or if any of y'all wanna chat, I got heeeeellllla time on my hands

here because aliens tried to bum fuck me (no questions about got why im in here allowed)

I can easily find things like rent, internet, insurance prices, but how do I find things like grocery prices? I honestly don't even know what an average grocery list might look like, are there resources to help with this? my gf and I are looking into moving out, and assuming a monthly income of ~4400 USD and rent being 500 USD, I think we should be okay, but I need to be 100% that we won't be barely scraping by or anything. thank you everyone

I'm putting away $300 a month, my question is where to put it. savings account has basically 0 interest, there are HYSA (high yield savings account) that would give me 3-5% apy, or I already have some money in stocks that have grown consistently 25% over the last year (index funds only)

what would you guys recommend? I'm looking to buy it probably 3 years from now. that way either I've got a fat down payment or I can just buy it cash

thanks

Ive usually bought champion ($35 ususally) and theyre decent, but theres gotta be other stuff out there. Im looking at as colour right now, because i got a hoodie at a festival from them and its super nice, but theyre $50 each unless you buy in bulk

what brands are out there that wont be a scratchy mess on the inside in one year?

I just setup a minecraft server on an old laptop, but to make it acessible i needed to open up a port. Currently, these are the ufw rules i have. when my friends want to connect, i will have them find their public ip and ill whilelist only them. is this secure enough? thanks

`Status: active

22/tcp ALLOW Anywhere Anywhere ALLOW my.pcs.local.ip`

also, minecraft is installed under a separate user, without root privlege

need to share my location with some people, are there any services that respect privacy? paid is alright as long as im the only one who has to pay (like if i can be a paid user but free users can view my location)

just dont wanna use google maps but if thats all there is then whatever

already checked out owntracks and zood, neither worked for me (needs to be cross platform)

EDIT: in response the responses, no self hosting, and has to be just ready to install, no buildning it yourself

im willing to sacrifice privacy here over ease of use, just hope i dont have to
