I watched this from the UK. Midnight start, figured I'd at least watch the first period and see how it goes. All ready to pack it in with 5 mins left in the third but figured I'd stuck it out this long so I may as well see it to the end.
Absolutely insane when they tied it, and then of course I was up until after 4am and got to bed just in time for the birds to start chirping outside. I'm paying the price now but it was so worth it.
Just a PSA for anybody reading the thread, though it doesn't really help with the question at hand... On the very slim chance that your workplace uses Bitwarden Enterprise it's worth knowing that every licensed user gets a free family plan that can be tied to an existing personal account, provided it's hosted in the same region.
We do use it but very few of our own users are even aware of the perk so I like to spread it around when I get the chance!
Admittedly I only did a 30 second search and got the aforementioned Japanese company and something to do with the UK government. I thought it was probably too good to be true.
Edited the original comment to comply with the rules. Cut 'n' paste of reasoning:
It's the Latin word for map, at least according to Google, and there doesn't appear to be any similar entities using the name, just a Japanese animation studio.
It also rolls nicely off the tongue. "Have you checked on Mappa?"
Mappa
Ha, I've only ever watched one episode of Always Sunny and it just happened to be this one. How convenient for me!
I skim read the changelogs for breaking changes but mostly just YOLO it whenever I'm in the mood to update or a new monthly release drops.
That said, the VM that runs HAOS and the Z2M addon is snapshotted every night with two week's worth of retention, and I let HA do its own scheduled backups in case a snapshot restore doesn't work for whatever reason. So far I've never had a need for either but I rest easy knowing the options are there.
I lived in Australia for a few years and this baffled me for the longest time. I kept missing deliveries even though I was home, and it was only when I queried it with the local post office that they told me that the posties don't even bother carrying parcels around. They just leave them at the post office and card everyone as standard.
This isn't a Valve thing, its a USA thing
Good point. I was going to say that Valve could voluntarily offer a better warranty but isn't the standard in the US something like 90 days? Insanity.
Still, they could choose to match globally what they have to offer here, which is 2 years.
I'm sorry that you're getting less than sympathetic replies here. I don't know what the original was since you've edited the post and I don't have anything constructive to add as I assume you're in the US, but in the EU/UK goods have to last "a reasonable amount of time" regardless of the warranty term.
Some cheap plastic tat might reasonably be expected to last a few months, a washing machine maybe 10 years provided it's not misused. The further out you get from the warranty period, the more the onus is on the customer to prove it's a manufacturing defect, and the less you can expect in monetary compensation.
For a high value item like a computer, TV, or the Steam Deck no reasonable person would consider it a good run, shrug their shoulders, and rush out to buy a new one when it unceremoniously died 4 months outside of the warranty period. If that happened to me in the UK I'd be throwing the consumer rights book at them.
Sorry, I know none of that helps if you're not in the EU/UK, but contrary to what other are saying I don't think you're being unreasonable in complaining at all.
It's an 8 bay unit with six drives that are a mix of WD Red and Seagate Ironwolf, all NAS grade drives, basically. The other two slots have SSDs for hosting the aforementioned containers and VMs.
The largest drives I have are 4TB though, so maybe the larger capacity ones are louder? I also ran the fan profile in whatever the quietest setting is.
Wait, do people actually say that as "is bin" rather than "eye ess bee en"?
