cjs: I have today off and am gonna do a bunch of work on my car's diesel injectors. Well I'm going to do tests on them to see how much work they need, hopefully not much. Almost done cleaning the throttle linkages if things go well I might have everything back together and running by the end of the day :toot:

I had a coworker when I was starting out who bought a condo and renovated it with funds from his parents, then kept it to rent out. He's done this like 10 times lol. The only way to get into real estate investing is to have rich parents who will give you money.

I used to think about borrowing money from the parents to become a landlord but it seemed morally dubious so I didn't.

I've never thought about doing that because my parents don't have an extra house of money to give me and also I hate landlords

Had a dream where I posted something about work but it got mangled into me bitching about the 'the the the the' operator not being a thing and then there were several pages of me getting dunked on for not knowing about the 'the the the the' operator and how important it is for any programming task.

dioxazine posted:

My point in the meeting is that nothing should be learned, because the application is deprecated and its replacement is in beta, but we'll see how far I get with that. (My other points are going to be that a three-month delay between outage and lessons is absurd and that the original outage wasn't worth having anybody work on the weekend anyway.)

Edit: not getting sucked into yet another derail about the "the the the the" operator, goddamn

this would also be a nothing was learned situation

it is kind of bizarre that there was a three month delay for the retro on a prod outage, but i've also had that happen and also had a prod outage never talked about after it was jerry rigged without a true fix

It's not my place to comment on my in law's family structure.... But like the patriarch has major land holdings and nobody in the family knows how much is there, not even ball park estimates.

Idk I find this concerning. My older sister was able to wrest control of our meager Asian immigrant family holdings like 5-10 years ago. Shoot, when I was a tween I would be writing my mama's checks for her so we would know what we got and protect it.

But I guess fealty to elders is bigger in America because everybody is straight up afraid to even ask him, all while he brags about liquidating everything to buy fancy thousand dollar bottles of booze, sports cars, and leases to resorts. Generational wealth here is a lie, and the folks who got money in the 80s were told to burn it all rather than leave it to their children. I cannot expect even a single cent to go to his grandchildren. I swear, COINTEL PRO was far to effective on this family.

Gold digger problems~

yeah like as long as you have daily activity (walking running etc) interspersed with more intense cardio or weightlifting youll be good

i recommend stronglifts to everyone because its good and will get you in shape and looking good over time,

but maybe you wanna stick with body weight stuff (pull ups push ups planks squats dips) that you can do at home for now, i dont have a good routine for that
