I wonder if you would have linked this credits page had you been assigned the title "BREAST EXAMINER" OR "NUDE SCENES" like some others, haha

> (yes, I know I'm "supposed" to use hjkl, but jk has never mapped to up/down in my brain, despite trying) I felt this way for a while, until I turned off / remapped my up/down arr…

Subsidies are paid out of tax dollars. Surely you're not arguing that Amazon's 2.5 billion investment will go straight back to the city's coffers? It would generate property tax (i…

I actually went to a school corporation where this happened, about 20 years ago. I was in high school. School started at 7:38. We got up around 5:30, boarded the bus at 6:05, arriv…

Entitlement is receiving a brand new mower + fuel, in an area in need of its services and with residents having funds available to pay for its services, and thinking that your "har…

How about recreating a report to feed into a legacy system from an ERP installation with 5,000 tables and 12,000 stored procedures - none of which you're allowed to modify or face …

How complicated/extensive was this procedure? I have requested prices for many procedures and only once have I received that information (and like I said in another comment, I rece…

Be careful. I did this exact thing with my first child, but they billed my insurance company for the 35% they discounted, anyway. After something like 50 phone calls and hours and …

Maybe they were put down as a reference without their prior approval?

Is Hetzner not known to generally be a "bad" host? I have suffered so much abuse at the hands of their clients (DOS attacks, aggressive spidering/SQL Injection probing) that I've b…

Male with the most common American male name from 1950-2000 here (and top 5 for the last 100 years or more). I don't even hear my name when spoken in public, I only hear familiar v…

B2 has 2 charges: $/GB to store the data, and $/GB to download it (uploading to both is free) Glacier has 3 charges: $/GB to store the data, $/GB to retrieve the data from "cold" s…

I'm trying to use the nomenclature from the Glacier pricing page, where "transfer" is the verb to reference the cost per GB downloading the data from the remote provider. Glacier h…

Looks like this one is specifically for the Fremont 2 data center (though like you said, I imagine it's possible elsewhere or comparable). Thanks!

Curious - at what POP have you been quoted $400/month for a gigabit connection from HE?

I'm fairly certain that the calculator you linked is incorrect. Unless I'm not understanding the Glacier pricing page, it should cost at most $1,240 to store 10TB for 30 days and t…

We haven't "forgotten" how to do anything. We just let ourselves (collectively) become OK with projects that extraordinarily long, slow, and expensive, and the contractors aren't g…

I love Alpha King (and it's from my home state), but it's an American Pale Ale. Not the same as an (IPA) India Pale Ale, and certainly not the same as a double IPA.

This write-up is missing a critical detail - the article states "Wang and Yao have bioengineered a bacteria to break down plastic faster than the 500-to-1,000-years it takes for pl…

I wish that Hetzner would provide me with DDoS protection from THEIR users. I've blacklisted their entire IP space for several different customers because of the relentless onslaug…

Despite a fairly large number of users on XP still (2.5% of total users on some sites I manage), I'll give you that it works on non-obsolete OS browsers. However, those are not the…

One of them is tied to a root CA and works on all devices. The other is not, and does not.

A single population group (South Korean women) with an average height increase of 20.2cm over 100 years is absolutely astounding (that's 8 inches for those of you using freedom uni…

I completely agree that repeated attempts to ask out a woman who is clearly not interested in you can come across as creepy, and I'm not really insinuating that it's not a problem.…
