What media has your favorite worldbuilding? in c/[email protected]

BattleTech/mechwarrior. I think it started as a tabletop game? Lots of media came from it, and video games pop up every few years starting in 1989.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BattleTech

The series began with FASA's debut of the board game BattleTech (originally named Battledroids) by Jordan Weisman and L. Ross Babcock III and has since grown to include numerous expansions to the original game, several board games, role playing games, video games, a collectible card game, a series of more than 100 novels, and an animated television series.[3]

Would leaf Springs for my 2007 Toyota Tundra from RockAuto or General Spring be as good as the OEM parts the mechanic says he would get? in c/[email protected]

Get the part that matches OE for your VIN.

I would trust rock auto, but your mech might charge extra if fitment is off.

MS isn’t bothered because the vast majority of people don’t give a shit. “Many” is doing a lot of lifting in that paragraph. Its probably more accurate to say “…a few people distrust Edge…”

Get the frozen pre-made meal or just make it yourself? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

I have two suggestions: homemade pre-made, and why not both.

You can pre-make things like pancake mix, taco seasoning, pasta sauce seasoning, etc. write any instructions on the ziplock bag or container.

Instant items from a box or bag can usually be dressed up with fresh foods. If she’s cooking then offer to prep fresh items.

Also, respect that some people simple have no patience for cooking and don’t want to learn any. Communicate with each other to understand how to make it work.

What was the most unforgettable interaction you've ever had with a stranger? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Slow day at work, called a Dell support rep to deal with some equipment that needed to be replaced and ended up talking with them for 2 hrs. I think they must’ve been bored too because I remember telling them directly that we could end the call or keep talking if they wanted. They not only were comfortable with it but said they’ve never just chatted with someone.

Same idea as OP, it was like catching up with an old friend.

What is your horrible Food Poisoning story? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

“Fried rice syndrome” is a thing. Room temp rice is a good place for the bacteria to grow and it’s heat resistant. Once in your guts it continues to grow on food in there too.

What do people that are for the first time moving to a place where is snows need to know? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago

Don’t use anything but a snow scraper to clear windows. Credit cards and anything else will scratch your shit up.

Your car will rust at a surprising rate.

All season tires are barely adequate. If you have room get a set of winter tires/wheels.

Remote start is a godsend.

I still have an old Kindle and it still gets months of battery life. I occasionally read comics so this may get me to upgrade.

(Sorry for the formatting. Copy/paste from mobile went sideways.)

We are announcing that on October 4, 2024, VMware Skyline will reach End-of-Life (EOL). | |

| This change is necessary as part of our vision for the future of self-help issue avoidance and diagnostics for VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) and VMware vSphere Foundation (VVF) as part of VMware by Broadcom. | |   | | Skyline EOL |

| VMware Skyline Advisor service will be turned off for all customers. All collected data will be deleted and Skyline Advisor services will be disabled. | |   | | Recommendation |

| VMware Skyline Advisor's features are being rolled into VMware Cloud Foundation and VMware vSphere Foundation, under VCF Operations and Diagnostics - "Powered by Skyline". We recommend upgrading to VCF/VVF 5.2 or Aria Operations v8.18 to take advantage of the new diagnostics and self-help features. | |   |

| Starting with VCF 5.2 (July 2024), Critical Findings and Self-Help recommendations will be available directly in the product. |

| We are planning to bring many of the other Skyline features into VMware Cloud Foundation and VMware vSphere Foundation in future release iterations. |

|   | | Skyline Health Diagnostics (SHD) will continue to be available until further notice. |

|   | | In preparation for Skyline Advisor's end of life, Skyline customers only need to shut down their Skyline Collector(s) and revert any changes made in the deployment of VMware Skyline such as removing any firewall rules or any accounts created specifically for the purpose of operating the Skyline service. Please refer to the VMware Skyline Advisor Users Guide section on exiting Skyline. | |   |

| Thank you for your patience during this transition period. | | |

|   | | Best Regards,  | | VMware Skyline Team  | | |
