Frankly I don't recall. They dropped on us they were self insuring with like two weeks of open enrollment left, I made a snap choice and bought my plan on the "marketplace".

Ah. Well as far as I was told two months back, they didn't plan on dropping the E3/E5*300 seat requirements, only the 300 seat of copilot requirements. But I haven't kept on top of it, all my companies clients are too small fish to drop 100-200k a year on unproven tech

From what I'm told, Ms was basically running things at a loss when they first opened the doors.

Ok well, it's my life and it works for me, I have health issues that make living to a high age an unlikely proposition, and the chances I'd lose everything to medical costs anyways extremely likely.

$30? Idk how it is in the consumer space, but in the Enterprise world the initial opening for copilot required 300 seats of E3 or better, and then a purchase of 300 seats of copilot 365 at $30 each. They were supposed to drop the 300 copilot 365 seat req q1 but I'm not sure if they did.

3030012=108,000 per year for copilot. E3 is 36 a month, 30012=129,600.

Big money.

You'd have to eat a lot of paracetamol to kill yourself in one go, and it's a slow, horrible death of liver failure. I'm lazy N not looking up numbers at the moment, afaik the you're going to die zone is something like 8-10 grams, max FDA safe dose is 3.5 or 4. You shouldn't take more than 800-1200mg at adult male size though, it's extremely hard on the liver at high doses.

paracetamol is a horrible, horrible way to go. You'll spend days in a hospital bed, needing but intelligible for a transplant.

I make between 60-100k a year, (sorry, I know that's a wide range, but I rather not be specific) and I can't afford insurance worth having. The only plans without a 10k out of my pocket before they cover anything at all started at $450/ month. I ended up with a plan that covers nothing until I spend like 5 grand out of pocket. Just shy of $300/mo.

But, I live in a red state, so maybe you're not wrong. Private Insurance for healthcare is still an assinine idea in general high.

Your friend just hasn't gotten bitten yet. You could have a million in the bank, cash, get sick and burn it up in no time. I blow basically every dollar I make because I think you'd have to be an idiot to grind and save up, unless you're really wealthy, it can all go poof in an instant thru no fault of your own.

I ain't suffering for the chance I might get to stop working now. I'll enjoy my scraps now, and when it gets too be too much, I'll paint the ceiling red.

Can't pull an esim, and even if you could the modem is integrated with the rest of the electronics

And the dev might have to pay a lawyer to defend himself in court while the company tries to prove their point.

Sure, he might get it back. Maybe. But he also would likely end up in debt defending himself, even if there's no real merit to the case.
