2023.06.05 05:28 truthsmiles Circuit to turn on an LED after “a long time”?
Problem definition:
I have an ammonia refrigerator in my RV that uses a 120V electric heating strip as a “compressor”, and I want to be alerted when it’s been running for a long time without cycling off.
During normal operation, the heat strip may be on for an hour at a time, or maybe even six hours if I’ve just put a warm case of soda in it.
But over time (months) the ammonia-water solution will slowly separate and the heat strip will stay on longer and longer, and finally stay on constantly to attempt to satisfy the thermostat.
Eventually once I notice the ice cream is melting I know it’s time to take action, which is essentially “stirring” the solution. This could be accomplished by moving the RV, or emptying and physically flipping the fridge upside down for a minute.
Once stirred, the fridge will function well for another 3, 6, or 9 months without trouble.
It bothers me that (I’m guessing) for a month or more before the ice cream melts, the thing is just running constantly or near constantly, just barely keeping up, and I’d love to know when it starts working overtime so I can intervene sooner.
What I would like:
Some kind of circuit that will sense when 120 V is being applied to the heater (it can be powered this way too), and will light up an LED when it’s been on for “a long time”.
I know “a long time” is frustratingly ambiguous, but I’m being intentionally imprecise. If I say 24 hours exactly, I know that will require some kind of IC chip with a clock, and I don’t think that level of sophistication is required here (nor do I want to force those kinds of answers). If there is some kind of resistocapacitor combination that will take somewhere between 8 hours and 8 days to “charge up” and turn on a light, that’s good enough for me. It doesn’t even need to be consistent.
For context, the best solution I’ve come up with that I think I could implement right now on my own is to just connect an LED that always lights up when the heater is on, and it’s on me to notice whether and how often it turns off.
Another possibly “off the shelf” solution might be to power a small digital clock/timer with the heat strip circuit and I can randomly look at it. If I see it’s counted up to 12 hours, I know it’s time for a stir. But honestly figuring out how to “hack” a clock in that way seems intimidating.
So, if there’s some kind of “slow to react” circuit I could rig up, maybe even with a variable resistor for “tuning”, I’d love to know! I don’t even expect a complete design - if you know what such a circuit would even be called I’m happy to do my own research and try cobbling something together myself.
Of course, I’m also 100% open to other solutions/ideas you may have :)
Thanks in advance for sharing your wisdom!

2023.06.05 04:04 pickledeggmanwalrus Too much moisture in my grain spawn jar?
 | First timer….. submitted by pickledeggmanwalrus to mycology [link] [comments] As you can see there is a very small amount of water in the bottom of the jar. I can think of a couple things I probably did wrong. I let the corn soak for over 24 hours and then I boiled them for like 20 minutes and let them drain in the colander for 30+ minutes. I then poured the corn onto paper towels and lightly padded dry and then put into jars and pressure cooked for 90 mins at 15 psi. I placed tinfoil on top of the lid with inject port and filter and zip tied it down because I couldn’t find rubber bands (suspected problem #1) and after I pressure cooked them I was sort of in a hurry to leave (using someone else’s PC) and I let it get down to 5 PSI naturally and released the remaining pressure (suspected problem #2). I figure I should have let the pressure naturally reduce to 0 and cool down the room temp before ever removing the jars…. Can someone give me some insight here? Also, is there anyway I can salvage this? I have a still air box so I could attempt to create a sterile environment and dry off the corn with a sterilized cloth but I realize I’m probably asking for contam doing that. For now I put the jar in the fridge hoping that maybe the cold will cause the corn to absorb the excess moisture but I realize I’m reaching for straws with that. |
2023.06.05 04:03 HercHuntsdirty Should I Text Her After Breakup (6 Years Together) To Show How Much I Value Fixing What We Had?
TL;DR AT BOTTOM
Never thought I’d be bringing this to Reddit, but here I am!
I (26M) was recently broken up with by my (24F) girlfriend of 6 years right after opening up to her about how I had been struggling a lot mentally recently. That's not necessarily the cause, but it happens to be a terrible coincidence.
Backstory:
About 10 weeks ago I had a very long night out and woke up extremely hungover. My brother met up with me that night in our parents car and ended up staying with us for a few drinks, so evidently he left the car.
