DaemonFC[m] | Looking at apartments now. | Oct 05 07:03 |
schestowitz | Did you tell him/her? | Oct 05 07:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | I'm going to drop off an application in tomorrow but I'm kind of wondering how it'll go. We make more than enough but I have a bankruptcy and an arrest record. | Oct 05 07:04 |
schestowitz | They're better off getting low paid than no payment (empty room) | Oct 05 07:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | <schestowitz "They're better off getting low p"> Yeah, the place has definitely thinned out since they raised it. | Oct 05 07:04 |
schestowitz | agree on somewhere between proposed new rate and current rate | Oct 05 07:04 |
schestowitz | that might work | Oct 05 07:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | I haven't said anything to her yet. | Oct 05 07:04 |
schestowitz | try | Oct 05 07:04 |
schestowitz | nothing to lose | Oct 05 07:04 |
schestowitz | say you look for contingencies | Oct 05 07:05 |
schestowitz | I do this with our energy supplier each year | Oct 05 07:05 |
schestowitz | last did it a week ago | Oct 05 07:05 |
schestowitz | they outsourced their call centers to India | Oct 05 07:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | We've been living here for 15 months. | Oct 05 07:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | We pay early and in full. | Oct 05 07:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | We haven't caused a nuisance. They barely hear from me unless I'm checking for mail. | Oct 05 07:05 |
schestowitz | for the first time ever... and the workers in India work from home, so the calls dropped twice already... they had to repeatedly phone back | Oct 05 07:05 |
schestowitz | Tell the district chum (District Manager) | Oct 05 07:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Yeah, I guess it couldn't hurt to try to go over that and ask if we can meet somewhere in the middle on this. | Oct 05 07:06 |
schestowitz | and the District Manager can verify from the local manager | Oct 05 07:06 |
schestowitz | *with | Oct 05 07:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | The worst that could happen is that if this apartment hunt goes bust, we'll pay what they're saying now. | Oct 05 07:06 |
schestowitz | or you could offer to do some chores around the place | Oct 05 07:07 |
schestowitz | to save them money | Oct 05 07:07 |
schestowitz | like being on call for incidents | Oct 05 07:07 |
schestowitz | like unruly behaviour/noise | Oct 05 07:07 |
DaemonFC[m] | I mean, we could pay it, it's not terribly steep for what the motel situation is like in the area. | Oct 05 07:08 |
DaemonFC[m] | But I wouldn't want to do it for long. | Oct 05 07:08 |
DaemonFC[m] | The new rate comes out to 37% of our net income for housing, utilities, wifi, cable TV, etc. | Oct 05 07:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | I hear 30% of gross is what to aim for | Oct 05 07:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | So we're probably somewhere in the neighborhood. Doing better than some, I guess. | Oct 05 07:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | I hear about people paying half. 30% is almost a fantasy document these days. | Oct 05 07:12 |
DaemonFC[m] | I'd say half your income for rent is at crisis levels, honestly, in most people's situations. | Oct 05 07:14 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: A federal judge put an injunction on Trump's new immigration fee hikes and another one put an injunction on his entire executive order stopping most forms of immigration. | Oct 05 07:15 |
DaemonFC[m] | Whether it lasts is anyone's guess, but a 47% hike on the fee to apply to become a citizen. Double the fee for a status adjustment to Green Card status... | Oct 05 07:16 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's obvious what these are really designed to do. They're designed not to fund USCIS, but to turn a profit off immigrants and probably create a slush fund for ICE. | Oct 05 07:16 |
DaemonFC[m] | They're also designed to add trouble for low and middle income families so that immigration benefits are out of reach to them. | Oct 05 07:17 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's the second part of that after the new public charge rule. | Oct 05 07:17 |

scientes | I realized that the age verification thing on YouTUbe is a much bigger deal that when I was young and would get around it (and there use to be a bug where you could embed those videos) | Oct 05 15:43 |
scientes | because it is MUCH harder to get a google account these days | Oct 05 15:43 |
scientes | you basically need to buy a sim card to get a google account | Oct 05 15:43 |

Cha3kyung | cool story: Firefox did remove TLS 1.1 then they BACKDOORED it back on using their "normandy" backdoor when they realized it cased all kinds of things to fail. The next release had it enabled. | Oct 05 22:49 |
