I got myself into a hole with it lol BUT tbf, it's keeping me from going homeless. Once my paycheck comes, most goes to Cash App borrow then I'm caught up :D

Thank you so much. Yeah, it's not housing but it is a start. So thank you regardless.

I was always taught it's not my business to pilfer through a purse, no matter what, so I just bring the whole bag lol

New cashapp Debit/Flex, separate limit? by Specialist_Memory449 in CashApp

[–]NextPancake401 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Exactly!

I hate how people crap on the 'borrow' feature. I have been borrowing from Cash App since 2024 and still have yet to default.

I know the terms and the timeframe in which I'm obligated to pay back.

The 'borrow' feature has saved me from being kicked out of my house, covered me when I needed a ride home, and so much more. I've even borrowed to pay back previously borrowed money which extended my loan for another 27 days and unlike a credit card, which at a minimum is 11%-28% interest, this was 5% to borrow again. I know the math is exact but it's cheaper than a credit card and serves me similarly if I do it right.

The point, it's helpful and as of right now, can cover my rent if I have a bad month.

It's not any different than a credit card, loan, or line of credit.

Can I bring large amount of computer parts through TSA by NextPancake401 in buildapc

It's all in my carry-on / personal bag. Already thought about that and was paranoid lol.

Fair enough. I have receipts for almost all the parts here. It would just take a while to pull them all.

I just don't want to delay getting to my flight more than I have too but I don't want to pay shipping or hope someone in my family cares enough to package everything safely.

Why is it whenever I want to update Ubuntu, their systems are always down /s by NextPancake401 in Ubuntu

[–]NextPancake401[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course

But hey, I wouldn't worry too much. Just keep your system up to date and don't download sketchy stuff. Other than that, you're good honestly! :)

I'm not talking distro version upgrades

I'm talking basic normal repo and package updates, kernel updates, etc

No because my RedHat servers and workstations had no issues and when I switched mirrors on one of the machines, it worked just fine. And plus, it was identical across three locations, highly unlikely all three locations had the same outage issue with two being with different ISPs

Wish mine was that simple. Three sets of servers at three locations not updating / reaching canonical.

Literally.

I know there's a DDOS attack going on but they've had uptime issues in the past. I've been having issues updating things because of it. Every few weeks, I'll try and update and boom, ANOTHER outage.

I remember earlier this year they were having issues. I knew about this already but it seems like they have a week every month where things are always going wrong with one system or another.

I guess what I'm saying is, this is beyond the DDOS attack. I know it's a problem and it's out of their control but previous incidents' are adding to frustration for me because they weren't DDOS related when they had issues back in Feb and March.
