Cloudfare is down because they got overwhelmed by the GCP customers hammering requests trying to get their services back online.

I'm moving back to on-prem.
GCP is down. 2 hours dealing with this nightmare.

I'm getting really tired of the touting of very small ($5-10/mo) benefits to varying subscription services that don't rollover as a justification for increased annual fees.


I just bailed on Amex Gold after 7 years because of this bull shite.

$10 to uber
$10 to grub hub
$7 to Dunkin
$50 2 times a year at a resy restaurant.

None rollover.

I'm over here looking for 1 lunch per month, wondering what restaurants are resy restaurants, and forcing myself to go out of my way for a shitty Dunkin coffee and donut for my kids once a month.

Fed up to no end. They said they would waive the fee for a year and give me $250 credit if I commit for 2 or more years. I still bailed.

Credit card rewards are becoming comical.

It's just word play best I can tell.

They reduce it 1.4T if you took what exists today and extend it over the same 10 year curve, but over that same 10 years it's still going to be over 30T.

Fast forward to 2035, and our debt is 38T instead of 39.4T.

Congrats to all.

Exactly.

The beach sucks, it sucks more with young kids, and it especially sucks when the kids are still on a strict nap schedule.

We just got back from Cinnamon Shore and wont go back for several years until kids are older and capable of survival.

I just booked 4 nights at Horseshoe Bay to replace it. Kids will have just as much fun, if not more fun, and it will be so much easier.

I'll agree with this. I try to grab some when I go to the camp in Natchitoches, right after swinging through Maggios.

They don't call it crack chicken up there for nothing.

FBD is a Barrow Brewing Hat Tip Hefe while waiting on hot food for the family from Happy Pizza Co. Sacrifices.

I'm passively shopping between an F150 and a Ram and honestly this thread did a massive disservice to the Ram's chances.
He edited his thread after several people commented, myself included.

Originally this had basically nothing to do with retirement.
Find a new job.

This is a part of compensation IMO. Especially when factoring in my wife and kids.

I suggest he not get this degree.

I have one, and ended up going back to school (really never even leaving) for a different degree. This added time and expense. Nobody knows I have this degree in my professional life today.

I've had a Kuat Sherpa, a previous Rocky Mounts, and currently have a Kuat Transfer v2 single-bike.

I can speak that Kuat makes quality racks. I'd buy one of them before Rocky Mounts, but RM does make a good rack too. I just find the Kuats to be a bit more refined. Both equally secure.

I didn't know the transfer had a 4 bike configuration, but if it does then that's your best bet given your budget.
A dolphin.

Not a hair on me. Swimming so hard. Looking to frick for fun.

Bull shite.

No chance insurance on that Nissan Altima is only $200.
