  • Ah, I must have missed Fairly Odd Parents on the list.

    And yes, Dan Harmon was involved in Strange Planet. I’m sad that as a second season is unlikely, but I think the show does a good job about talking about everyday life. Somewhat similar in vibes to Bob’s burgers, but I think more approachable and able to do more as the show only occasionally focuses on the reocurring characters.

    If you’re looking for more Adult cartoons, I’ve got a slew of them. One that bridges the gap a little bit is Young Justice (more of a teen/young adult superhero show).


  • Here’s my suggestions:

    Western Animation:

    • Summer Camp Island - It can feel a little childish at times, but definitely a good show.
    • Fairly Odd Parents - Like SpongeBob you probably don’t need all the seasons, but the first few are great.
    • Static Shock
    • Kiff

    Anime (since you had some). Tried to pick accessible ones that don’t have 100s of episodes:

    • My Hero Academia
    • One punch man
    • Mob Pyscho 100

    Adultish Cartoons. All of these should be fine for most ages and seem to fit in with your other shows:

    • Bob’s Burgers
    • Close Enough (same people who did Regular Show)
    • Strange Planet
    • Central Park (same people as Bobs Burgers)
    • Final Space

    Definitely have some more recommendations though if you like any of these.









  • Not the person you asked, but our system was around $20k for about 11 kWh setup for rooftop solar. Since Trump removed personal incentives for ownership we did a Lease to Own which helped shave $6k off the project (basically you “lease” the panels for 6 years then take over ownership).

    The only potential longterm downside from my perspective is that while it produces about as much energy we use in a year, we’re definitely not energy independent with the setup. We overproduce in the summer and underproduce in the winter, so even with a battery we would still be reliant on the grid. But our electric is typically over $100/month and with our states grid setup, we can basically zero that out.







  • So to play the devils advocate, this really comes down to:

    • Are these internal people or contractors
    • Are they looking to test out a Workflow or implement small automations

    If they’re contractors, always be suspicious. If they’re internal, it sounds like they may want a server so it’s a one off cost to setup some work flows. You can burn through hundreds to thousands of dollars per month using LLM APIs, but if you self host you’ve basically got a fixed cost.

    If they’re just looking to create some work flows that crawl the data dumps and give some insights, this approach could work. Although, as others mentioned, the hardware they’re talking about would be somewhat limited. Small LLMs can be quite functional, but this server might not be a long term fix if the automations they set up gain traction.



  • You do realize they could be campaigning on these things. Making noise, drawing more attention to Trumps policy failures.

    Maybe it’s just the reporting of it, but the only person I actively heard making a big stink within the party was David Hogg. The party had a big issue with his approach that they used a technicality to remove him from his position in the party.
