3 years helpdesk, just over 10 years now truck driving. Pairs well with selfhosted media at the house, but not working on other people's shit.

It isn't automatic in the UK, but it is always a confidence vote, so if you can't pass the budget, your government is out.

Could you use masking tape and label the tray?

Also, there are 4 times the people as the US living more densly.

They used a pipe intead of "I", so weird.

That is a hilarious and practical suggestion. It would confuse and irritate so many people, even though it's no issue like you say.

And does the pigtail to the trailer support it?

It would actually be easier to have a float in the wet kit hydraulic tank on the truck side that alarms when the hydraulic fluid is low.

Not just that, but you need a standard to communicate it truck to trailer and retrofit it so it all plays nice.

Could be done on a dump truck though if there is a way to set a separate governor in the computer that gets enabled by the bed up light somehow.

Not just to spread it, they have to scooch a bit to let the material fall. The tightest end dump pile is still a fat line.

I'm not a true believer in crypto, but I used to play around with it. I have received a 5-figure USD sum of bitcoin from the MtGox settlement, and I'm considering my options. It is a true windfall. It was worth maybe $100-200 when I used to play daytrader and shop silk road with it.

We are on track for early retirement as it is, but my "smart money" intuition says pay the long-term capital gains and invest in funds, how we do everything else. More money earlier is always good.

My gambler side says to withdraw some maybe, but split the rest into a half dozen likely candidates for someday real world crypto use which may take off. I don't stay up to date on them anymore, so this would take some real research.

The weird Trumpy stuff going on with BTC makes me think it couldn't hurt to hold through the election in case prepper types panic buy it lol.

My wife says it's unexpected so just leave it as a high-risk part of our whole portfolio, but I worry she underestimates the risk and scamminess of it all.

Update: I sold the account down to 0.1 BTC today. I may sell more later on. Thanks everyone for your input.