Of course, I woke up and had a boatload of caffeine so I was already on edge a little bit. My brother was still asleep, so my mom asked me if I could quickly drive my dad to the car so he could take it home. No problem, I hopped in my car and drove there with my dad.
On the way home, completely unprovoked and no anxiety prior, I had an insane panic attack. I’ve never experienced anything like it before. I think I’ve only had one panic attack in my life, and for some reason it left me with a very small amount of social anxiety. During this attack, my hands and feet were completely numb and sweating. At first, I had literally no idea what was going on - I thought it was a legitimate health issue. I ended up taking a bit to drive home, but I made it.
Since then, I've just had heightened anxiety. I've had one other panic attack in the past and I eventually got over the lingering anxiety, so I knew it wasn't permanent.
Mental Health Backstory on her end:
To preface this, we both have anxiety/depression in our genetics unfortunately. In fact, her mom spent some time in the hospital when they were young because of how bad it got.
She also apparently had a ton of anxiety from work recently (she's a nurse, I'm in tech).
On my mothers side of the family, my mom, grandma and great grandma have struggled with anxiety their entire lives, some of them taking antidepressants.
Not fun genes for either of us to have, but we persevered!
Our Relationship:
This is what has been getting to me, our relationship was very healthy. We argued probably 2-3 times per year, we spent the majority of days together - as we lived only a 5 minute drive apart. We were both fully a part of each other's families. All of the normal relationship stuff, we were completely engulfed in it. We had also been looking at engagement rings for a bit and ALWAYS talked about our life together.
When I was about 19 before we were together, I used to drunkenly talk about her all of the time to my friends saying "if she ever gets out of the relationship with her boyfriend (at that time) she's the one I'm going for". When I was graduating high school, I went into her class on yearbook day, grabbed her yearbook and wrote my number in it. Long story short, she ended up single and within a month of that happening, we were together.
The "problems" we had over the years that were semi-recurring:
I didn't suggest enough of our plans. I explained to her a number of times that I'd happily go anywhere, I just don't tend to suggest ideas because sometimes she wanted to, other times she didn't. I've lived by the motto "happy wife, happy life" in that relationship, so I tended to go along with whatever she suggested.
We didn't take enough pictures together. I don't really like being in too many pictures and that bothered her.
We didn't travel together enough. This goes back to the anxiety, I hate flying and haven't done it in almost a decade. However, I have an appointment with my doctor in early July where I'm requesting some "emergencies only" anxiety medication to use for that exact scenario. Note - she went on a number of trips over the years with her closest friends. Furthermore, we had done weekend getaways via car together but those apparently don't count. To add, her friends are hopping on planes at least once per month to go somewhere, I think comparison became the thief of joy here.
I didn't tell her I loved her enough or hug her enough. This one is hard for me because I felt like I definitely told her I loved her a lot. She used to occasionally say "do you even love me", semi-joking but also serious, and I always told her of course I did and even though I may not say it a number of times a day, of course I do. I also did a TON of things for her to show how much I cared (ie. she very rarely had to make a lunch for work, I cooked for her almost every day and we don't even live together) The hugging thing is a bit different, as she's always been extremely affectionate and I never really have been. I truly think it comes down to how I was raised, affection just wasn't a huge part of my childhood. (note, that's not a problem for me or anything, I had incredible family/parents, it just wasn't as prominent as it was in her childhood)
I cared a lot about money and how we could set ourselves up to move out. She had taken 5 trips (two of them by train, three by plane) with her friends in the past year and after the 5th one I asked if she planned on slowing down so she could focus on tackling her student debt and so we could start saving to move out, have a wedding etc. Specifically, I wanted us to be in the position where we weren't renting a home, ESPECIALLY given how much money we were making combined. This part kind of confused me because she was the first one to suggest moving out, but when it came time to adjusting the lifestyle to prepare for it, she didn't like the idea. But, I did use it as a crutch for my anxiety to get out of things sometimes and I did open up to her about that. As an example though, I still went with her to the Gucci store and helped her pick out a very expensive purse to celebrate getting her first real nursing job after graduating. I don't feel that I cared about money (especially given the stage we were in in our lives) more than any of my buddies with girlfriends. I wanted us to be set up well for the coming stages of our lives; they were fast approaching. Furthermore, her friends are catching a plane every weekend and are living with their parents but pay cheque to pay cheque with no prospects of ever leaving unless it's renting
The Situation:
About 7-ish weeks ago, a few weeks after my panic attack, my girlfriend was very adamant that we needed to book a trip together. She said we hadn't been on a "real" trip during our relationship (by real, she means getting on a plane). We were sitting down in her bed on my laptop looking at destinations and flights, but I was incredibly anxious about the whole thing. As we were about to book, I broke down and was fully vulnerable to her for one of the first times in the 6 year relationship. I said that I just don't see myself getting onto a plane right now without some kind of medication to calm me down. On top of that, it would stress me out financially a bit, as I'm a full-time masters student and working full time. Plus, it was during my one-week semester break, so I honestly just wanted to relax.
