Building a glorified vending machine is not disruptive. This is actually a head scratcher given amazon's clear market leading logistics. They can't make any money doing this. Pharmacists are not the enemy. They do serve an important role in making sure people get what they are supposed to. The support staff in pharmacies is shockingly incompetent at doing simple tasks correctly every time.

Like Steve Irwin dying from a stupid sting ray

Agree. I have had one for about 10 years and the app canâ(TM)t even set the basic time and temperature settings reliably. Itâ(TM)s also not a great method of cooking. Sure your meat may not have a temperature gradient, but thereâ(TM)s no flavor from browning reactions. Cooking a steak once on high heat is so much better and less effort than cooking it in water, then drying it thoroughly, then cooking it again. I mainly use it to reheat frozen vac sealed bag of leftover bbq cooked on the smoker. Reheated meat is better than fresh.

Pro tip: there is a bios setting to flip it.

No. The energy consumption in an AC goes to condensing water out of the air (latent heat of evaporation) and to cooling the remaining mass of air. You may be shocked to know how much energy is in humid air compared to dry air.

Youâ(TM)re cooking it too hot. Turn heat down to lowest setting when youâ(TM)re cooking it. Once itâ(TM)s at a boil it doesnâ(TM)t take much heat to maintain. I used to use a rice cooker for same reason. Then I learned to cook it on the stove top and now thatâ(TM)s what I do all the time. And it doesnâ(TM)t stick or burn.

Last weekend I gave an old iPhone 7 Plus to someone whose daughter needed it for a diabetes monitor app. I factory reset it and unlinked my Apple ID. When it powered back up it said it was now owned by 1*******@1*******. Definitely not me. Apple wouldnâ(TM)t help regain ownership even with the original sales receipt from 2017. So no app for the little girl and I have a brick phone.

We did this for a work project recently using a major automation supplier's software. Even with the most powerful Xeon+RadeonRTX machine we could buy, and a very simplified model, it took 100x real time to run. So I get why NV wants to go this direction.... it's not useful without extreme computing power.

The software is necessarily insanely complicated too and it took a team of high end of people to build (or worse, manage) the models. It was cool what it could do if you could figure out how to make it work though.

In the end we just scrapped it and asked for our money back. For what we were doing it would have been cheaper to rebuild the machines from scratch than screw around with the modeling.

No need. Even the most basic SXM plans come with the streaming app that has even more channels that the satellite does. I listen to SXM more on my Sonos when at home and on my phone while out walking. They know satellite is dead and have already said they aren't launchign anymore.

I have to do the same song and dance with them every year. Their best deal is $4/mo right now. I do pay that since its better than listening to the trash terrestrial radio in the car. I think they are easy to cancel, but you do have to be very firm with them.

Same as everything else.... whatever the market will bear.

Can confirm their Indian help desk is unable to solve even the most basic problems. Theyâ(TM)ll close your ticket complete though without fixing a damn thing too.

Spent a number of years working with this company. Mind boggling inept group of people and leadership. They spent $150 million on a bottle filling line I worked on that was outperformed by $2 million ones they already had. Management just couldnâ(TM)t understand that something poorly engineered wouldnâ(TM)t work no matter how much money they threw at it. In the end they moth balled it and hid the fact from their shareholders because it was too big to fail.

I did my undergrad in SB and can confirm the weather is basically about as perfect as you can get. In the 4 years i was there I had $0 in HVAC costs. Too hot? Open the windows. Too cold? Close the windows. But I graduated and left because there is more to life than good weather.

Same observation here. I donâ(TM)t have issues with their salaries because the hours they put in, plus the value they provide is unique. The bad ones donâ(TM)t stay CEO long.
