anyone who threatens me will receive it in turn.
you’re gonna call ICE on me? better hope they get to me before I get to you, because there won’t be any hope for you and your family if they don’t.

- Comment on Funerary rites 1 week ago:
the lights dim and the beginning to thriller starts to play as your corpse is lowered slowly down from the ceiling. a group of people come out from the sides of the stage and all begin dancing to the music as your body hangs there lifeless above them. after the song, a casket is rolled under your corpse and the lines are cut unceremoniously, causing your grotesque form to collapse unnaturally inside before the lid is slammed shut and the dancers push your eternal resting place down the ramp and out the door to the burial site, the music following them.

you’re ignoring the $2,000,000 in training costs from sr devs and mistakes.
if you want to get serious about cost effectiveness, Jr devs should pay to work at a job.
keep in mind, you fuck up a steak at a cooking job you’re out the cost of the meal + time.
you fuck up a DB after a schema change you’re out thousands if not millions of dollars in outages, SLAs, and sales.
still want to use revenue as a compensation performance metric?

appreciate the sound advice. I’ve rewired plenty of houses that I’m comfortable with DIMS and know most of the NEC.
the problem is time and effort. I’m getting older and just don’t have the drive I used to have 20 years ago. the biggest problem is the house is still mostly original plaster lathe which is a huge pita for running new electrical across four floors. add to that the other litany of projects I have to do plus daily life/work. it’s a lot.
if I was 10 years younger I’d probably start one room at a time, but I’m old enough now that I look forward to taking my daily naps before bedtime.
I reserved myself to a modest retirement when I bought this house because I knew the risks going in.

Still, that’s a huge bill to eat each month.
don’t I know it 😭

lol. all houses are terrible investments, too volatile.

it’s kind of a mix of everything.
I grew up poor. like, “take a nap for dinner” poor. I was afforded great opportunities that allowed me to become comfortably wealthy, as in I can freely go to the store and just buy groceries without concern. This is important because I always promised myself that when I grew up I would live comfortably.
I keep my house between 68F-72F year round. I don’t open my windows because I have terrible allergies (that my kids have also inherited). at least half of my bill is just heating and cooling. the other half is likely a mix of the servers and the regular appliances.
I have family ranging from 30-60 years old. when I told them how much I spend on power their eyes popped out. they don’t run their hvacs as much as I do, and actually use their windows and attic fans. they also don’t have the allergic reactions I have either so 🤷.
in my old home, 1600sqft, our highest bill was around $300, and that was still high for the area. our neighbors were average between $100-$150. they were in their 70s though, so likely they didn’t use their hvac as much either, nor the technology I was running.

my house is over 120 years old. it still has knob and tube in half the house. I have even found gas lines for the old sconces, that were “conveniently” used as grounds for said knob and tube in some places. the house is a nightmare, electrically speaking. the only new-ish electrical are the HVAC systems, the 200amp panel, and the basement (where the rack lives).
for me to get proper solar installed, it would cost more than the house cost to buy. For me to find it in any way cost effective, I would need my $900 a month power bill to pay for the $200k loan on top of my mortgage.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
that’s an average btw. last months bill was $1100.
this month is already at $960 and we’re only halfway through the month.
this year has been lower than previous. I had new insulation installed last November.
highest bill I have ever seen was around $2200 which is over my monthly mortgage.
no crypto farm. though it would probably be higher if I was.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
per month.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
glad I’m not the only one that noticed that.
last time I checked I was using around 4600-5800kwh from May to August. the rest of the year its 3300-4200.
I live in a dual zoned 5200sqft home and my average power bill is around $900.
I’ve had solar sales try to talk me into solar panels but once they see my consumption they stop answering my calls lol. could be because I told them I’ll buy once I can get net zero.

us stopping won’t bring the dead child back and if we stopped now their death would be meaningless. we will actively support the deaths and suicides of numerous children for as long as it brings value to the shareholders we are beholden to.
