From HousingWire:
Millennials have officially entered the housing market
It’s long been projected that Millennials are destined to dominate the housing market in upcoming years. Now, new data from Realtor.com reveals that it’s finally happening. Millennials are buying houses. Lots of them.
According to Realtor.com, in January 2017, Millennials surpassed Generation X as the group that was responsible for the most new mortgages. Since then, Millennials’ share of the mortgage market has continued to rise. By the end of 2018, Millennials represented 45% of all new mortgages, compared to 36% for Generation X, and 17% for Baby Boomers.
What’s new is that Millennials also finally surpassed older generations in the total dollar amount of those mortgages. According to the data, Millennials now represent the largest dollar volume by age group as well.
“In November 2018, Millennials finally overtook Generation X as having the largest share of new loans by dollar volume, with a share of 42% in December, compared to a share of 40% for Generation X and 17% for Baby Boomers. This indicates Millennials are willing to take on larger mortgages than any other generation to fulfill their dreams of homeownership,” the company writes.
Realtor.com’s Director of Economic Research Javier Vivas said Millennials are getting older, with better jobs and deeper pockets, allowing them to expand their collective purchase power, and hence, their footprint in the market.
“The stereotype that Millennials primarily choose to buy homes and live in large metro areas isn’t the reality,” Vivas said. “Results show Millennials’ expansion is more heavily conditioned by affordability than in prior years, so their eyes are set on less traditional secondary markets where homes and jobs are now available and plentiful.”
Good Morning New Jersey

That may be the case on a national basis but I am not seeing it in the NYC metro area.
Top 10 Millenial Cities (where the millennials are moving)
1 San Francisco

3 Austin, Texas
4 Nashville, Tenn.
5 San Jose, Calif.
6 Raleigh, N.C.
7 Portland, Ore.
8 Seattle
9 Oklahoma City

#1 – San Francisco
I guess that includes homeless Millennials
Four of the ten most expensive counties in the United States are in San Fran Metro.
As far as the homeless there those 7,000 homeless residents in San Fran pales in comparison to the 65,000 in NYC.
The main difference in NYC is we have 326 public housing developments across the NYC City’s five boroughs housing about 400,000 people otherwise the homeless population here would be out of control.
San Fran only has about 2,200 units total in its Housing Authority. Whenever they propose to build a housing development the locals come out in force to protest, and most of their measures have been temporary in nature going back to the 1970s – 1980s when Dianne Feinstein was mayor.
Homeless are a feature now in San Fran on every busy corner. I have seen the cops in action in the tourist areas, after they put on the blue rubber gloves they scoop them up and toss them in vans and relocate them, where I have no idea but it isn’t to a housing unit.
Lots of scooping needed in San Fran. I’m surprised the left hasn’t told us yet that people who shit on the sidewalk are less likely to commit crimes than those that shit indoors.
“US “cash available to investors” rose 2004 to 2009 and 2014 to record $ 1.75 trillion in 2017. Big business + rich individual investors had no need for extra cash gotten from Dec 2017 Trump/GOP tax cuts. Those just paid off rich donors, thereby driving income and wealth inequality to new records.”

January 2019 house price data out today. Hudson County median price +11.8%, days on market -26.5%, percent of list price received 100.0%. All measures well ahead of stepwise figures.
Statewide not stepwise
Yo,
A small step in right direction but these are small speed bumps. The discrimination is unabashed in banking, healthcare, education and insurance industries. It is simple..you are dangling citizenship to desperate Indians while paying below market rates. They are working 13 hours a day to please the company who is really screwing them, in fact. We just hired a very junior L3 person here. Any fresh out of college kid willing to learn and some tech skill could do it. We hired young Indian girl on H4, I believe. It never went out to public because it came through Indian outsourcer. They have thousands of the people sitting around to fill US jobs, particuarly in New York area. It undercuts everyone and everything yet completely out in open discrimination. Nothing is changing.
Getting a little concerned here chi….
After two marginal weekends Red moves to 13 in the pairwise. With a slot needed for Atlantic Hockey (no one in top 16) and a good possibility that the Big10 and WCHA may have a conference winner other than the ranked team the Red can be de facto in 16th place. The final slot.
They need a sweep this weekend and absolutely cannot afford a hiccup against unranked St Lawrence.
That happens at best they are a bubble team. If so, IMO they don’t make the cut through the selection committee with three other ECAC teams in, even with Schafer on the committee.
Pull it out boys.
Went to UMass – BU game last weekend. Lots of fun. Odd setup of benches though. First rink where I’ve ever seen team benches on opposite sides of rink.

