The exact meaning of "4WD" seems to depend on manufacturer. Toyota's 4WD works fine on hard surfaces because the differentials are normally open, which makes it a lot more like AWD. The center differential needs to be locked for it to behave like your described.
I read about a fungus found near the reactor in Chernobyl that seemed to be using the radiation as an energy source, so it seems plausible for a plant to evolve to absorb RF energy.
Next time, see what a local camera shop would charge to rent some equipment so you can do the shoot yourself. It'll probably be less than $75 to rent the gear for a day. It takes a lot of experience to be a good photographer, so you're paying for their time and expertise, not their equipment. Modern cameras do a lot of the work for you, so you might be happy doing it yourself. On the other hand, for something like a wedding I would hire a pro if there's room in the budget.
Or buy one that's 10 years old and learn to maintain it yourself. Worst case, you decide you don't want it after a year and sell it. Depreciation from year 10 to year 11 is close to zero.
A float valve replacement? "Dave" is more likely to charge 450 than a "master plumber" because 450 is a rip off and an established plumber will have a reputation they want to maintain.
Unlike most other taxes, you only benefit from social security if you've paid into it. And the amount you receive is proportional to the amount you put in. Practically, it's far closer to a retirement account or pension than a tax.
Sure there are some cool and beautiful little historic towns, but you’ll also see a lot of towns that are basically just two truck stops and an RV park. Sometimes also a hardware store or tourist trap. And then basically nothing but desert/cheatgrass or farmland for 20mi in every direction.
But if the alternative is 100s of miles of desert, having a gas station, convenience store, and run down motel every 20 miles doesn't seem so bad. Especially if you have a breakdown or just need to use the bathroom and get a snack.

So do I, but there are enough people running out of date software that old vulnerabilities are still being actively exploited.
You have any idea how many people don't update their computers?

VMs have vulnerabilities, if you really want to be safe use a dedicated air-gapped pc, or don't run it at all.
Honey bees are another good example of this.
Maybe they don't count the founder as an associate? I read it the same way you did, though.

Only if they get caught. Seems like a lot of money for a flawed system.
OK, then what about the kids who only have 1 phone but claim to have none?

It was a joke, I think you skipped over the second half of the sentence.

How does this work, are all students required to put a phone in the locker? What about kids who can't afford a phone?
And what about kids who get a second phone to put in the locker so they can keep their main phone?
401ks directly replaced pensions for most Americans. It's disingenuous to claim they're "in no way comparable."
By that logic, a pension is in no way comparable to a retirement fund, which is a rediculous statement that no one would agree with.

Good point, I'd forgotten about annual limits.
Depends on how good your insurance is. OP is right, there's an added risk and if you have access to affordable dental care at home you should use it.
