I am using Firefox browser on an old Windows OS. I used to have a Menu Bar at the top of the page. It contained File, View, Edit, etc. About a week ago it disappeared and I cannot find how to restore it. Advice requested from Firefox experts please. -

LTR Visa is Now available for Long Term Residency
No. They are actually encouraging exit through the E Gates. No confusion when you return. A sneaky look at my immigration screen on return last time showed some history so I guess they can easily tell you exited using the gate. -

Specific EV Questions
Until you identify your meter size you are just spinning your wheels in trying to nail down what "service amperage" you currently have. Assuming the mooban houses are fed via power poles & lines running up and down the sois vs no electric poles in your moobaan and all electrical wiring is underground your meter should be on a pole "very, very" close to your home...and from that meter wires run to your home via above ground lines or underground lines to connect to your home/main circuit box. Now if your home is really a townhouse physically connected to other townhouses then the meters for your complex of townhouses could be on the back/side of the complex all side by side. The picture of your main breaker box shows a 60A main breaker which means your meter could very well be a 30(100)A meter. Typically when you have 100A service (a.k.a., 30(100)A shown on the meter) you will have either an 80A or 100A main breaker vs the 60A you currently have. For you to have a 15(45A) meter (a.k.a., 45A service) the builder shouldn't be putting a 60A breaker in your main circuit box because 60A exceeds the meter's 45A meter capacity/rating. Maybe the builder installed a 60A main breaker for another reason like maybe the size of the wires running from the meter to the main breaker box can not handle 100A. Then again maybe the builder just figured no one will need more than 60A of power and a 60A breaker is cheaper to install than a 100A breaker. Go outside your home and look for the electric meter...it should be on a pole very, very close to your home. You electric bill would reflect the meter's long number and you will find that number also on the front of the meter. But if you do have a 15(45A) meter upgrading to 30(100)A meter may "not" be a simple meter swap because the wires that run from the electric poles on the soi to the meter and the wires running from the meter into your home would probably be different physical/amperage sizes. If the current wiring is say for a 15(45A) meter, well, PEA is not going to swap the meter until you pay to upgrade the wiring "to" the meter and "from" the meter "to" your main circuit box"....and possibly even a main circuit box upgrade if the box is not rated for 100A or more. The electric company has to ensure wiring all the way to your main circuit box is of adequate size for the electrical service you want....that is, 100A service. Go outside and find your meter...see what size it is...is it a 15(45A), a 30(100)A, etc. And also look at the wiring going "to" and "from" the meter....if the wiring is approximately the diameter of your thumb then it's probably 100A wiring....if the wiring is a little smaller than the diameter of your pinky finger then you probably have 45A or less wiring. Edit: and size you said most of the houses already have wall chargers well that's a good sign that maybe each house has 100A service capability with a simple meter swap and main circuit breaker swapout to 100A....both not costing much, quick, and easy. -

American Exceptionalism: Reality or Just a Myth?
Before and after the second world war there was a huge influx of Jewish people to the United States. Many of these people have been exceptional at creating business and wealth. In the 1800's there was a huge influx of Germans and Dutch who also were very industrious and created wealth. Many countries college graduates migrate to the U.S. I have met many Thai PhDs in the United States that have migrated legally. These people do not migrate to Haiti or the Sudan but to the country that offers them the most opportunity and in that lies the exceptionalism. -

That poster seems to enjoy calling people dumb. Numerous times over the last few days even.
