We were lucky enough to have bought our house in 2017 and refinanced during the historic low rates of 2020. At this point we are paying more per month for food than we do for our mortgage. I feel extremely fortunate and I feel badly for the millions out there dealing with this plus rent increases and the moratorium on student loans ending this summer.

I have no expertise, but I would recommend balancing aesthetics with utility. We have an engineered hardwood in our house and our Golden has more or less destroyed it over 6 years just from normal use. My parents have this tile flooring that looks like hardwood and it’s SO robust. They have four dogs and their floors still look perfect. If I was going to do it all over again, I’d get the stylized tile.
I like this idea. Would it be kind of like r/ShowerThoughts?
I like this idea. It always bothered me that there were so many creative people on Reddit and they could not use Reddit to share their content because most subs had a “no self promotion” policy.
I get that you don’t want people spamming, but if someone works hard to create content they think a community would like then I see no reason that shouldn’t be celebrated.
In my opinion having mainstream adoption is a double edged sword. It’s nice to have that larger user base, but at the same time most subreddits went to crap when they became default subs. I’ll never forget starting out my career r/personalfinance was not a default sub and I could get very insightful specific advice from people who really seemed to understand what they were talking about. Flash forward and it became a default sub. Now it’s an echo chamber and borderline circlejerk sub. It feels like a parody of what it used to be.
So far I don’t miss that or mind the smaller feel here.
Interesting, I wonder why this couldn’t be accomplished with conventional techniques. I own a handful of “AI” Plugins meant to achieve similar cleanup and I feel like it always needs to be tweaked to sound right. And that’s for a guy like me without practiced mixing ears. I wonder why real studio engineers needed AI.
