All I do to my grass is cut it when it gets shaggy and it's a combo of grass, weeds, clover but looks fine when cut. I don't water it, it comes back in the fall. My neighbours water theirs religiously and yet get afflicted by chafer beetle grubs which causes the local crows/raccoons to rip up the turf to find the giant juicy grubs underneath, loving the lawn completely until they re-seed or re-sod it. My not giving a gently caress strategy results in probably on average a better looking lawn since it doesn't have large patches always getting torn out of it

We always had to use the lovely concur travel site for flights but for everything else we had to expense. It was like worst of both worlds. Could put in your frequent flyer # at least but I flew so rarely it didn’t add up to much of anything. Cashed out all my points for costco gift cards since I never plan on flying anywhere for the next long while!

The RTs are the souped up durangos, I see those around here mostly driven by wannabe gangsters. They have an extremely loud engine noise and are very annoying. I once got passed by 2 in formation doing probably 80 in a 30 zone, so anyone buying one probably has a lot of expensive tickets in their future as well as the payments!

I am completely ignorant on the blockchain stuff and hope to keep it that way  I need a tshirt that says “please do not try to explain blockchain to me” On the BWM front, are there any opinions on renovating vs rebuilding a house? We have a rancher from the 60s on a good size lot for the area and would love to do a full rebuild. However, that costs an amazing amount these days so I was thinking about perhaps doing piecemeal professional renovations. House value wise I think the rebuild will probably result in the better home value, however with a mortgage taking a large bite out of that the equity will probably be similar for a reno. We are not planning on moving anytime so equity doesn’t really matter as much I think. Any thoughts on the reno/rebuild question? At this point both are just pie in the sky dreams but good to have some good arguments either way.

Motronic posted:I have put off rebuilding a barn for the foreseeable future because building materials are simply too expensive right now with everyone sitting at home going "since we didn't take that vacation why don't we do that remodel weve been talking about". This isn't likely to last. Yeah for sure, I’ve seen news bits on the price of wood products being up etc. But aside from pandemic times this was something I’ve been debating for ages whether to just go for it and rebuild or do a new kitchen here, new basement there. Would probably want to even look at adding another story to the house for more bedroom space as well so it could get pretty major.

Motronic posted:That's not something to piece by piece. It's almost always going to be cheaper to bulldoze the existing place and start over (blah blah millwork historic district, etc understood as exceptions) and it's OVERWHELMINGLY going to turn out better. Tying new into old, trying to normalize a floorplan with half of a house that isn't easy to change, etc just doesn't work well. Yeah, this is my gut feeling but then I look at the cost estimates and my eye starts to twitch. It is what it is! My neighborhood has a lot of these older houses torn down, rebuilt and then being sold for what my lot value estimate is plus (my) estimated cost of construction plus 10-20% so it is a fairly popular option with developers of course they have all sorts of leverage to finance with other buildings they are flipping as well.

Cyrano4747 posted:Developers also tend to get the work done by their own people, which means it’s at cost for them. You’re never going to get a reno done as cheap as long as you have to pay their profit margin. Yeah for sure, there is an amazing range of quality on display on these rebuilds. The new house next to me, yikes. The developer even asked me if he could run an extension cord to my garage instead of them getting a proper hookup to the city. Very sketchy.

I visited an aviary once where they had a toucan and you had to wear strapped on safety goggles in case it decided your eyeballs were grapes or something it wanted to try. Why the gently caress would you want one as a pet

Alien Arcana posted:Also they live for a really long time. It's like having a destructive toddler for several times longer than you would have to spend raising an actual child. Yeah no kidding, I don't think Toucans are as tame as parrots can be so you've gotta take care of this bird that may hate or be indifferent towards you for probably the rest of your life. And then your heirs will hate you! Respect to folks who can take good care of large birds though I definitely couldn't even though I think parrots and the like are cool. e: toucans have lifespans of ~10-20 years depending on breed apparently so not quite as long as a parrot but drat still quite the commitment. priznat fucked around with this message at 05:01 on Sep 30, 2020 |

I let my lawn do whatever and mow it when it looks too shabby but otherwise don’t bother watering etc and it mostly looks fine after the summer and it springs back to green. I would like to get more trees in it really because I like trees for the nice shade cooling effect it has on the area. Bugs me when someone removes perfectly healthy trees for whatever reasons.

Best option if not is a composter just alternate brown (leaves) and green (grass) and stir it up occasionally for freeeeeee compost! Bonus you can chuck kitchen scraps in there too

Tomfoolery posted:Out of curiosity, do these bitminers generally survive the 3 years required to break even at $0 electricity cost? Who is doing the mining to bring the payoff so low? It can't all be clueless idiots, can it? Is this stuff profitable in some low COL country? I have read that the biggies are state sponsored or with massive power subsidies, like China. There's almost no way to be competitive with these massive bitcoiner farms they have going. Doubly sucks because the subsidized power they use is probably mostly coming from coal fired plants so pretty much the dirtiest possible option from a GHG perspective.

Speaking of the wife making more, I worked at a military electronics contractor back in the 90s and one of the principal engineers had a wife who was a corporate lawyer who earned a LOT more than him (like 3-4x plus) and he was a senior guy already and making probably close to 200k. He joked he just made the “fun money” for them to take trips and buy toys with. Every single other guy (and it was all guys, because engineering) were like drat, that would be the poo poo.

Getting decent kitchen knives is actually GWM because taken care of and sharpened when needed you will rarely need to get a replacement. I’ve had my Henckels 5 stars for almost 20 years now and I love em. Getting knives that have handles that work well for you is probably the best advice I got when I was shopping for knives (also to wait for a sale as even fancy brands get good discounts frequently).
