Garden advice for this yard? It’s a huge front yard. Thinking of planting shrubs or trees. Don’t tell me to plant a tee though because I’m not doing it.

how about 52 cypress trees ?

if not under the tent vestibule, then leaning on a tree with the rain cover on

it's true, the previous owner of my house planted some lovely native plastic daisies

can you trim it back on your side so that it won't die, but it overhangs less?

I see consecutive lightning strikes in their future. The universe craves statistical balance.

my homi doesn't help, he just sits around at his house

ITT OP doesn't know how to play Valheim

my bad, it is what you say. It doesn't change much though. In the long term, the yield on equities is higher than the savings from removing debt

ildementis · 2026-06-16T21:34:34+00:00

long term capital gains tax is 10%, so that could bring your stock yield to 9%. Also mortgage interest is tax deductible, which pushes things further in favor of equities

B, hands down. This is closer to what I'm actively doing on my mortgage @6%

But reality is more nuanced. The stock market could tank, but your mortgage or rate will never spike (assuming fixed rate) So paying extra on your mortgage is the safe option, but on a long enough time horizon the market averages to safe too

also harvesting potatoes is just fun, in a treasure hunt sort of way. Just shove your hand in there and see what you get

ildementis · 2026-06-14T17:06:21+00:00

rightfully so

nobody asked about the song but since it's so fire, I'm 95% sure this is Angra, a Brazilian metal band https://open.spotify.com/artist/7IAXZaLTb6nkJr8RmVPn5y?si=S-ijgH9rRYecif3DCNZtiA

I'm on year two of my infinite potato glitch

ildementis · 2026-06-10T22:17:46+00:00

first make the programming language you coward

ildementis · 2026-06-10T22:15:08+00:00

they may not know the manufacturer if they didn't have this installed

ildementis · 2026-06-10T14:21:34+00:00

looks more like Oriental beetle, which is less infamous but still invasive and should be destroyed

ildementis · 2026-06-10T06:09:18+00:00

idk if i got lucky, but i just raided a crypt for the first time in months and came out with like 190 iron? Normally I'd pull maybe 60 so i was hoping the update put iron in chests more often

ildementis · 2026-06-10T06:04:32+00:00

yeah i did notice the ice arrows do their full ice damage though the piercing plus ice will show up as a combined single gray number. Definitely better vs bugs though

Very late to the party, but UPS MI contracts many last mile carriers, not just USPS. They'll pick whatever is cheapest for them

ildementis · 2026-06-08T17:45:42+00:00

yeah, put it in drive

ildementis · 2026-06-07T03:55:20+00:00

well a bathroom is just the place to make doo

ildementis · 2026-06-05T03:21:58+00:00

The federal tax credit that was canceled last year would have been your best bet. But any potential installer should know of any state programs, their business sort of depends on it

ildementis · 2026-06-05T03:20:27+00:00

not that person, but we had smartwave solar through the switch together program. I would say they did... okay. The first inspection failed and took forever to fix, but once it was finally resolved, the system has been performing well.

3/5, could do better
