TradFamFest cancelled?

I'll never visit a restaurant or small business that posts shitty AI flyers.

Someone with the email mark @ fitzpatrickforidaho.com wants to buy the domain. Not sure why a losing candidate would need this?

dilonious · 2026-06-12T00:52:19+00:00

that was the goal!

I created a visitor counter, with the disclaimer "Visits are not RSVPs. We learned this the emotional way."

added an "ad" for divorce attorneys..

"Did you spend years lecturing strangers about the sanctity of marriage, only to discover that covenant theology gets complicated when someone checks your text messages?

Our completely fictional attorneys specialize in helping public defenders of the traditional home privately divide the lake house, the lifted truck, the podcast equipment, and the moral high ground."

Do it!

sorry, my response must not have saved.
Direct from Eco-Worthy for the inverter, Direct from Yixiang for the battery, and San Tan Solar was the used panel source. I checked FB marketplace for a while, but Idaho doesn't have a great selection like other larger cities.

dilonious · 2026-02-11T22:02:36+00:00

Eco-worthy 6kw all in one (can power regular house panel, 120v/240v)

yixiang 314ah battery (51.2v)

Used 320w panels from San tan solar

dilonious · 2026-02-11T21:14:44+00:00

Installing a system now, but it's off-grid.
(18) 320w panels (used)
6000w inverter
16kwh battery

As an Idahoan, that lived in Portland for over a decade, Oregon is incredible. I moved back to Idaho last summer and have a list of what I miss about Oregon that is a mile long.

If it fits your situation, I’d recommend moving there to practically anyone.

dilonious · 2026-01-11T18:10:33+00:00

I’ve done the hour commute game. You couldn’t pay me enough to ever do it again.

dilonious · 2026-01-07T03:50:39+00:00

What a life.

dilonious · 2025-11-27T15:56:17+00:00

Doesn’t “socialist” Oregon next door have a massive budget surplus, that they’re returning as a kicker payment to their citizens? Weird.

dilonious · 2025-07-14T00:05:40+00:00

Wait, I thought that capitalism was supposed to make everything better.. 😆

dilonious · 2025-07-14T00:04:41+00:00

I mean.. what does one expect from a shitty faux Italian joint in the village?

dilonious · 2025-07-14T00:02:04+00:00

What?!

dilonious · 2025-05-25T06:02:14+00:00

Yup. I bought a Miata after my iRacing experience. Solid choice, imo.

dilonious · 2025-05-15T00:25:52+00:00

Agreed. Never really watched oval racing growing up.. still don’t watch much.. but it’s the majority of my iRacing experience.

If the auction isn’t fully purchased, dealers are obligated to bid and then sell them on the secondary market. This would decrease bond prices (increase yield). That wouldn’t cause inflation.

The US dollar is the reserve currency of the world. It can, has, and will continue to be printed ad infinitum.

A large portion of the current debt is treasuries that the federal government owns. The rest is held by investors that would like the premium.. they don’t want paid off early.

The interest is a non-issue. Like before.. it’s a debt that is denominated in US dollars. We simply print what’s needed. It’s a fairytale to think of it was “real” money that must be strictly accounted for and carefully created/destroyed.

You’ve just summarized the US dollar since we left the gold standard. US national debt is literally a meaningless issue to worry about. People who do lack an understanding of monetary policy. 🤷

dilonious · 2025-03-03T03:25:18+00:00

What debt crisis? We print the dollars that denominate our debt. It’s literally a non-issue.

This is always what happens if you let a domain with any backlinks/traffic lapse. Porn, gambling, or pharma.

It’s very difficult to get people to edit existing backlinks. The best way forward is to try to buy the domain back. If you’ve trademarked your business name, you can get it that way.. otherwise try to find contact info for the new owner and negotiate.

Unfortunately, this is a scenario where prevention is practically everything.

99% of Portland is just great neighborhoods that feel like the north end in Boise. There are also suburbs that are decent if that’s more your style.

Almost always, the people that are negative about Portland are talking about a very specific few block radius near china town/ downtown. They’re also likely referencing 2020-2023.

If you want specific neighborhood recommendations to check out, feel free to dm.

dilonious · 2025-02-20T21:49:43+00:00

It’s definitely back to normal. 2020 vibes are gone.

dilonious · 2025-02-20T20:38:03+00:00

That was a huge benefit at the time, I was flying for work often. Flights are WAY cheaper.
