    @jon-nyc said in Predicting Tucker: If it was a lie it was Tuckers since he’s the one that said it. Well, that's certainly one simple minded way of looking at it.

    Boston College was 4 miles from my house, so I could walk there. My father went there, my grandfather went there. There was no need for any extra visit, an easy decision. When I started there the majority were commuters, after 4 years the majority were residents. I think it is now 100% residents. No more living in your parents house and walking to school.

    Excellent outcome. I hate that it happened in Ohio, but glad it turned out correctly.

    @taiwan_girl said in Hey Klaus!: What do you guys think of mirrorless digital SLR cameras? They're a bit better than DSLRs but either take fine images. Same sensor technology, although most companies now (outside of Nikon) are putting their R&D into mirrorless. Digital viewfinders give you more information than an optical, which is what you normally get with a DSLR. True opticals can't give you a live histogram, focus peaking or highlight readings, and digitals can. A lot of mirrorless cameras are lighter enough to be noticeable. The downside is the battery life, but that's becoming a moot point. The only reason to have a DSLR rather than a mirrorless is if you've already invested too much in DSLR glass for the upgrade to be worth it. Which it wouldn't be. That's why Nikon came out with a new DSLR on its standard mount system right before the olympics: the market was professionals in exactly that situation.

    Not sure if I understand, but to me, there is no way to make a guess any more accurate. If it is a true random number on the forhead, then there is a 10% chance of guessing correctly. It doesnt matter if every other number is "8", your number could still be anything from 0-9. etc What am i missing?

    @Mik said in Mr. Biden's reelection strategy: The president has very little to do with making this happen. It's a sentiment most can agree with but that's all. If I recall, the United States is not a member of the International Court. So, he has even less to do with it than you thought.
