No, that is dangerous and could possibly kill you. You’ll need to go to local bike shop, minimum budget is maybe $1,200 or so? Less than that and you’ll be spending as much money broken down fixing your cheap china bike; I’d recommend this titanium mountain bike, you can get them used on Facebook sometimes for about $1,600 if you wait for someone trying to get rid of their starter bike

First of all, it’s customary to introduce yourself on this forum. Hi, I’m Toyota_Man1236. I’ve been posting here since 1998 and have been a mod since 2011. There are a couple of rules to follow, which I sent you the link to. Please follow them before posting.

That said - your girlfriend is a loving idiot, not surprising given that she’s a female asking about a car. What’s the matter, you couldn’t do your research? *le sigh*

I suggest you go through the backlog of the forum as similar questions have been asked MANY times and it’s a waste of my time to respond to this question specifically. We’re a vibrant forum and we remain that way by keeping discussion fresh, not focusing on questions that have been asked a million times.

I’m also banning you for 24 hours as a precautionary matter, there are some real red flags in your post and I prefer not to go down that road again. Long time users will remember the drama around “what’s a good MPG for a small car?” And the many, many, many people I had to ban.

I get wanting to save money, but a Corolla for daily driving is asking for trouble. What happens if it rains? Or if another driver is aggressive? Or if she needs to merge?

Honestly I'd suggest a used Land Rover Defender or maybe a full-size pickup. Yes, it's more upfront, but safety isn't the place to cut corners. Anything under $70k is basically a false economy.

Id be careful with leftover gear. If someones exiting beekeeping its because the mites won or the bees unionized. That equipment carries bad mojo.

Youll want two Langstroth hives minimum, one hive is just an extended learning experience in failure. Budgets realistically north of a grand once you factor boxes frames a smoker you immediately misplace and a suit thick enough to block regret.

Honeys a bonus. The real hobby is mite counts.

Week 1 - Monday Wednesday Friday. That is every other work day so half the week.
Week 2 - Tuesday Thursday. That is every other day (taking off Monday)

2.5 average days but you round that up to 3

you need to get a server rack and a few storage arrays. ram's expensive right now but you'll need at least 96GB for an ok plex server, its ok you can probably upgrade more later

you budgeted at least 10k for this and about $200 a month in power + electricity and service fees right?

Hello,

I'm Brad nice to meet you. I'm proud to be taking part of this DevOps in the Cloud bootcamp. I'll be honest, I don't know any programming at ALL expect for some basic PowerShell stuff. I see in the list of activities we do something called Terraform. Is there a GUI for that? I just keep seeing all this command line stuff. AWS is so much better. Their Skillbuilder shows you how to do everything in the web console. It's like SharePoint! (which I'm also pretty good at).
There's no programming or anything right? You just click around for all the stuff you need. right?

Brad. Buddy. You're reading the wrong Terraform.

This group is for terraforming. Capital T is a tool. Lowercase t is "we're altering a planet's atmosphere and biosphere on purpose," which is slightly more involved than SharePoint.

Is there a GUI? Sure. It's called geologic time. You click "raise CO2", wait 600 years, then the oceans decide to do a coup.

Anyway. Welcome. Please do not attempt your first deployment on a real planet.

You can have all the wild bees you could ever want for free! The local government hack told me that the bees displayed overt aggression in the leather patch test and that the hive should be destroyed but I wouldn’t let that happen. They just need loving care.

I somehow noticed a game I play has 2000 hours in it. That's way past the trigger that I need to do something productive with my free time.

So I'm wondering what starter bird is good for falconry?

I have a pretty good set of leather bracers that I got from an artisan leather shop at the renfest, I could just wear both on the same arm.

What branch of Accipitriformes should I look at first, while planning to hit the limit with elite birbs down the line?
