Good luck Dave, know that moving and job change are stressful.

Well, if you go for option 3 then Cyprus is a pretty good choice. Income is not taxable unless you spend 6 months in Cyprus (in which case your world -wide income becomes taxable). There is a surplus of housing due to the collapse of the housing/development market and the local financial crash, which saw the second largest bank go belly up. English is extremely widely spoken, and there are some good international schools.
I spent over twenty years working in the Middle East, but spent the last four based in Cyprus and travelling, and it worked pretty well. At least they celebrate Christmas and Easter over here.

I hear Cyprus is very nice these days.
My brother was stationed there with the British Army for a while back in 1974. He was having fun, swimming, eating fresh strawberries, enjoying the sunshine and friendly people. Who said being in the army was a bad life?
Then, all of a sudden, he was part of the United Nations peacekeeping force as the Turkish invaded Cyprus and all heck broke loose. He got shot at by both sides and the best food now was the fried chicken supplied to the army by a clever entrepreneur after the local chicken farm got bombed!
Thankfully, that is (I think) all over now, so if you go there, enjoy the strawberries!
Hopefully, at worst, you will get Option 3. Good luck.

Anyone have PCIe m.2 SSD ?
Time it takes to boot Win10 and get VS 2015 started w/ Sql Express running ? Anyone ?
Please write your experience here if any .. Streching my laptop as far as I can ! However, Sql Express 2016 has a Win10 requirement so I might be buying smtg else a little later ..
Thanks !

Why waste SSD on Win10?
And SQL2016 can be installed on a tiny Linux too...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I've got my first M.2 drive setup sitting on the kitchen table right now. Can't power it up yet because the RAM came in bad. I should have it up and running later this week.
I got a Samsung 960 EVO Series 500GB NVMe M.2 Internal SSD MZ-V6E500BW[^] from Micro Center. NVMe is supposed to be about 5x faster than SATA 6Gb 'cause she's running on the PCIe bus. In theory anyway...
I haven't been able to try it yet but I should be installing the O/S this week and giving it a little benchmarking.

Hey Dave !
Sorry to hear the RAM came in bad ! Feel for you  ! If you get results let us know ! I was wondering how long a typical setup took to boot with Win Updates, Office installed, VS 2015 w/ Sql Express or a Sql Express or some type of S.Express installation ..
Thanks !

Have it with Win10... It's ridiculously fast.
I don't do any development on my home machine, though, these days, so no idea how fast VS2015 is with it.
But considering how fast it brings up games... Even 60-gig MMOs... It's FAST.

It contained more than 20 minute coverage of a bus accident with 16 dead, after this 1 lethal car accident, Indian train crash, Chinese bus' close call with a mud slide, Chinese demolition record, more coverage of the bus accident and a little Trump news at the end...
I know, that television news "likes" accident, but this time they didn't have to try hard, because life made sure, they have content to work with.

Was the bus accident the Hungarian school trip? Two of the dead are the children of one of the teachers who actually saved many lives.

Yes, it was that unfortunate school trip.  A weird coincidence, that approx. a month ago I saw a burnt out bus in real life, but there were no casualties at that accident. These good souls weren't so lucky

One of the deadliest desease is malaria. Every day are dying round about 1000 people.
Press F1 for help or google it.

Yes, but to be fair, malaria isn't really anybody's fault - most RTC's are.
And we are getting there: malaria is the worst now, because we have eliminated smallpox - which was responsible for an estimated 300–500 million deaths during the 20th century, and had been merrily slaughtering humans since we caught it from a rat around 40,000 years ago. And the ones it didn't kill it blinded, disfigured horribly, and / or crippled for life.
There is a lot of effort and money - some of it ours, thanks to Bill Gates - going into eliminating it. But these things do take time, sadly.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

To be accurate, it's the viewer that like it.

30 dollar drone and a weee 80 dollar camera .. pretty impressive ..
I'm not adverting here but if you want to jump into this sort of thing these cheap (toy) drones and some with GPS under 100 dollars and a camera like this is the way to go...
Just thought it would be a useful baseline if anyone is interested ...

But you can get a drone already with a camera for less. So, why?

Whew, thank you. I was getting all worked up before but now I can relax with your permission.

And I was just pointing out that there are easier and cheaper ways. So, you dude, relax.

You are correct . You can get smtg cheaper but hardly viewable ...
You can get smtg with a camera installed for 30 bucks but no one would want to look at it ..