There was a time when government did the right thing… way before the bleeding heart movement and the discovery that symbolism means more than actually doing something. Now, we have gender confusion and flavored crayons that pass as success stories to the progressive misfits.
Impossible….. Yo’ says that Hudson County is second only to Marin County as a bucolic utopia for real estate.
STATEWIDE – So, after decades of traffic, taxes and more traffic, it looks like New Jerseyans have had it. A new poll from Monmouth University says only 50 percent of us think New Jersey is a good place to live. That’s a huge drop from the 1980s – when we were all so giddy with the Brendan Byrne Arena and a plethora of new malls – that we scored 84 percent in what’s called the “Garden State Quality of Life” index. Monmouth University reports the biggest drop this year is in the Philly suburbs, where they are all still suicidal because the Eagles didn’t make the Super Bowl. There’s also pockets of doldrums in Essex and Hudson counties, the pollsters report, where NJ Transit cancellations have become more common than parking tickets.
Supporting a leftist movement is on par with suffering from a genetic mishap. Progressives are disabled and to overcome their frailty, they attempt to even the score by redefining success, lowering the bar and adjusting the rules on the fly.
She is right in the sense that they’re now predicting that clouds will disappear within 100 years and temps will rise by 8 degrees. Might as well just chain your kids to the radiator and be done with it.
The error bars on the predictions anything beyond 2 degrees are bigger than the predicted rise itself in these studies. As someone who has published papers adhering to what passes for a statistical argument, you can’t make predictions on data that noisy with fits that uncertain.
We call that, reacting to noise. 8 degrees by 2100 is a laughable prediction. Moreover, the armageddon like predictions are even more laughable.
Why don’t you plot the amount of food production in the past 100 years vs. the rise in temperature. Has global warming been negatively affecting crop yields for the country ever? It doesn’t appear so.
The funny thing is, we all go to the tropics for vacation and clamor about how wonderful it is.
I’m pretty sure we are screwed. It’s insane that people are running around claiming that climate change is nothing to worry about. That’s the definition of insanity.

Don’t worry, guys. The adults in the room claim that we can’t make predictions, so nothing to worry about. These are the same guys that tried to shut our govt down in 2012 based on false predictions with our debt. So don’t worry about climate change, but worry about govt debt ending the world.
Or better yet, fear the min wage hike….it will destroy us all!

Global warming/climate change is fake science. It is a hoax.
There are natural cycles to the solar energy output of the sun effecting temperature that have the greatest effect on weather on our planet. Not Man made events.
Too many people live in a bubble of ignorance about how powerful mankind really is to change the entire weather of the planet.
Over 7 billion people burning fossil fuels for a quick hit of easy energy. Nah, they have no impact on the plant they live on.

I’m not saying global warming doesn’t exist. I’m mocking the hubris? foolishness? of making specific predictions 100 years out.
BRT said it best above, in summary, the analysis passes neither mathematical nor statistical scrutiny.
Like trying to predict the S&P or Super Bowl winner in 2119. Although, statistically, I would imagine the S&P conclusion would have more rigor and certainty than the weather.
Re: the Schiller numbers, feet on the ground feedback from an albeit very small geographic space….
Spent some time with various realtors in the last couple weeks in various social situations (yeah, I know, why, lol).
Anyway anecdotal data shows the moribund high end interest picking up. A few houses in the 2.0+ range will be going under contract shortly including one that was fairly stale. May be a good Spring season for sellers.
The answer to my question is: Global warming has positively affected crop production for 100 straight years. California’s growing season has increased by 50 days over the past 100 years. Do you know how much of an economic benefit that is? Overall, global warming has proven to be a positive benefit to the planet.
This mad max scenario is purely hypothetical and not based in any sound science. Human beings were able to adapt to a period where they crossed a friggin block of ice to Alaska with essentially no real technology. Do you honestly think we are unable to adapt to any changes in climate? We’ve already done so. Anyone who thinks global warming present even the slightest challenge to us is a true science denier.
The real crime of the past 15 years is that politicians have screamed so much about CO2 that they’ve completely ignored the real pollutants.
I’m pretty sure we are screwed. It’s insane that people are running around claiming that climate change is nothing to worry about. That’s the definition of insanity.

