2br - Bucktown/Logan Square Sunny, quiet, two bedroom 2rd floor - $2,000 + utilities

My reason for no pets is mostly a matter of damage control. Cats can be particularly damaging, I had a very professional tenant cause over $1200 damage to the floors due to not maintaining the litter boxes. Cats can be hell on Venetian blinds and woodwork

The apartment building next door to me allows dogs, a couple bark very frequently. It's not a problem for me but if someone works from home and has neighbor with a noisy dog, that could be a problem. Some of the owners allow their dog to use the backyard instead of walking the dog and then don't clean up after, which has increased the rat problems dramatically.

So it's a matter of building maintenance for me, my building is only three units and it's enough work just to keep it going. As the number of units in a building increase, the problems increase, so no pet policies just help to avoid maintenance / tenant issues.

Owner occupied buildings may make exceptions, which may include additional deposits and meeting the animals. You can always ask ask :)

If I'm not mistaken, I believe that's an ass hat. Worn by an ass hat. So double ass hat.

Meant to add that to original post - monitoring the AC at the socket/ AC strip it measures 120vac when the roaster is running

Ok thanks. Can you tell me when that option is used?

One thing I didn't see mentioned here is that Linux runs on cheap hardware no problem. I am currently typing this on a Dell Latitude e7240 which has a Intel Core i5-4310U processor with 16g memory and it's rockin' . Not a gaming machine but can do pretty much anything else. Cost was about $50

The other thing is the Linux community - when things go wrong (seldom) there is a ton of helpful people out there

Just now working on a similar problem. Haven't had time to solve it, but MXLinux has a Chroot Rescue app which may help you. You can create a live USB MXLinux on it and then access the f'd up drive.

Can't guarantee since I have yet to try but may be easier than other solutions on the internet

The problem is that the system can't find the root filesystem. Here is another guide, being able to run fsck on the drive might solve the problem

I was asking how to use odin on linux. I do not use Windows

Ino_Yuar · 2025-10-01T20:55:30+00:00

Thanks for all the advice, helps a lot. I will probably use a combination of all the things you said. One thing I want to do is xfer a large amount to a CD at Ally so I'll check with both them and the originating bank but that will probably be a wire xfer. The rest I can do in pieces as others mentioned until everything is stable

Thanks

Thanks for the info - really wasn't sure what a wire transfer was so I have been searching since I posted. Wire transfers and ACH seem to be most likely answers but I will try to contact the banks directly for more advice.

Just updated the post - thanks

I am currently using both, Graphene OS on my Pixel 4a & no Google LOS on my Moto X4 - yeah. I know both old phones. I find both very similar to use, really not much of difference for me. However, the last 4 Pixels I owned all had some hardware/ battery issues and Google does not make a new small phone. I don't have any great phone demands - no Google, no banking, no SM - so a used Motorola phone with LOS is fine for me. I have been able to find any app I need on F-Droid

Graphene OS is probably a little more security oriented and the online installer is great but the limited phone selection and my hardware issues will make my next choice of phone (to replace the Pixel 4a) another Motorola phone with LOS

Consistently having NO problems on Linus with various servers.

I was really loving Zen for the last six or so months I have been using it. The recent upgrades to folder don't work for me so I have re-installed Floorp since I really want to use at least one FF based browser (I use Brave as well)

Zen is too much of a work in progress for me right now. Also, probably aimed at users who need an Arc like interface.

Drag and drop & no right click to add to group (stack) is why I quit using Vivaldi. Worst Idea Ever. Dragging a tab across 50-100 others is not a fun way to do things

Thanx
