  • It is often repeated on various “build up your wealth” guides as the “1% rule”. here is a random link I found by searching, but there are many others, that directly states “The 1% rule says: monthly rent should be at least 1% of purchase price. On a $200,000 property, you’d want monthly rent of $2,000+.”

    We clearly head different things about “landlording”. My knowledge of landlording is mostly from online references suggesting how to do it well, and the remaining if horror stories from associates who didn’t do any research.




  • Great send up of Swap!

    Swap is great though. And to point out again that there are ratings on quality SSDs for the lifetime writes. Pull up the data sheet and look for “DWPD”, which is “Disk Writes Per Day”. Typical numbers for good swap drives are 1 and 3. If DWPD is not listed, then plan for frequent drive failures if using heavy, heavy swap (like for ZFS swap drives (Yes, these are different from a OS swap partition)).

    Anyway, I just wanted to point out the DWPD statistic.















  • Aurora Store, a way to access Google Play’s Store (explanation likely slightly wrong), has a filter for “free” and “advertisement free”. Do a search for “open source games”, add those filters and then check the web pages for any games that look interesting. Similar filters do not appear in the official Google Play Store.
