It is really a weird way to find out that they have stopped supporting File Transfer

Maybe not $1200 but something in like an electrified Toyota Yaris/Mazda 2 hatchback the ballpark of $15000-$25000 sure would be nice.

I like the look of the 2024 Fiat 500e but that $34000 MSRP is difficult to justify for a practical little town errand car.

Bolt EV is around $27K and believe Nissan Leaf is also in the same price range. So, with taxes you are look at max $30K. If you qualify for the federal tax credit, then you should be able to get that well within your price range.

Can anyone explain or shed more light on how the "remote hands" part the support would work in bare metal server scenario? Would they run commands you give (or) will they follow your runbook (or) something else (or) all of the above?

I haven't been following what's happening in crypto and was generally aware it was bad, but the last 3 months (that is how far I scrolled down) seems bad than I anticipated. The number of security issues, money stolen, and number of fraudulent cases is unbelievable. How are people still invested in this?

Especially, because it clicks ads without you seeing them

That is a neat idea, going to give it a try.

Don't have any big thought provoking comments other than the fact this makes me feel a bit more sadder :(

I'm torn on this. I think many saas type services can be a spreadsheet, but excel is only 98% of the way there. Because the main issue with excel is that it is local only and even then cannot be accessed even by other local programs. Hence all the wacky VBA "scripts" that turn into full flegded programs. I wish excel _would_ become a database, that is, a frontend to a postgres instance that could be run locally or on a server. Then we just set the postgresql srting in our app and everything just works: excel is the frontend, special features run in a sane programming language, can be updated seperately ect.

Since that will nerver happen, someone needs to make an open source speadsheet that runs on postgres. And yes, it does have to be open source because otherwise nobody will learn it. And it needs at least 80% feature parity with excel.

Excel can connect to postgres - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2T7xdNZ3Qc

That combined with some thing like Office365 or Dropbox type service and we have what you might be describing.
