I have a landline, I hear a dial tone every time I pick up the phone.

Community colleges often hire teachers solely based on applicable experience. For K-12, teaching without a degree may be possible depending on the demand and where you live.

Precise time came to humanity with the railroad. Until then no one cared very much about whether it was 11:35 PM or "around midnight" or "way past bedtime." Train timetables were the first thing that made minutes matter to the general public.

Mariners cared about time and preferred to be as precise as possible, but did pretty well telling local time by the stars. Finding longitude was a problem until good clocks came aling though.

We do, it's called Universal Coordinated Time. The time is now 00:37 UTC, or 16:37 Pacific Daylight Savings Time.

The ad blocker fight is getting really strange. I don't use a blocker, but this morning I couldn't read an article on google news without disabling my ad blocker which I don't have.

I'm going to be a challenge. Please be patient with me, and with each other.

You say it's priced at 85K, repairs 15K. Would you buy it if it was in perfect condition for 100K? If so, buy it. If not, walk.

I don't know what your local market is like, but in most places a seller won't entertain that much price reduction.

It's been a long time since I looked at bar codes, but this link is to an old printer manual that has some useful information in its appendix: https://www.cognitivetpg.com//assets/downloads/105-008-02_Programming_Manual-HTML_revC2.pdf

Something like that happened to me how once. I was at an art gallery and asked if photography was ok. The guard said sure, and flash was ok as well, so I flashed him and he threw me out.

So, did the Englishman leave in a huff because he couldn't get a cab?
