Not too bad. I limit players in a first game to 5 or 7, so that we didn't have to use the two hardest races but the Eni Et and Unity are either both in, or neither. (Eni Et interest converters work best with Unity grey cubes; without

Diplomacy is fun, but I don't think the amount of time and stress is compensated for by additional fun. I'd much rather play two games of sidereal than one game of Dip.

Many heat pump systems have "emergency" heat via a secondary electric resistive loop.

Are you saying that this weather is a 7-σ event? The report on the cold-weather-related rolling outages in 2011 would disagree with that. Yes, that only lasted 4 hours, rather than 4 days, but the risk was known, just ignored or accepted.

You might, but you might not. I have an 140 disk array that just works. Ceph would require multiple nodes, lots of tuning, maintenance, etc.

The challenge I had was getting the pharmacy to actually correctly code the transaction to GoodRxs PBM. Especially when you have multiple prescriptions and different PBMs for each one, they often get screwed up, and charge the wrong one.

Generally, it depends on the level of the issue and how long you've owned the car. The car comes with warranties that last between 4 and 10 years, depending on the part. They should cover this sort of thing. Issues that can compromi

Many people don't want to give their SMS-capable number to a random charging station in another state. I don't mind giving my number to my doctor, but a charging station is a different risk profile.

None of the alternate charging solutions I've seen are just swipe a credit card. They all want some way to notify you back when your charge session is nearing completion, or if you get unplugged unexpectedly. They also want the data o

It's twofold. One, they want some way to notify you back when your charge session is nearing completion, or if you get unplugged unexpectedly. Two, they want the data on your usage individually identified, so they can sell/mine

They are mostly standardized, but the UX still sucks. Tesla takes care of all the billing on their backend, based on vehicle VIN transmitted through the cable. All the other vendors have to collect a credit card or identify the user someh

Yeah, they certainly don't have the right DNA on the hardware side. On the software side, they've been working a lot more closely with JAMF recently, and there's quite a bit of enterprise support in the MDM space there.