Please explain how they have farms in Arizona.
I already have solar on my roof. I compost my food scraps. I do not throw out most glass jars as I can use them to preserve all the produce I grow and I give them as gifts. Everyone I give hot sauce to returns the bottles to me to reuse. I have one bin of garbage to all my neighbors 4. I also save my starbucks iced coffee plastic cups and drill a hole in them to plant my seedlings.
In fact, the people in my neighborhood that scream armageddon are the ones who have 12 packages a week show up from amazon and fill their trash cans with a bunch of packing peanuts.
“We can’t take this lightly, we should be putting money into researching the impact on our future.”
Raising taxes or putting money into research won’t change the outcome.
The biggest cause of climate change is:
1: the solar energy output of the sun which will fluctuate.
2: the earths magnetic field slightly fluctuateing causing solar winds to hit the planet from different angles.
3: the gravitational pull from the moon effecting currents and air flow.
All of this is out of our control and the planet is going to change with or without us.The weathermen can’t even get the weather right a week in advance and you think they will get it right 100 years from now?
Good luck with your fake research.

Only your fake science says their is a problem.
Have we ever considered that we haven’t had enough data (from our lifespans and even tracking data) to determine a future prediction for major weather events?
Think about the call for another earthquake or maybe even another deluge of water in New Orleans?
Maybe some of the weather patterns are on 50 yr, 100 yr, 200 yr cycles? I just think its going to be super hard to predict these things. We can barely predict weather patterns more than 10 days out. Just seems like a waste.

What is the climate change hysteria anyway? When you remove all the noise and agendas, at bottom, it is advocating to reduce future human suffering.
Sounds as if pressuring and sanctioning governments guilty of chronic human rights abuses would be a far more thoughtful course of action.
Instead of wasting untold $100B’s on climate crap….. how about meaningfully supporting human populations at risk around the world in various ways? Oh…. I’m sorry, that requires planning, thought, and depth of character……. can’t I just buy a Tesla?

Yo,
Move to Hoboken, drive a Tesla, then wait for other taxpayers to rebuild your destroyed property. It’s only fairly recently that typical people decided to build high priced homes within easy reach of the destructive sea. Previously people were smart enough to understand that oceans routinely destroy things near it.
Nom BC, not BU. Sorry! Honest mistake.
On climate change. My guess is that the planet is warming naturally as well as due to pollution. But between technology and forced change, humans will adapt. What caused the ice age? Some say a volcano, most think it occurred naturally as the planet shifted on it’s axis. That shift is occurring naturally. Maybe it’s from all the fat people in the US?
No more clouds…there’s a new one. 4 years of Rutgers to get a B.S. in Meteorology, and one thing that never ever was considered a remote possibility was no more clouds. Even Venus, with its runaway greenhouse effect, has clouds.

While the Democrats were busy wearing white hoods and lynching people in the late 1800s and at the turn of 20th Century the real people behind changes we have today were at work in Government and Academics for decades to bring us modern food and drug safety.
The father of US food and drug safety was and Evangelical Christian and Scientist known as Harvey Washington Wiley.
The first safety law one of many the Pure the Food and Drug Safety act of 1906 was introduced by Weldon Heyburn (R–ID) on December 14, 1905.

Where your double wide now stands on the moraine of Wayne New Jersey just a short 10,000 years ago there was a Wall of Ice a mile high. A vast crystalline sheet of frozen water, known as the Laurentide ice sheet.

