I hear there is fiber in California MO too!

I was recently kicked off of Facebook for lack of an "Authentic Name." Humorously my name was my legal name.

Getting kicked off of Facebook was the best thing to happen to my productivity and mood. My only frustration is that there are several people on Facebook I have no easy method of giving alternative contact info to.

I think it is a bit of a generalization to say younger people mix business and personal lives.

Opposite of you, I'm in my late 20s, the youngest person in my organization; and I get Facebook friend requests from people in their 40s and 50s that I only know at work.

Perhaps it is more accurate to say people who do not have the same values in privacy as you use things like Facebook differently.

I received an email from Vanguard regarding $20 for taking a survey. It seemed phishy as the domain that it was sent from wasn't @vanguard.com (or similar) and the enticement of a monetary award.

I contacted Vanguard regarding this and forwarded them the email. The representative thought it was a phishing attempt as well. I was later contacted by Vanguard and they told me it was legitimate. I was even able to contact the person that wrote the email through a Vanguard number.

Many cards in America have foreign transaction fees. There may be other fees associated as well.

That said I have looked into cards with no foreign transaction fees for future international travel. They do exist, but one more issue is making sure they support "chip and pin" for European countries.

I always thought it was from binary. 1 being on and 0 off.

Fresh out of college.

Discussing with others it was pretty standard from conversion through a co-op program.

$60,000

But, that is with the federal government. 3 Weeks vacation + holidays & sick leave is nice, but with furloughs I'm beginning to look elsewhere for employment.

I know spacex is hiring, a buddy of mine left for them.

I asked my friend, a native German, about that last summer when I was in Germany.

She said a lot of times that money does not even go to the person cleaning the toilets.

I did pay 1 euro to use a bathroom in a train station. It seemed to be similar to US truck stop bathroom/showers. As soon as I left they cleaned the bathroom.

I find it a bit easier.

Very simple and easy to use interface. Very visual on comparing timelines of flights. I'm also fond of the no nonsense prices, no added fees.

What is lacking for me are "fuzzy dates," when I travel I don't mind looking +/- a day or so to get a cheaper flight.

Without altitude and temperature a Mach number is rather useless. (Depending on altitude the temperature and pressure changes which has an effect on the speed of sound.)

Also was this just the Mach experienced at the leading edge?

I took that as a paraphrased quote from a tech journalist.

I hope you are right though.

I know from my experience with Flash on Linux that it is insane, Flash eventually consumes 4gb of memory and slows my computer to a halt. I finally just removed the plugin and browse without flash.

"Adobe says it has made tweaks that will shut down the Flash Player 10.1 when the system runs out of memory."

I'm not sure that I would call that fixed.
