ParticipantGiven a good supermarket, you can get better-quality breads, cheeses, and veggies than Slopway uses. I generally skip the meat in my sammiches. Pressed meats are basically mystery-meat.
Nutritionally speaking, one doesn’t really need to eat meat more than 1x every day, if not every other day if protein from other sources is adequate.

ParticipantI had no dealings with no-ip other than as a customer (for legit services running on dynamic IPs). I think it took a week or two, but the domain names started working again eventually. By that time, I had switched to a different dynamic DNS provider.

ParticipantI actually like subway sandwiches, they have a coupon out now where you can get any foot long for $5.
I’d sooner go to a grocery and buy a baguette, some cheese, an onion, and condiments than eat at the shitholes known as Slopway.
It doesn’t help that the damn chain is spreading like Ebola in NYC — never knew there was such a market for shitty “food.”

ParticipantAll subway sales should be taxable because more than 80% of their business comes from products that are designed for immediate consumption.
All Slopway sales should be taxed at 500% because their products are sorry excuses for “food,” and consumption of the same should be massively discouraged.

ParticipantIs it cheating to move to Oregon for 40 days?

ParticipantBuy a welder, some rods and a good (read automatic) helmet. Wear thick leather gloves and a fairly non-flammable jacket (otherwise, you’ll get sunburn from the UV rays from the arc).
Get some uncoated steel of the appropriate thickness and practice, practice, practice. Don’t use any galvanized or cad-plated metal as it will make toxic fumes when welded. And ideally, work outside.
You want a stick welder, not a wire-feed or MIG since you’ll be welding thicker metal. You should be able to grab one off Craigslist cheaply.

ParticipantIf you’re looking for a fun project, you can build your own.

ParticipantProblem is that on a train or bus, you may well be touching the sweat or even spittle of the person who sat in the seat before you 🙁

ParticipantApparently, they’re flying an American Ebola patient to Atlanta for medical treatment. Glad I’m not anywhere near ATL.

ParticipantThe bonds are either being held or guaranteed by US entities, maybe?

ParticipantSeems like a silly reason to sell off the Dow and NASDAQ (-211 and -73 respectively) since Argentina does this every decade or so.
Also, Argentina is damned if it does, and damned if it doesn’t. Apparently, giving Singer’s merry band of hedgies more favorable terms than the other 85% of creditors will entitle the other bondholders that previously accepted a haircut to seek the same terms. Which would likely result in bankruptcy or default within a short time anyway.
I don’t think there are any “good guys” in this insanity.
If I took a loan from a loan-shark out of necessity and he’s now pestering me for repayment, it can be better to say “hell, NO!” and break HIS legs than have my family starve.

ParticipantIsn’t that like having a second mortgage for $15,000 on a $100,000 house at 20% interest, and telling the banksters “go ahead, foreclose, but if you do, I’ll burn down the house … or we can talk about you giving a 10% rate”?

Participantdown to 46 today.

ParticipantI personally don’t think it will last. Peaked at 52 or so after hours, now down back below 50.
