I'm a banjo player, looking for people to jam with.

I believe previous games allowed custom city names. I'd like to change some of the city names to modern names.

My gunner and I had a total rampage game in a Bren Carrier recently. It's small, reasonably quick, and quite hard to be sniped out of at a distance. The enemy was streaming around in the usual disorganized manner. We drove around and cut them down with ease, relocating quickly after each engagement. We even towed an anti tank gun behind us to set up at sneaky locations.

This went on for quite a while, but we eventually got greedy, stayed put for too long, and were run up on from behind by someone sneaky. We tried to retrieve the vehicle but it had been blown up by then.

Any similar experiences? The MG42 on the German half-track is pretty useless in comparison. Too exposed.

The amount of management required to maintain the spawn point is taking away from my ability to lead effectively in other areas, such as fire and maneuver. I'm spending too much time micromanaging my radio man, or even dying intentionally, to ensure my section does not get wiped out of the combat area. While I am busy doing this, I am not leading. This is not good game design.

Thoughts?

I am a Canadian moving to NYC for work. My salary will be 120k/year. I have no debt, but also negligible savings at this time. Now that I am debt free, I should be able to start saving money.

I plan to be in NYC for approximately five years, before relocating somewhere else.

A one bedroom in the outer areas of NYC costs about 800k. Rent for the same would be about 2000/month. Would it make more sense for me to rent for the entire five years, or for me to purchase a condo as soon as my savings become enough for a mortgage down payment? How many % down payment should I aim for?

I would be selling the property at the end of five years when I leave, and it would take me some time to save en

REEEEEEEEEE!

I need to ship a small server containing 12 hard drives. Should I simply ship the chassis as is, or remove and individually wrap the drives?

I'm shipping my server and need to secure my personal data in case of theft. Not all my data needs to be encrypted, just my backup share, which contains personal data from my desktop workstation.

What's the easiest way to passphrase encrypt a share or folder within a share?

I'm moving countries and have to ship my workstation by sea. What's the best way to secure my personal data in case the computer is stolen in transit? The computer is a tower chassis containing a hardware RAID array. The OS is Windows 10.

Wiping the computer and restoring from backup upon arrival is possible. However, the amount of data is truly massive and restoring from Google Drive would take a long time.

Someone gave me 5lb (2.5kg) of fresh garlic straight from the farm. What can I do with this huge amount of garlic?

My Intel RES2SV240 came in the mail today from a second hand online seller. These things are supposed to just work as soon as plugged in, correct?

I tried it with both an LSI 9211 and 9271; also tried it off the motherboard powered via a molex connector. I tried many combinations of port sockets. My test hard drive is not detected.

The drive is detected when plugged into my raid controller cards directly, so I know the rest of my system is fine. Can I assume the expander is broken, or is there something I'm not doing right?
