    RVs vs Hotels

    Nothing feels better than home after being in an RV for a few days. Solid concrete floors, wide hallways, roomy walk around beds with side tables, extra bathrooms etc… For those reasons we have gone the AirBNB and hotels now. Especially since it’s just 2 of us. We save money on food eating...

    Riviera Marina Question

    When I had my boat in a slip, because of all the stray current I would go through a set of anodes every 6 months. It was important to keep those maintained.

    Capital gains vs a parent to kid loan Tax advise

    It starts with the 100k sale of stock that puts a bullseye on you. But you are right, you can give it a try and hope you don’t get audited… it’s tax fraud. But at the end of the day you can give it a try?

    Capital gains vs a parent to kid loan Tax advise

    SBLOC - security backed line of credit, rates are generally not any better than a HELOC. Most of the time they can also “call in the loan” if the value of the security drops. You also said they lack or don’t want to leverage the liquidity they have in some asset class. So how will the...

    Solar panel Cleaning?

    Mine don’t seem to get that dirty and the rain does most of the work. When I have cleaned them I just hose them off, but I have never observed any difference in output pre and post wash…. I have a ground mount array so it’s really easy to clean

    Towing boat behind the houseboat

    Use a crazy strong rope… not a ski rope or anything close to it. I think we used 3/8 or 1/2 inch braided dock line. Some heavy duty tube tow ropes work too.

    Lake Powell Today

    Probably not unless you have it parked on a really low slope beach. Normally only a couple feet of the pontoon is “beached” and the lines are holding it on. I guess theoretically if you left it long enough and the lake dropped several feet. But that operator error and the boat should be...

    Crowdstrike - basic IT processes

    So you back fill your non production systems after your "trusted vendor" pushes your production? ... no way I would still require crowdstrike to push through my non production first. I don't expect crowdstrike or any vendor to have every possible clients ecosystem to test. Don't care...

    Crowdstrike - basic IT processes

    I have been out of the IT game for 2 years having supported production mission critical systems for utilities for 29 years… Are these new IT youngsters deploying updates directly into their production Systems? Don’t you deploy all your third party updates into Dev/Test/QA prior to production...

    Prime Day deals?

    I have a couple JBL Bluetooth speakers… when you link them together they gobble up the batteries in less than an hour. It works well sounds good but I can’t do it on the boat where I wanted to because of high power consumption

    quagga inspection in Uturd

    The water was really clear over memorial. Quaggas filter the suspended algae and create some of the clearness… so I am not suprised. Plus the bass fishing was epic with the clear water.
