Certainly not. I just put in some data in an insurance broker thingy and I would be able to get insurance for approx. 120โ‚ฌ/month with partially comprehensive coverage (including obligatory liability insurance). These outrageous prices are definitely a US thing.

This is why you should keep backups, which, for me, includes physical printouts of access data stored in a safe location. That's also helpful if something should happen to you.

You really should. Probably right now.

I also never understood why we are moving away from alkaline/NiMH for low power devices such as scales. My cheapo scale takes 2 AAA cells which I have to charge like once a year. They are safer and designed to be replaced. And probably also cheaper in production.

The one made out of plastic? That one sucks compared to the one I mentioned before.

MS Teams does not work properly on Firefox for example (I'm forced to use it once in a while for work). Same with other web-apps that often don't function correctly.

On Android Chrome manages to stay open while multitasking while Firefox will close the tab 90% of the time requiring reloading the page. That's especially annoying during check-out or logins when I need to switch to a 2FA app.

Eh, if someone comes up with such a comparison it immediately tells that they don't know what they're talking about. Like, linseed oil was also used for waterproofing (oilskin), yet it is quite healthy. Other applications/occurences of a substance simply don't tell you anything about it being good or bad for you.

Just like the MS office suite - you need to make them accustomed to your tools right at the beginning.

How can you make sugar water taste bad? Or am I not getting something here?

Yep, the other comment is even more ChatGPT-ish. And the account was created today. Guess that's a bot.

Take that as you will, but you sound like ChatGPT.

 

So I got my hands on some flower bulbs which are typically meant to be planted in spring and I was wondering what I could do with them now. To be concrete, I have

  • Dahlia
  • Mirabilis jalapa
  • Ixia

I'm in USDA zone 7b/8a and I could either place them on a south facing balcony or inside. I've also read that you can force flowers in a vase with some bulbs such as Hyacinths but I haven't read anything about that with the ones I have. Or should I just keep them in storage until next spring and plant them then?
