D or G

D gets you most of Middle Eastern, all of India, most of China, all of South Asia, most of Australia, most of Japan. Huge variety, extremely high number of options, lots of spice availability, lots of meat and nonmeat protein options.

G mostly because of Mexico alone. I’ve traveled there a bunch recently and the food game is insane. You also get the US South (which does have a lot of great food outside of deep fried everything), Spain, Portugal, and Morocco.

C gets an honorable mention mostly because of southeast Europe. That whole area has been a crossroads for a very long time.

I actually use it for creating thumbnails for a sorta niche application. The resulting files are quite small and the quality is fine. I do remember it being a pain in the ass to deal with ~10 years ago.

I’m at the Kali Linux peak but at least I’m smart enough to know that I don’t have the capability to do the social engineering aspect so I’m just gonna backtrack to Ubuntu and tie myself to the terminal and actually learn Linux.

The bad take I was referring to was OP claiming the mortgage payment would be lower than the rent payment. In the US this is almost never the case. Edit: we have fixed rate mortgages in the US. My payment will only go up because of taxes or insurance.

It isn’t just that, a ton of subs are complete garbage now. Dumb meme? 15k upvotes.

Fudging the numbers a bit, but let’s say I’m paying $3000/mo for a mortgage. Brokers tell me I can afford $10,000/mo.

I cannot afford $10,000/mo.

Mortgage payments are almost never lower than rent unless you are seriously downgrading

Bad take. In my situation it went from us paying $1900 in rent to paying $4500 in mortgage.
