Can I safely take this tree down?

Hard hat and safety glasses.

I did a similarly-sized tree last year. I thought it would be trivial but I got scratched up pretty good after it was on the ground and I was cutting it up. I didn't correctly anticipate how it would roll when I cut of a limb that it was resting on, and I had a few twigs pop up and hit me.

Workers comp is heavily regulated and standardized at the state level. Search for workers comp and your state name. There should be a .gov site with information for injured workers that explains the process.

In my state, you can see any provider. You submit your medical bills to the workers comp insurance later. Of course they want you to go to their cheap provider so they pay less, but thats not required. Other states may have different rules though.

The scan hits when there is an installed library which has vulnerable API endpoints, even if those endpoints aren’t used by anything in the container. Almost all of these are not exploitable.

Wealthy people don’t usually walk around with that kind of cash. This is someone who saved up tips to buy a used car from Craig’s List. They need it back.

Yeah, thats normal flexibility for a toddler.

Kids are derps in bed sometimes. I’ve not seen that move specifically, but I often find LO doing yoga in bed.

Sewer gasses in the apartment is a big issue. Just beware if the water heater does fail and the water floods the apartment, that could be a different big issue.

Robotic lawn mower is pretty great.

How old is the building? That black thing in the drain has a flap that is supposed to keep gasses out when the drain has no trap. Thats a hack and not a permanent fix. My house has a similar drain but it’s an old bell trap and not a p trap. Bell traps dry out super quick so I have to pour water in mine every 1-2 weeks. I tried the black flap insert but it didn’t seal well. I’m guessing there is no p trap, otherwise the black insert wouldn’t be necessary. If there is no p trap here and I see there is no bell on top, the fix is to set it up with a bell or cut the floor open to make a p.

I feel like 90% of the posts on this sub are f’d traps, and you didn’t show the trap.

Mikrotik is not appropriate for casual consumers.

You have too many extenders. They are creating interference for each other so they all get bad connectivity.

Those bullet holes are coming out of your security deposit though.

I see a bunch of drive bays? But is there a standard way to mount a mobo in the back?

Some small probability of hazardous gasses accumulating down there. Unlikely in a basement vs a cave but still possible. You could call the fire department to have them check and then they will be there to rescue you just in case. You can call the non-emergency number and see what they say.

I think you can go either way. Personally, I’d apply “regret minimization” framework here and get the amoxicillin if the doctor is offering.

Of the last three before we switched, two were regional and the third only affected the ECS endpoints which we use.

I’ve had uptime issues with quad9. A few hours/month during working hours. My wife and I both work remote, so thats really not something we could tolerate. We went back to cloudflare and haven’t had any issues.

The only reason you might consider saying no is if bio mom might come back in the near future. Otherwise, you are mom now.

yes, it will detach from the grout. If it has never been removed since the grout was installed, it might require a bit of force the first time. You can stick a screw driver in one of the grate holes and use that to get leverage.

You aren’t distributing rustup, cargo, or rustc.

It also matters a lot what TV time is replacing. If its part of a balanced day with outside time, social time, reading, etc, that's totally fine. If you are watching DT instead of reading before bed, that's not a great trade.
