They introduced the Sacagawea dollar coins a while back with the expectations that people would use them for daily transactions. After an initial brief interest, they quickly fell off. Turns out that people in the US don’t really care to use coins, and used the paper $1 bills at every opportunity.
It’s not entirely true that you can’t identify him from that Facebook account. It’s just really, really hard.
Facebook almost certainly knows who he is. Like specifically, name and all. Their data mining is VERY extensive, and he likely has other accounts.
Anyway, with a lawyer’s help, you can (possibly) get a court order for Facebook to reveal what they have on the guy. They certainly have things like IP addresses and timestamps, but they also probably have name, other associated accounts, viewing history across the web (from those “share with Facebook” icons/links, even if untouched), and hundreds or thousands of additional pages.
Is it worthwhile? Probably not. But it can be done.
Uh oh, it’s caught in a loop.
You are correct about what you’re seeing on Amazon. It’s been described as AliExpress, but with faster shipping. There is a ton of worthless crap on there.
Where you’re going wrong is that it shouldn’t be your baseline for quality. There are plenty of other, more trustworthy sources that are a better option. Some of them are even online sources that will ship directly to your door. Since you mentioned prices in euros, I can’t help you directly. But in the US, Micro Center and Newegg (yes, even knowing about GN) would be viable alternatives. Just be sure to avoid any “marketplace” sellers that might be there.
So a full Stacy’s Mom situation, except it worked out for the protagonist.
In Outlook, they’re keyword-based. Use words like “attached” or “file” and it will automatically prompt you, regardless of the context.
Of course, I’m sure Microsoft is going to cram copilot into it, so that it stops working sometimes
TVs are often designed to impress you when they’re on display at the store, leading to your purchase. It should come as no surprise that this is completely different from your home viewing environment.
Glossy screens, vivid and oversaturated colors, etc are a perfect example of this.
The term “best” is extremely vague. How does one define the “best” anything? There are countless possible options, some of which would absolutely put Taylor as the best. There are also many that wouldn’t, some even putting her near the bottom.
Avatar was, and always has been, a movie about the visuals. It’s total eye-candy, meant to wow audiences. And if that’s how you define the “best” movie, it probably is.
But it’s equally valid to define the best as being a total immersion, or drawing your emotions, or being convincing, or having an expansive story to tell. Especially on that last option, Avatar is pretty bad.
Siskel and Ebert were well-known for their movie reviews. Typically, one hated it and the other loved it, and for different reasons. Their goal was to articulate this well enough that you, as a viewer, could determine if you would like the movie. Your “best” movie is unique to you.
When you open the image, at the top right is a button labeled HD. Tap that and try again.
Apparently it’s been there since the Reddit days, but I didn’t learn of it until later.
I ran my VIN for a Chevy Bolt through the decoder at vpic.nhtsa.dot.gov (and again through the one at driving-tests.org). It has all sorts of details, including manufacturing location, battery size, and that the headlights are LED. But nowhere on the list is the color.
There may be circumstances where the color is part of it, but it’s absolutely not standard. Try it yourself.
If this was the answer for them, they wouldn’t have made this post
Adding to the tracking idea, log it BEFORE you eat it (or buy it, depending). You’ll find that a lot of items aren’t worth it, and you’ll put it back.
How would I do that when they don’t even ask the color?
Not OP, but most of those cars only had 5 digits on the odometer. It says something about how long the manufacturer expected them to last.
It’s important to remember how far we’ve come on longevity. 100k as the expected lifespan wasn’t common until the 90s. My grandmother once told me that 40k meant it was time to start looking for a new car. This probably would’ve been for cars in the 50s.
Obviously you can take any car to any mileage if you’re willing to sink the time and money into it. Many of these cars are prized by enthusiasts, and became project cars. But your standard utility cars of the 70s and 80s were probably not getting to 100k before needing a lot of repairs.
This is (mostly) a myth, and dispelled by (among many others) Progressive and Allstate. How would they even know? Color is not part of your VIN, and is not something they will usually ask.
However, there is one small kernel of truth - sports cars, which genuinely are more expensive to insure, are far more likely to be red. But they would be the same price in blue, silver, or black.
This is part of a series frequently known as “Microsoft interview” questions. The most famous one is, “Why is a manhole cover round?” They are partially meant to gauge your problem-solving abilities, but more importantly see how you react to a question you did not (and could not) prepare for. They’ve since fallen out of fashion, because it was always a terrible way to gauge roles like software developers.
If Wikipedia is to be believed, the Backstreet Girls are a Norwegian rock band formed in 1984. Which means they predate the Backstreet Boys by a long time.
But I have to take Wikipedia at its word, since most sources are in Norwegian.
Fully agreed.
Christmas is a central and recurring theme throughout Die Hard 1. From events happening at a Christmas party, to minimal staffing due to the holidays, to McClane’s presence in the city at all, to “Now I have a machine gun Ho-ho-ho”
I can assure you, with absolute certainty, there will be an election. All of the most brutal dictatorships have elections, usually with the dictator (and his cronies) getting 90+%. They do not have any meaningful opposition on the ballot.
It will happen, but it may not be real. And that’s exactly what we need to watch for, and be outraged over, because it is happening TODAY.
Why would you even do the calculations based on inkjet printers? Even at a simple glance, inkjet is the wrong solution. While they acknowledge at the end that laser would be the way, that was clearly an afterthought and not calculated into anything.
