US taxes all forms of income. Wages, investments, gambling winnings, gifts (after fairly generous exemptions). If money goes in your pocket, Uncle Sam gets a cut.

The UPS needs some power to keep its batteries full. Could be that it’s triggering off some threshold to do a charge cycle instead of just running a constant trickle. I’ve noticed that my laptop and phone charge that way, for example.

…hanging from their cables…

It really depends on what your data is and how hard it would be to recreate. I keep a spare HD in a $40/year bank box & rotate it every 3 months. Most of the content is media - pictures, movies, music. Financial records would be annoying to recreate, but if there’s a big enough disaster to force me to go to the off-site backups, I think that’ll be the least of my troubles. Some data logging has a replica database on a VPS.

My upload speed is terrible, so I don’t want to put a media library in the cloud. If I did any important daily content creation, I’d probably keep that mirrored offsite with rsync, but I feel like the spirit of an offsite backup is offline and asynchronous, so things like ransomware don’t destroy your backups, too.

55% of Georgia lives in Atlanta - she can’t win statewide without doing at least OK among the people she’s spent the last 4 years denigrating. Her kind of politics really only plays in the specific rural district she represents.

Is he attacking America until we burn?

I think Trump should take a lesson from Henry VIII. If they won’t make him Pope, he should start his own religion. The constitution only prohibits Congress from forming a national religion - nothing at all about the PresidentKing

With only 15U, assuming devices don’t stick out the back, I’d move it face-up, so devices are more hanging from their ears than cantilevered. A full, 42/48U rack is extremely top-heavy and tipping during move is a serious risk, but 15U is fine. It’s still very dense, and OP should try to ratchet-strap it to hard points in the trailer.

My mom will still tell you that things would be much worse if Harris had won. Can’t say how, but she doesn’t hear the sarcasm when I suggest we’d all be learning Mandarin online while recovering from forced gender reassignment surgery and seems to consider that a legitimate possibility.

I’m sure the argument goes that these aren’t “real” citizens, but only some gang member’s anchor baby.

When I was young and naive, I figured I should be able to buy a tool or jig, take it out of the box, and use it. The longer I play, the more I realize almost all of those things benefit by some hand tuning. This is a great example.

Don’t be afraid to scratch alignment marks or drill holes in that expensive new tool. It’s yours, and you know better how you work than some engineer in Indianapolis.

I think OP is talking about a single building with single-family occupancy and commercial storefront. At least in the US, a lot of single-family residential zones exclude commercial use.

For me, the effort of going somewhere to exercise is a big impediment, and I’m self-conscious exercising in front of people. The low barrier to start a daily workout wins, hands down.

Others find camaraderie just having other people involved in the same process, or really enjoy the variety of machines and options of a well-equipped facility.

You have to figure out which type of person you are. The most important thing is just to do something. (Unless you have specific, Jason Momoa-type goals in mind)
