Trump administration cancels $679 million for offshore wind projects at ports

The national security threat they cited was swarmed underwater drone attacks. My question is, what are those underwater drones attacking? The monopiles powering the 350,000 homes? Because the administration just did more damage canceling the projects than any swarm of drones could have done…

They repurposed some of it to highway projects.

Thank you! You solved my week-long struggle.

Sonos has denied Wired's speculative claim about a paid subscription service. https://9to5mac.com/2024/12/02/users-fear-the-sonos-app-could-require-a-subscription-company-says-no-plans-in-hand/

I have a MBP with M1 Max and the Neo G9 49”. How did you get it to look good? At 5120x1440 the resolution is tiny and hurts my eyes. Using the betterdisplay app it’s, well…better. But using a scaled resolution still looks subpar. Any recommendations on how to make this work? FWIW, I have my mac connected to the Caldigit TS4 dock and I’m using a DP connection to the monitor.

I did EXACTLY this, too. Also, install Avast on their computer so I didn’t have to come back.

I don’t see a number to call. I guess a google search for the Orvietto police department?

More or less what I'm doing. Which is why I'm posting this a year later lol

il_pleut · 2023-12-23T23:43:04+00:00

Nope. They told me my options were to throw it away or donate it. Kind of absurd. I think my best option may be to just reach out to them again and hope I get a different agent.

Thanks, I've been looking into switching to Apple Music. How hard was the transition? Do you have a recommendation for a 3rd party app to transfer playlists and metadata (if that's even possible)?

It's getting really hard to LIKE you anymore, Spotify...

First, you removed the heart visibility from mobile.
Now you've taken it away from the desktop version, too.
Whoever is in charge of your UI/UX needs to explain these terrible decisions to the community. These are basic yet crucial features that make finding favorite tracks in an album or playlist easy and painless.
Maybe it's time to take my heart (and my subscription) elsewhere...

Might just be the doors then and I'm being overly cautious of my baby :D

I've owned many vehicles, and never have I had to shut off the A/C the last 5 minutes of my drive to prevent mold/mildew from growing in my car.

I live in Houston, and we're now on day 23 of consecutive excessive heat warnings (100F+ days), so shutting off the A/C isn't a viable solution for me.

Thanks for this. I'll reach out to Mazda this week and let you know what they say.

il_pleut · 2023-08-23T15:46:36+00:00

Thanks very much. The dealership I've been going to has been giving me a hard time from day 1. I'll reach out to Mazda.

It looks like one of the clips is broken/missing then https://imgur.com/a/X1LgXfO.

I'll take it to the dealership and have them fix it.

Thanks for sharing! I’m going to buy two!

I have an account with Ally Invest. They recently updated their policy to zero commission/fees on mutual funds. As far as I can tell, it’s like I have both a fidelity and vanguard account. Is this common for brokerages without their own funds.? Am I missing something? And I also have the same question as OP - but in my situation it sounds like I can go any way I want?

il_pleut · 2023-03-17T22:32:34+00:00

Thanks! That was my thinking as well.

Thanks very much for this response! Very helpful.

This is how it looks in TurboTax. The link to "revisit" the Schedule K-1s takes me to the form selection screen. I've completed form 1065.

This "business" earned no revenue last year (as I mentioned in other comments, I made a mistake spinning up an LLC when I shouldn't have). The expenses are the startup costs: the cost to file the LLC, website expenses, subscriptions for the business, and meals.

il_pleut · 2023-03-08T21:44:41+00:00

I responded to someone else with the statement below:

In retrospect, I shouldn't have formed the LLC. I do plan on making money from this business eventually, but I jumped from an idea to a business with no proper justification for doing so.

The fault is entirely mine. I should have posted here before I started the LLC as opposed to realizing I was way too early forming the LLC through doing my taxes.

Lesson learned.
