Also I moved into an area where there is less snow, but when we get it it almost always starts as rain… Then snow… Which melts on the pavement… And eventually the pavement hits zero and all that water turns to ice.
Now you have snow on ice, which is awful.
Where I grew up is exactly how you described it though. Generally fresh snow is fine if the road was previously plowed / treated with gravel or deicer / salt.
My mom would also suggest a heavy blanket, and maybe a candle / matches / lighter. But the candle could cause a fire if you aren’t careful.
This might not be super useful if you don’t write code but I always found the contest submissions fun to read and try to figure out for the https://www.underhanded-c.org/ contest.
They break down and explain the runner up and finalist for each year and how the attack works. It’s usually something very subtle that most people wouldn’t catch.
Iirc that rule was followed here… The cam was to let you know when the fresh pot was ready?
That explains why I see coupons more and more. Ty.
You have me thinking of like… A ring around the equator with space elevators on it (with stations at the top), and “rail” tracks, with trains traveling between all the stations. Gaussian launchers sending packages to your nearest delivery depot.
Uhhhh.
https://www.google.com/search?q=what+percentage+of+homes+are+over+%241+million
Apparently per Redfin 8.5% of homes in the US are 7 figures or more. We’re not talking the 1% here.
In California the median home price is almost $800,000.
I’m in a HCOL area in Washington State and regularly see 3bdrm and sometimes 2bdrm condos for over 1 million.
Not to mention sure your home is equity or net worth but most people only buy one and sell it anytime they move. Many of these people also planned on selling it / downsizing in retirement and converting it towards their retirement fund.
Remember that “afford” doesn’t mean they have a million dollars. “afford” means they saved up a down-payment and then paid interest and mortgage payments (sometimes barely scraping by) for at least 30 years. Usually many more years if they moved from smaller house or a condo to a larger house when they decided to have a family (thereby starting a new mortgage for another 30 years). Or worst case, they haven’t paid it off and now are underwater on their mortgage.
The banks are the ones making crazy money on all this.
On top of that they can import your wishlist from Steam. You can set a threshold / price on each game, and they will let you know anytime something is below that price.
If you aren’t doing more you have a parity drive, not backups, to be clear.
If a drive fails you can resilver and your data is fine.
If someone with write/delete access makes a mistake and deletes everything, or ransomware encrypt all your files, you can’t just “restore from last week’s backup” because you don’t have one.
You know what’s fascinating about that?
I’m pretty sure that every CD had the entire game and all the art assets for every town / place you could enter on the world map. Every enemy. All the music.
The only difference between each CD was the FMV cutscenes contained on them.
At least that was the story / rumor at the time. For optimization they could have reduced the art assets and music to only areas you could enter at that point in the game, and only enemy models you would see, but supposedly that wasn’t the case.
Doesn’t this risk build up of botulism, which can only grow in an oxygen deprived environment?
I recently learned when defrosting meat that is in a freezer bag, you should remove it from the freezer bag. At least when defrosting overnight in the fridge.
While this is technically true, in practice I’ve found there’s always something the old PC is missing, tech wise.
Socket change. Ram version change. New version of PCIe.
Effectively you need to do mobo/cpu/ram all together.
The only other components are GPU and storage, which I agree are generally transferable, but depending on age you may want to upgrade too.
I guess PSU but that is thankfully something you almost never need to upgrade, unless your new GPU sucks down a lot more watts.
Maybe if I had an AM5 board I would be in a better state, but currently on AM4 so my upgrade paths are limited (already on a 5000 series chip).
You’re comparing a 2d custom engine. Which admittedly you wouldn’t expect to have multiple os support…but it’s built on allegro, which is open source c++.
To a 3d game in Unreal Engine 5, which stresses even the best systems running dedicated gpus on windows. Do many macs offer dedicated gpus these days?
As someone who once owned a car that shared a model number with another car by a totally different company… Let me tell you searching for parts was a pain.
The well known Mazda MX-5 might cause the same problem for buyers of this :(
Thankfully an electric bike and ICE car will be different enough that it won’t be too bad, but there might still be the odd crossover.
Yeah what a badly written article, with awful takeaways.
I was able to look it up for my Canadian university, somewhat. Every year they issued the Calendar which included a section called tuitions and fees. It can be slightly complex to read depending on the degree you’re going for.
https://www.ucalgary.ca/pubs/calendar/archives/index.html
They have all the years it’s been digitally available in the link above. I suspect you could go to the campus library and find older publications to go back further.
Generally you’re looking for “Undergraduate” and “Fees”. Depending on the year it’s a PDF, or a table in html.
If you’re not used to reading it it can be painful and more complex the more recent it gets. Plus you need to sometimes know terms unique to that university.
I. E. If they say Shulich they are referring to the Engineering program. If they say Haskayne they are referring to business. Most of the other programs are referred to by proper name, I. E. Music, Law, Medicine, etc.
Most programs are 5 courses per semester though some may have you do 6 in the odd semester if you want to graduate in 4 years (alternatively you take longer, like my 4.5 years to get my B. SC, or fit them in in spring or summer)
Generally you can assume a single course is 3 units, and a single semester will be 5 courses, if the table you’re looking at is showing you the price per 3 units.
Unfortunately while the course price hasn’t gone up huge amounts (until the last few years where they tried to simplify things with categories), all those extra static fees, or extra charges for specific programs, per semester have gone up a lot.
In 2003 the general fees for say engineering were $275. 5 courses were $2190. For a total of $2465 per semester.
Divided back out that’s just under $500/course.
In 2013 general fees are $588. Courses are $2666. Engineering specific fees are $30. For a total of $3254.
Divided back out that’s about $650/course.
In 2023 the general fees are about $834. The per course rate for engineering is category D, or $908 per course. That’s $5374/semester.
Or about $1075/course.
Hard agree… One of the most polished early access games I’ve played in a long time. I’ve started over at least 3 or 4 times now. Sometimes single player. Sometimes multi-player. Can’t wait tor 1.0.
Looking forward to finally learning what the few WIP (work in progress) things will actually do…
That’s right OP, the correct order is to reduce, reuse, and then recycle.
If you feel you can reduce use, or reuse any of the things listed. Please try that first!

Watched this as a kid in 1997 or so. I was probably 12 years old. Scared the shit out of me and I had nightmares every now and again for a while.
Great movie.
