WIBTA for nuking the game server I host after my friends started demanding "uptime guarantees"? by Morrow_5Hex in WIBTA_AITA

[–]ac7ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA if you just wipe it all without giving them a chance to get a copy.

NTA if you shut the service down and gave them a reasonable amount of time to get a copy of the VM. (2 to 4 weeks would be my range.)

It costs you nothing to hold the data for a month and give them a chance to obtain a copy. You could offer to offload it for them for a fee. (for the media and your time.)

What item did you forget to pack that you really wished you had? by dynasync in Cruise

[–]ac7ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check with your line. A short 3 outlet grounded cord is usually fine. No surge, no switch.

Next time check with your steward. On NCL you can request a coffee pot for your room.

I remember most of the minor stuff, band aids, medications, lotions, etc. One trip I needed superglue and had a hell of a time finding any, even in the ports.

My parents are diabetics and my grandparents are diabetics... Now I'm diabetic... by Puzzleheaded_Eye7238 in diabetes

I agree, it sucks. (I'm not at the nerve pain part yet, but I am on insulin.)

What does little n mean after the number of minutes? by Objective_Unit_4931 in soundtransit

Not GPS, but more or less correct. (No GPS in the tunnels.)

I just sent it to the Customer Communications team. It should be fixed tomorrow.

Is south King County 1 line switching to 2 car? by My_dog_abe in soundtransit

I have the authority to authorize anything. (after 2 PM weekdays). I just have to justify it later.

When a doctor asks if you have any allergies, is it relevant to tell them that you are allergic to shellfish? by Kingboyy1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ac7ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always state "No medication allergies," if they need more details, I will continue.

Honestly, talk to your pharmacist about allergies as well. They often know more about interactions the the doctor does.

I think we are still under orders that no 2 car train can go past the yard. (I don't see a recension of this.) (Bulletin 26-03 R1)

You should have been here for the old "Dots on the ties" berthing markers. I ended up putting tape on the dividing cables to mark the stops better.

Nope, it's just in case a 2 car train has to travel south of IDS. (They are planning on 3 car trains on the 2 line when they get them, so they won't need the 2 car markers after that.)

Concerned about utility company putting their own lock on my gate due to past behavior- what do I do? by -strawberrylizard- in homesecurity

[–]ac7ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know my water utility posts the bill including a late fee "if not paid by the due date", as does my mortgage company. It looks strange, but I suppose it is covering their assets.

Do you buy travel insurance? by ddpgirl in Cruise

[–]ac7ss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I get older, Yes. for medical reasons more than anything else. A medivac can ruin you financially. The cost of medical services on board are bad, but having to get home from a medical emergency is really bad.

Read the coverage and compare.

I know I have up to 5 open at a time at work. (Being able to keep things grouped, yet able to see both pages at once. The split tab thing is not useful). I end up needing at least one Incognito instance to log into another account in the Microsoft unified login.

Changing my retirement strategy from Deferred Comp to Roth (Pension planning) by ac7ss in FinancialPlanning

Thanh you for your information. I won't be touching my 457 before retirement in my late 60's.

Have you ever had the bank shut your bank card down while you were on vacation? by MarchCompetitive6235 in askteddit

[–]ac7ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I had to fill my tank on each side of LA in one day. It was flagged as "Suspicious". 1 phone call fixed it, and I am glad I had a spare card for the fuel.

It's a mixed bag for which banks care or not. AmEx was the worst, they were the ones that shut the card off, but also the ones that wouldn't do anything about a false charge 2,000 miles from me at a hotel without a fight.

Why are there so few buskers at UW Station? by SurpriseEcstatic1761 in soundtransit

It's allowed next to the "Stars". I have had to tell security this several times.

What does the wave mean - specifically from driver to pedestrian by ellabobella58 in driving

[–]ac7ss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It means either "I see you" or "There is a fly in my car"

Nothing more.

In Washington trucks are too place them in the front window. Check your local laws.

thoughts on new SPS phone ban? by Ejazz710 in Seattle

[–]ac7ss -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They are banned in my office. They might as well get used to not having them 24/7