From that day on, our relationship started going downhill. She said she felt extremely disappointed by the whole situation and she couldn't shake the feeling. We then started only hanging out maybe once per week and it was very bland when we did. A couple weeks after that incident, I slept over at her house and I could tell she was genuinely just not happy at that time.
Brief backstory - despite being 26, my mom still gives me a ton of flack if I sleep at her house. It was rare that I got away with it. But, I did it that night anyway because she always asked me to sleep over but I rarely wanted to have to deal with my mom. I thought it would help show her I'm really trying to get better. She also invited me over the following evening and I obviously went.
After that day, I don't think we saw each other for about 2 weeks. I texted her on a Friday evening and said I just don't feel like she wants to be with me anymore. She picked me up so we could talk, and explained that she felt very disappointed about how we were so close to booking the trip and ended up not doing it. She said she needed a break and I was fine with it, I understood where she was coming from.
During this time, I started seeing a therapist. I found one online who was one of the highest rated in my province and was also extremely experienced in marital/pre-marital counselling so I could tell her about the relationship issues I was having along with my anxiety.
Fast forward about 2 more weeks (last weekend) she texted me saying she was ready to talk and picked me up. She said it's probably best if we just end the relationship for the time being. She explained that she felt she had been disappointed a few times over the years and was bottling a lot of things up. She said she needed time to "find herself again" and didn't know if we would get back together at all in the future or not. Then, we sat there talking in her car for another 30 minutes like things were normal so it really threw me off.
I ended up texting her the next day and asked if I could pick her up because I was confused from the night prior since we talked so normally after the breakup conversation. We ended up talking again, sharing some tears and what not, but I kind of understood why she felt she needed to be alone for a bit, even though she didn't know if we would get back together or not. She said that people do this all of the time and sometimes they come back stronger, but if it was meant to be then we'll get back together. I also told her about how much help I'm getting and how I'm setting a goal to take a vacation when I finish my masters in November. She was noticeably happy and asked a lot about how I was talking to my therapist about improving as a person and a (what I thought was soon to be) fiancé. She asked for all of the details about what we talked about in regards to our relationship and was very happy that I was putting that much effort in.
A couple days ago is when she deleted are photos together, but it came right after she posted an Instagram story while out with a friend who has no stability whatsoever. This friend has been on and off with the same guy (who treats her terribly) for as long as we were together. Not to mention, she sleeps around a ton. I can't help but feel like some of this breakup is being influenced by her friends (specifically this one) wanting her to be single like they are out of jealousy or something. Or, they want her to be flying somewhere once a month with them with no plans for the future. My girlfriend has cried to me in the past because she had been brought to places she didn't want to be because her friend wanted to go for a guy. That friend has also been binge drinking several times weekly for years. The following night, her two friends posted a story of her incredibly drunk in the back of a car with her feet out of the window I'm sure in hopes that I would see it. We're grown ass adults, I can't help but feel like that's just not a cool thing to do to your friend in general? I don't care how drunk you are, in fact I expected her to have a night out with her friends and let loose but posting someone else like that is just insanely stupid to me! To put the icing on the cake, one of my long time buddies from high school decided to go for one of her friends and I gave him substantial warnings about her. Within a year, that relationship was completely over with and she was on to the next.
