The law is 100ft per the attorney in the video. 93 yards is 279ft.

I've owned a number of Apple laptops through the years. The Macbook Air I bought in early 2020 (still the Intel chip) was by far the worse Apple laptop I've ever owned, and that includes the touchbar Macbook Pro. It was also the first Apple laptop I got rid of. Surprisingly, Apple gave me close to $300 when I traded it in on the latest Macbook Pro.

The turbo charged 4 has as much horsepower as the 5.4L V8 in my F150. It moves the Bronco just fine.

I'm OT poor, but my 2 door Bronco Badlands with a manual is fun to drive, though still waiting for the reservoirs on the shocks to fall off.
But this is the OT, you need a Super Bronco with a 7.3L V8.

This is the thread where all the people that are productive in WFH don't realize that many people are NOT productive and you simply can't only hire productive WFH people at a large company like Dell.
Dell supported WFH well before Covid. To implement this policy now after many years of hiring remote workers is just idiotic. If I was still at Dell, I would be flipping a coin to either continue working and keep a paycheck coming in while looking for a new job, or just give my two weeks and enjoy some time off while looking for a new job.
re: The City of Pittsburgh is trying "The Purge" out in real life daily from 3 a.m. to 7 a.m.

Did a week long training in Pittsburgh back some time around 2007 or so. One day after the class finished, I drove into Pittsburgh to find some food. Not one single business was open downtown. A culinary school was letting out and all the students were catching the bus and leaving. Finally found a pub near the baseball stadium. Next day, two guys from Pittsburgh were shocked I went into Pittsburgh after dark.
He took the foul ball to the hand in top of the 3rd after throwing out a runner. Hit the GS in bot of 3rd. Milazzo came in to catch in top of the 4th.

Compared to other services with ads, I find Hulu to just be a pain in the arse with how they serve ads.
For example, Peacock will either show ads before the show, then at an interval, or they will show a few minutes of ads, then rest of show is ad free.
I recently tried watching the latest Justified on Hulu. First two episodes were ok with how they chose to run ads, but when I started the third episode, they literally ran an add before the show started, ran previews for the previous week, then ran another ad longer than the first. I didn't even bother to watch the episode or the rest of the season.

CU got a turnover on the first possession but TCU went through them easily. Same on the next possession. That may not bode well for them as this goes on.
That was the second possession. First possession, TCU went 3 and out.
TCU's defense on the other hand isn't exactly stopping Colorado's offense.

Anyone think there will be a reverse trend at some point? A push to start going back in to work?
I've WFH for the last 13 years, for some quite large tech companies during that time. It's nothing new, just new for some companies recently.
I've also been laid off for not wanting to relocate to an office location to appease a VP that wanted all team members together in one location...not just the WFH people, but also employees working at another company site. That company has since reversed that position when they were having issues hiring new employees.

Gas, brake, and clutch in same orientation. Having to clutch with right foot and gas with left would have been much more difficult.
Not long. I've driven manuals in Ireland and England. First is all the way to the left.
What's really annoying is some cars have the turn signal stalk on the left side of the steering wheel instead of the right.

re: Amazon movies and TVs are not playing, but the audio works. WTF
Posted by root on 11/13/22 at 11:23 am to Arthur Bach
Same here with Amazon Prime Video on Apple TV. Started on Friday. Thought at first it was the movie rental, but even Prime movies/shows are giving the same "Something went wrong error." If the video does start playing, the quality will eventually degrade to 480p over 5 minutes then just stop with the above error.
Update: I chatted with support, and they confirmed there is an issue with Amazon Prime Video and Apple TVs (and I'm sure other devices). They even refunded the movie rental I made Friday night due to the ongoing issue.

How so? They are moving to the SEC with Texas, unless you mean as an at-large bid.
With the Big 10 and SEC expanding, the 6 auto bids to conference champions should be dropped to 4.
