Suggested gratuity is calculated after taxes and before discounts.
If you add back in the comped appetizer, the math maths. Not saying I agree with the practice, but it's not fraud. They're suggesting you tip based off what you received not what you're paying per se.
“There are currently 14 identified methodologies that have been recognized through grant writing and grant submissions by the Department of Transportation,” Rosenthal explained. “13 of those solutions do not require any spectrum change whatsoever from the FCC.”
Tangentially related to your question, Ed from Low Level has really good reverse engineering content that might pique your interest as well as a series of developer courses.
Good luck, I mean it. Caring and seeking to understand is a core first step. I'm not sure I have any sage advise but one thing that stood out to me is needing to quit "forever". That's a really big commitment. A lot of us are able to chain together single days that add up to bigger numbers. Forever is a long time, but a day is doable. Finding positive connections is a big deal and will help them on their journey. It's tough to find good ones, but they exist.
I'm this person and I often get misunderstood. I can be the center of a room and I'm loud not quiet. People attribute this with being an extrovert. I am absolutely not, I am an introvert. It's draining for me to be front and center but I don't mind doing it. I recharge by being alone. I have to explain this to folks often.
In my mind, it's a best of both worlds being able to do both. But the introvert/extrovert is about how you gain energy, not whether you are shy or center of attention.
Each morning I commit to myself that I will not drink today. Committing for a month or a year or the rest of my life is a really big commitment. But committing for a day is doable. Using this strategy, I've chained together over 1000 sober days in a row and that number just snuck up on me because I simply track today.
When I feel the urge to drink I "play the tape forward". There's a lot you can read on this subject, but for me it reminds me of why I chose to stop in the first place. That drinking doesn't solve any of my problems and if anything, it makes them more difficult for me to deal with.
The app the study used is Healthy Minds. I downloaded it this morning to give it a shot. Seems better than other guided meditation or breathing apps I've tried, is free, and has a learning path sorta like DuoLingo which makes it gamified for my brain. Gonna try to do at least one activity per day and see how it works.

Prayers for me but not for thee.
I attempted to update Nextcloud and failed spectacularly. Need to rebuild our family calendars now.

I read through the Penpal creepypastas. Gave off some really unsettling vibes that will stick with me.
They changed it a few years back to default to the Lifecycle fund which matches your retirement date.
Two strategies I employ that work for me:

It's been a long time but I remember it being something like 18-24 months. Not a short ordeal.
