ParticipantDon’t pay the frou-frou. Probably cheaper to hire a few strippers of both genders for an open house 🙂

ParticipantWould multipath over-the-air optical signalling be more reliable than a strand of fiber?
SD does get dust, smoke, rain, and fog. Plus you have to keep the things aligned…

ParticipantOf course, and anything disrupting line of sight (birds, dirt on the lenses, fog, smoke, drones) would be fun to deal with.

ParticipantFiber doesn’t run into pesky EM spectrum issues that wireless encounters.

ParticipantSo Google can spy on traffic at the source, not just when using their services. Lol.

ParticipantThe common-core crap assumes that each step would take equal amounts of time. As long as there’s one approach that they’re comfortable doing and that WORKS, who gives a fuck what approach they use?
If I were doing it in my head, I’d probably say that 500 – 475 = 25. 511 – 500 = 11. 11 + 25 = 36. Basically the third method without the silly little 1 added.
Make a 100, then finish up, no need to make 10s.

ParticipantG-d, I hope so, because bubbles pop making for fun opportunities.

ParticipantIf you can buy a home free and clear (either owned a home in SD that you paid off or owned a home somewhere else which you sold and used to pay for a home in SD), San Diego is relatively cheap.
Low food costs (that may change with drought).
Low/nil HVAC costs.

ParticipantIn many places, ownership is a lease regardless of who owns the land. I know that a friend who had an apartment in London had to pay through the nose to renew their “ground lease”, which was separate from owning the apartment.
Even in NYC, most apartments have a 50-60 year “proprietary lease” which generally auto-renews. Except if the building itself is on leased land, then it’s dependent on the land lease.

ParticipantEmigrant Bank is a local bank in NYC. Very legit.

ParticipantThe beautiful thing about having a business credit card and bank account with a very generic name is that you can get “trade” discounts in all sorts of places without really being entitled to them…
“Yes, of course we do plumbing.”

ParticipantIs this a slushbox? If so, let it leak, let it blow up, replace with a real transmission. Problem solved 🙂

ParticipantIf you can power it using nuke, hydro, or renewables (ground transport), then it may not be more efficient, but it will spew less CO2 into the air.
And of course, there’s electrolysis. You can run turbofan engines on hydrogen fuel.