I don’t think anybody posted yesterday’s new tax. This one on employers.
Juice,
That’s all fine and dandy, but how long did it take?
That’s the point I’m trying to get people to understand. Climate has always been changing, no one is arguing that. What I question is the speed of the change and can we adjust?
Could you imagine being a plant right now in nj? There hasn’t been consistent seasons in a long time. Instead, it’s 60 degrees one day, close to zero the next. That is drastic change for animals and plants to adjust to. Remember, just because we have heat and ac doesn’t mean the eco system that supports us does.
When is the last time we had a spring or fall here? It goes from extremes over and over again, and you sit here and tell me it’s nothing to worry about. The change is extreme, and I think we can all agree on that. Will it get worst? I think we should investigate.
“Could you imagine being a plant right now in nj? ”
Truly the most profound statement ever made on these threads.
Clot would be proud.
Pumps – “the speed of the change and can we adjust”
1 degree every 72 years. One theory it’s called Axial precession (Wobbly earth) and determines how much Sun we get or don’t get around here.
Sure carbon has an effect on Global Warming, but Water Vapor is the engine, energy from the Sun is the fuel, and carbon is more of a choke on that engine. More water vapor = more rain or if it’s cold snow.
Now tell me how it can be so cold for so long to snow so much for so long as to create and Ice sheet a Mile High on Ratzer road in Wayne that lasts for 10,000 + years.
Science has the answer for global warming and it isn’t bovine genocide.
When you survive off instincts that are triggered by things like the temperature of the ground and air, maybe then you would understand the implications for the bio diversity we survive off in their battle with climate change.
Just look at what the temperature change of the ocean is having on that ecosystem. It’s changing everything. Never mind the impact of so much plastic in our food chain. Human actions are changing this world fast, and we better learn of the implications as our survival will be tied to this understanding.
Say it with me…. 7 billion population is changing our world quickly. To brush off the impact of the actions of 7 billion people on this eco system is extremely short sighted and plain dumb.
Just kick the can down the road, right chi? You would make a hell of a politician.
7 billion is going way up Pumps and they all want a double wide on a busy road, with a driveway full of cars and BTW the USA is only 4% or the Worlds population. We could all crush our cars and bicycle to work and murder every cow tonight and it won’t put a dent on what the rest of the world is doing about Carbon.
This is exactly why extreme climate change is scary. Look at the extremes this planet has already faced. They say 99% of the species to grace this planet are now extinct. I’m just advocating for trying to survive against impossible odds. Could just say, f it, and give up, but that’s not how you survive.
“Now tell me how it can be so cold for so long to snow so much for so long as to create and Ice sheet a Mile High on Ratzer road in Wayne that lasts for 10,000 + years.”
Yes baby Pumps you can sleep at night Dinosaurs are extinct.
Listen Mother earth does not care and perhaps once the sea level rises the population will shrink and the carbon level will drop from 17 gigatons a year to something more manageable. For you see do to technology that we created and that may create global warming and drown and starve billions we all now live relatively like royalty and most would rather die than give that up.
Juice,
Agreed, and thanks for pointing that out. I forget about human nature. Not worth worrying about…. “we all now live relatively like royalty and most would rather die than give that up.” No one is giving it up, it’s human nature to enjoy the now for all it’s worth. Therefore, the issue is pointless since it’s almost impossible to get 7 billion people to sacrifice the now for a future they will not be a part of.
Again, thank you for getting me to realize that. The issue is a complete waste of time to focus on if you understand human nature at its core. I hope I never forget this, and never waste another minute of whatever time I have left on this planet worrying or thinking about it again.

Your welcome.
My point obviously flew over your head and others. In the end, this discussion yesterday reminded me how horrible most human beings are. Could care less if greed in the form of burning fossil fuels eliminates human beings from this planet….we don’t deserve it. Can’t take care of it, so why do we deserve it? Money comes first, and the price will be paid.

The agency in question (School Development Authority) manages about $11 billion in construction projects for schools across the state. BRT always said the school constructions contracts might be the most corrupt of all area of “educational” spend … not to mention your own procurement story the other day.

This stuff is intentionally being leaked to make it appear that Murphy is taking this allegations seriously and an investigation is happening. Murphy knew this stuff all along, and Delgado-Polanco was in the middle of it. I am unsure why he feels the need to protect her. She is the worst type of graft scum Hudson County style. Right from the Menendez school of graft and self-dealing.
The firings and patronage jobs are unconscionable. The SDA HATED Christie. Christie was an prick to them, but it is nothing compared to Murphy.

