They are heading the same way we are as well. We are just slightly ahead of them.

The LG has a problem in addition to that condenser coil mess you showed. They have a badly design or made linear compressor that would not last. I know that they probably won't run as hard if they are clean and not overheating, but still, I just don't trust Korean putting enough safety margin...

Email refund. I live within 3 mins of a Home Depot so no big deal but if you drive 20 mins each way to get a copy then it is a freaking waste of everyone's time.

What is the reason it die so early? Mine lasted more than 29 years in one car and 24 years in another till I sold the cars.

I agree. US is already not in one unified timezone so why do we have to have a unified daylight saving policy or not? It makes no sense to me. We should just let each state run its own thing based on its own location. If it is so important why don't we behave like China and have the entire...

It is a mess dealing with metric vs English already. Have you ever work with India time? They are 1/2 hour apart from the rest of the world and people often miscalculate meetings and miss them because of that, and that's not just 2 Sunday a year either. There is a reason timezone other than...

I can see a problem before smart phone era when everyone may miss a Sunday morning appointment but today we are almost all on smart phone and things do get updated automatically. Is it really a problem anymore? If it was because of lighting related power use back then I can understand. Today...

Had a few success in the past but this just seems like another they don’t make them like they used to thing. No, it doesn’t work.

Again, it is like asking someone to perform a 235 points inspection (just inspection) instead of a scheduled maintenance. Unless it is mandated by regulation nobody wants to just pay to inspect things without doing something. I know it cost money but most of the time human nature wants us to...

I don't get it. If it is always the same and we just move the clock forward by 1 hour permanently, it would just eventually make everyone work the same way regardless of the sun shining at what time of the year, and eventually people will fall back to a biologically comfortable schedule. Like...

You know why they are in Richmond right? that's a place far enough away from high population (San Francisco, Oakland, etc). They also catches fire once in a while and spew pollutants when that happen. Most people can't live without it obviously but it is not like a great scenery for tourism.

It is pretty interesting to know how it works, my father in law used to work there right before retirement for a short time (contract job).

Repeat after me. There is always either high competition, or high barrier to entry business / jobs. There is no "neither". About roofing jobs. I would not pay someone $1700 to "inspect" a roof and if they are charging that much it means they likely go around a lot of places that couldn't close...

From what I learned despite "typically" consumer WD drive have better durability than Seagate (you can dispute that with data), the surveillance drives both are very durable. I would not be worried about saving money using either brand. As to 256MB vs 512MB, they likely are for buffering data...

True. However after warming up assuming the battery is liquid cooled you will be running at a temperature that the computer tells it to keep at.
