I thought they removed that recently… Could be wrong, though.
I can’t believe this name wasn’t already taken.

He’s term limited as governor. Question is what he does next.
Keep it up kids. 🤘
I don’t think we disagree here.
Rates are higher than the current market can bear, a result of the artificially extended period of historically low rates. The pandemic can only be blamed for some of this. The prior administration juicing the economy against sound economical principals telling us rates should have continued the rise that started around 2016/2017 contributed at least as much and hamstrung our tools to respond.
Housing stock shortages have long list of causes, as you line out. With so many things contributing to the problem it’s hard to cope with, both at a policy level and for us regular folk. An average person needs an explanation that’s easy and memorable, and thereby actionable in terms of throwing their support behind. That’s not easy when there’s not enough fingers to point, solutions to each aren’t clear, and there’s only so much political bandwidth that can be put towards making change.
It’s going to be slow, and not everything will work, but I’m glad there is finally attention on it and it looks like the people who can do things are doing them instead of just talking.
You’d have to go back to around 2000 to find rates on a 30 year fixed comparable to today’s. https://www.freddiemac.com/pmms
Historically we’re still in a period of pretty good rates. However, the reality is who cares about what things were like more than 25 years ago. The new normal is 6ish percent, and we’re over that right now. I don’t think we’re ever going to see rates below 5% again, not counting for some extraneous circumstance nobody can predict. But at this point any relief is going to be meaningful to a lot of people.
On the other hand, home prices are not coming down, and they probably will not come down even if there’s plenty of overinflated valuations out there.
Therefore the only thing to give on affordability is increased supply to keep home values from continuing to grow in a pace that outruns incomes, and lower rates so more people can afford what’s out there today.
I never removed “_nomap” from my SSID. I doubt they even care about it anymore.
Last time around part of Trump’s strategy was to dominate the news cycle with a never ending torrent of outlandish statements and behavior. Free advertising. And of course he’s going to do it again because his fundraising is much less than Biden’s at this point. And he probably can’t help himself as that’s all he knows how to do and it works on his base.
One could argue that it’s a wise idea to co-opt that free campaign exposure by joining in instead of fighting back or fact checking or correcting the record like they had in the past.
A good tailor can do amazing things, but there are limits.
When it comes to tailoring, putting aside the quality of the suit (fused/glued canvas or not, among other things), the key thing you want as close to right from the start is the shoulders. Sleeve and jacket lengths are simple, neck and chest less so, but if the shoulder width is all wrong it’s a major undertaking to alter if it can even be done.
Get WinAero Tweaker. It’s a tool that applies dozens of registry and group policy settings to kill stuff like this. I ran it once ages ago and never have had to deal with stuff like your screenshot.
The customer is the shareholder. The consumer is a means to an end. Same as it ever was.
Ain’t nobody going to talk about that guy in the thumbnail eating a CD while wearing that hat? Stock photos are weird.
It finally just came up. Posting here from it now.
The admin last posted almost 2 weeks ago saying he was having a minor surgical procedure and hadn’t publicly posted since. Hopefully he’s okay and fixed this himself, but he’s still silent at the moment.
I always want my gallery app to rotate. I never want my email app to rotate. Auto-auto-rotate remembers the last rotation setting for every app I use and will turn it on or off for me. After a day of normal use I literally haven’t had to touch the system rotate setting once. It’s fully automatic and took zero effort. Having to change the setting manually is more of a hassle than this.
Auto-auto-rotate. Remember your rotation setting by app. Why that isn’t built in I don’t know.
For all the reasons others have already stated, what you want is a Kill A Watt instead of a multimeter or another thing to buy. Plug this thing into the wall and then plug your appliances etc into the meter and leave it for a week. I will record total power draw over the duration so you can see exactly how much power is being used under normal operating conditions. With a little bit of math you can compare kilowatt hours consumed with your power company costs and figure out how much money it cost to use TV’s etc per hour.
From experience: sodium percarbonate. This is the active ingredient in oxy-clean powders and can be purchased online. In it’s pure form it’s commonly used as a sterilizing cleaner for brewing and bottling equipment. I’ve been using it in laundry for 10 years.
Got a new C920 on Windows like six months ago. Plug and play, zero software or config on two computers. Is there a specific model you’re thinking of?
Adobe and Microsoft PDF printers retain some information. If you run it through ghostscript you’ll get only the PostScript output. You can use a free utility like cutepdf to make it easy. Just install the latest gs release after installing cutepdf instead of the download they provide.
This is the case where DC police filed suit, not the Jack Smith case everyone is watching where SCOTUS refused to expedite when asked to circumvent the appeals courts.
Every time with this guy. Venue shopping needs to stop. Everyone with an agenda is trying to file in his district for one reason, and it’s not fair and balanced justice.
