Xfinity (aka Comcast, using existing coaxial cable lines originally strung up for analog cable tv signals) is an inferior technology to FIOS (fiber optic lines specifically intended for digital signals). It's not a matter of opinion. Xfinity's technology shares bandwidth with your neighbors, so the suckage can increase during times of heavy use. I'm guessing many people took a hit during the pandemic when everyone was suddenly doing two way video conferencing all day.

Got a bike? PG County has tons of green areas all accessible by bike trails that connect with the Anacostia River Trail and NW including Lake Artemesia and Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, as well as smaller parks closer in. Just turn on Google Maps bike overlay and look at all the green spaces and how they connect. If you want a comprehensive introduction, sign up for WABA's Cider Ride which is happening next week.

Of course you can walk these trails too, though it'll be harder to reach some of the farther-out areas.

I had never heard of any of these before. Reading up on barn hunt, it sounds like they use "trained rats" stuck in tubes that the dogs sniff out... that actually sounds crueler to me for the rats than dogs actually killing them, which is over in a second. But the other two sound great for a high-energy dog.

So you're trying to argue that the grace window needs a grace window? Come on. Be an adult, stop whining, and pay your ticket.
