I don't have any elastic IPs. The only thing under EC2 is a security group that it won't let me delete, but seems like no resources. My bill this month is $2.88 /shrug

AWS charges me $1 or $2 every month, and I log into my account and click through every page and can't find a single active service or any clue on what it's for. It's marked "EC2 - Other", whatever the f that means

Condos like this aren't really marketed in public. The exclusivity is part of the draw. It took some effort for her to look the part, they won't show them to just any rando who shows up.

Move to Seattle, I used to see one almost every day on my commute where it would hang out above the 520 bridge, presumably fishing in Lake Washington.

I love when the driver pretends that the credit card machine is broken then glares at me when I try to explain that I'm not carrying $65 in cash, then suddenly the credit card machine starts working again, and just paying for the damn

I wish I lived in your reality. Where somebody has a Plan and everything is going as it is supposed to. Unfortunately that is not true. The virus is real.

I've seen the demos of AI systems that can be trained on an individual's voice, and generate new speech in the same voice. If I was waterprinting a meeting, I would train a system like this on the fly on the people in the meeting

As other commenters said, the Bose headphones leave a ton of room for improvement. Trying to get them on the correct bluetooth device is something I have to fiddle with every single day. I will gladly pay an extra $200 for something that wo

Nobody who lives in a city can do this. I can't even do jumping jacks in my apartment without pissing off my neighbors. And this time of year, it's always raining so I can't do it outside. It's incredibly depressing.

How can you start a gym hobby during quarantine? Haven't been to a gym in 8 months even though I still pay my pricy membership just to support them.

Personally my ideal living space would be a huge highrise built on top of a grocery store and a transit station and next to a park. But many people are just so opposed to this kind of urbanism that I think it's always worth bringing up

I think you're right and it's also important to note that high density cities do not necessarily have to be cities full of skyscrapers. Old cities with narrow streets between short buildings can be very dense. American cities tend

2 is the answer. They probably hardly cared whether the rule was successfully implemented. They succeeded in spreading FUD and in the future, prospective international students will think twice before deciding to study in the US. The damage

I used this on the 2016 for years, but even though it's incredibly thin, it is too thick for the 2020. Would love to find a replacement if anyone has a suggestion.