Neither of us were ever the type one to have one-night stands or get around, so I'm not concerned about anything like that during the breakup. If it happens it happens, but I won't be sleeping with anyone until I've put in all of my effort to saving everything we've built. She's only ever been with me and her ex, while I've had a handful more partners before her - but I've experienced enough in my 26 years to know that there was is only one woman for me.
After all of this, I still couldn't shake the feeling that I felt I was being abandoned during the one time in my entire life I've opened up to anyone and really wanted some support. I'm also just having a hard time processing why it happened and how I can salvage it.
I've texted her once per week since the breaks & breakup happened just telling her that I loved her and wished we were going to XYZ events coming up. I also always say in the message that "You don't have to respond or even read it, I just want you to know". I'm having a hard time deciding if I should continue giving her that weekly text or not, but I really do want her to know how much I care and thought we were a dream team.
I just can't help but feel like we had "problems" that were very fixable and were very minor compared to 99% of couples. Her two best friends have had 5+ boyfriends each in the time that we were together and countless one-night stands. Every time they would break up, I'd hear a story from my girlfriend about how terribly they were treated by these guys and we talked about how lucky we are to have each other. There was no forms of jealousy or self-consciousness between us either, neither of us were bothered when we went out alone with our respective friend groups. I also never for a second worried when she travelled with her friends that she'd cheat or something.
This wraps in with why I can't process the breakup. Aside from the few things we argued about here and there (few times a year) it was an incredibly healthy relationship. I had a great relationship with her friends (despite some of the things I've said about them above) and would often times opt to go out drinking with her group over my group of buddies. I acknowledged my shortcomings as a boyfriend (ie. the affection) with my therapist and she's giving me some help with it. Am I crazy for thinking that we can easily salvage everything we’ve built over 6 years?
TL;DR - We had a very healthy relationship, never argued, no cheating, but she said I didn’t tell her I loved her enough or wasn’t affectionate enough. Said she doesn’t know if we’ll get back together or not. I’ve been texting her once a week just to say I hope she had a good weekend, to let me know if she wants to talk and that I love her. Should I continue it?

My girlfriend has cried to me in the past because she had been brought to places she didn't want to be because her friend wanted to go for a guy. That friend has also been binge drinking several times weekly for years. The following night, her two friends posted a story of her incredibly drunk in the back of a car with her feet out of the window I'm sure in hopes that I would see it. We're grown ass adults, I can't help but feel like that's just not a cool thing to do to your friend in general? I don't care how drunk you are, in fact I expected her to have a night out with her friends and let loose but posting someone else like that is just insanely stupid to me! To put the icing on the cake, one of my long time buddies from high school decided to go for one of her friends and I gave him substantial warnings about her. Within a year, that relationship was completely over with and she was on to the next.
Neither of us were ever the type one to have one-night stands or get around, so I'm not concerned about anything like that during the breakup. If it happens it happens, but I won't be sleeping with anyone until I've put in all of my effort to saving everything we've built. She's only ever been with me and her ex, while I've had a handful more partners before her - but I've experienced enough in my 26 years to know that there was is only one woman for me.
After all of this, I still couldn't shake the feeling that I felt I was being abandoned during the one time in my entire life I've opened up to anyone and really wanted some support. I'm also just having a hard time processing why it happened and how I can salvage it.
I've texted her once per week since the breaks & breakup happened just telling her that I loved her and wished we were going to XYZ events coming up. I also always say in the message that "You don't have to respond or even read it, I just want you to know". I'm having a hard time deciding if I should continue giving her that weekly text or not, but I really do want her to know how much I care and thought we were a dream team.
I just can't help but feel like we had "problems" that were very fixable and were very minor compared to 99% of couples. Her two best friends have had 5+ boyfriends each in the time that we were together and countless one-night stands. Every time they would break up, I'd hear a story from my girlfriend about how terribly they were treated by these guys and we talked about how lucky we are to have each other. There was no forms of jealousy or self-consciousness between us either, neither of us were bothered when we went out alone with our respective friend groups. I also never for a second worried when she travelled with her friends that she'd cheat or something.