Human nature blows. You can’t drink fresh water, the air we breath is poisoned, and you expect govt to not be corrupt like their corporate leaders? Just have to laugh it off and enjoy life. The human race is pathetic…..will choose greed over what is right every single time.

Someone here always says stop taking things to the extreme and don’t talk in absolutes.
My point obviously flew over your head and others.
Do you realize how many times you’ve said that? Do you notice the common variable?
Simply amazing how the republican party (trump had a huge hand in this pun attended) has brainwashed its rabid supporters into thinking global warming is some hoax to get your money. If that’s not the stupidity portal to hell, I don’t know what is.
Trump making claims that climate change is a hoax created by China….how far down the rabbit hole do you have to go to believe this crap?
“When looking at political divides, the difference in the level of concern is striking. Among Democrats, 73 percent believe the effects of global warming have already begun and 87 percent believe global warming is caused by human activities. Republicans are far more skeptical, with only 41 percent believing the effects have started and 40 percent saying humans have caused global warming.
Since last year, such skepticism among Republicans has increased, with 69 percent saying they think the seriousness of global warming is exaggerated, compared with 66 percent last year. On the other hand, only 4 percent of Democrats see the threat as exaggerated, a significant decrease from 10 percent in 2017.
As with many other issues, American views “have increasingly become politically polarized,” Gallup wrote in a media release. The global consulting company suggested that the election of President Donald Trump has spurred the growing political divide when it comes to global warming.”

Grim,
Our state government is so damn corrupt. It’s like every single person, in nearly every single job is a POS.
Yesterday, I boarded a city bus (in Manhattan) to run up to Sloan Kettering for a follow-up conversation with on of Daniel’s doctors. As everyone was getting on the bus, they were sliding something into a slot on the bus (I’m guessing a monthly bus pass). I followed the directions at the bus stop that said you must buy your ticket prior to boarding. So I purchase my ticket using my auto-refillable Metrocard and it spits out a piece of paper just as the bus is arriving. I hop on the bus and ask the driver if he wants my ticket. He doesn’t even fukcin acknowledge that I am there. Well I try to slide my ticket in the slot and it doesn’t fit. I was about to crumple it up and throw it at him when some homeless dude riding the bus for heat laughs at me and says, “no one buys tickets for these buses.” So I head to a seat, look at what I bought and it’s an honor system ticket. Glad there was a homeless guy there to help.
Fukc this country.

“When is the last time we had a spring or fall here?”
Here’s a little bit of freshman year Climatology for you: the “seasons” are a function of our yearly trip around the sun, where the sun’s perpendicular rays are the furthest north in the northern summer, and the perpendicular rays are furthest south in the northern winter. Spring and Fall are human constructs to describe the transitional periods between Summer and Winter. By their very nature, the weather will vary greatly during “Spring” and “Fall” as the entrenched warm or cold fights its replacement by the opposite. So the average temperature in middle April may show up on the charts as 52F, but the days prior may be 30 and 40 followed by a few days of 60’s or maybe one in the low 70’s. Averaged over 150 years of climate history, and you see 52, though we may have never been exactly 52 on that date ever.
Could you imagine being a plant right now in nj? There hasn’t been consistent seasons in a long time.
Sure there has. We’ve had a winter, spring, summer, and fall. And all the perennials are still alive. Dormant during the winter. Vibrant during the summer.
Plants that cannot survive these extremes developed this mechanism called seeding. They drop seeds and make new plants the next year. As the climate slowly warms over a period of hundreds of years (shorter than the lifespan of our plants), species more tolerant to heat will march North as they always have.
Species along the regions of highest temperature will evolve to be more heat tolerant as they always have.
Spring has always been unpredictable. That’s why groundhog day is a thing.

