Holy wow, where are you located if you don't mind me asking? My dad lays carpet and makes like 35k a year.

What they fail to realize is that optimizing and spreadsheets are fun for some people

I'm deeply invested in bitterness for leaving 1 comment pointing out that it might not even be a choice for someone if they couldn't afford it? Lol. Get a grip. I can simultaneously be thankful that modern medicine exists and also advocate for it being available to everyone, not just those that can afford it.

So what should they do without 10 days of income they likely need for food, shelter, etc? Not eat? Get evicted? Sounds like a great way to not avoid death

The last few winters my dad had to drive up to Minnesota when he wanted to snowmobile - we would have like 1 inch of snow while they had feet of it

I live in Iowa but work remotely for a company in Minnesota - we got like 2 feet more snow than Minnesota did with the blizzard a few weeks back. The climate has been so crazy these last few months

It isn't free, but I use a seedbox for running my Plex server. That way none of the media downloading is done on our local internet, all the ISP should see is that we are streaming data from a Plex server. They'd have no knowledge on if we own that data or not. I'm sure Jellyfin can also easily be run from a seedbox

Having a seedbox is also helpful because our internet has a pretty low upload speed, which would make watching anything outside the house a massive pain.

What the fuck is wrong with you. Either that's a terrible joke in poor taste or a terrible opinion.

This is super informative without being condescending, wonderful job

I hope you have a great day!

Interesting! Thank you for the insight, I've always loved the topic of direct translation vs contextual translation ever since I dove into it in a Contemporary Japanese Literature course in college

Would "just throw the whole thing away" (as in throw it into the trash) be a more fitting translation for the sentiment than "let it rot" then?