This wraps in with why I can't process the breakup. Aside from the few things we argued about here and there (few times a year) it was an incredibly healthy relationship. I had a great relationship with her friends (despite some of the things I've said about them above) and would often times opt to go out drinking with her group over my group of buddies. I acknowledged my shortcomings as a boyfriend (ie. the affection) with my therapist and she's giving me some help with it. Am I crazy for thinking that we can easily salvage everything we’ve built over 6 years?
TL;DR - We had a very healthy relationship, never argued, no cheating, but she said I didn’t tell her I loved her enough or wasn’t affectionate enough. Said she doesn’t know if we’ll get back together or not. I’ve been texting her once a week just to say I hope she had a good weekend, to let me know if she wants to talk and that I love her. Should I continue it?
2023.06.05 04:01 TakenAccountName37 I'm 27M. Does having older parents (80M dad, 66F mom) hinder me from some experiences in the future?
I also have a 26 year-old brother. Our parents are divorced, but both are heavily in our lives. My dad has lived alone since the divorce (over 20 years ago) until March. His older brother who is 83 moved in with him from out-of-state due to his weakening body. Ever since then, my dad has been asking me to come to his place on most of my days off since then to "help" with something. Early on, it got annoying because the drive can be in the 50-minute range with bad traffic. I just started working full-time seven months ago. I would use my days off for "me time" like going to the library or coffee shops to concentrate and figure my life out. I even started visiting places I never visited in my area before. He doesn't bother me every week anymore. Last week, I got to go out of town, but he wants a favor this week. I'm here though to know how am I supposed to deal with this in the future. My dad is older than most dads of millennial children and I'm on the lower-end of that generation lol. My mom is another story. I want to move out of her house soon, but she has been super overprotective lately. She's about to retire and I think that she will throw a fit if I leave. She's not as old as my dad, but she is near 70. I want to explore a social life though. Over the last year, I became close with work friends and enjoyed going to their apartments or hanging out at bars with them. I never even dated or kissed a girl before. Side note: I'm in therapy now.
Do I have to accept this as my future life? I mean I want to experience a relationship like most of my friends. I have always wanted to get married and have kids. Am I not allowed to move out of state if I find a better job some day (because my parents are older)?
TL;DR: I'm 27 with an 80-year-old dad who as of late has been asking me to visit his house to help with some things since his older brother (83) has moved in. This started around the time, I started to do more social things. How do I deal with this in the future because I want to meet more friends, date, then get married some day?

2023.06.05 03:48 Cowboy_Corruption For those tanks who are hesitant about running Heroic or M+ dungeons
I've seen a lot of posts and comments from folks hesitant about running as a tank in a PUG dungeon group. I get it - there's a lot of fear about getting people pissed off at you or disappointing them. Been there/done that. There's all these abilities that take up more slots than you have fingers, plus there's the , , and buttons thrown into the mix, and it seems like screwing up your rotation is certain death. Throw in the addons and all the flashy animations and bells and whistles putting you on the verge of an epileptic seizure, and you have stress upon stress, which further degrades decision-making ability and your enjoyment of the game.
I resisted doing M+ dungeons for a couple months after 10.05.0 came out after coming back from a 7 year hiatus, but after playing for a little bit I then had an epiphany. Macros! Specifically macros I found on WoW Lazymacros. I know there are going to be quite a few people who will dunk on me for using an All-in-one macro, but frankly it's saved my sanity and allowed me to move out of my comfort zone and jump into end game content. My decision-making process is simplified because I basically have 4 buttons on my keyboard to worry about for maybe 90% of tanking. 1) Taunt, 2) All-in-one Macro, 3) Interrupt, and 4) Weapon Throw/Interrupt.
I'm not someone who delves through every bit of data and information on the game, researching spells and abilities, what timer their own, cooldowns, best use of them, etc. But knowing I only have to hit 1 button to quickly cycle through my abilities allows me to concentrate on the mobs - what spell their about to cast, who the target is, what I can do to prevent it, and tanking everything my group needs to stay off them. It's not a perfect system by any stretch of the imagination, but that's also why I have the important abilities on my bar so I can watch them. Add in Weak Auras and HeroDBC and I get an easy visual reminder of available abilities that are off cooldown and need to be cast.
