I'm not against making money, we all have to - but please don't act like it's "not about the money" and then make it about the money.
This is the way. When I had the same dream I took my RV to a remote, rural spot that was in my top 3 for purchasing land in (south of Mossyrock, WA), rented a hipcamp (airbnb for rvs) for 2 months... Views were gorgeous, land was gorgeous and plentiful, people were insanely nice... but man, driving 45 min to wally world (the closest large grocer) sucked ass. The closest gas station being a ~15min drive sucked ass. It was a real eye opener.
Not as severe: had a memory leak with dev tools open the other day that crashed the browser pretty quick... also got into a situation where youtube music was open in a tab and that tab 'froze' even though the music was playing, couldn't move it or close it or switch to it.
I was at a cast party with my s/o (she is in theatre) and all the women were chanting that only short kings were at the party (I'm 5'8) - that's the closest I've been to rejection lol.
Horrific... I know he killed himself already. I know there is no real justice in this world. I can't stop my primal brain from wishing stringing him up by his feet and torturing him to death would bring those girls back or prevent others from doing the same. Edit: He ziptied thier hands and put plastic bags over their heads to suffocate them. This is not a mental health thing, this is an evil incarnate thing.
Dang sorry to hear that - I just followed the docker compose instructions and setup Caddy (which was also new to me) on my VPS and I was off the races, no issues yet.
KitchenOwl is my latest addition and I am getting a lot of use out of it - s/o and I use it to share a grocery shopping list, slowly starting to add my recipes to it as well. I used to use a shared google keep list but KitchenOwl works a lot better.
Sure! https://softshellweb.com/shared-hosting looks like it's $20 USD a year without a promotion/coupon. I bought a holiday special if memory serves me correct.
Yup in a 'normal' housing market I would totally expect to pay more to do a custom build. House builders are like walmart, they get volume deals that you don't have access to building a single unit. I used 'Sweet Home 3d" (basically sketchup light just for buildings) to plan the house/site over several months before using online estimators for material as a ballpark, now finally working with a professional. For site planning I hired the geotechnical engineers and the waste water engineers to submit their findings/blessings to the county.
Land is very hard to finance, I ended up saving until I could buy cash
Building 'on-grid' would have saved a lot in permitting and setup (luckily I had electric service at the road). If you are going off-grid, I would check the permitting requirements for sewage/water and the average depth of wells near your spot, this can get expensive quick if you have to drill deep.
I'm working with an architect atm but we've pivoted to using ICF blocks for wall construction as they are made in the USA and tariffs would have killed me otherwise.
I would expect the cost of the building, using the highest quality materials (not luxury) to still beat (by like 100k) the cost of buying an equivalant old home in the area I purchased; however, if we are talking pre-housing-price-explosion of the last few years, I would say building would be more expensive.
