    First million is enough

    I know one person that does just that, with a paid off house. I know another in a similar situation, although they also get a small pension of a few hundred dollars a month. Also with a paid off house. Both of these people have had a new roof during the past few years. One just bought a new set...

    First million is enough

    Most people in the U.S. don't make $16,000 a month, let alone spend at that level. I don't know why you're surprised.

    What have you read recently?

    I just finished Determined: A Science of Life without Free Will by Robert Sapolsky. A neurobiological take of why we do what we do. It made me think about the hows and whys of my own actions, and that of others. I recommend the book. Dr. Sapolsky is a neuroendocrinology researcher and a...

    Sildenafil 50mg for Pulmonary Hypertension

    I don't know what's going on with the price you received, but $4000 sounds ridiculously high to me. GoodRx lists pharmacies by me at $17 for 90 tablets of 20 mg sildenafil. I recommend skipping Wellcare and checking with other pharmacy benefit managers.

    US DOJ and 16 States Sue Apple for Violating Antitrust Laws, Establishing Monopoly

    Videos sent from Apple phones to Android phones via Apple's message app look like they are rendered using about 4 pixels. They are intentionally borked. You may not think it's a problem, but others don't like it.

    Would Like Input Regarding Cheap Refurb Win10 Computers

    I've purchased a refurb desktop and laptop in the past from HP and Lenovo a few years ago, they're still in service at my house. Until last December, I was running a home-built i5-6500 with 16 MB computer as my main computer for over 7 years. It's still running fine as my new media server. I...

    Income Tax Payment Timeline

    I efile my taxes with FreeTaxUSA in late Feb/early March, and schedule any required payment in early April. FreeTaxUSA walks me through the process, and I expect TurboTax would do the same.

I get the TV schedule from a Schedules Direct subscription. I access the Jellyfin server content on each TV...

    June 31st--New Leap Day?!

    The 29th day for this year labeled February to keep the calendar synced with the seasons. The actual day is the same whether you call it Feb 29 or Mar 1. Moving the leap day to another month doesn't actually change the days in a given season, it changes how they're labeled in the calendar. It...
