I got a 7k bonus 20 years ago in the military. I seriously considered investing it in the Vangard total stock market index fund. In '04 it was trading at $54 per share, today $282. Had I invested that $7,000 I would have $365,555 today. Instead I "invested" it at the strip club because I was a young dumb E-3 in Pensacola and New Orleans was only a weekend pass away. Long story short, index funds are the way to go.

That's pretty interesting about the scout cars.Is there any sort of indication thats what they're doing? I will say given Google's track record I wouldn't put it past them to intentionally route traffic near where their paid advertiser's money comes from.

I think the argument boils down to the same one that created both a Senate and House of Representatives, which is does the US have allegiance to it's citizens or it's States.

Hey guys, I'm starting to think these New York mayors might be criminals.

Congratulations, you interrupted my scrolling for .2 milliseconds. I would now like that time back. See you in small claims.

I can see Bezos as RoboCop busting the "evil" union reps.

Cautiously optimistic for this one. Amazon series can be hit or miss, that being said, I really liked the Fallout show.

I haven't driven an Infiniti in about 20 years, but I like the fact they stuck with physical controls. I rented a new Peugeot that was 100% touch screen for everything including changing from park to drive. I almost got in a wreck because I had to reverse out of the way of a distracted driver pulling out of a parking spot and the touch screen wouldn't let me go from drive to reverse, i had to click park first. Anyways, I have a whole laundry list of modern smart features that make me feel like I'm fighting my vehicle instead of driving it. I'm not a fan of lane assist and auto off at traffic lights.

Well how was I supposed to figure out that my docker node running on libreelec won't connect to the swarm because the kernel was compiled with out the The Berkeley Packet Filter protocol.

Damn, I had no idea that Maynard was on the that green jello album. That was also my first CD I ever got. Probably from Sam Goody in the mall to play on my sony discman in like 1993 or something.

Sounds interesting. I know there's technologies like LorA and BLE that create networks on different frequencies other than what standard wifi uses. But they don't really have a lot of bandwidth.

Are you talking about Ham radio
