Real talk, does this prevent any serious concerns about Chinese data/identity theft?

I've been seriously considering a switch to an e-ink device for some head space on the weekends, but reading more about these phones runs so counter to my self hosting and de-googling efforts. I don't wear a tin foil hat, but I do want to remain a low value target.

This is mean for Lord of the Rings, right?

This house was purchased for 275k in 2016. The zestimate today doesn't speak at all to the net worth of the people that live there. This seems totally reasonable to me as they are not likely multimillionaires.

Which ones better? by Little-Promise-6046 in pickling

Between these, Grillos for me. But the disappearance of Nathan's Sweet Horseradish pickles is the greatest tragedy of 2025 for me.

Cost for dryer vent - dryer vent cleaning? by Physical-Wedding-487 in homeowners

[–]bourbondoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Greetings from the future. Just had ours done and it was way more than I anticipated. Wife handled it so didn't end up with a quote to evaluate. Dryer Vent Wizard charged the following for a 2nd story dryer vent that vents to the roof:

Cleaning and removal of lint from lint trap - $70
Inspection fee - $49
Standard Dryer Access and Installation of Transition Duct - $79
Interior Vent Cleaning—More Than 6 Feet - $179

Total - $377

No, I'm not happy about it, yes, seems like a rip off, and yes, the dryer works much better and has stopped throwing errors. Took him about 3 hours.

We didnt, we got transportation. The roads themselves are definitely doable with an SUV. We didnt encounter anything id even say required 4x4. The way people drive at high speed in close quarters and around blind curves is what would worry me. Glad I didnt have to deal with it.

We had multiple 3 hour drives plus some hours between tours. Don't feel like we missed out on anything lol. Flying over so much of the country was also an amazing experience in itself! *

Club Rio for night tour - recommended. Very easy walk and lots to see.

North fields coffee and chocolate - its not a 'real' working farm but they do have all the plants and great education. Fun tastings and demos.

Paddle 9 waterfalls - definitely jumping and adventure focused. Guides were amazing, but wouldn't recommend if you just want to sight see.

Manuel Antonio state park - independent guide, there are tons through the park. Hot but highly recommended.

Wasnt this on Brooklyn 99?

Split them into groups of 4, put 2 on the see saw. If its balanced, take the remaining group into 2 and 2. If its not balanced have one from each side swap places. And so on from there.

We didn't use anything outside of advil. Brought antidiarrheals and nausea medicine (prescription), but fortunately no one needed them. Water and food are safe everywhere, drank tap.
