Honestly, I’d like to double mine (to about $400-500k AUD pa) and only work 40% meaning I’d be on about 175-ish… and it’d be fine. Sadly I can’t see it happening any time soon.
Edit: I know I’m doing well, but I find work super draining and would love to work part-time.
The one I’m on is fine. I dont need more money to be happy. Safety and security matters a shitload more than material stuff, and unfortunately money doesnt guarantee those without a bunch of other lifestyle compromises
If you’re not afraid of some doing some configurations, then you might want to check out Home Assistant. I got completely rid of my Hue bridge and am using a Raspberry Pi with HA and a ZigBee Dongle instead (there are also other setup options, and you can also still use your Hue bridge instead of a Dongle to control the lights). Wouldn’t go back, it’s so much more versatile and cleaner to use.
Then find a blueprint (e.g. like this one), or create an automation from scratch for your individual needs.
I have one old Philips whatever they were called lamps that I can’t connect to home assistant. The rest I moved away from the bridge. I think I’ll just let go of that lamp.
They’re free unless you want a “certificate”, which has no practical value and is mostly useful if you want to motivate yourself a bit more and want to support their business model.
Go browse Coursera and edX and learn to your heart’s content.
Also, if you’re coding, watch recordings of conferences about your programming language, e.g. CppCon/C++Now/CppNorth for C++, PyCon/PyData for Python etc…
It’s not “unattractive”, but I know belly attraction is uncommon, especially as a straight woman, especially an asexual one. It’s more like one of those things where it’s less entirely a turn-on and more like a “cute” thing, but there’s nothing else about a guy I would look for when it comes to their physical properties.
Also, not speaking for me, but a friend of mine used to really have it in for people with speech impediments, even though the person he ended up with doesn’t have one. He says it has an air of innocence and that “accents are overrated if nobody is going to appreciate things like lisps”, but it’s like watching Brock.
Internet Archive - Very useful for general usage internet but not for specific needs (check fmhy).
Have I Been Pwned? - Periodically use this to check whether your email/online presence is compromised or not.
Bitwarden (or if you want to self-host it use Vaultwarden) - Personally I used this password management so I can keep my pass and you can auto generate passwords with custom parameters if needed.
Curated OSINT resources - You want to ID someone online? this resources can help you to do so, though you also need to understand the basics. It may not work if person you’re looking for does not have a much online presence.
