Maybe Bigfoot is an alien. Checkmate, skeptics

I am not financially literate enough to understand this, so probably don’t do bonds?

I’m not super financially literate buuuuut I’d say bonds. They don’t participate in the nightmare machine known as the stock market, which is a plus. They’re guaranteed, no hoping line go up or stressing line go down. And if they can’t repay you, well your 401k won’t be a concern at that point.

Check out revivo for cheaper(ish) vivos that would have been landfill. Dunno much about European brands other than that

I agree, though there are plenty of situations where you must have a chromium based browser. If it must be a daily driver, Arc is probably better than ungoogled-chromium.

Zen is good. Arc is decent if you must have a chromium browser for some reason, but not OSS

No it’s a camperdown elm. I looked it up.

Those do look like they’re growing upside down kinda, though.

For a new recipe I just recently found out how easy hummus is to make so it’s gotta be that.

So easy:

  • 1 can chickpeas, drained except a healthy splash of the aquafaba
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • garlic

Toss it all in a food processor or blender and hit it til it’s the right consistency. Taste, adjust, blend, repeat. Add salt or spice or whatever you want.

If it’s anything like the solar panel leasing scams in the US the downsides would be:

  • the panels are low quality/old tech, not something you would end up with if you were buying them yourselves
  • the contract covers your house, not yourself. So to sell you must get the new owners to accept the contract or pay for the panels outright first
  • low quality installation that will likely degrade the roof integrity
  • sneaky fine print where they can extract money out of you in various situations like maintenance
  • absolutely no concern for viability of placement, installing panels where it doesn’t make sense. The focus is on installing the maximum number of panels so they get the most money

That’s definitely the problems with these contractors in the US. Might be different or actually legit elsewhere, but it’s a common “scam” for the last year or two and has boned a lot of people. IIRC it usually costs $20-30k to get rid of them or buy everything out to sell your house. Fine print!
