You'd get more for developing the land, yes. But depending on your area, and how you develop it, you might not profit from it.

Land with trees on it looks nicer, and draws a higher premium, but usually only if those trees are mature and provide benefits in the form of shade, use, etc.

A scraggly patch of undeveloped land with some scraggly new trees won't see much of an increase.

Really depends on the market, and the effort you're willing to put in if making money is the goal.

I'll admit I asked that question before looking at the list. After looking, it only further cemented my pre-conceived notion that the youtube release is absolute trash.

A mere 36 movies, and based on titles, most if not all readily available from higher quality sources. None of them seem particularly obscure, as I recognize several actors' names and I'm not the type to care too much about who plays who.

I mean, hey, if youtube rips are your jam, go for it people. But for those looking for quality/obscurity, you'd probably have better luck elsewhere.

Is preserving the bitrate/quality of a youtube movie really that important? Did they upload anything not available in much, much better quality elsewhere?

Not just merely a machine powered by explosions, sitting on volatile liquids... but one in which we've decided that it's also a great place to enjoy some music, maybe a nice beverage, and as a great way to take our attention off into vast distances to the sides to "see the sights".

I think to myself as I steer with one knee, trying to simultaneously drink my coffee and light a cigarette...

Driving.

Somehow millions of us go hurtling by each other mere inches away in multiple tons of steel, often in conditions less than ideal yet for the most part, it's a safe way to travel.

We can't even collectively agree on most topics, yet we put our lives in each others' hands every day.

Even disregarding all the other drivers, we put ourselves in a metal can, hurtle towards solid objects, and simply count on the idea that on average, nothing catastrophic will happen.

Pure, random chance is enough to end us - animal pops into the road, a tree randomly falling, etc. - yet there we go, on yet another daily commute.

I have a long commute through the "middle of nowhere" so lots of time to think about things that ought to be downright terrifying. The thought of hitting one moose is bad. Never occurred to me until just the other day that two moose was not out of the realm of possibility.

I don't know if it's wanting to see "The End" as you put it, but at least in my case I'm just tired of all the "We're this close to doomsday!" stuff and think to myself "Holy crap, just get it over with already" - the idea being that after everything turns to absolute crap, the only direction left is back up.

Like either the world is going to end soon, or we're going to figure out how to get along as a collective, global society. But while we're stuck in between the two, it's annoying.

Put an N64 controller in my hands, and I've still got the muscle memory for all the fatalities in Mortal Kombat 3 Ultimate Edition. As well as Shang Tsung's entire move set.

Oh and HALIFAX? !YNGWIE! to unlock the Naboo starfighter in N64's Rogue Squadron.

I can say for certain that they dont. At least not all of the firearms. And "or else"? Really? Are you intending that to read as a threat, or merely a warning about said dumbfucks?

Because that sort of "threat" is a nice indicator of the type of person that shouldn't have access to firearms.

I mean besides the obvious in ties to a SovCit, the letter itself doesn't read quite like it should. The language used seems a little too basic for a financial document.

Though I can't say for certain, as I have exactly zero experience with financing a car through a dealer. Credit unions ftw.

Those dumbfucks are a vocal minority. We tend to forget that the internet is not necessarily representative of a population. So pretty much every "extreme" really ought to be taken with a grain of salt.

You'd think there's enough global support that something might kick off elsewhere in the world. But those not having to deal directly with the nonsense going on in the US have the benefit of being able to sit back and spout off.

Sorry we're not revolting fast enough. Kind of hard to do when things are generally equally split in the country, and the majority of folks need to keep going to work to keep food on the table.

Probably all as designed, but we're all too damned tired and those doing things we don't like know it.

Simplest way to put it is that prisons exist because some people simply cannot be allowed to live in "normal" society. Unfortunately, people have decided that this fate is no longer reserved for the worst of the worst/those that pose imminent danger, but now include "moral" offenses.

This is one of those topics where there is no "good" solution - only "less evil" options. And until humans as a species no longer have the various hold-over traits from our time before "civilization", we'll have to accept that we have to collectively make shitty choices.
