Is Google standard 50 hours a week?

With the option of using a burner sim, I thought about the fact that at least in the US, most places you would buy a prepaid sim will also have you on video surveillance when you purchase it.

Maybe I've been watching too much TV, but would it be better to pay some random person to go into a store and buy my sim/chromebook/phone in cash and then bring it to me at a location I know does not have video surveillance?

What about when CD first came out?

Players were first made for the home, and while the first CD player for automobiles was introduced in 1984, it was not until mid to late 90s that they became mainstream.

MLM in America target predominantly stay at home moms.

I help direct about $2.4 million each year to various parts of the world. We often receive inquiries about donating to a specific need or geographic location and we tell them no thank you.

If people believe in our mission and leadership, then they give without any qualifications to what it shall be used for. We provide accurate records, and reports of what the money goes to.

You have insurance for major appliances ? Or do you mean a warranty?

Teachers are only paid for the time they work. The summer is not PTO. A teacher might elect to have their salary split into 12 monthly payments, but by no means are they being paid for summer vacation.

Cruise missiles are able to fly in controlled and uncontrolled airspace on Military Training Routes (MTR). There are procedures in place for a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) to be requested and published that alerts other operators of the hazard to flight.

This was the first computer I used. We had one in our 3rd or 4th grade classroom, circa 1978 ish, at Montclair Elementary School in Oakland, California.

I remember learning basic and also playing some type of lunar lander game.

Went from that to an Atari 400, to VIC-20 and then to the C64. Loved every memory from those years.

However 18 year olds are able to sign any legal document, and also join the military.

That would be more to computer simulation before the aircraft ever takes it first flight. Test pilots from the in the 50s and 60s did not have that option.

I would even say that Apple still tries to, and fails miserably, replicate Steve's ability to present to a crowd.

It is not so much as spying for law enforcement, but spying to protect their power. The military industrial complex invented the boogeyman and use their intelligence arm to promote it.

Not one eye witness has been in, under oath, in front of a US Federal Judge and claimed they saw voter fraud. It has all been in hotel conference rooms. When the judge has asked for evidence they essentially get a shrug of the shoulders from Rudy G.

Obama had more drone strikes and killed US citizens without due process.

And then we get Godzilla.

Unfortunately the testing was done on healthy people, not the elderly or those with pre existing conditions.

Royal with cheese.

I just watch the movie Contact this past weekend. Love that telescope and the movie.

Masks will not allow us to get back to normal more quickly. The only thing that will allow that is immunity through vaccinations. Countries other than the US have implemented strict mask & border controls still do not have a handle on the virus.

And the demand for second hand cars will explode, prices will increase and the poor will be most affected.

All MH notes are now digital for the US Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense.

I've had both morphine via IV and fentanyl via a lollipop. Both were in Afghanistan and as far as pain relief goes the morphine was way better for me, because I got a large dose in my bloodstream. I totally understood at that point why people get addicted to that stuff. I did not care about anything at that point. The fentanyl just did not have a strong effect on me.

I bought my C64 and 1541 drive from a Walgreens around 1984, in Piedmont, California.

It might not have been exactly a Walgreens, but it was that type of drug store, with the electronics behind the counter.

Higher cost does not equal higher quality.

Incredible tribute to his Dad. I really appreciate how he gives credit to them as a safety net when he left Harvard.

I guarantee that a chicken from Haiti does not taste better than a chicken from the US.

US has had the federal tax exclusion limit. As long as you are living outside the US for longer than 330 days a year, the first $110k of foreign earned income is tax free.

It's not the water per say. A car, laptop or airplane that is in fresh water will not work without an overhaul.

The salt water produces corrosion that fresh does not. That is why military aircraft operated near the sea get washed so much. Both inside and out, including the engines.

We would come back from overwater flights over the Atlantic and either go through a 'bird bath' which is basically a car wash for aircraft. Or they would drag a fire hose out, hook it up and spray everything down. It was pretty cool to watch the exhaust gas temps when the started dumping fresh water into the engine inlet.

I would not call Wikileaks political.