This has done wonders for my confidence and willingness to tank PUGs in Heroic dungeons. In fact, it's enabled me to gear up to the point that I'm now a little under 420 ilvl, and yesterday I ran Ruby Life Pools solo on heroic. Takes a bit of time since I'm a protection warrior, but at no point did I feel like I needed to worry about dying. And in a group, what took me 30-35 minutes solo took like 10 minutes as the PUG just rampaged without stopping.
Mythic+ dungeons are a different story, but another addon - Mythic Dungeon Tools - gave me the opportunity to look at routes and be able to locate where I was, what we needed to kill, and in what order. Thus far I've only done up to, I think, Mythic+ 9 dungeons, but as I get better gear and I get better with the tools at my disposal, I feel like I'm starting to progress as a tank. And just maybe I'll be ready to take off the training wheels and get rid of the all-in-one macro for a more nuanced setup as my mind processes things faster and more efficiently.
I'm sorry if this might annoy some folks who think using an all-in-one macro is a bad habit to pick up, but if it can convince folks with tanking characters to step up then I disagree about it being wrong.

2023.06.05 03:14 Luqas_Incredible State Of The Rampage Market We Are Branching Exile
 | Morning guys Moorhuhn here... yet again submitted by Luqas_Incredible to pathofexile [link] [comments] Today I wanted to talk about the progress we made bringing down the rampage market. Before I do that, a small PSA: Do not dupe 3 divine items anymore if you do so. The increase in split beast prices over the last days make the profit noticably worse. You can still profit off of it, if you buy them via the market for 0.5-0.6 but at 0.7 upwards its hardly a viable farming strat anymore But lets talk about the interesting stuff: Have I gotten a rampage sceptre yet again? No. We sadly did not since we ripped our last 2 bases away. And all bases now are at 1 mirror+ so we need to wait a little longer for that What else did happen though? We got into the market of the following items and decreased the price of these by up to 500%:
Having all 5 nodes in front of the node you want to dupe on both bases makes the success rate noticably much better. This is due to the reduced chance of loosing the entire tree on loosing 2.1 2.2 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, or 3.4. This however limits the bases we can use to the 4.2 and 4.3 slots Crucible Tree Example for daggewand The first node is increadibly easy and quick to duplicate. Since all you need to do is unallocate the first node on the new base and only need to allocate the first node on the donor every once in a while when it lost too much exp to keep the first node, you can perma print these, as long as you have bases. I made 26 Int stacking wands in less than 30 minutes. It also allows using high level bases and ignoring the exp penalty. So where are all the dupes? On the way. However we are experiencing some severe bottlenecks in supply. Especially for bases and maps. If you want to support the project and make some decent money running braindead crucible, reveal trees on daggers, claws, and wands. We pay 40c for every single base with the right layout. (At 12+ per trade). The layout has to look like in the screenshot above for daggewand and like below for claws/bows Crucible Tree example for bow/claw Thats pretty much all I had to say for today. One last thing is left. If you want to support the cause by farming bases, atoll maps, geodes or other stuff that is needed check out our Discord. We buy all the needed supply at or above market value. If you have any questions about the project, or ideas about bases we should go for next let us know in the comments. If you have any questions about crucible trees and how to get specific results you can also ask here. Put a screenshot of the bases you are working on too so I can more easily tell what you are talking about. I will try to answer as many questions as possible as soon as I wake up. Thanks for reading and everybody who helped us so far with all kinds of different support, by farming for the supply, donating to get more bases in and more. This project is the most fun I have ever had in poe and its amazing to see how many people show appreciation for our work. Thanks to: Dexter, Stephen, Jikure, u/techytypist, u/avolkhin, u/vatinas, and likely more people I have missed here or dont know the names. Thanks Luqas/Moorhuhn |
2023.06.05 03:12 PuzzleheadBroccoli Classes can start 1 minute early.
I am in the new room. I get the Start Class Now notice. I turn it on. Its one minute before actual class time. There is a new student in there. I do introductions and ask a couple of questions and the dude is like 110% non responsive. It already feels like a disaster. I look down and the actual class timer has not even started yet. It turns in to 30 minutes of pulling teeth in a desert. And I compounded it by starting early.
