Reasonable conclusion. Without an overhang and gutters it seems like more rain and snow would run off the side of the building than there would be otherwise, keeping the wood wet for longer. But, on the other hand, the green roof might have

I completely understand that it’s a huge amount of work. But v6 has been around for 20 years. Spread across decades the work becomes a much smaller lift.

I came here looking for a comment like this. A fireplace partially exposed to the exterior (as is common nowadays) is essentially entirely decorative and can actually be a net negative in terms of heating the space. seeing that made me ques

I got an Amplifi Alien recently. They are expensive!!! but it has been rock solid and makes full use of my gigabit uplink. I disabled all the cloud stuff so no issues there. I wanted something fast and reliable that I wouldn’t ever have to

Don't use zipties as much as possible. A roll of velcro cable ties cut to length is much easier to handle and reconfigure.

But by printing money they'd wipe out (or at least reduce) the real value of their peoples' savings - basically all those bonds the Japanese people bought. The consequences would be borne by their own people, not some foreign banks. This

Take the $330k house, sell it for $270k, and go pay cash for another house in a different neighborhood where you're more welcome. EDIT: and where the tax rate/appraised value is such that you can continue to afford it.
