When you die, whoever has to pick up your social media pieces and bank stuff (and cash in those reward points!) will GREATLY appreciate that password book kept beside the computer. Solid move.
Write your phone pass code in there too.

Last thing I want is someone who likes/loves me to get into my phone or computer and realize they were wrong this whole timeQuote:

Having to change your password every 6 months is pretty annoying. I think that practice has been proven to be less secure.

Another advantage of the pw manager - just go to the password generator and hit the refresh until you get a password that meets the requirements.Quote:

After going through the process of being an Executer I would say it's as important as a will or power of attorney.
It should also be in one physical location. When we went through this with my grandfather, the safe deposit box at the bank was mostly old irrelevant stuff, and things like "where's the title for this car?" ended up being "found it in a shoe box at the back of the upstairs closet."

Even the duplexes are just adorable. It’s inspiring how people share walls and divide roofs right down the middle. So egalitarian.
Yes, we love the character of this neighborhood, which is why we bought a house, tore it down, and built a mansion resembling a La Quinta Inn.
It wasn’t an easy decision, but once Brad talked to the architect, it just made sense to go with five stories, nine bedrooms, eleven bathrooms, and a six-car garage with a glass door that reflects the setting sun like the Eye of Sauron.
Did I mention how we love the big porches here? They’re such cute little areas for sitting and talking to your neighbors. It’s too bad they aren’t considered “livable space” and do not add to a home’s value.
That’s why our new home has a porch the width of the front door and the depth of a cardboard box. Depending on your Amazon driver’s creativity, you can stack the boxes six to eight high.
We also love all the yards around here. It feels like you can really relax and breathe—a great place to feel the grass between your toes.
It’s such a shame yards don’t count toward a home’s value either. This is why we left two sixteen-inch-wide strips of zoning-mandated grass on either side of the house and dug up the front yard—sorry, azaleas!—for the vaulted great room with a floor-to-ceiling wine rack.
Speaking of greenery, we just fell in love with the trees in this neighborhood. They provide so much shade. But they also take up a lot of space. And sometimes, in the fall, they make such a mess. And Brad has allergies.
So we cut down the oak trees older than your great-grandparents to make way for the indoor trampoline park.
Let me add that we believe it’s important to give back to the community. That’s why we built the world’s first subterranean Buffalo Wild Wings franchise in the basement. Everybody is invited to the restaurant tonight. Here’s a coupon for 10 percent off your first visit.
Also, if you’ve ever considered selling your home, tonight would be a good time to discuss it over a plate of Cheddar Cheese Curds. Brad just loves the Bulleit Bourbon Sauce.
We love this neighborhood, and we pledge to do our part to ensure that it never changes unless the benefits to us are undeniable. We’d be fools not to take advantage of this housing market.
Golf clap.
My cc info and other shit was compromised. Thanks Ticketmaster for the free credit reporting for a year. Bastards.
Some shit needs to go back to paper.
The usual fucking airline shit. I won’t say I’ll never fly Delta again because I’ve been screwed by every airline. This trip has been hell. Maintenance delay made us miss our connection, even with a 2 1/2 hour layover. Rerouted through SLC and now our final flight is delayed due to 1 missing flight attendant. You’d think with SLC being a major delta hub it’d be easy to find one. Nope, they are flying one in for from Minneapolis, where we just came from. We get to sit for 4 hours and wait for them to arrive. Now the rental car will be closed when we arrive. Looks like sleeping in the floor until 6am when they open.
And nothing from them for the problems they caused.
Fucked w/o even a kiss.
Can relate, although not to that level.Quote:

The rest of the time it came out with the regular luggage so we got to hoof it though the airport with all our carry-ons and the baby in arms. Including the insane wait in TSA and immigration lines in seemingly non air-conditioned areas. When we finally got home to SLC at 11:30pm (24 hours after waking up with only 1 hour of sleep for the little one) the stroller never appeared. I managed to harpoon a Delta luggage person who told me it was at the gate, in direct contradiction to what the gate agent told me. I had to get a gate pass from her, go back through TSA, hike the mile of airport hallway to the gate, then hike back with the stroller.
Bonus mention to the luggage issue on the GVA-JFK flight. Only 2 of our 3 checked bags came out, the missing one containing 3 bottles of wine and 3 kilos of cheese that would not have fared well if they had stayed out of the fridge for much longer (read: turn into a serious biohazard). One dude with a laptop was hanging out in a corner of the hall, apparently in charge of all 9 carousels disgorging the luggage of every incoming international flight. In the span of an hour he went from assuring me the bag was coming right out to telling me to make my connection and file a claim on arrival. Apparently the bag (along with a few others) was unloaded with the rest but for some reason was sent on a little excursion all over the airport and nobody had any clue when it would resurface. We had another hour before risking not making our connection so decided to wait. I sat in front of the carousel twiddling my thumb, watching it occasionally turn on and one of the other passengers in my situation luck out. After an hour I decided to call it, retrieved wife and baby, and started walking away. Literally 10' before exiting the luggage are my phone vibrated with a notification that the bag had been scanned. It came out a minute later, just in time for us to sweat our way through a 1.5 hour TSA lane and make it to the gate for boarding.
Wine and cheese arrived in good condition. The humans not so much. I'd rather take a bus in S America than travel by plane these days...
Man, that always is teh suckage. Reminds me of this South Park classic. The running joke in the episode was "Still beats what you have to go through at the airport" or something to that effect.Quote:

