I hate Christmas music from years working in retail but this one really jams!

No thanks! I’ll take housing that only costs me property taxes. Tomorrow isn’t guaranteed so I’d take that certainty today.
I totally agree and understand the use case. That plays into that more in depth type of self hosting most here do. All I have is storage via Synology, and Pi-hole, smart home controls and a media server in separate containers.
My use case is strictly QoL improvements that my wife would either just live without or switch to a more conventional, easy to use setup for her.

This would pay off our mortgage and we could dump that monthly payment into saving for retirement.
However, if the question was how much do we need then it would be $0. We are far more fortunate than many.
If there was a line of all the people in this comment section waiting to get whatever amount they need I’d be one of those continuously moving to the back to let others go first.
I hope you all find improved quality of life, even if it’s not through some financial windfall!
I don’t self host to the extent many here seem too but I have had the same thought and joked with my wife about it.
Ultimately everything I’ve setup I’ve done in part because it’s my hobby and it interests me. When I’m gone my family will revert to whatever they’d normally be doing without me, because they don’t have interest in it like I do.
I’m always reminded of finding and playing the midi files from the game music on my 486 as background music.

For sure! The only reason I upgraded is because the OptiPlex costs a lot to run in terms of electricity.
For stuff I pretty much run 24/7 I really wanted better power efficiency.
I’m on board with this. I did something similar putting a Synology 920+ and an Asus NUC style machine running Ubuntu in place of my old OptiPlex and WD MyCloud setup.
I’m now the primary content provider for a bunch of my family!
I’ve been struggling with gout in my knee and ankle off and on. When it gets bad I’m almost immobile and I broke down and finally bought a cane to help me hobble around when it’s at its worst.
Mine also came from Ukraine and like you I wanted something with personality. I got an oak, ball top style stained cherry and I love it!
I don’t think stainless steal seasons. Maybe you’re thinking of carbon steel?
Stainless is great to cook with but you have to wait for the pans to come to temp before adding food
The hexbear and lemmygrad users/posts I run across in All mostly remind me of those street corner preachers. I don’t care one way or another about their ideologies but it’s tiring that they always feel the need to shout it in your face.
I don’t hate them but find them to be obnoxious and mostly cult-like.
Maybe they’re just bad at math and don’t understand how averages work.
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

No, I’ll have to take a trip to the store for a can of expensive goose grease.
I can get you exotic meats. Hippo steaks, giraffe burgers…
It’ll all be goat.
We bought in August of 2020 and paid a little less than the previous homeowner paid in 2013. Locked in at 2.75% interest on the mortgage and pay today about $500 more than we did for our apartment rent right before we bought.
The house we bought has two stories but would allow for single floor living as we age. We might move to something smaller when that time comes though.
All in all we feel pretty great and absolutely love our house! It’s on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River and we call it our treehouse.
My dad calls it checking their pee-mail.
For sure! Though at the end of my drinking it was Ten High Kentucky as that’s all I could afford with the amount I was drinking.
