How did you rascals weigh size/quality of home vs location of home? My budget is limited and I live in an expensive place of the country. There are some nice condos, with pleasant views, and over 1000 sf, but located in a meh neighborhood. Like nothing is within a 20 minute walk. However, the condos are situated in a convenient central-ish part of the city if you are willing to drive. There are also people suffering from homelessness around, which doesn’t bother me personally but could hamper resale. Actual crime reporting statistics show that it’s a safe neighborhood. Otherwise to find something more central I’d probably have to drop to like 650 sf or lower.

Here's more on the Disney thing. Apparently what the bill actually does is terminate the special districts on June 1, 2023 if the legislature takes no further action. This tells me that once they realize how much money is going to need to be transferred to local authorities (the article goes into that a little bit), the legislature can quietly back out of it after the election and leave everything the way it is now.

Yeah I agree. But Roe is basically dead already and they’re going to deliver a fresh load of teenaged trans corpses and gay and lesbian adult suicides after their marriages are annulled. Right beside all the low-income home abortion deaths. LeeMajors fucked around with this message at 22:33 on Apr 20, 2022 |

Of course. Makes them look tough on the giant woke corporation for midterms while actually meaning nothing, and they can continue their absolutely vile attacks on trans kids. Culture war bullshit. gently caress them. The only hope for any consequences would be Disney calling them on their bluff and pulling out of Florida, but that doesn't help anyone any time soon even if that long shot happened

Eh it's fine, I'd been meaning to stop by her house and check in since it's been a while. My aunts and dad are over to help out a bunch but I also have some stuff I need to help her out with too. Also it gives me an excuse to get a fancy coffee from Coffeholic and some bread from the Columbia City Bakery and pour a 40 out for Angies on behalf of my dad and my teen memories of going there to tell him to go home.

I'm sure there's plenty of moneyed interests trying to do exactly that, but my impression is that they haven't really succeeded, at least not yet.

Ornery and Hornery posted:How did you rascals weigh size/quality of home vs location of home? Is there any difference in commute to work or somewhere else you would go frequently? I would pay more or get a smaller place if it meant cutting commuting time, there are only so many hours in a day. If you are interested in resale value, a lot of people really overvalue school ratings, though it could be a chicken and egg type thing since that tends to also correlate with income. I am not sure how sustainable pricing is depending on where you are, I know we regret not maxing out our budget when we bought 8 years ago since we would really like an extra room and now it will cost substantially more to either remodel/buy now. Then again, without a time machine I am not sure how useful that is with prices what they are today. It is not like they can get any higher, right... (which I also said 8 years ago and my wife still holds over my head about me being wrong). Pain of Mind fucked around with this message at 22:59 on Apr 20, 2022 |

Oh yeah I know it isn’t a Real Clinical Thing, but the phenomenon of tech bros assuming they are geniuses at everything because they logic and/or code well is a thing and dunning-Kruger is useful shorthand for it.

I have an appointment next month to get a new license, only Florida is requiring me to bring four loving documents (Basically birth certificate, SS card, and two things proving my address). My old ID was originally issued in 2007, updated once when I moved in 2009, and they just sent me a new one with a horizontal layout when I turned 21 two years later, and apparently isn’t compliant with the ‘REAL ID’ thing or whatever the gently caress it’s called. I just assume it’s because the usual Florida stupidity. gently caress DeSantis.

The thing that gets me about Real ID is that if you don’t get one, you need to bring your passport, but to get a Real ID, you need a passport plus 2 or 3 more documents. Why isn’t the passport good enough?

Why isn’t the passport good enough? I think it's because a passport could be stolen, and altered with a different photo, because DMV isn't tied into the same computer system as the people who man the booths at customs & immigration so they can't authenticate your passport the same way. Basically devolving national ID responsibilities to the 50 states and their 50 totally separate and incompatible ID systems was a colossal project that still isn't done and never will be.
