    But then you just get exercise and how-to-eat-right advice from ChatGPT anyway.

    At least he's still talking about federal debts and deficits.

    I think they’re famous for sets of nesting glass bowls too. I have such a set, but they’re knockoffs because I didn’t know any better at the time.

    I think Venice switched to a different form of government a long time ago.

    @AndyD The one you chose is beautiful, Grade II as you know, and more manageable I would imagine than your 1st link. The 1st link is mind boggling. Grade I and that price?! I'll take the Georgian mansion in your other post. I love them as I'm sure you've noticed by now.

    Thanks for the tips, @Rontuner . I think the iron I bought is faulty. It would melt a little solder and then completely fail to melt any more, even with the solder pressed against the iron.

    @Daniel Not just in the US. Canada has a similar housing crisis. I bought our house in 2011 for $150,000. The (conservative) estimated value today is $450,000. Nothing about our neighbourhood has changed. No new services or anything that would have increased the property value. My kid and his girlfriend pay $2400 a month to rent a small two bedroom apartment in a nearby small city/large town. That’s almost twice my mortgage payment, yet even if they could save up enough for a down payment (while also paying that ridiculous amount in rent), they would never be approved for a mortgage because paying rent does nothing for your credit score.
