3 room apartment 72(?)m³ with my girlfriend and two dogs.

One bathroom.

I will have the money to buy my own house outside of town in a year or two.

I’ve spent the entire morning trying to install sql 2022 and it fails on a mysterious error message. The suggested fixes don’t work.

I’ll have the same problems on Linux occasionally but at least I did not pay to have those issues.

Cryptocurrencies can be useful as currencies. Not very useful as investment though.

Like with any new technology. Remember the blockchain hype a few years back? Give it a few years and we will have a handful of areas where it makes sense and the rest of the hype will die off.

Everyone sane probably realizes this. No one knows for sure exactly where it will succeed so a lot of money and time is being spent on a 10% chance for a huge payout in case they guessed right.

Spotify. I started paying because I got fed up with shuffling my mp3 files from one place to another.

80% of the time I’m not angry at them. This day and age that is a high score. Hey Spotify: if you want to improve your score fix your recommendations during Eurovision Song Contest. There is nothing in my playlists that suggests that I’ll even be remotely interested.

A lot of the time it’s obvious who did it.

The court proceedings is about how harsh they sentence the accused, not finding out if they did it.

If they confess and show regret they may get a less harsh sentence.

Last time I had to buy a new car was 2022.

Based on my driving habits and needs total cost per km driven was 3 times as high for electric.

Most of it being purchase price of the car. There were no used electric cars that has the winter time range so I had to compare a used gas vs new top of the line electric.

Some motorola g30-something.

Great value for money. I don’t care for anything extravagant when it comes to phones.

Drink a few cups a day for a year and then cut back to no caffeine.

If you get a headache you were addicted.

I don’t vote in the US (fortunately?). You mainly vote for a party. There are 8 of them in the Parliament and none near 50% so they negotiate and eventually 50% of the MPs agree on a government and a prime minister.

We have various websites and news outlets that are mostly neutral that make “election compasses” that lets you answer a bunch of questions regarding various topics and sorts parties based on how close they match yours.

I’ll take a closer look at the most aligned ones.

That I’d be a fool to strongly hold a belief without equally strong evidence.

I like your beer trick. I’ll see if I can make use of it myself.

I let auto carrot handle it and you decipher what I mean.

After school I had one week of cash left when I got my first job. I moved to a tiny town to work in the mining industry. Pay to cost of living is very good. I’ve always been careful with money and dislike shopping.

I save about 50% annual income. This is piled up in various investments. I can retire before 40.

I have about 1 year worth of expenses in cash I can access tomorrow. I try to keep at least 3 months but I’m squirreling away extra for known upcoming expenses.

Do you enjoy the media coverage about polls? Perhaps you should give back to the community.

Do you live in a swing state? Your preferred candidate may change their campaign strategy if they have reliable data on how they poll in your state (eg dial back campaigning where they are clearly ahead/behind in favor of where they are tied)

In the US I’d prefer not to say unless I’ve had some evidence I’d stay anonymous. Too infected debate.

I do that about every three

Blanket advice for supplements: health benefit is minimal. Cost is high.

Check with your doctor or dietician or some sort of expert with more credibility than random schmucks on the internet.

Yeah if I was just playing M+ I’d probably start a few weeks into the season when you can catalyse a 4 set and most of the rough edges have been smoothed out.

Long term girlfriend: Yes, if she does not fuck other guys. Maybe I’ll have issues with other things about the OF career, but I can’t forsee it.

Marrying is primarily a financial contract on top of all the squishy feelings. Other than the usual check of living below your means an OF CC would have to prove: Does she have a plan on how to support herself if her OF career does not pay the bills?
