Unfortunately instead of having enough staff the solution is to lock everything up. If there was enough staff they wouldn't need to lock everything up. Walmart does this all the time. My sister has found that it's easier to do parking lot pickup rather than trying to get things opened. I suspect that getting customers to do parking lot pickup is the desired result which means that can further reduce the number of employees.

Unfortunately this scam exploits the fact there are no restrictions for pm for new members. The first twenty five posts are moderated though. The pattern is always the same a new member with no post count referring to an third party that has the item for sale. This scam is called the WTB(want to buy " scam and is not limited to just this site.

The current changes eliminate the tariff exception on toys.

Past performance is not an indicator of future results is a common investment disclaimer.

I believe the biggest issue is that in the past items less than $800 did not have to be handled by customs. That threshold has changed and the system does not have the resources to handle the new volumes. Hopefully the issues will be addressed.

A common phrase in computers is garbage out. This is a perfect example of that.

Glad I could help. Another good website. Here is another great site. The late Donn Yost series of fundamental Fridays is also another great source for beginners. Tons of great info in the series.

I like to listen to Sci fi stories and other fictional stories. One thing that most of the AI used to vocalize the text has a hard time distinguishing pronunciation by context. For example the word read which can be pronounced as red or Reed. Which makes me skeptical of trusting AI to do something as important as medical diagnosis or any other critical diagnosis.

Although there is potential for the terminator scenario I think the more devastating issue will be the loss of jobs in so many fields. Second is the over dependence on technology. Recently United airlines had to ground all domestic flights becuase the computer for weight balancing and fuel consumption went down. In the past before the dependence on technology this task would have been done manually. Another hazard is the he skills for doing basic tasks without technology will atrophy. Third studies with MRIs have shown that using technology uses different pathways in the brain than doing tasks without it. Fourth besides the potential for AI to be maliously used there is also the potential for hackers to corrupt AI and create mayhem.

Here is a link for building an AMT 1950 convertible. Some great tips for making sure everything thing fits before painting.

Went to the store today and saw that the powerball was 700 million. I bought one ticket. Now I get to think about all the things I could do with that money. I would help family and friends. In addition I would set up a workshop that would allow to make lots of modeling projects, and electronic projects.

Nice work. You will learn something from each build and you will get better at it. As you have done when something doesn't go right figure out what happen so you can avoid that issue in the future.

Ads pay for clicks and views. 1000 views pay a small amount while clicks generate more revenue. That's why there are clickbait ads to entice people to click on the ad itself.

I have no issue with the paying for no ads as long as the free access allows access to everything available now in some form. The pay feature should be added value. Adding selling is added value. Trades and wanted items should be accessible but have posting limits with additional access to more listing's is reasonable. I think making existing features premium access is artificially creating value. Personally I don't believe that there are that many people that bothered by the ads and this is an attempt to fix something that isn't a big issue. And the more complexity that is created means more resources required to administer it. Curious to see how this gets resolved.

Well if you can't please everyone just block adblockers. It's not that difficult to just ignore the ads. I see only 40 members and 160 guests right now. All of the guests see the ads. How many of those members care about the ads?
