Unfortunately I was in the room. I took him to the ER to get checked for pneumonia due to a persistent cough and fever. After the CT a very kind hospitalist broke the news. There were other extended family members that needed to be informed. When I told them, I followed pretty close to what the Dr did and said. I'm not sure if that's helpful for your situation. To use your conversation as a model.

For me it worked best to be as direct and clear as straight forward as possible bc you want them to hear and understand what you're saying. The emotions will come in later. So if you can do it, I'd say "I have something serious to tell you, I was diagnosed with cancer" then fill in the details. People will get upset and need some time to have emotions.

It's BS that you can borrow against it. If he did sell it the valuation would drop.

Hearing this made me sad that I don't get to hear most of the north American song birds. IIRC they were either shot or out competed by European species like starlings or sparrows. 😟

Holy shit, 20-60mg edibles? I'm pretty good at 5. Maybe you're going too hard.

Fuck off. OP wanted a way to avoid children while traveling on a public mode of transport. There's no box to tick to make that happen. Children and parents have the same rights to make use of air travel as anyone else. Tough shit. Kids exist. You were once one, maybe still are.

We share this planet and there have to be a million examples where we moderate our own behavior in consideration of others. Be one of those examples. Or don’t, but live knowing the rest of us hate you.

I said I booked the most direct option, not the cheapest. Yes, of course I'm the entitled one here.

I would like to see the full video. That's a pretty tight cut to the "action".

I feel this. I own a OG body style model S. I still have unlimited supercharging. The battery is starting to show its age and i'm sort of starting to look around. The Rivian R3X is my current front runner.

Start googling. Hardware or Software based? How techy are you? RAID should not be considered for backup. Think of it as an individual drive. Still needs a backup. Personally I use a ZFS pool in my Linux homelab that's been rock solid. However the pucker factor would be high if a drive fails.

1. Depends on how you set them up. There are calculators online that can estimate this for you.

2. I used NAS drives bc they're expected to be spinning a lot.

3. No. You will see better performance on average compared to your slowest drive.

4. I have no relevant experience with specific hardware. For a general base of knowledge figure out what RAID type you want to use. Look at what ZFS or btrfs can do in this space. Same for unraid.

I literally sent a message right before posting.

Spoiler - it's working again. Might be teething problems for a new service.

I bought a really nice Benchmade pocket knife. I like the way it opens Amazon packages

I have these and the left one is failing, much quieter. They also kinda have uneven battery usage. They wouldn't help with the quiet audio, due to the warranty expired. I wonder if I could get them to bite on the battery issue.
