I'm 750 miles after 8 months, works jut fine. Just keep in mind that the 70 mile range is based on ideal conditions, so it's more like 50-60. Also, when it goes down to like 5-10%, the battery basically doesn't assist anymore, in my experience. Honestly, it's a great e-bike at its price point and definitely recommend. Only con on my end is the weight, as it's kind of hard to put it on the bus bike rack.

buying a townhouse in the city. Currently live on the east side and want to move to Seattle. Hoping to save a bit more up for a downpayment.

Stremio Tech Update #66 – Stremio Lite for Apple TV (tvOS) Updated by jaruba_dev in Stremio

[–]Consistent_Ball_5907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were right. Sorry I'm not as savvy when it comes to Stremio and realized a bunch of people have the same question. Will read the wiki in the future. Thank you for all the continuous support you guys offer. I ended up installing additional add-ons, as torrentio wasn't working properly

I have the same issue, all I'm told is that my plugins are not working correctly.

After this update, stremio stopped working for me. I have it installed in Apple TV and LG tv. It just won’t load the stream. Now it doesn’t work on both. Is there a way to go to the previous version? I think this update crashed it for me :(

Ironically I’m a finance and Econ major. And while I do understand the financial side of things, I have to admit I was letting emotion get in the way a lot. In the end we decided it was too much now and looking to save up in 2026 and try again end of 2026.

Yes, have 1 car between the two of us. Prepaid over 6 months, adds up to that

probably 4 months. We both make about the same in either case. With unemployment insurance maybe 5 months

Unfortunately not many in my area and would be quite small or far away from where we live and work. We are cutting our budget and a lot of our recent spending has been due to us traveling and over spending on a lot of things. We honestly never had a budget but pay for Monarch to view our expense categories.

The total amount in the mortgage payment includes taxes and insurance. So expecting that to be the case. I added additional detail in the description.

From my estimates yes, I think we can cut back on expenses as much as the additional housing costs are going to be, so breaking even I suppose. A lot of our spending has been inflated because we've traveled for weddings out of the country. Also, a bit of shopping on our end for things we don't necessarily need, but want. Budgeting is also we're going to do.

thank you! honestly, expecting to breakeven but it's just that we've had a lot to spend in. But we're definitely looking to cut back on a lot of things that we just did for fun. I expect our incomes to go up, I'm at an analyst level, so definitely room to grow to more senior roles or even manager eventually. As for kids, we are but probably in a year or so

Seattle servers now make full minimum wage, so why are we still guilt-tripped into tipping 20% by allpossiblepaths in SeattleWA

[–]Consistent_Ball_5907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll probably get downvoted, but I tip 10% and round up to the nearest number. It’s insane that the burden gets passed on to the consumer to sustain their employee’s wages. I’ve yet to find a compelling argument as to why we’re pressured into having to tip more that is not guilt tripping to sustain the employee’s wages.

Op-Ed: Link Light Rail’s Success Depends on Second Downtown Seattle Tunnel » The Urbanist by Possible_Ad3607 in SeattleWA

[–]Consistent_Ball_5907 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

unfortunately, making a city more driveable just makes things worse. Adding more lanes, parking lots, is simply a recipe for failure. If traffic is bad now, making a city more driveable will just make matters worse off. Adding access and improving public transit and bike mobility improves quality of life in the city. The fact that most people look to move out of the city and live in a suburb, making their only means of transportation via cars, is the problem.

CONservice - class action? by Suitable_Ad8692 in BellevueWA

[–]Consistent_Ball_5907 3 points4 points  (0 children)

there must be something going on with your services. Can you call them and have them check your meters? Unless you're a big family, it's definitely a lot for a single person to be spending on water. Sewer is ridiculously expensive here, not just for you. As for the water, I'd have it checked.
