Hmm, I dunno if that's a fair comparison. That house might be structurally sound and just look weird.

I haven't played in a few years so take this with a grain of salt.

My approach is to build things out incrementally. If your cashflow stays positive the entire time, you won't have money problems.

For design, try to find modular chunks you can repeat. A cellblock with bathroom and showers. A canteen. Make blueprints from them and twist them.

Do you have a foundation and walls around the entire space? I usually kept most stuff outside with a fence around the perimeter.

Don't disparage Miss Piggy like that! She has a few blindspots, but she's generally an honest, intelligent pig. And she would never be a mouthpiece for a fascist administration!

It's powerful, lightweight, and ubiquitous. If you do sysadmin work, remote into a random machine, and need to update a config file, it probably has vi installed already. It's also extensible enough to use as a full IDE.

Personally, I like it because of how fast it feels and because I can do everything while keeping my hands on the home row of the keyboard.

I'm about at that point. I had to set up a Windows VM last year to do some testing. It was more of a struggle to install than I expected.

I have one. I love it.

If you look at the mechanisms of poisons, they all mess up some process in the animal or plant.

For example, Glyphosate is a very effective herbicide. It prevents plants from producing some amino aids. It "starves" the plant.

I'm not surprised. I have no idea what their specific situation was, but I've known a couple people going through the green card process. And each was its own brand of long, painful, and expensive.

This.

It definitely is possible, but if you have to ask, you probably don't have the background to do it.

If you want to do it anyways, great! You'll be learning some new skills. I suggest taking it slow. Use a bunch of dummy boards to practice on. When you're ready to try for real, try it on a machine you don't care about first. Something cheap enough that you don't care if you mess it up.

 

I've used filthis.com for years to automatically grab PDFs for credit card bills, mortgage statements, bank statements, and utility bills. It's taken a lot of the headache out of archiving financial records.

I just heard FileThis is shutting in the next couple of months. Does anyone have service they use for automatically downloading this kind of stuff? I'm open to paid, free, hosted, and self-hosted projects.
