Since 2020 t14/t16 thinkpads no longer have a user swappable battery without removing screws. So you can get a 50wh standard battery or 82wh. Before 2020 you could get a slightly larger 96wh battery with a bump out, plus the small internal battery.
A power bank with a usb-c 65w pd will work for most laptops. Many of these will be 100wh/20000mah or 150wh/30000mah, to meet airplane limits.
The tv doesn’t matter much. Don’t connect it to the internet, set it to remember the hdmi port when it powers on. Then plug it in to an older laptop and you can control everything that way, play media locally, block ads. An Apple TV would be fine too
What would an app do that iphone mirroring doesn't?
This article doesn’t mention standard or trade paperbacks. With how much prices have risen on mass market paperbacks a slightly nicer trade paperback is a good value
Dual criminality is a requirement
The first $130k or so is excluded if you are outside the us for 11.5 months. Not sure what the amount was in 1997
California and at least ten other states have programs for the elderly to defer paying property tax on their homestead and the heirs pay it.
Macys went out of business in Sacramento. In a built up area, near a movie theater grocery store mall etc. The best thing that could fill this multi floor space in a developed area is a storage unit.
Online is still in business. I know some physical stores closed during Covid, not sure if all closed
Reichelt and Conrad in Germany. Digikey has logistics in Netherlands
There is a spark of creativity in the monkey case that very often doesn’t apply to dashcam footage
I’m not talking about piercing the corporate veil. That’s a whole separate conversation
If your negligence or intentional action causes damage you can be sued and you are personally liable
> It is not uncommon to incorporate when doing that. The idea is if you fuck up their site somehow (or more likely - they claim you did) they can't try and go after your personal bank account or your car or your house. Only what is held by your company.
This is a common misconception. A corporation doesn’t protect you from personal liability. If you intentionally or negligently damage someone’s property they can sue you personally. In many cases they can sue both, and it’s easier to collect from an established business, but that doesn’t do you any good as a freelancer.
Nuisance lawsuits aren’t much of an issue because insurance covers the legal defense and indemnifies you
Do you have any suggestions
El farolito is 9.75 for a big burrito
Saigon sandwich is $5.50 for Bahn mi
The registrar is not "just a proxy". They are the merchant of record, they bear the financial and legal responsibility.
Authors get around 10% of the cover price of a book as royalties, it depends on several factors. The rest goes to the publisher
. So some do lose money, but the break even for the publisher is usually well before the advance is fully covered by royalties.Well the publisher also pays for the book to be bound, edited, overhead for their staff, cover art. Many books don't sell for the full retail price and are discounted. So net of all of this a 10% profit margin is common, they aren't keeping 90% of the book sales.
Factory reset it then never connect to the internet. Use another device you can control for streaming
A license doesn’t have to be for an indefinite time period. It can be irrevocable
If you don’t “punish” slacking off your institution falls behind even if there is no sabotage
Usually you just hear about people suing the company, they are easier to collect from. Often they have insurance that will pay out a claim that is faster to pursue than a lawsuit. And if the damages are really large a single employee could go bankrupt. Also because the company is vicariously liable for the actions of their employees in the scope of their duties.
But anyone that personally causes damage through negligence or intentional acts can be sued personally as well. If the employer is bankrupt the employees involved would be the only ones pursued. And these damages are relatively small individually, bankruptcy is not an issue.
Also there are some exceptions to the limited liability for company owners or directors like for illegal activity and fraud.
Something like this exists with PPA solar leases, and with home batteries.
But it’s usually a bad deal for the homeowner compared to a more conventional lease or purchase with a fixed rate. The incentives don’t match up, there is also the issue of the lease buyout if the home is sold.
US law has criminal penalties for paying a ransom to a designated criminal terrorist organization or under treasury sanctions.
This is changing. Most states have “permanent” properly calibrated breathalyzer at every dui checkpoint now. And in an increasing number of regular vehicles
And then the next question, how does this affect consumer spending, what percent of purchases get the 3d secure message and change their mind instead of confirming the purchase?
How much is lost to fraud that would be prevented by 3d secure, 0.1%?
How does that work with using a camera to take photos?
