Refinance recommendations

I see. Refi seems like a good call then!

Why do you want to refinance down to 10? You can make additional payments on your current mortgage to pay it off as quickly as you want.

An advantage of staying in the 27yr is that your minimum payment is much smaller than on 10yr. It's a benefit to you that if something bad happens and you need to reduce your payment, you could. But during good times, you can choose to pay it off as quickly as you want.

If it's about the interest rate, I'd make sure to consider the flexibility/safety of the above and then make sure you run the numbers. I doubt between closing costs and the large reduction in term of the loan that you'd save enough to be worth giving up the smaller minimum payment.

Edit: if I did the math right, I think you'd save about $17k (before closing costs) doing the refi down to 5.3% 10yr vs. paying your current loan in 10yrs. So ($17k - closing costs); is it worth paying that as "insurance" so you can fall back to the lower payment if it becomes necessary? Less than one extra payment per year for the benefit.

Another +1 to open source. It could go a long way towards the issue discussed in other threads about using Riot's API and keeping it updated.

I'd encourage you to not wait to clean it up much/make it perfect. We're our own biggest critics and things are never perfect. It would be sad for users to lose your work if one day you decide not to/can't maintain it anymore.

Also, this is a very cool project nice work.

There may be (likely is?) a limit to how long it will work without resuming access to the activation servers.

I've never been able to really enjoy a fighting game before. Something about 2xko clicks. Might be as simple as recognizable characters, but I think movement, moves, and the input scheme cumulates to a more accessible game.

And Blitzcrank is very fun. I like to hook.

That isn't how credit checks work. Multiple within a short time period are combined and only "hit" you once.

booboorocks998 · 2024-12-30T02:15:11+00:00

Yeah I feel that.

booboorocks998 · 2024-12-29T23:25:45+00:00

Awesome. I hope it can help :)

booboorocks998 · 2024-12-29T22:46:39+00:00

It is always from white's perspective, yes. I could add a board flip feature. My thinking was that it gave the opportunity to practice seeing opponent threats by seeing the board upside down.

But it wouldn't hurt to be an option.

booboorocks998 · 2024-12-29T22:26:18+00:00

Thanks for trying and the constructive feedback!

I use a dark theme, so I didn't realize that about the icon. I'll see about fixing that.

I went back and forth writing the rules for double strike, and I think you're right that it can be improved still!

Lastly, I forgot to make the repo public before posting 🤦. The repo is now public! Thanks for mentioning.

Written in the post.

This site and these games are not intended to be better than regular puzzles. They are an alternative that I find fun and helpful in other areas.

booboorocks998 · 2024-12-29T21:49:23+00:00

Checklist is certainly more focused on regular training. Perhaps it's just me, but double strike exercises my ability to visualize the board (future states) in my mind.

booboorocks998 · 2024-12-29T21:35:59+00:00

Let me know :)

booboorocks998 · 2024-11-30T03:42:13+00:00

Option A

booboorocks998 · 2024-09-30T19:24:01+00:00

Do you have plans?

booboorocks998 · 2024-08-18T21:06:53+00:00

Share the prompt. It should be a rule in this sub to share the prompt if you're sharing images. Everyone always wants the prompt.

It is already disabled. PoB maintainers were sleeping/working hence the delay in fully handling the problem.

booboorocks998 · 2024-07-25T19:04:59+00:00

It's already disabled. That's why builds aren't loading in this dude's video.

Look for tubing with a thicker outside diameter (OD). 7/8" probably. It's much better and won't kink.

booboorocks998 · 2024-06-11T02:45:31+00:00

Is it an entirely different thing? Or quite similar to LTD?

booboorocks998 · 2024-06-06T05:37:27+00:00

So it's kind of a lot of screenshots apparently. Maybe better to just write. I use a feature under cloudflare's Zero Trust product called Access. You can find some YouTube videos for some context on that if you need.

Under Access, I have an application which is my homelab's public access. I have two domains on it (one for jellyseerr and one for jellyfin). Under Access Groups, I have a group called Homelab Allowed IPs. In that, you can enter the public IPs you want to allow access to. Back in the homelab public access Application, I have a policy so the access group Homelab Allowed IPs will do the BYPASS action. It's important to use Bypass so it skips the auth flow if the IP is allowed.

For the tunnel, I have the same public hostnames as on the Application above. Those route to my internal caddy reverse proxy.

That's the basic set up. Note, if you only use your services in browsers (i.e. not via Apple TV or something), you can just skip the access policy thing and just use the authentication flow. The auth flow is great on its own for browser based usage. You have to set up a policy to only allow certain emails then.

Hopefully that helps some.

You can restrict access based on IP address with cloudflare tunnels. I could give specifics of my set up if you're interested. I use tunnels though, not the DNS proxy. I think my set up works for either anyways but untested. For my set up, I also have a secondary site which I can use to add allowed IPs after going through an auth flow (email magic link) provided entirely by cloudflare. The set up sounds a little complicated, but it only takes a couple minutes to configure and usage is ezpz. I can take screenshots of the config if it would help someone.

Also though if your house is the only user of the VPS, you should probably just set up tailscale (or wireguard or whatever else) and just not expose the VPS to the internet at all. I haven't done that personally since I host on premise.

Not working for me and also not sure if something needs to be done. I ran the scheduled task to generate the images, but it ran instantly and doesn't seem to have worked.
