This will be a completely new tunnel loop. The LHC tunnel will be used by LHC at the same time the new tunnel loop is being constructed.

Thanks for clarifying, much appreciated.

Would this be a different loop, but connected to LHC or is this a new standalone loop where they would need to find a locale to build it underground?

Pretty sure Microsoft is going to try and get a settlement. The evidence is very clear.

Except a state law does and cannot force federal law enforcement to do anything, no matter how good of an idea body cameras may be.

But is a federal judge ruling on federal agents, and in the case of the national guard seems to be under control of the state? https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10/12406

The SAFE-T act of 2021 requires https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAFE-T_Act "all law enforcement agencies to use body cameras by 2025". This is alongside research that indicates it is beneficial and cost-effective https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/20533586-cl_bwc-stud...

The judge's insistence may come from other times that a judge's order has been ignored https://abcnews.go.com/US/trump-admin-ignores-judges-order-b...

Fix deployed. I have added an "e.g." label in front of the placeholders.

Cheers once again! I really appreciate it.

Thank you so much for the feedback.

I live in Europe where mortgages without a down payment are quire rare unless you have an extra house that is at least 75% of the value of the new one you want to purchase. This being the reasoning because of which it is there.

About the whole gray placeholders - you are correct. I will fix that!

Great context about Europe and down payments, thanks for teaching me that.

Overall, love it. From the US perspective, property value and then down payment is an extra step when you could just start with total mortgage.

For user experience, the grey fields made me think they weren't editable or clickable until I got to the point of adding early payments.
