The reason you need internet and "service" with Tivo is for the guide. Makes live a lot easier. You can create manual scheduled recording with Tivo, but it just a lot simpler to do with functional guide. I'm pretty sure you can use and record with Tivo without service if you really want to go...

TiVo. Before you say service, they have(or at least had)a lifetime(of the box) one time fee service option. I paid for mine some 7 years ago and haven’t paid a penny since. Box and service was less than the last vcr I bought :). Also. Look into Plex(free). There is a way to record live tv with...

of course it’s made in china, but that’s not an excuse for national airspace museum to order/sell it like that

If only they had Apaches back then!

Took my kid to Smithsonian Airspace museum. Bought him a toy Apache helicopter at the gift shop. Notice anything?

Well. The difference here is that brown is a shade of orange, so it does have a wavelength (orange) at lower intensity. Magenta is purely made up. Is it the only one ? I don’t know. A BBC video said so. Here is an interesting cultural color difference. Russians have 7 colors in a rainbow...

I feel like there is a GPS joke somewhere here, but I can’t come up with it: Magenta color does not exist. Every color we see exists in the visible light spectrum except magenta. Our brain makes it up. https://medium.com/swlh/magenta-the-color-that-doesnt-exist-and-why-ec40a6348256

They are thinking 2023 at whatever the that crazy price was is already sold out. We can increase the prices. Also, this is not even close to a new SR-22 territory. And good luck getting an SR22 in 18 months

Sometimes it's a pain with the genders in languages. I know my male dog is always offended. Russian has 3 noun genders. Common noun for a dog is female gender. There is actually a different word for a male dog, but it's not commonly used. So my family constantly calls my dog a "she".

Most of what needed to be covered has been. But I'll add something. I understand that you want this to be a seamless integration for your Roku. I don't know anything about Roku. However, many VPN clients have Android apps that can be installed on just about anything "smart" that can be...

General advice - diversify, sure. But the book would be a lot shorter :). Most of the advice of how to pick a mutual fund really does not apply to ETFs. They are un-managed and clearly defined. You always know what you are buying. There are also a lot less of them than mutual funds.

I wonder how the mutual funds advice in this book holds up in the face of ETFs that did not exist back when the book was written. Cheaper with a lot more direct control(that can be good or bad). Something that Vanguard itself promotes heavily.

While 40% is rather high, don’t forget state taxes.

nothing wrong with investing for current income before retirement, just mixing the two is not very good strategy. Too much taxation There is a number of S&P index ETF out there. VOO is another. There are also DOW and NASDAQ ETFs

The simple answer to your question is “yes”. But this is convoluted. Is your plan to invest in brokerage account to generate income to then invest into Roth? That seems like an unnecessary step. Including unnecessary taxes in between. Brokerage investment is really for income generation. In a...

Couple minor points. And I’m not an expert 1. You’re taxed in broker account not when you withdraw, but when you sell. Also this can get very complicated with gains and loses if you trade a lot. Be careful 2. It’s not 40% within a year. It’s taxed at your normal rate. Same as your other...

I can assure you that modern cars/engines are designed to reliably deliver a lot more than 70 hp for days at a time. Escalade needs about 140hp to travel at 100mph. something it can do for hours. And car’s engines do not live in a much easier steady state. as far as planes, most cruise at...

well. That’s a different problem. 150 is 1. Old. 2. Problematic with UL, 3. Problematic with available panel or just not worth updating to anything useful beyond basics. and ratty paint may be cheaper, but now we are going to unappealing for most would be pilots And it’s still not cheaper than...

It's not that I think that you are wrong. I think that what you say makes perfect sense and I listed basically the same reasons why there is no demand for this in a private use piston GA. But this is the attitude that left GA engine tech so far behind. Or would have no aviation at all. The...

For a private pilot the cost proposition does not make sense. Spread over some 20 years it is peanuts compared to the cost of the plane. You'd have to sell it on tech proposition(full FADEC, engine monitoring and control, stuff like that). For that you need specific types of people. The...
