I assume the landlord uses a service to share rent with the credit report agencies. The landlord can shop around for a cheaper service, or use their cousin who charges $50/tenant but gives the landlord a kickback.

Monthly cost or $10, whichever is less, is better. It means the landlord is incentivized to keep costs down. Even if it costs the landlord $50, they can only charge the tenant $10. If it costs them $5, they can only charge the tenant $5. It’s a ceiling on the cost.

I’m out of the loop. Could someone please explain like I’m a 5 year old that knows just enough Linux to be dangerous?

If you need a passport super short notice (possibly same-day) you can go to one of a few passport offices and hope they can fit you in. I looked into it a few years ago when I lost my passport right before a big business trip. Logistically it wouldn’t have worked for me (by the time I even got to the Boston office on that Monday my flight would have left), but yeah. Found my passport a few days later, tucked into a notebook.

My 7th grade algebra teacher would be annoyed that you didn’t show your work, step by step.

I’m happy to be a bit suboptimal and get vaccinated when convenient. I got my flu shot a week before school came back in session and my COVID shot a week later, because that’s when the new booster came out where I am. I’d have been happy to get them at the same time because better something suboptimal than nothing because you forgot or got busy.

Yes, and updated boosters recently came out in the United States. Got my booster 2 weeks ago and it went smoothly.

Totally agree. QLL is not a replacement for local queer spaces and resources, just a supplement.

I’m just going to drop this link off right here: https://www.queerliberationlibrary.org/ 🌈

I was just as alert after the first 3 alerts as after the 8th. The additional alerts didn’t tell me anything new, they just gave me alarm fatigue.

And yes, it was bad. Roads were flooded. Buildings were flooded. People were evacuated. People died.

I finally went in and did this a couple weeks ago. We were under flash flood advisory and every time the end timestamp was updated, we got another “severe” alert. I didn’t need 8 very loud alerts going off over the course of a quiet evening at home.

Agreed, it’s pretty great. And while the computer sometimes misunderstands what you swipe, it will show you potential alternatives you can tap on. Like in this screenshot:

How many X are in XTX?

I wish they would. It might mean fewer fire alarms tripped by vapes. (I work in a college library and it’s not funny have to evacuate the building just because someone decided to vape in a study room.)

Walk someone else through editing a config file on the command-line over screenshare? Nano. Omg nano is your friend.

The problem with using nano for years is that I now try using nano shortcuts in other programs. Random new windows opening is confusing, until you figure out Ctrl+o isn’t save in that program. Then it’s just annoying because you still have your inappropriate muscle memory.

Yes, but dealing with frustrations is frustrating.

I’d also want to see if the adopter has a history of not staying out of jail for more than 6 months at a time. For example: my brother has been arrested at least 21 times over the last 15 years. I don’t think his home-life is stable enough to support a pet.

Now, if, say, his roommate wanted a dog, my brother’s bullshit shouldn’t keep the roommate from getting a pup.

What’s up, chicken butt?

It’s things like this that keep me using an ad blocker. I was researching when sunflowers develop their seeds, for crying out loud. Edit: this was on Opera. It’s… fine.