I no longer start early. I wait for the bell and then click start class.

2023.06.05 02:33 Albrize Problematic sublet
I'm a student who subletted my apartment for 3 of the 4 months this summer.
I was able to get a last minute sublet from another student for 125 below rent price. Anyways skip to now, I had messaged him on May 26 and there was no response, today I messaged him twice and called him once because he is 3 days late for rent payments.
On top of that one of my roommates went up for the weekend apparently the apartment was disgusting and he's been smoking all over the apartment. He has also been using one of my roommates rooms (for storage or I don't know what, apparently his bed was unmade and used?).
I'm just a student so I don't know much about what I do to approach this. He has signed a form through my landlord and through me. The form he signed through me highlighted that the rent was due on the first of each month and he initialized it so it's already a breach of contract right?
What do I do now?

2023.06.05 02:21 TheVargTrain Played my first round in ~20 years on Friday. The bug has bit, HARD.
Sup boys, just wanted to share a fantastic experience I had the other day that's definitely set the hook.
This past weekend was my brother's bachelor party. He's played golf alongside my old man since we've been kids- both of us got lessons when we were probably 8 or 9, he stuck with golf and I didn't. Never found it to be interesting, etc., all the usual "golf is stupid and boring" tropes you want to fit in.
Cut to this past Thursday night. The bachelor party crew gets together, and starts discussing the plans for golf the next day- namely, who's playing. 12 guys total, and it's a 50/50 split of experienced guys and complete beginners/myself who hasn't picked up a club in nearly 20 years. I nearly bow out, but y'know what, fuck it, let's see what happens, right? I'm not the only beginner, I remember at least one or two things from long ago... What's the worst that can happen?
Well, if you're my wallet, the worst thing that can happen is a 12 person, 4 man best ball scramble on a short 9 hole course that can be described as nothing short of a perfect experience for a borderline first timer. I'm borrowing my brother's clubs, we're doing "First Swing Friday," so no warm-ups. A pointer or two on my stance, line up my shot, and swing.
Crushed it a whopping 150 yards with a slight draw.
Not a world beater by any stretch of the imagination, but god DAMN you wanna talk about a confidence builder?
We proceed to have an absolute blast on 18 holes. Each person in our foursome hits some fantastic shots, plenty of absolute "where the hell did that go" shanks, more than a few beers get consumed, a sunshower opens up on 14 and we play in the rain for about 20 minutes, there's a hilarious run in with another couple guys, and all in all our foursome finished a whopping +2 on the day thanks to some fabulous drives and terrible short game.
Safe to say, I'm hooked. Spent 2 hours at the range with a set of clubs I was given years ago, already looking for lessons, and I can't wait to learn more about this absolutely fantastic game.

This past weekend was my brother's bachelor party. He's played golf alongside my old man since we've been kids- both of us got lessons when we were probably 8 or 9, he stuck with golf and I didn't. Never found it to be interesting, etc., all the usual "golf is stupid and boring" tropes you want to fit in.

2023.06.05 01:41 insecurebrowsing just reaching out, venting, mental health
hey I'm new to this group and new to caregiving in general. earlier this year, for unforseen circumstances, I (26F) had to move out of my boyfriends family home, leaving him behind, to move back in with my parents. however, as gut wrenching as it was, I was already considering moving back because I couldn't stand not being there for my 69 y.o mother while my 91 (yes 91!) y.o father was needing more and more help.
a little background on my mom: ever since I was 10, she had been on and off in the hospital for a multitude of issues. she's had surgery on her stomach, back, legs, throat, nerves, knees, spine, etc. we call her the bionic woman because she is strong as all hell, and she still continued to be my mom the best she can throughout all of it.
my father, on the other hand, was much more distant. much more cold, and a narcissist. he always took and never gave and I can't really remember any bad memories with him from when mom was in the hospital, but I can't remember any good either. i just had to entertain myself while he watched tv downstairs. it was isolating. the best character I could compare him to is Tony soprano. everything is an issue and he would explode at any minor inconvenience because of years of anxiety and probably other untreated mental health issues...
