In 2009, I was incredibly fortunate to be in a position to buy a home. By 2018, its increased value allowed me to purchase a second, larger home, move my family into it, and rent out our first one. Later, I refinanced both properties, reducing the interest rates by about 2% each.

All our children are on the autism spectrum. If we can keep these two homes, we plan to eventually sell them and place the proceeds in a special trust to support our children after we’re gone. Or, they might live in one or both of them—time will tell. Either way, knowing they have this safety net gives us peace of mind.

I hope others are as fortunate as we’ve been, with even more and better opportunities to secure a home and build a stable future for themselves.

 

I recently played through universal Paperclips. It was okay, looking for more to try.

Bots that can be summoned (e.g. !savevideo, or whatever the command format would be) could be useful. Otherwise, bots can sod off.

I care. I want him to suffer the consequences for the numerous crimes and atrocities he's committed.

Open Collective accepts PayPal. AFAIK PayPal takes a larger cut of the transaction than Apple Pay does.

I know that Beehaw != Open Collective, so I'm not asking for any changes there. Just curious if there are any other plans to accept donations through other methods.

If you took away the government subsidies for meat production the price disparity would vanish.

I hope it isn't true. I'm not a fan of her music, but I love the positivity she puts out in her performances and her persona, as well as her support of drag culture. I'll wait to see what comes of these accusations and others.

It would be nice if I could donate via Apple Pay. Any plans for supporting that? Open Collective doesn't appear to support it.

Anyone got a non-paywalled version of the article?

It's Linux like macOS is BSD.

It's actually an important mechanic. How you play changes the game's ending and you get a chance to try again. It's meant to be played several times different ways, so you didn't do anything wrong. :)

Thanks for the clarification. Makes sense!

Then you can't pick from any manufacturer. You have to get a phone that can only run android and can be rooted and that LineageOS updates come out for. That vastly narrows down your choices.
