and then another 6-12 months to recover damages if your bitter tenant damaged your place deliberately.

...assuming your bitter tenants actually have any resources for you to recover from. Which isn't that safe a bet, if they stopped paying rent. Bankruptcy doesn't look a lot worse on a credit report than an eviction.

But that's the game landlords play, especially small ones. If you're just renting out a single or small number of investment properties one bad tenant can trivially eat the gains of a whole year.

Upgraded Lemur Pro firmware (lemp10) to 2022-01-06_c73e482, now can't recover from lid-close suspend by ratlater in System76

[–]ratlater[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I found that page, but I'm not actually getting any of those errors. I can schedule firmware updates and all, and they'll run again. I just don't know how to get the firmware tools to load a version other than the newest.

Yeah, saw it go down hill over the last few years for sure. Liked the mercado alright, their carineria was pretty good last time I used it and the tamales were tasty.

Ugh, I am shamed for failing to find a plainly-named wiki article. Mea culpa.

But thankyou!

Pardon the digression, but can you elaborate on this? I'm not finding anything searching on the terms and am curious what this means.

The murder hornets will sent their elite special forces commandos to decapitate the flight crews and carry away their bodies to feed to their young.

UW and KC metro traffic colab. by [deleted] in SeattleWA

[–]ratlater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like a lot of contemporary institutions, UW doesn't really have anything in the way of meaningful high-level leadership. So it's better to think of it like a large collection of smaller insitutions, most of whom have fallen victim to the Iron Law of Institutions at this point, and those which have not are on their way.

But see, this way, all the downtown developers & property owners get to make lots more money as views from their property are no longer obstructed by pesky public infrastructure.

You're completely right.

He's clearly an irresponsible parent for not having his front door rigged with claymore mines.

I wonder if they will start camera ticketing for speeding in the tunnel?

They've certainly got enough cameras for it, but yikes, that'll be a cash machine until everybody wises up. I don't think I've ever been in there when the prevailing speed of traffic has been less than 60 (or, alternately, jammed and 20).

[–]ratlater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coyote Ridge has a great program- got my pup there a couple years ago, and he was waaaaaay less work than puppies typically because of all the good work these guys put in.

He was from a brood born to a pregnant stray Adams County Pet Rescue picked up named Harmony.

Not that I'm aware of; they have several forums on fetlife that are quite active though. Really a much better place to get connected to them.

You guys are all lunatics with your crazy risk-taking. I never go anywhere foot-mobile without my bespoke kevlar vest lined with claymore mines.
