I'm in Watertown on a busy road and was near an open window when it exploded. I thought a truck had slammed into my building and was baffled when I saw everything was fine.

The numbering of the challenges (eg T1001) is a little confusing to me too. My assumption is that the first number after the T is a tactic ID and the remaining digits are the challenge/issue ID. Maybe the challenge/issue ID is 3 digits because there's room (a plan?) to add many more examples?

I like the substance of this conceptual model as well (and may actually use some of it in my own personal productivity framework :-)), but don't see why it needs to be presented this way. It's neat, but I'd personally rather all the content be on one page, and maybe with a search feature for if/when the list of example challenges/issues grows.

This is what I'm currently doing sans tailscale. I'm running Ubooquity on a server in my homelab as my OPDS service to serve the ebooks hosted on a mounted NAS. I can download any of those books from my Kobo with a few presses on Koreader. It's pretty great. My Kobo Forma is probably one of my best and most used tech purchases. I've had it since 2019 and couldn't be happier with the device + setup. Getting it set up with tailscale so I can fetch ebooks when I'm away from home sounds like a pretty good upgrade.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. WinZip is a slow and bloated abomination, especially compared to 7-Zip. The right-click menu context entry for 7-Zip is very convenient and runs lightning fast. WinZip can't compete at all.

I'd love to know too — I've never been able to use this site

You're right, he wasn't trying to obtain information — which isn't required for a rhetorical question, as the excerpt you quoted says.

He was emphasizing his opinion by voicing it as a question. The text immediately after the excerpt you posted says this makes a valid rhetorical question:

> ... or as a means of displaying or emphasize the speaker's or author's opinion on a topic.
