A few versions ago I upgraded it and some default port configs changed rendering it unusable. Since my upgrades are a docker command, I had to go hunt down the error message. It didn't take long, but it def broke the setup.

Sad that you're downvoted for being right.

Java apps can be memory hogs, but anything else can be too. The jvm is exceptionally performant for persistently running apps.

I wouldn't say I'm in love, but it's not bad. I feel like it's a return to board game mechanics with all the choices.

I've yet to complete my first game (still in the second age). It will be interesting to see how they modify it over time. Did you read the "feedback response" post just at the end of the preorder release?

I live in a large city suburb. It was a licensed electrician. Still $300ish.

External conduit in the garage, about 12ft, so not terrible.

My level 2 charger cost $600 and I paid an electrician to install a 240V plug for 2 hours and parts (~300 IIRC). I wouldn't say "thousands". Maybe a thousand plus some if you want a fancier charger.

Retailers operate on exceptionally thin margins so that they make nothing or next to nothing outside of major consumer holidays. The day after Thanksgiving became a day when most were off work so they'd take advantage of the extra time to go get some Christmas shopping done. Retailers would go from "in the red" to "in the black" from a profit and loss perspective.

Retailers noticed and started offering sales to lure in these shoppers who were spenders.

Door buster sales as loss-leaders became a thing and soon everyone was in on the consumer holiday.

You might mention the library license of the underlying library, it's strictly non commercial meaning yours is too.

Gitlab really pissed me off with their paid plans for work. We moved to GitHub, and while that's not popular here, they offered everything we needed at nearly 1/4 the price.

Gitlab kept saying $99/user per month, no way to have different "classes" of users at different paid plans. Just awful.

I told them we were switching unless they came back with a fair offer. Ignored. Renewal time came up and I told them we weren't renewing... Oh NOW they want to bargain and try to retain us??? F right off. Microsoft might be the devil, but they offer a good product for the price.

I used to self host gitlab, but they kept putting things behind the pay wall. GG.

Self hosting, Forgejo all the way!!
