Watched first episode last night. Character and plot development mainly but it kept my interest throughout, which is rare these days. Looking forward to the next 7 episodes. It is an HBO series which is a good thing as HBO typically has good stuff. And the guy that plays the Mandalorian as the main character.

I don't any more. No need. I'm ok with the over 9% average annual return I've averaged over the last 40 years with mutual funds. Why waste all that time and energy trading stocks? People need to realize investing is a long term game. You have the rest of your life. Too many treat it like they are in Vegas and they only have until they fly home on Tuesday to win it all.

Vanguard did the same to me. I closed the brokerage account and just use their mutual funds now. Reasonable returns with low fees and very little effort. Their primecap funds have a good long term performance.

Maybe you should get a second opinion. ????

Bitcoin is dead/dying. It was a ponzi scheme. Suckers.

Sorry, nobody is wondering about bitcoin.

There are foreigners who live in hotels here full time. Mainly for the daily service, and maybe help in an emergency. Check with your local immigration office what they would require from a hotel under these circumstances, and ensure your hotel can provide them. This is not an insurmountable problem. It will just take a bit of work. I just rent a condo for a month or two and get the owner or agent to provide the docs.

Trump's big problem with the documents is that he failed to return them when requested, and lied about not having more. That's called obstruction of justice. All the whataboutisms coming from the trump cult mean nothing unless they can show obstruction of justice.

Season 1 is superb. Season 2 not so much. I think they changed directors...

Ringworld, by Larry Niven. With Amazon doing a TV series, thought I'd read it again to make the series more understandable.

Depends on the hotel and IO. Ask the IO you are/will be using what they need from a hotel. All the stuff I've seen has info requirements for renters, personal owners, and ownership by a business.

A tm30 is used to show where you stayed. It is one of many documents required on proof of residence, which vary of course depending on whether you own or rent. Maybe your local IO accepts only a tm30, but none I have used do.

Thanks. No more empty arguments from dr jack.

I saw no other options. Put up or shut up.

You need it to renew yur next 1 year extension, as I indicated. You might be able to get a hotel to provide the necessary documents, but I've never done that. Owning a condo would be another route.

I do exactly as you want to. Jing is correct. No limits, as long as you have a lease in place when you want to renew.

Speaker Dunsel has taken the helm. He's given away all the power that should go with that position to the right wing loonies as that was the only way he could get the position. One or two months and he'll be out.

Try him as an adult. Fun time for him in prison.

Should have stuck it out, all those arbitrary sci-fi gadgets and jargon were integral to the story, and it played out well. And sorry, rereading my post showed it to be somewhat ambiguous. It was meant to inform that if you liked the peripheral, you would also like season 1 of altered carbon, and if you hadn't seen it already, check it out.

The peripheral is the best action sci-fi since the first season of Altered Carbon maybe 5 years ago. Check it out, you won't be disappointed.

Cloudflare is notorious for indiscriminate blocking website access. Personally I use 3 different browsers to access the net, depending on the site I access. I believe cloudflare has minimum browser characteristics that need to be met before they allow access. Changing browsers will fix this issue. Try the current version of chrome and you should be ok.

I thought this was over, thanks for the heads up. Great series.
