My primary account has 17GB of free storage.
And thanks to extensive use of a Pixel 4a, I have over 100GB of photos stored in this account.
I personally went from dial-up to cable modem. No DSL or ISDN in between.
A few seconds plugging in? Are you just plugging directly into the output of a nuclear plant?
Are you really that dense? Once you plug in your car in the garage, you don't have to stay with it. You ca go into the house and get on with your life (or slouch in front of the TV, if that's what you want) while your car charges.
Please explain how people in Norway cope.
This will provide hackers more opportunities to create misleading domain names that look like famous brands.
But what explains haunted houses in the 19th century?
Firstly, they had infrasound in the 19th century. Think railways.
Also, carbon monoxide from badly adjusted gas lamps.
But they found it was not possible for anyone to break a glass with just their voice
No. They found that they could not break glass with just a voice, nor did they know anyone who could. Did they test every single person on the planet?

e.g. If the U.S. has 10,000 99.999% accurate anti-drone missiles that cost $100,000 each but Iran has 20,000 drones costing $20,000 each, who has the advantage?
The answer is obvious: the manufacturer of the US's expensive missiles.
Most times customers and potential customer lie and tell half truths just as much as the sales people.
The best deal I ever got on a used car at a dealership was achieved using strategies that are claimed not to work.
I arrived towards closing time at the dealership and, having satisfied myself that the car was suitable, I just sat there saying the price was too much. They kept coming down in price and I got a great deal on the car, when everyone wanted to go home.
I didn't lie.
Look at it from a CFO's point of view. The company will spend a bunch of money migrating and there is then nothing to stop Nutanix pulling the same kind of pricing stunt in the future.
Potentially, it's lower risk to just pay the Danegeld.
Dogs don't complain. They don't want the pack to abandon them because they are lame.
As a dog owner, you should know this.
