Thanks, but I wanted to understand what the actual problems of Time Machine are, especially with Catalina, and - most importantly - which are the symptoms I should be wary of.

I tend to fall in the "disappointed" set about this one. It is short, but 1/3 into it I realized that the author is basically rephrasing the same concepts over and over and over. Does it changes abruptly after the second half

Thanks for your suggestions. But I have to say that the title does not seem to be a huge hit: https://thirdcoastreview.com/2019/11/27/game-review-the-pit-...

Thanks, I am old enough to know of MUDs "first hand". But what I am looking for is a way to play casually with exactly one friend (who lives hundreds of Kms. from me) and not to spend more than 1 hour in the game at the time.

Ask HN: are there any roguelike games that can be played (collaboratively) by two players on remote connection? Mac OS would be a plus because both me and my friend use mostly Apple stuff at home.

My first suggestions is and will always be: "try joining a martial art dojo/group/team/association". Martial arts range the whole spectrum from strenuous to fairly gentle so it does not matter if you are (or want to

I use it often, mostly Berlin and Hamburg (but also Paris, Tokyo and Lisbon): I do not own a car so I mostly walk or use public transportation and the way they handle subways and other types of PT is the best for me.

I know it sounds snarky, and I am sorry (I even tried to apologize preventively, but I was in a hurry and this probably was taken as extra sarcasm on my part). Still, my point stands: I am not sure if this is really a matter of “SOME people

One question: are they somehow more efficient in answering to an incident report? My conjecture: I am not so surprised at these having the same % of failures - after all the TDD will not magically lead everyone to think of all the possible