Shitty neighbors. They wait till the evening to start ripping boards, or run the fuel out of their boat, or mow their .25 acre lot for an hour. Fucking white trash losers.
musk promises the one way flights to Mars will be musk more reliable.

They did get us a new plane quickly and we finally escaped SLC.
We’ll let things settle, enjoy what’s left of the trip and fire up ChatGPT for some emails/letters later. The gate agent promised they would give us a bunch of miles but then again, every other thing he said turned out to be a lie.
It's Sunday evening. That's when most blue-collar workers end their short weekend and try to get a few chores done before going to work tomorrow. You could always move back to the land of entitlement; it's only gotten worse. I'll take mowing on a Sunday evening over leaf blowers and lawn crews at 6am any day of the week. Choose your battles.Quote:

Everyone else is chill. Being loud when everyone else is winding down for the day/week is just one of the shitty things they do.
Yikes, what times are we talking? If its dark out, its quiet hours but other that that maybe courtesy get you another hour? So 7am to 9pm is probably fair game.
I don't doubt that your Whisky Tango neighbors generally sucks but don't go down the rabbit hole of because of this you give them no rope. I'm sure their is an HOA somewhere looking for a board member. Or move out to the sticks.
Eh, im an early riser, but i still think 8am is the earliest you should start loud work on a weekend, and 9am would be more neighborly. And i also think loud work should stop 1 hour before sunset on the weekends (certain exceptions apply). Ensuring you are on good terms with neighbors is invaluable, and something to prioritize.Quote:

Way back in my young and dumb days, I was rehabbing a trailer rental in a mobile home park. I was getting a little obsessive w getting it done and had a power saw going inside at 1am. They neighbors kindly asked me to turn that fucking thing off. I was completely oblivious to how much noise I was making [emoji23]
Now that I'm a responsible old fart, I always use ear plugs so I have no idea how much noise I'm making. I've always thought that about 10:00 a.m. to sundown is okay on weekends.Quote:

Heh, Why Men Are ‘Rawdogging’ Flights: no entertainment, no headphones, just watching the flight map for 8+ hours (bonus points if you don't pee or eat).
“I've got DMs on Instagram like, ‘Bro, you need to teach us how to bareback flights,’” says a pioneer of the swashbuckling trend.
The concept—referred to in a vivid and perhaps unfortunate parlance as “rawdogging,” “flying raw,” and “bareback”—resonated with many in the comments on West's TikTok page, @WestWasHere. “Yup, from London to Miami this week…pure bareback no food or water,” one wrote. “I swear barebacking flights make it go quicker,” another added.
A true rawdogger takes no indulgences.

People saving camp sites for many days in a row with a cheap tent and not actually camping. Range Rover using a campsite as a parking spot preventing actual campers. Shit like that annoys me.
The cheap tent is easy to deal with. Just move it somewhere else. It's easy to tell when somebody is gear squatting.
Run it over, burn it, throw it in the creek!
Closing to town popular camping has pretty much been ruined around here. Everyone has some type of RV so all the parking spots are their camps now. If its got 5g, the laptop bros are working remote. Ballers have Starlink. The underhoused are full time in the woods.
Luckily there are plenty of options, you just won't be able to go out for breakfast.
Weird, I've been rawdogging flights for years, never knew it was a thing.Quote:

Meanwhile, the tray the boxed water sits on is plastic, the seats are all plastic, the overhead luggage compartments are plastic, the walls are plastic, the lavatory is plastic, probably eighty percent of the damn plane is plastic. Plastic is quite likely the most beneficial invention of the 20th century, it's so light and so strong that we are able to build lighter planes and hence save untold millions of gallons of jet fuel every year. But there I sit on said plastic plane, drinking water out of a box that tastes like wet paper, and it was truly fucking gross. Back to rawdogging for me. :)
Yeah, but not day one, when you are actually looking for the spot. I would hate to fuck up an actual camper who lives and maybe even works locally. But chances are it is just some douchbag saving a site for the 4th.Quote:

There are felons with warrants living up on the Water Board Road.
But as a community we only kinda sorta care because when something seems difficult the twig pigs and doo gooders take on easier objectives where they have more flex.
The close in Forest is a mess.
