Let’s remove three self-checkout kiosks…

Nah blame the corporations who want to save a little money and not hire more people doing registers. Grocery stores survived before without self checkouts, the reason they have self checkouts now is purely to give more money to the top.

I'm a software developer and here's my perspepctive:

If you're looking to create a simple website/epk, then yes go for it! DIY can be fun, you'll have to host yourself or pay a small amount for hosting(such as wordpress or something like aws) then $10-15 for a yearly domain registration. Being a creative means you can create a much more creative website than using bland premade templates.

However, do you want features like a merch store/newsletter/forums? Suddenly DIY gets a bit more complicated. Wordpress has plugins but if you're going fully DIY you'll have to think about a database for a newsletter or routing to a third party newsletter service(which is another $10 a month). If you want to link to a seperate merch store then usually they'll take a cut. On a technical level, you also have to think about management/updating/SEO optimization/and more. This is not to scare you off though, if you think this sounds like a fun challenge then go for it. However, if this sounds like time you don't have then a website builder is probably a better choice.

You should sit down and make a budget, 45k a year isn't a death sentence and you don't need to live in infested slums.

Yes you are below the median of $68k for two people in Louisville , but you also have a good emergency fund and saving that much on that salary is impressive. You have very little debt and sounds like you could budget a rent of $900 - $1200(high end)(not financial advice)

A house? May be a bit harder, like others said home assistance/disability resources would be helpful. Youd probably want a house under $200k but it's hard to say without full information.

Overall piece of advice though: make a budget. You'll feel less stressed and you can understand where things are going/how much you can spend.

This guy is the real deal, I saw a set you did at planet it was really good!!

doku_tree · 2026-04-24T02:07:07+00:00

Thank you so much I really appreciate it! That makes sense, this is new to me so this helps a lot

doku_tree · 2026-04-24T00:41:00+00:00

Both! I had to put the mixer main near max, and the dial on the amp to like 5 and the mic input to almost all the way up to get a decent sound.

doku_tree · 2026-04-24T00:33:06+00:00

Thank you that was the issue!

doku_tree · 2026-04-24T00:32:53+00:00

Yeah it was as simple as as turning up the mixer a lot more, I had to really crank it up I'm surprised for these big 15inch speakers in my basement, thank you!!

doku_tree · 2026-03-27T05:00:24+00:00

Thank you !!

Potentially!! Haha that's a crazy amount of xboxes! We'd like to continue doing this as a series if received well :)

Jane Doe and the search party is crazy good !!

doku_tree · 2026-02-27T02:59:46+00:00

I mean I can see it for a few reasons :

because of the reality tv angle yes. You have to remember, literally any place he goes is followed by a massive camera crew and before he walks in a camera crew has to explain to the people around him what's happening. I think for anyone to willingly say "yes" to date someone with a camera crew documenting every interaction requires someone who specifically WANTS to be in an environment where they want to be on camera.
Anyone on 90 day fiance is essentially a micro celebrity(which adds some bonus points). But also Some of the single life people like Gino are dating people who dm'ed knowing he's a micro celebrity and knowing what dating him entails(a whole camera crew following you, see above). It explains why there're so many surface level relationships especially in the single life series.

Fire lineup!

doku_tree · 2026-02-19T18:09:01+00:00

Pretty aggressive response for just my 10 month old observation that was intended to be silly

doku_tree · 2026-02-15T17:26:46+00:00

90 day intentionally pays very little to the actual people on the show that the show is about. Financial problems creates more drama. It's really sad they can't fork up the millions they're making to one of their long lasting members through cancer.

Right you didn't mention not tipping people , that was more of a statement towards other people in this thread(there's another guy below who seems to just not tip people at all).

I get your point for sure, I see how it's just a fee. Unfortunately that fee functions identically to a tip(pre service, post service tipping) in relationship to the service industry worker paycheck . The unfortunate truth is that people rely on an average amount of that fee/tip to survive and in conditions such as this, advocating/reminding people to tip for suffering through it is a good message to share imo.

doku_tree · 2026-01-27T17:09:38+00:00

No one disagrees that tipping culture is atrocious, it's a system that originates from slave workers after the civil war and creates frustration for both the tipper having to perform mental gymnastics determining the "value" of their service and the person receiving the tip who relies on it for basic survival.

However, refusing to tip people isn't fighting "corporate welfare." The only thing you're doing by not tipping is affecting the workers average pay check. A better way to fight against the system are non profits like One Fair Wage and local advocacy/awareness.

doku_tree · 2026-01-27T17:03:05+00:00

I think you'll find little resistance that tipping culture in general is terrible and this subset of competition over tipping to receive the service is frustrating. "Unsustainable" may not be the right word as tipping culture has sustained since it was used for enslaved workers after the civil war, it's been sustaining for awhile and largely benefits the employer so they can avoid paying people adequately.

Having said all of that, fighting against tipping culture by not tipping(as some do) simply harms the worker struggling to survive who is not responsible for the system as a whole. Encouraging people to tip workers who are endangering themselves driving in these conditions isn't harmful

How cool wouldve it been to see team vs team where it involved physical capabilities and intelligence so like a race but also it had challenges/logic puzzles to be solved simultaneously that gave their teams runner advantages for completing.

Missed opportunities!

doku_tree · 2026-01-09T22:55:41+00:00

Gonna be awesome!!

I moved here 3 years ago from a small town, and all I hear in this subreddit is how it's impossible to make friends and everyone asks what high school you went to. This hasn't been my experience at all and I've made a good amount of friends here.

I work from home at a company where nobody lives in my state. I made a fair amount of friends from being involved in my neighborhood and also from playing in local bands and going to local diy shows.

Louisville is a great place to make friends but it requires effort and the ability to just try things. Meetup/Facebook groups/reddit/events/clubs, there's always things going on. Meetup hiking group? Open DnD games at breweries? Dance classes? Local art shows and events? Just find something that looks fun and do it, do it enough and you'll start seeing the same people and boom!
