No. Urban environments suck to walk around. What you wrote is utter drivel. If one needs to justify it by quoting authors, that suggests it isn't self evident and they are just trying to justify something that they know…
Much like the sibling comment I started walking around the local park before spending more time hiking. I live semi rurally though and wouldn't want to walk in an urban environment. I normally feel much better after…

If they charged far more than the market average in a given area then people wouldn't rent from them. Even if they bought up the entire area, people would presumably move to cheaper areas where they weren't jacking up…
I agree that most people would use the term invasion to describe it. But this story is related to how a betting market decided to pay out. The US forces left immediately after the target (Maduro and his wife) were…

That doesn't make it an invasion. It was a capture/extraction operation. Was it a large scale one, sure. But it was not an invasion.
Agreed. However what happened Jan 3rd wasn't an invasion.
When you are referring to a military action, invasion has a particular meaning. The definition on Wikipedia seems reasonable: > An invasion is a military action consisting of a large armed force of one geopolitical…
A hit in the stock price doesn't prove or disprove their claims. What would disprove their claims is the number of properties Blackrock is buying and if it is affecting pricing at the margin.
I think a lot of people mean "Wedding DJ" or "Radio DJ". However there is a whole small subculture around this. A friend would go hunting for records to sample in Charity shops for old vinyls (this was pre-ebay). This…
The startups/businesses that provided value survived the bubble bursting.
Most distros have a way of installing proprietary software via enabling additional repos after install.
That seems pretty reasonable proposition IMO. As other people have mentioned you can resell open source software. I have a big box Linux distro on my shelf here.
Or you could get one with a better service history, the paint job and interior is in better condition, and it has the optional extras and a recent cam belt change for $12,000. It depends whether you think the extra cost…
