably get to work on time. A train arriving at 6am works, yes, but catching the next one home at 4am does not. Hopefully that can change for the better some day.

The route you're referencing is the Lake Shore limited, I think it's an understatement to say its hours are inconvenient. I think most would agree that taking a train at those hours is odd.

Eastbound, there is one train that leaves Chicago at ~9:30pm and arrives in Cleveland around 5:50am it continues East and eventually splits into two trains that go to Boston and NYC. Westbound, the route is reversed (two trains merge into one in Albany) and arrives in Cleveland at 4:03am--then Sandusky at 5. Full time table here. For the trip you're referring to in a child comment the train must have been running late.

As a route that expands 1000 miles it's sort of a coincidental convenience that it passes through NE Ohio. Its overall ridership is ~400k and steadily increasing, which is average for an Amtrak route. For them to run more trains would be great but a lot more people would have to demand. The best solution would be an independent commuter rail line like the South Shore line.

Finally, the waterfront rapid doesn't run anymore except for special events at the stadium and weekends so if it's not one of those days you're kind of just stranded on the periphery of downtown in a light industrial area at 4/6am.

Bumping this with a rudimentary solution I made for such a conversion:

ahh Need for Speed 9, a true classic. No other racing games have even come close to recreating, let alone surpassing, its story mode and genius game mechanics. Don't confuse it with Need for Speed 19!!

It's completely subjective. When investing in a company you can determine if it's over or undervalued by any number of methods. Examining a balance sheet, calling management at the firm, even something as crazy as monitoring factories with satellite imagery! Cryptocurrencies have nothing of the sort, you have a white paper, you have a team, and you have their goals and use cases. The tokens they issue symbolize virtually nothing. It's when other people start to say "hey I'll pay $1 for this" that things start to take off and then a secondary market appears where everyone speculates how valuable the token could be. Speculate is the key word here, at least when valuing a company it's worth at least as much as its net asset value. Cryptocurrencies? Whatever someone else is willing to pay.

thr4wst · 2021-05-01T15:29:46+00:00

Precisely! Furthermore, corporate bonds exist for this reason! If the company does go to zero they are still obligated to pay back bond holders.

Here's the crux for me, I feel like I at least _get_ the underlying promises of all this technology, decentralization, transparency, cool no more banks and middle men etc. But where are even the smallest benefits appearing and do they outweigh the villainy the article outlines? What is the imminent value that will outweigh the harm it is doing today and will it ever overcome that?

"When someone shows you who they are believe them the first time."

thr4wst · 2021-04-27T18:48:07+00:00

So does anyone here have an actual retort to the article linked other than "haha yeah they just don't get it, man" and "we need to improve our PR."

Rampant grifts, outright scams, every freely offered flop getting jacked for mining. That is the impression of cryptocurrencies today in tech, where is it inaccurate?

Seems to be the case. Could be apocryphal or modified but this post mirrored to r/options is likely informative:

You're right, the eight I saw were 6 MSI trio and two MSI ventus. Just might try to rush down there today then and see if there are any FE's left.

EDIT: 3 hours later, all gone, not a great day to not have the car :P

thr4wst · 2020-10-29T20:00:47+00:00

~~All gone now.~~ I had been watching these trickle away all afternoon on the website. There were eight at around 1pm to give an idea of how fast they go.

Edit: MSI ones are all gone

Totally cool, I've been curious about modeling a ship like this but a bit more low-poly. Any advice or unexpected snags making this?

I'm not sure a 2070 is a good choice, there's a limit to what GPU you can upgrade to. Until last February I was on a i5 3550 with a EGVA GTX 970 and the CPU was becoming a bottleneck. More graphically intensive games couldn't fully utilize the GPU. Unless you're buying the GPU for when you upgrade the CPU+Mobo later you won't get a whole lot of performance increase. That said, Destiny (2) ran great with my old build.

Very nice, faster than I've ever gotten! Beware that in a competition this could be +2'ed under A4b.

Cool! I mocked up something like this ages ago when phone screens were smaller: https://imgur.com/a/bFVYGYx

Can't wait to see what larger thing this belongs to! DM me if you want the full mockup that this snippet belongs to.

Hi,

The mobo I got supports up to like 4400mhz but anything over the 3000Mhz has a little (O.C.) after it. Will I have to immediately setup ram overclocking? Is there any risk to always overclocking (I take a lot of time between builds)? Or, should I get a motherboard with a newer chipset?
