That’s like the daily temp in South Florida right now… And we haven’t even hit August yet.

But every version of windows requires training because they keep changing crap for no reason.

As in why the split between settings and control panel. Why the nonstop start menu changes? And so forth

Try Mint instead. Its a popular distro that has an old school windows like interface…not an exact match but super close, enough that you’ll be zooming along in no time.

I have used it a lot and have almost no issues except for the very propriety-windows-only software.

Use a VPN in Albania. No signin, no ads, its great

No one is ever fired for buying IBM or Microsoft.

You get fired by saving the company million s with open source alternatives until the day there’s an issue and they can’t blame IBM or Microsoft.

Wrong people.

Do not copy paste resume details. Tailor each submission to match the job. There’s no other waycto beat the AI right now other than to regurgitate job details back at them.

The home depot near me has only self checkout … I guess it was such a problem that they now have a team of workers standing next to each station to ‘assist’ with checkout.

You’re lucky to have any land to speak of in most Florida city homes. Lucky for a few yards of grass between homes if lucky.

There is not enough full sun yard at least for my place.

You are lucky…in Florida , FPL actively fights residents installing solar and have insurance companies refusing to give windstorm insurance if panels are installed…which is not an option if you have a mortgage.

Fuck FPL

Where I grew up, streets were the only place to play.

Yell car and move to the side. Then resume your street football game.

Look at this place baby… So much room. I could totally see us living here the rest of our lives.

…GeT…OuuuUuut…

To bad we can’t stay baby!

I’ve written my local city council about my opposition to flock cameras in the city. You all should too.

If I had a ghost in the house, I wonder if he/she would help out with the rent?

Companies love contractors. No benefits to pay and doesn’t count as a full time hire.

The only correct answer is to choose life.

In your machine cert manager or application’s cert store, look at the trusted cert lists, remove any McD certs in the list.

All good advice here.

Find a good agent to represent you.

Get pre approved by your potential mortgage company.

Have a decent down payment in cash ready.

Never ever ever ever sign a deal with a per diem penalty. No matter what.

Make sure you understand what your taxes and insurance will be. Also check for FEMA flood maps. My home had a paved patio and 6 inches of it touched a XX flood zone, they wanted 15k a year for mandatory flood insurance. I took a sledge hammer to the concrete and poof, no more flood insurance requirement.

What the current resident pays in taxes is NOT what you will pay…research it.

Don’t buy a house within 1 block of a school …school traffic is terrible.

Get a full inspection…not just what’s required.

Good luck

Have you looked at just having a dhcp hot standby.

It offers better redundancy than just 1 host. Super easy to setup too.

Just adding this to the hatred for McD… Their WiFi requires you to install and trust a McDonalds WiFi cert. Man in the middle https decoding. Anyone who has done this has given McD their creds to various sites.

I refuse to use the kiosks… Hate those thing
