I skimmed through it now to find anything relevant to the CURRENT discussion, and am trying to understand: are we trying to say 24 minutes after Shkia Amitis? Wouldn't that just add 1.5 degrees to whatever we figured out previously, making all of the options on Chabad.org inaccurate?
What's the focus, the minutes, or degrees?

Degrees is a translation of what the AR writes in minutes בארץ ישראל בימים השווים.

The explanation of calculating שעות זמניות based on שקיעה האמיתית (and do I presume that there's a similar differece in regards to הנץ החמה?) explains a question I had since the switch to Standard Time this year:

Apparently some Android App has a different סוף זמן קריאת שמע for the Alter Rebbe and the GRA. This was something I hadn't heard of or seen before, and was trying to understand/find a source.

My understanding is the different zmanim of tzeis is based off, if we calculate using shkia amitis or shkia haniris. (though then there would only be 2 options)

Thanks for posting. Very informative, including a link to SB Levin's kuntres.

SBL seems to campaign for a universal 6.833 degree zman to be used in Chabad. I can't say that I am convinced by his argument. As far as I can recall he wasn't saying that 20 years ago and was davening maariv with minyanim around 5.9 degrees after Shkia (a Palm app was popular back then and one could enter any degrees they wanted).

I am moving to Texas. In order to prove my domicile, I will need a utility bill.
The thing is that I will not be having any utilities.
What is the cheapest option for paying a utility?

TIA

Why not? You're living off the grid, or just in an apartment where all utilities are included?