Altice just upped the charge for a modem from $0 a year ago to $4.95, and now this month $10. Is it pretty straightforward to go to Best Buy and just get a decent modem or someplace else. Also, across the street the guy who completely top ticked the market in fall 2017 completed his guy rehab. My son is complaining that WiFi lag and suddenly emerged out of nowhere…… I have to assume the guy put down a 5G web because I sudden see it on my phone. Is it possible that it is creating interference? If so, should I just drop some money on an antenna? It is just a matter of time before Altice starts charging for that too.
Recommendations? 2 smart TV’s, 2 iPads, 3 phones and an XBox….. no issues to this point except my son’s complaints about gaming lag on XBox. All standard issue from Altice.

I know I’m not imagining it….but keep making me sound like I’m making it up or imagining it.
“But climate change largely driven by human activity has been messing with the traditional concept of four seasons. Scientists have discovered that as the planet warms up, the tropics have been expanding by 0.1 to 0.2 degrees of latitude every decade, so that places that once had four seasons are shifting to having just two. But even in regions with four seasons, weather and temperature patterns have been altered. Across the United States, the shift from cold winter weather to warm spring temperatures happens earlier now than it did in the past, and the period of winter weather is shorter and generally milder. In the first few months of 2017, some eastern U.S. cities even were beset by startling summerlike temperatures in February, with many reaching or surpassing their all-time temperature records.
Climate change-induced seasonal creep, coupled with the overall warming trend, might make you wonder whether the concept of four seasons may eventually become obsolete. Trenberth doesn’t see that happening, but the definition of the seasons may change. We’ll still have winter, spring, summer and autumn in the middle latitudes — but the timing and duration will be different.
“A key point though is the idea of four seasons, and the way I think of it is the two extreme seasons, summer and winter, and two transition seasons,” says Trenberth. “One could redefine the latter to be shorter. In some sense, the summer is becoming longer. In some of our analyses we use N-D-J-F-M, and M-J-J-A-S with October and April as transition months! Spring has warmed a bit more than autumn in the U.S.”
He adds, “The summer is not just temperature, but also the character of the weather — more convective, thunderstorms, etc., versus winter’s more extra-tropical storms, cold fronts, etc. There is one analysis that suggests summers are now 13 days longer and winters are 20 days shorter than they used to be.””

I grew up right on top of the extreme Southern edge of the Laurentide terminal moraine in the Dover Quadrangle. If you lived at my address in Morris County 9,000 years ago you would have a great vantage point where you would see nothing but glacier to the North while Mastadons could likely be seen roaming around glacial lake Dover and glacial lake Denville, forming from deglaciation, to the South.
Pumps – “has no impact on our environment or stfu.”
Where your double wide now stands on the moraine of Wayne New Jersey just a short 10,000 years ago there was a Wall of Ice a mile high. A vast crystalline sheet of frozen water, known as the Laurentide ice sheet.
First explain what caused the Global Warming back that began 19,000 years ago that caused the Laurentide ice sheet to melt and the oceans to rise and form Wayne NJ before you attempt to explain man made global warming today.
Anyone who tries to defend climate change by describing the local weather is not mentally fit and certainly not learned in the scientific method.
My god, I make a simple assumption that there is no longer a true 4 seasons in nj, and get dumped on. Nothing new from the boys club over here….
Let’s burn all the cheap coal we can!! Climate change is a hoax. Let’s burn baby burn!
Again, you are a mental midget if you believe we have no impact on the world we live in. You are a complete sucker to believe such nonsense. I think any open-minded individual without a political bias can agree that we are changing the world that we live in by our actions.

Any MIMO router should help. Look up the technology. You can add a router to any service. It’s so easy even a caveman could do it.

Are we talking Routers or Modem’s? Optimum provides modem.
Spunkin, we’re coming due for another Yellowstone supervolcano eruption. You can ban the burning of any form of carbon tomorrow, at infinite cost, and it won’t matter one lick. Yellowstone will send any survivors into another ice age. And after that? Give it another 75 million years until the relentless drift of America’s west coast into Asia f*cks with global sea currents enough to shift climate patterns beyond what you think you can comprehend.
Neither of those processes us humans affect nor can we control. But both will likely wipe out the humans way before our Sun expands into a Red Giant and occupies what is currently the orbit of Mars and the Earth is not even a unit of mass any more, to say nothing of the humans that once inhabited the planet.
Router. You bridge it to their router.

