I have used GNUCash for maybe a decade (sounds impossible to me) but it's actually difficult to get much out of it for all the data one puts in. I'm in the XML data store I think, so maybe the SQL data implementation is better.

The graphs are ok and correctly setting up sub accounts as virtual envelopes within your normal account for your current account allows you to replicate the buckets/envelopes/spaces in, say, Starling bank (UK bank which sells its software to other banks as hussle).

I'm looking to set up something like Actual Budget (server) going forward.

People still use Cron?

Use systemd timers which are very easy to configure.

My ex wife. Imagine a Karen. Now imagine she's a solicitor who believes she is the law - no, not the police/a police officer, literally the law .. statute .. Acts.

That went as you might imagine it did.

Starting every sentence with "So". "So" being the way to indicate the beginning of a sentence.

[UK] I carry phone and keys. I pay for everything with my phone. Twerking on street corners as a Gen X for cash isn't profitable anymore.

If I know I need ID, eg. Costco, I have my old fashioned wallet in my jacket pocket. I keep meaning to set up the Costco ID on my phone. Doesn't happen.

The number of times I open or reach for my wallet is maybe twice a month. Frigging barber still wants to be paid in cash, and all the 20th century banks and their ATMs are closing .. [so now they have 20th century tech and no way to interact efficiently with the public. Haha!].

I'm very increasingly anarchist as I get into my sixth decade - UK 2020s feels like 1970s again so screw the useless thieving politicians - so I should be actively pro-cash but I'm actually more pro-crypto pro-barter (especially pro barter) in the real world. Long ago l learned that if I have physical cash, I piss it up the wall, but I'm careful with credit card cash. No idea why. I never have more than £30 in notes on me; that's enough money to buy a Costa coffee for you yanks.

Sadly, that means I can't give cash to the odd homeless. Not too many homeless with contactless readers. Maybe that'll be rabbit-in-headlights Kier's big thing: contactless readers for the destitute veterans that the armed services and government abandoned (I came of age around Falkland conflict).

Internally. Without noticing. Or any discomfort.

Privacy.

Ownership. (not quasi ownership like 'buying' a HP inkjet printer)

The end of 2023.

The detailed write-up was just that. Very good.

Looking forward to it going gold (do people still say that?!)

.. And that's why average men and women got the vote in (UK) Representation of People Act 1918.

You'll find it much easier to bathe in water. Bathing cats in fleas is counterproductive.
