Arch Linux on the way to the store and I can get it to you tomorrow morning and I'll be there in about an hour or so but I can do it tomorrow or tomorrow morning.

Some people lack vision.

Is there a lot of money in... ah... Incan... Matrimonial head masks?

Cheating is not the first place I would go. It's not impossible, but it's not most probable either. It's not a suspicious item, even if it's marginally unusual. It reads like you've got deeper issues, and apparently a spare power strip now.

NVV I like it and I've liked your approach so far.

Is there a way to do this in such a way that hostility is minimized? Or is that an unfair ask? I'm interested in watching and learning, but a "fuck your feelings carnist" situation is gonna pucker my butthole. I'd like to hear from actual people walking the walk, but I don't prefer spit in my eye to get it.

You found a power strip?

It's weird to be worked up about, and it's weirder to not fess up to a specialty power strip. It sounds like you got some shit going on, but it's a power strip, not a box of condoms. Like, what's the thought process here? She cheated before, so now the power strip is clear evidence of an evolved relationship where multiple specialty power tools, a projector, and a washer/dryer are being used... rendering your relationship moot? And then you call family members to probe about the appearance of a mystery outlet splitter?

I've got weird shit I forgot I ordered on Amazon around the house. Some of it I've left in the car and forgot. This doesn't seem like a "blow the relationship" smoking gun to me. But if your trust is fucked up, I mean deal with that instead and stick to it or don't. I wouldn't choose a mystery power strip as the lynch pin of that discussion though.

Be advised, for anything that requires preference or tuning "buy once cry once" is totally fallacious. The most expensive anything is not guaranteed to be the thing that suits you best. Still don't need a slur, but you don't walk into a clothing store and just buy the most expensive things. You have to put in some time and develop some preference before it makes sense to spend hard.

Now if you're just buying an angle grinder, sure, whatever buy the pricey one: it is probably made better.

But also objectively silly to buy the most expensive. Guitar one being a les Paul vs a seagull is probably not a good value proposition.

Most expensive is not always best, what fits you the best is the best and you don't know what that is until you try.

Hard agree.

Business class is worth it, and the only affordable way to buy those seats is with points. Business saver on United often has cheaper business seat pricing than premium economy. IMO, this is the best and only way to spend credit card points. As long as there isn't some goofy card where points expire, keep them for years and spend them this way.

3 weeks from now I'm doing a long haul and got 5 business class tickets with points (between 800k and 900k points) which is a butt load of points, but the dollar cost was over $12k EACH. That's like 6 or 7 cents per point, which is much more generous than taking the cash payout.

Edit: the downside here is if you want to buy tickets now you should have started saving points 2 to 4 years ago lol. Unless you get some sweet introductory offers.

I know exactly the person you're talking about. He deleted several of my good faith comments just because he could. I didn't have to block at least: I reposted the deleted comments until I caught a ban. Small victories.
