My mom would also suggest a heavy blanket, and maybe a candle / matches / lighter. But the candle could cause a fire if you aren't careful.

This might not be super useful if you don't write code but I always found the contest submissions fun to read and try to figure out for the https://www.underhanded-c.org/ contest.
They break down and explain the runner up and finalist for each year and how the attack works. It's usually something very subtle that most people wouldn't catch.
Iirc that rule was followed here.... The cam was to let you know when the fresh pot was ready?
That explains why I see coupons more and more. Ty.
You have me thinking of like.... A ring around the equator with space elevators on it (with stations at the top), and "rail" tracks, with trains traveling between all the stations. Gaussian launchers sending packages to your nearest delivery depot.
Uhhhh.

Apparently per Redfin 8.5% of homes in the US are 7 figures or more. We're not talking the 1% here.
In California the median home price is almost $800,000.
I'm in a HCOL area in Washington State and regularly see 3bdrm and sometimes 2bdrm condos for over 1 million.
Not to mention sure your home is equity or net worth but most people only buy one and sell it anytime they move. Many of these people also planned on selling it / downsizing in retirement and converting it towards their retirement fund.
Remember that "afford" doesn't mean they have a million dollars. "afford" means they saved up a down-payment and then paid interest and mortgage payments (sometimes barely scraping by) for at least 30 years. Usually many more years if they moved from smaller house or a condo to a larger house when they decided to have a family (thereby starting a new mortgage for another 30 years). Or worst case, they haven't paid it off and now are underwater on their mortgage.
The banks are the ones making crazy money on all this.
On top of that they can import your wishlist from Steam. You can set a threshold / price on each game, and they will let you know anytime something is below that price.
If you aren't doing more you have a parity drive, not backups, to be clear.
If a drive fails you can resilver and your data is fine.
If someone with write/delete access makes a mistake and deletes everything, or ransomware encrypt all your files, you can't just "restore from last week's backup" because you don't have one.
While this is technically true, in practice I've found there's always something the old PC is missing, tech wise.
Socket change. Ram version change. New version of PCIe.
Effectively you need to do mobo/cpu/ram all together.
The only other components are GPU and storage, which I agree are generally transferable, but depending on age you may want to upgrade too.
I guess PSU but that is thankfully something you almost never need to upgrade, unless your new GPU sucks down a lot more watts.
Maybe if I had an AM5 board I would be in a better state, but currently on AM4 so my upgrade paths are limited (already on a 5000 series chip).
You're comparing a 2d custom engine. Which admittedly you wouldn't expect to have multiple os support...but it's built on allegro, which is open source c++.
To a 3d game in Unreal Engine 5, which stresses even the best systems running dedicated gpus on windows. Do many macs offer dedicated gpus these days?
As someone who once owned a car that shared a model number with another car by a totally different company.... Let me tell you searching for parts was a pain.
The well known Mazda MX-5 might cause the same problem for buyers of this :(
Thankfully an electric bike and ICE car will be different enough that it won't be too bad, but there might still be the odd crossover.
Also I moved into an area where there is less snow, but when we get it it almost always starts as rain.... Then snow... Which melts on the pavement.... And eventually the pavement hits zero and all that water turns to ice.
Now you have snow on ice, which is awful.
Where I grew up is exactly how you described it though. Generally fresh snow is fine if the road was previously plowed / treated with gravel or deicer / salt.
