  1. Running our offense through a guy who can't buy a basket tonight is all RT
  2. One of the worst offensive halves I've seen and somehow we are up 16.
  3. Clear the players don't know either. Hard to blame them at this point.
  4. About time, Apple has gotten a pass for far too long.
  5. Just got off a Virgin Cruise... definitely liked their 18+ policy. Less people getting drunk, more people just having a good time. Rooms are nicer and ship spaces have a much better design and feel.
  6. I got Aqua Outdoors loungers and table and have been happy. Cheaper versions of the Ledge Loungers.
  7. Only used on Form 5329 regarding additional tax on any excess contributions. "Additional tax. Enter 6% (0.06) of the smaller of line 24 or the value of your Roth IRAs on December 31, 2023 (including 2023 contributions made in 2024). Include this amount on Schedule 2 (Form 1040), line 8" Basically if your value is lower you may owe less tax on any excess contributions.
  8. Clears a path for AZ to now run an actual Dem candidate without fear of splitting votes
  9. Another reason for ETF growth is because traditional trading firms smell opportunity and would love to be able to short crypto as well as go long. Hard for them to short Spot BTC, much easier to short an ETF.
  10. HP already said buy our printer use our ink or 3rd party - not as good ink (their words, not actuality)... then they released a firmware that prevented the use of third party ink, have to use HP ink. Now they are offering a subscription service after publically stating on a shareholder call - "Subscription service offers a 20% upside per customer to our bottom line. Our goal to to move 100% to printing as a subscription." Guess what a future firmware update is going to do..... (to the printer you already own btw)
  11. About week to two weeks. I'll spray a couple time, every week or so until gone.
  12. Why would they possible post this?? Wait until it "actually" is working. Last time they did this it flunked testing and here we are a year and a half later.
  13. there's a long story on this on, got blocked by a Texas investor who had already been given a 99-lease a month to develop the land from a prior dictator... he died a month later but his son fought to keep it in place...threats, deaths, political sabatage... lots on that story. Needless to say Carnival looks to have potentially dodged a bullet
  14. Gotta have a correction first I think, too many of the traders will want to start cashing some. I expect that sub 50k like others are predicting (before going back up again)
  15. They are high voltage machines. Not a lot of shops capable of handling them yet and certainly DIY is off the table with the potential dangers. ICE car engine off is pretty safe, EV...not as much.
  16. the participating organizations agreed to complete 100% of the usual workload in 80% of the time worked, shortening the workweek to 32 hours -- with no reduction of pay so...guess a bunch of white collar jobs not really needed... Should be good outcome.
  17. At this point I'd take anything to get abbott out. DotARd at least is term limited... abbott can continue his destruction forever here.
  18. Agree, the only thing that I hope they address is there really isn't any reason to "build". After initial building I never built again, just took over an existing structure which I guess makes sense, but I like to "need" to build too. Personal preference at least.
  19. My thought is the middle/median class gets very distorted now because of these two charts below and sure... salaries/income tend to raise over time across the board to keep up with cost of living:
  20. no - one sets a ceiling, one sets a floor
  21. I guess I'm not average and don't have an average health plan, not that your data takes coverage into account anyway.
  22. Damn, sign me up for that rate. Haven't seen that family rate myself for 20 years.
