1 AnswerOther - US Local Businesses8 years agoIs it better to do a car financing with your bank or with the car sales company?
I am making plans to buy a car.
I am wondering if, generally speaking, its better to ask the bank for a loan and pay the car fully OR work with the financing agents of the car company to get the loan.
I am looking to putting my money on an online bank, but they don't do any loans. That might be a reason to stick with my current bank.

2 AnswersBuying & Selling9 years agoDo I have to stop if the school bus is stopped in another lane?
I get confused when and where I have to stop when I see a school bus dropping of children.
If I am behind it and there is only one lane, its a no brainer. I stop.
But what if there are two lanes going in the same direction and the BUS is stopped in one of them? So I stop behind? Do I stop next to its front wheel?
Even more complicated, what if I am going in a lane going in the opposite direction? Do I stop as if there was an imaginary crosswalk in front of the bus?
Btw, if it matters, the state is California.
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics9 years agoIs it illegal to get an exhaust system without a catalytic converter?
I want to replace by cars exhaust with a straight pipe from start to finish. Can I do this in the US?
If not, can I at least remove all the pans except for the catalytic converter?
I dont know if it matters but the car is turbocharged, has 1 catalytic converter and two independent exhaust pipes (each with its own pan).
The replacements exhaust is not "DIY". They are aftermarket but made for the car.
5 AnswersOther - Cars & Transportation9 years agoHow does the relative grading system work?
I am trying to understand how the relative grading system works.
According to some of what I read they define boundaries for each level. For example, the top 10% will have A, the 20% below that will get B, and so on.
But that creates two problems:
1) If the class is overall very bad, there will be a lot of people that are on the A grade level that a clueless about the topic.
2) If the class is very good, there will be people that will have F even tho they mastered 80% of the topic (because others mastered more than 80%).
This makes no sense. Can someone explain how this works?
Thank you :)

2 AnswersPersonal Finance9 years agoHow do traffic tickets affect insurance premiums?
So if you get a traffic ticket you generally get: a fine, driving school and it makes your insurance premium worse.
Is this always true when it comes to the insurance? Is this a rule defined by the insurance or can something be done to avoid that insurance thing?
The state is CA btw.. if that matters..

3 AnswersEngineering9 years agoIs there any CCTV camera that runs only on a coax cable?
I am looking for a home security camera. I've found plenty that run on two cables (coax and power). Is there any system in the marker that runs only on the coax cable?
Some phones can draw power from the phone line to keep operational, maybe cameras could do the same with coax?
The reason why I am insisting on the coax is because I have PLENTY of it. Might as well be of use.
Thanks in advance :)
5 AnswersOther - Electronics9 years agoCan google show me just the unsafe results?
There are many levels of safesearch in google (strict, moderate and off). However there isn't one that has "show me just the images that were flagged as unsafe" option.
Is there a way to query google to do that? I want all the "safe" images not to show and only the "unsafe" to do so.
2 AnswersGoogle9 years agoI'm in heaven... now what?
I'm atheist first of all.
I'm wondering how the religions think about heaven. Ok, so you are immortal, you have "lived" your life, you know god exists, and everyone is happy.
Then what the hell do you do? Because that description sounds like a "hell" to me. So, I am immortal, in a land that I know all, with no goals or fears, nothing to fight for..........
I want to know what you think your heaven is according to your beliefs.
10 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoCan companies chat with clients using facebook chat?
I am making a software for a contact center. They want users to be able to click a button to chat with them, using facebook chat. I managed to create a window for the user to accept the friend request with the agent in order to chat.
However, I am almost 100% positive there is some rule in facebook that does not allow for this to happen.
It's also a stupid idea and so I am trying to find some facebook therm that says that by doing that they are violating the FB therms. I searched but could not find any.. :(
Can you find the rule ? (or maybe it is ok to do it?)

5 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police10 years agoCan you identify this computer game for me?
I played a game 1 or 2 years ago that I want to play again. However, I cant find it and I dont remember the name.
The game camera is "strategy style" top level view. The mouse is shaped as a hand. For you to move around you drag the soil with your mouse, as if the hand was pulling the floor.
You can bump villagers with the hand, pick them up and throw them. They consider you god.
I tried searching google for clues but these are very common names and descriptions, only someone that has played the game knows what I am talking about.
Thanks :)
6 AnswersVideo & Online Games10 years agoCan actionscript code be interpreted inside an action script application?
I am attempting to make an action-script learning program. This is meant to be very basic and mostly a test.
I would need the user to input actionscript code into the app (let's say via a textbox) and the app would interpret it and do something.
Can actionscript do this?
I searched this and I would say no, but maybe some genius out there has an answer :)
