Home renovation - what's everyone paying nowadays? - Lemmy.World
I’m going to eventually need to hire a contractor to fully renovate a bathroom,
kitchen, and get a detached garage built. I know renovation costs have been
pretty high last few years…they may come down this year or not - either way
these projects eventually need to get done and I’m too limited on free time for
DIY. Anyone have any recent experiences with hiring a contractor for a home
renovation project? Did it turn out well? How much did it cost? Anyone to
use/avoid?

Just curious to see if any of you out there have been observing any trends that
might lead to new motorcycle legislation - for better or worse. I noticed that
for 2024 Nebraska surprisingly repealed their motorcycle helmet law making it
optional for wear. Definitely raised an eyebrow as they still criminalize lane
splitting. I try to stay on the optimistic side for lane filtering eventually
passing here in Virginia but seeing how we are one of only two states where
radar detectors are illegal, I think it’s fair to say we may just stay in stasis
for a while. Anyone else optimistic or pessimistic on new moto laws for this
year?

…or nieces or nephews, etc. I’m having these questions come up and I’m torn on
this. On one hand my experience has been like no other- got a chance to see and
do so many things, forged the best friendships, housing/education/medical
benefits through the VA afterwards. But those cons - the higher odds for
experiencing abuse, witnessing or performing horrifying things, etc…all the
stuff that comes with lifelong damage… What’s everyone’s take on this? Would you
recommend the military for your kids?
Virginia and Mississippi- the only 2 states with radar detector bans

WHY??? Had a radar detector in other states I’ve lived in and think this made me
an overall more mindful driver about speeding. There’s also evidence that the
ban of these devices have no impact on speeding in general. More arguments in
the link… What’s everyone’s thoughts on this? Are Virginia and Mississippi the
two states that got it right?
