Two questions, do they make any money from transaction fees? On IOS what do you recommend to replace it. I’ve seen Zeus and Phoenix to be decent?
I use Robinhood, it’s legitimately reported and taxed, but that is half of the use of BTC as a mainstream currency IMO.
I think moist baby wipes can be a lifesaver. Don’t spare the wipes!
So alone in RL. The upside is that rather than trying to manufacture friends from a small circle of acquaintances, I now can find true commonalities and friends from a global community, with the constraints of language barriers. I hope one day translation is so easy, accurate, and seamless that communication will be possible between all people regardless of native tongue.
Absolutely. After thought, we don’t shoot to kill, we shoot to stop a life threatening behavior. It’s an important distinction in court, but if you’re good with a gun, and have the right gun, death of the assailant will likely be the outcome.
Definitely peat, it’s Islay, peat, salt, smoke, ocean, and just a hint of sweet without cloying. They’re all good!
Big fan, I like a decent cigar and Côte d’Or dark chocolate with mine. Have you tried Ardbeg?
You sell these for sats? If so, where?
What did you use to make the bootable drive? There are options with the dd if= method.
Linux in general is definitely the wild west of computing, updates often break dependencies, but some stability can be achieve with effort. Belaying updates to a schedule can help with this as well as using a Long Term Support (LTS) kernel.
That had to have been awesome. I so wish I had seen them. RIP Eddie!
Right. I think a GFCI outlet on anything within reach of the sink (direct ground) is probably a good idea in the kitchen, but design can prevent the most egregious risks. Fully agree with the outlet placement of GFCI too. Apparently you know a bit about the important things! 😊 I usually use Siemens breakers and boxes, but I think they’re fairly similar to SquareD. Growing up we had an old fridge and if you touched it and the sink at the same time it would make your joints rattle a bit. 😬 Much has changed since those days though. I doubt most fridges even have conductive handles or body panels anymore.
Chickens can be surprisingly personable. I know each one we have. For a while I had a set of four that closely resembled all the members of Old School Van Halen. Roth was a black dainty bird with a white feather top hat, Eddie was a heavier feather footed, Anthony was feather footed with opposite colors, and Alex was a small crested lanky hen. Probably you had to see them to picture it, but it was so perfect and they hung out together! It literally made me laugh out loud every day at feeding time.
Yep. GFCI was fine, PITA at times, but a lifesaver particularly in the bathroom and kitchen, but AFCI in the breaker box trips all the time for no apparent reason in my experience. Enough to be a royal PITA and frankly dysfunctional in most use cases.
We free range our chickens and losses are frequent and always difficult. My hope is that eventually natural selection will produce a flock with the savvy to survive. So far the theory isn’t working perfectly, but attrition is sloping off after a couple years and 100 or so lost chickens.
Guidelines for safety right? 💯😏
Cool. I’ve learned some things the hard way, but where code is concerned it’s not my bag. I unhooked the grid from my breaker box, routed it through two 100A fuses and put one leg into the Victron for grid power, the other used as the phased leg for the 240V appliances as my inverter doesn’t have 240V.
The advice I would give is to use Balena etcher or terminal dd to create a bootable Linux OS on a USB stick. Shut down your computer and hold down the option key while powering up. Two boot options will show up, MacOS and the Linux boot. Booting to Linux directly will eliminate the VM problems that are possible. Don’t mess with your boot drive at all and everything should be fine for MacOS. A reboot will automatically result in MacOS booting up. Probably Mint is an easy place to start, Fedora is more streamlined, Manjaro is a decent introduction to the Arch Linux universe, I use Arch and though it isn’t always the easiest system to use, I like the rolling update architecture of the platform. Ubuntu and Debian seem more like Windows to me, and I have never preferred Windows for anything. Please don’t hesitate to ask even the most fundamental questions. I made a lot of mistakes and some people in the forums just assume you know things that people new to the space don’t know. I hope it goes well!
