  1. I've got your backup. 6 x 16TB spindles in action hosting a library that's mostly sourced in HEVC. With football season coming to an end and hockey on a free streaming app, I'm not sure why I have a TV subscription now.
  2. Meta would still monetize that by datamining your wearing experience and geolocation. At least I'm getting old enough to [happily] realize I'm not the market for those wearables, nor the 'metaverse.' Touch grass, nerds.
  3. Possibly related to this:
  4. While the DOJ's slow grind is working on RealPage and six multi-state landlords, Ken Paxton is pursuing Allstate and Arity, a databroker incubated under Allstate, to collect, model, and resell driving data of Americans, collecting "trillions of miles" on consumers and often reselling those data profiles to other insurers. It's widely understood that the largest insurers push their on-board telematics trackers as a means for discounting raising premiums based on "safe driving habits," but in this case, Arity was buying telematics data from third-party apps installed on consumers' smartphones and vehicles. Known apps which Arity buys data from includes Fuel Rewards, Life360, GasBuddy, MyRadar, Routely, and some SiriusXM devices. Allstate also bought this data directly from automakers, including Stellantis, Toyota, Lexus, and Mazda. https://www.edmunds.com/car-news/report-finds-apps-are-selling-your-driving-data-to-insurance-companies.html
  5. Sounds like I should pick your brain over the few neighborhoods I've been targeting in FoCo. I thought Portugal's visa system was among the easiest to get into the EU, but are Spain's or Italy's improving beyond their 'digital nomad' programs?
  6. This play completely changed the outcome of the game, had it been called correctly.
  7. I saw a mock draft grid today that placed DJ Ukulele at the top QB draft pick. I guess he has a chance.
  8. Now I can see him portaling for 2025. Who's giving him $4MM, Oregon?
  9. Put down the crack pipe. They've been buying transfer portal starters while we've been beating them at the last two classes.
  10. We got beat on a third down stop on a blatant missed hold that would have flipped possession when tied in the 4th
  11. It's not worth giving up a TD but he's smelling blood with the pressure on Howard. It's as if PK wanted to give the ball back with time on the clock.
  12. Not reading the LoS, someone has to pick up the blitz
  13. FNL is the Northern Colorado Regional airport, in Loveland. It used to accomodate light commercial travel, but was shuttered through Covid. Last year, it received Federal infrastructure grants to widen the runways (accomodating 737 bodies), opened two new gates in a freshly-renovated terminal, and has a project underway for an advanced, semi-automated control tower. There's a ton of tilt-wall commercial construction going on around the airport in Loveland, along with a massive, new, and mothballed Amazon Warehouse. If it attracts commercial and business commuter travel, I can see the area blowing up if/when economic conditions ripen. For now, the same job pays 20% more in the Denver Metro area, despite home prices fetching similar money. You'll want to be in Fort Collins or Loveland for tax diversity. Windsor and Timnath are going to be built out 90+% residential with most new neighborhoods adding a metro (MUD) taxing district, tied to a 20-year bond package. Fort Collins proper is already 70% developed, and with I-25 opening the inner tolling lanes, I can see future development fill out the Front Range from Berthoud to Wellington.
  14. I think that's a better idea, she'll have a chance to start fresh before high school, and you have a robust UC-Health system nearby for her future career options.
  15. I'm shopping Fort Collins right now and you might want to bring that timeline forward a bit... or buy sometime in the next three years. Opening FNL will be massive for the area.
  16. I like the ring of Riley Leonard vs Quinn Ewers.
  17. Anyone on the agent side have experience with assumable mortgages? I'm interested in a Colorado property and want to explore terms with the seller before originating a 30-yr at 6.85% or whatever cockery is being written today. The home presents a location upgrade and lifestyle improvement, so the math isn't there by walking away from my 2.85% in DFW, but this is what I want for myself. Pretty shitty time of the year to make a contingent offer.
  18. Anyone else seeing 60-90 DoM before the listing is removed, then later relisted at a similar or higher price? Sellers have a 5-month window to act (when cyclical buying activity peaks through summer break) and if they don't get the price they *need*, it's often easier to park the property or rent it out if it's being floated on a 2.89% 30-year mortgage. Better price indicators have been noted from homebuilders recently, where, in some markets, it's more cost effective to build than to buy an established SFH.