Yeah. I swear. The bus driver did not even look at me as I clearly asked a question twice. I was very close to reporting him, but it wouldn’t make a difference. The whole system is corrupt.
I’m busy here at work, generating tax revenue to feed the whining masses… did Cohen produce the smoking gun yet?
Cohen doesn’t have a smoking gun, but does speak to how disgusting of a man Trump is.
A&E channel had a 4 hour two part b1ography of Trump. The guy l1es a lot, 1s an 1nsecure narc1ss1st, cheats on w1ves, etc. The funn1est new th1ng 1 learned about h1m was that 1n the e1ght1es Trump was obsessed w1th mov1ng up the Forbes 400 r1chest l1st. The f1rst year 1t came out Trump was upset he was only marked down as be1ng worth $100m. So he asked h1s crooked lawyer Roy Cohn (who allegedly had a gay crush on Trump) to call up the Forbes wr1ter to talk up h1s assets, successfully, and the next year he was marked down as $200m. That st1ll d1dn’t sat1sfy Trump, so the next year Trump called the reporter wh1le pretend1ng to be h1s own V.P. of F1nance “John Barron” and told the reporter what a great bus1nessman Trump (h1mself) was, and how much more h1s assets were worth than people thought, then even started complement1ng Trump on how he dealt w1th Trump’s tough father. The Forbes reporter recorded the phone call and only later real1zed that 1t was Trump h1mself pretend1ng to be h1s own employee. A few years later, return1ng to Trump’s fr1end and lawyer Roy Cohn, (also a congen1tal l1ar), when Cohn was dy1ng of A1DS, Trump gave Cohn a present of d1amond cuffl1nks to show how 1mportant the1r fr1endsh1p was. When one of Cohn’s boyfr1ends 1nher1ted the cuffl1nks after h1s death, he tr1ed to sell them and found out they were fake.
I bought a modem off of Facebook marketplace for $15 – works fine.
1:41 I think this guy Cohen is theater but he also sets the stage. Now if Mueller comes up empty it’s Trump 2020.
I’m thinking about switching from Optimum to FIOS after they dug up my street last fall. I get an offer in the mail every couple weeks for a 2 yr contract.
I bought this router in 2013, would it still work? I don’t want to lose the cable box TV functionalities, or have setup become too much of a chore.
Netgear (R7000-100PAS) Nighthawk AC1900
Apparently my 2013 model didn’t have MU MIMO tech. So would need another upgrade, or buy from FIOS.
If you are using FIOS for Cable, you need their router. There is a way to hook up FIOS directly to your own router, but not if you have their set top box. For most, it’s easy enough to bridge a cheap MU MIMO router to their Actiontec. Admittedly, the FIOS router sucks balls. You can find a refurbed or used MU MIMO pretty cheap though. Or just get the MESH, which is all the rage but beyond my price range.
If Mueller had anything, it woulda leaked by now. Both sides are going to be disappointed with his report. Dems will be mad because he’s got nothing. Repubs will be mad because he’ll try to save face on his report.
I then predict Trump gets relected…and im mediately fires Mueller.
I stream. So I need the top of the line modem and router for the speeds I use. It never pauses or sits there loading up. Picture is always spectacular (oled) through Apple 4k tv device(never knew how good Apple TV is…might be one of their best products).
Router is the most important thing. When I installed the Orbi, I finally received the speeds I was paying for.

You can build your own “mesh” wifi by using Apple Airport Extremes in a wired configuration. Just as fast as any of the absurdly expensive wireless mesh devices.
Just set them up as far apart in your house as possible, use only 5gHz. A1521. They need to be wired together. You can easily find 2 or 3 for $100 if you hunt around.
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202056
Don’t bother trying to use the wireless extended modes, you take a major performance hit. This is where the new breed of mesh routers excel – they don’t need to be wired.
If you already have wire in place, the Apples support 802.11ac and have some fairly good radios and antennas.

FIOS Verizon Gateway FIOS Quantum-G1100 is the router they are shipping, shall see if it is better than the old Actiontech. Once it is installed I am going to swap it with a purchased one and save the $12 a month rental free.
