I’d make the guess that a lot of family members that would have been offended because they served or at least remember experiencing WW2 are no longer around Ref. It’s easier to disregard an opinion of someone as an “outsider”, even younger family members. But I’d guess that excluding grandpa/Grandma would be a lot harder when they tell you in vivid detail exactly why they fought what you’re voting to have.

Yes, paid time off requests or advanced request to use leave (doctor appointment, or other) is typical for any planned absenced in the US.

This isn’t new, Trump spoke about project 2025 at Heritage Foundation’s annual leadership conference on April 21, 2022. Since then he’s continued to backpedal away from it including during the debate.

Still vote.

It’s definitely tedious to track everything. I do like the import feature and it covers maybe 80% of day to day transactions but yeah it’s a pain to go and fix stuff. What your talking about with PayPal is what YNAB considers a transfer and payment and is usually part the 20% I have to fix. Bank to PayPal is a transfer transaction, PayPal to purchase is the payment. It can definitely get needlessly complicated and it sometimes automatically imports correctly, especially reoccurring payments or if the transfer is between two linked accounts.

So I’m not low low cost. Live on the east coast after moving from a high cost area of living so I could buy a home.

Median household income is ~$80,000 here or $40k per person

I spend ~$3300 a month for two people and pets living comfortably. I removed my mortgage and any car payments but that includes everything from auto insurance, home insurance, auto maintenance for two relatively new cars, groceries and utilities.

Home taxes are $1600/year and home insurance is $550 but average around here are closer to $800. Not included in the total above.

Home is ~1500 sqft

• ~$200 for electric, no gas so that’s mostly air conditioning/heat. Prices go up in summer, don’t get much snow here so Winter is mostly off.

• ~$50 Water includes sewer since we’re connected here. Other commenters can share about being on a well but if your buying off main sewer, expect to pay $$$ when it needs to be replaced. Set aside money as if you had a water payment and take care of it with maintenance.

• HOA includes trash at $70 a month.

• Internet, fiber is $50. Subscriptions are ~$45 on top. Phones are $60 for two lines. Most friends in more rural areas have cable/fiber but a few have satellite or just mobile phone Internet. About 2+ hours from nearest metropolitan city. Satellite is terrible and expensive so recommend checking https://broadbandmap.fcc.gov/ before you buy if that’s important to you.

• Car insurance $200 for two cars covered 300/100. Gas is $200. Auto maintenance is $165 and includes taxes, and all the other fun stuff related to owning cars. – If your young, a guy, have accident history insurance will be higher. Don’t skip if you can’t afford to replace your car and don’t get budget insurance to save. Gas is probably going to depend on your commute. And maintenance is going to depend on your car. Taxes are $300-600 a year each car including property taxes, DMV registration, etc.

• Groceries, $400-600. Eating out $200. This is probably the biggest variable expense.

• $400 misc spending for two. Includes random shopping for the household and any fun money.

• $300 for various gifts birthdays, Christmas, and extra spending to host Christmas or other events. Half of this is just building up for winter where we spend a decent chunk. Sometimes this is used to fly home for the holidays.

• $400 home maintenance budget. Saving for big fixes or general repairs. This will be much higher there first two years. For reference I’ve got a few pending maintenance repairs that are likely to cost ~$6,000 each expected in the next 5-8 years. (HVAC, water heater, roof, landscaping to deal with erosion and eventually some remodeling). Budget also includes collecting tools.

• Pets $200. Food, litter, toys, etc.

• $130 Health related expenses. Doesn’t include insurance which is $400/month out of the paycheck.

And I’m going to plug YNAB which is why I have these numbers, it costs $120/yr which is included. Highly recommend doing some kind of budgeting even if it’s on paper in a notebook once a month because all these costs can creep up. If you want free electronic use a spreadsheet.

Anyone that’s snorkeled or dived 30 years ago vs now has seen the stark difference. Places that were vibrant and full of color are lucky to have shades of brown with very few exceptions. Coral is dead, dying or unhealthy and it so upsetting to see it even from a few years ago. There’s this movement of last-chance tourism around this as reefs begin to fade away into bleached deserts.

I had the same question. Apparently it was an email newsletter sent via the campaign website, “take action” section.

Apparently you can save it to Google drive then download the Google drive program and make that folder available offline so it downloads it to the computer.

1. When you setup the Google Takeout export choose Save in a Google Drive folder

2. Install the Google Drive PC client (Drive for desktop)

3. It will create a new drive (i.e. G:) in your explorer. Right click on the takeout folder and select “Make available offline”. All files in that folder will be downloaded by the Google Drive Desktop in the background, and you will be able to copy to another location, as they will be local files.

Yes but the camera should be in a place that can’t be physically tampered with easily since someone could theoretically unplug the camera and plug into your home network and see all your computers or other devices as if they had stolen your WiFi password. A small risk but it’s better to hardwire it somewhere they would need a ladder to get to or get a camera system that connects to a central box inside the house.

I think that was Edison using AC. Apparently it was not part of the war of the currents. https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocuting_an_Elephant

If you haven’t played Enderal it’s worth a playthrough. It’s a free total conversion mod of Skyrim.

I’m using a commercial desktop with an i5 Sandy bridge. I maxed out to 32Gb of ram only because I’m running trueNAS, debian with containers, and home assistant. Most RAM goes to trueNAS and trueNAS doesn’t accurately report ram. For CPU, mostly just task limited but I don’t really think thats a proxmox issue. Obviously it’s not going to support an enterprise or even small business but it works for what I need of less than 4 users on my budget.

Proxmox doesn’t really ask for much but I probably would recommend docker for your arm devices.

Might have to put it behind a captcha or other type to severely limit automated access.

It’s not realistic to assume it won’t get scraped eventually. Such as someone paying people to bypass capatcha or web crawlers that don’t respect robots.txt. I also don’t know if Google and Microsoft bundle their AI data collection that doesn’t also remove your site from web search.
