I’m not above using whatever is available, but the correct answer is fork.

Isn’t that the truth?

We could do it the ethical way, but let’s spend twice as much effort trying to cheat.

I agree. Throw in the influx of gambling apps and the commercials that come with them, and what was once a den of degeneracy has become a trending hobby.

And this is coming from someone who pays a lot of online poker (for fake money) and enjoys occasional trips to the casino. I just don’t bring more than I can afford to lose and I walk in assuming I won’t bring any of it home.

What if you rotate the head phones so the band is at the top?

We were rowdy kids.

I haven’t broken many bones, but every bone I’ve broken wasn’t one of mine.

Strange. Why is everyone posting all of my plans for the next 5 years?

Those are the same movie, but one has no land and the other has no water.

Back in my day, trampolines didn’t come with walls. You just flew off the side, or got your legs jammed between the springs. Bah! Kids today!

Cuz if everyone’s doing it, it won’t be cool anymore, man.

Too bad you didn’t read this post some time ago. Would have saved you a lot of trouble and fires.

Faith, Family, Fascism.

Depends on why you’re starting the fire.

I hear you. A lot of times my ideas are just a “vibe”, and starting is the hardest part. I haven’t used AI much at all, but I can see how having a prompt to get you started can get the creative ball rolling.

Try asking in a post on Asklemmy.

EDIT: Now that I’m reading it, I realize there are way too many ways to hear this. I meant it as a joke answer to the question suggesting that they’ve already done what they needed to do, and now I’m sure it’s even more hilarious now that I explained it. Oh well.

I thought the same thing, but I decided to see it through, and was very happy with the lack of shenanigans.

Bamboo is right, you could do it all for the price of a stamp if you grabbed the paper forms and filled them out, but you risk missing deductions that you don’t know to look for, or making an error that gets you on legal trouble.

Taxes were easy when I was a young broke adult, and I would do them myself on paper, but once I started owning things and having kids, the extra refund money that a professional or software would find was worth more than the cost to get their help.

I think it was $15.99 to file the state taxes. There are some extra services like you mentioned that you can sign up for, but you can ignore them. In the past Turbo would say Free file, but then interrupt you “looks like you have dependents, that’s going to cost you $20, oh no, you have stocks? Another $20 to file. Kids in college? That’s another $20.”

None of that this year! Already got my refund back too, so it’s just as quick as Turbo usually was.

No. Arguably Amazing is a constant in this equation. Revenue and expenses are the variables.
