[Please boost for reach.]
We have $7.57 *total*.
I have an appointment with a new doctor at 2pm (about 2 hours from now) to try and get these health issues sorted so I can get back to work. There is probably going to be a $20 copay. We will also need gas to get there.
I'm trying not to even think about dinner tonight. And I'm pretty much resigned that we will lose our car on the 8th. đ
I could really use some help, y'all. I'm starting to panic.

RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:jbvneâŚ
Good rule... My home server (besides being a file & backup server) does run Linkding, FreshRSS, Jellyfin, Focalboard, Kuma Uptime, Forgejo, Dokuwiki, and Homebox.
In an ideal world I have all of those running on *both* servers, but I am not there yet.
None are 100% "mission critical" but if things broke I'd try to get them back up and running within a day or two in most cases.
@rasterweb Yeah, mine is usually only down for a few hours at most too but I figure that if I'm on vacation, in the hospital, or just busy, I don't want anything too important to go down.
You bring up an interesting idea. I should throw Uptime Kuma on a second machine that has access to that server.
What's causing downtime?
Since I got both of my servers on a UPS I've seen no downtime. We did have a brownout today, lasted just a few seconds, but our power is pretty reliable.
I reboot for updates but that takes a few minutes at the most.

Antique store find of the week: $3
This sweet piece adorned with butterflies was balled up and in a basket. $3. It needs to be pinned out and a little spray starch, I think. But otherwise in lovey shape. The way the tallies are on the surface of the butterflies is clever--it is only attached at the top and bottom, not part of the butterfly wing half stitch.
Project update: it was pinned out, starched, ironed, and is now attached to my new bag for the lace convention.
I was trying to find a spot to get a photo of it, and it made me laugh how well it matched the cover of Whiting's "Lace Guide for Makers and collectors".

iBook G3 "Clamshell" Tangerine (1999)
Unfortunately I don't have a PSU yet, but I've decided to strip it down and check the DC In board as it's a common failure point.
The iBook uses 24v, but laptops generally have a really good tolerance on input voltages in general. This USB-C PD puts out 20.2v, so fingers crossed it's enough.