he now has COPD and emphysema, congestive heart failure, bladder cancer, and honestly some other things I can't even keep up with. his hand keeps swelling. he's on forced air now. but the thing is...even the doctors said he doesn't need forced air all the time and that he needs to do things on his own and move around, which he is more than capable of doing. but he doesn't see that. all he wants is my mom to help him. no one else. she's still recovering from her sciatic nerve surgery from last year (and NOT healing). he cries and cries and cries for help and she physically and mentally can't take it. I came in to take the load off but nothing will ever satisfy him. he will play the sick puppy card and talk about how nobody likes him and how nobody wants to talk to him (and people try but he just shuts them out when they do). but the thing with him is...everything has to be on his terms. he just has no consideration for anyone else's health. he will drop a spoon and fucking scream "I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE!!!!" and my blood pressure shoots through the roof. (not exaggerating, happened multiple times through my life)
and I know some people will say "he's 91 years old!" but he's been this way since I could remember. it's just who he is. I've learned what different footsteps mean, I learned what different sounds could lead up to. if I hear a spoon drop anywhere now I will just cringe in anticipation. when I was a child I heard auditory hallucinations of him screaming my name.
another big source of my anxiety is that I have a little dog who's my world, and hes had to of dropped a dozen pills only a week into me being here...if she eats one...I would absolutely lose my mind. but thankfully he no longer does his pills or makes his breakfast, and we fetch his dessert and dinner. however, he can (and should for his sake) do most everything else !
my mom hasn't lived her life because of him. he will guilt trip and gaslight her to no end just for going out with friends, he always has. he told her shes the reason hes like this because she decided to go on a weekend trip with one of my sisters last year. he's always needed to control her and all his kids. she knows nothing about our financial situation because he refused to share it with her...even after being married 40 years.
I take xanax as needed and have been going to therapy on and off since I was 8, and I have made strides with not even needing medicinal help to help my anxiety--until I came back here. I can't work now. I had to quit my job. I was trying to make a career with my degree and all that came to a halt. I just feel like a failure, at 26, almost 27, i thought i would have some foundation by now...I thought I could be something. I want to help pay them back for my loans but here I am unemployed and just feeling worthless.
he is full time, I have no down time. even when I have down time I just anticipate him calling us for God knows what (usually for me to go upstairs and get him water or something--something he CAN do). I'm always on edge and I'm always exhausted. my body hasn't ached like this since I worked full time at a cafe and only had one 15 minute break through the whole 8 hour shift (not legal i know hahaha)
and he's still cognitive, losing memory most likely due to his heightened anxiety, but still able to hold a conversation and be as passive-aggressive as ever.
going back to my boyfriend though--he will hopefully be moving in with us later this year..once my 40 y.o sister moves out. and yeah, she rarely contributes to the situation and escapes to her boyfriends or to the store 80% of the time. my boyfriend would help and it would be a weight lifted. but I can't hope for that right now, I can't afford to hope for this to happen any time soon. it'll happen when it happens. but I can say I'm blessed to have his support from a distance.
I just want to have a life but more importantly I just want my mom to finally feel like she's living, before it's too late...
tldr; I'm goin nuts

he now has COPD and emphysema, congestive heart failure, bladder cancer, and honestly some other things I can't even keep up with. his hand keeps swelling. he's on forced air now. but the thing is...even the doctors said he doesn't need forced air all the time and that he needs to do things on his own and move around, which he is more than capable of doing. but he doesn't see that. all he wants is my mom to help him. no one else. she's still recovering from her sciatic nerve surgery from last year (and NOT healing). he cries and cries and cries for help and she physically and mentally can't take it. I came in to take the load off but nothing will ever satisfy him. he will play the sick puppy card and talk about how nobody likes him and how nobody wants to talk to him (and people try but he just shuts them out when they do). but the thing with him is...everything has to be on his terms. he just has no consideration for anyone else's health. he will drop a spoon and fucking scream "I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE!!!!" and my blood pressure shoots through the roof. (not exaggerating, happened multiple times through my life)
and I know some people will say "he's 91 years old!" but he's been this way since I could remember. it's just who he is. I've learned what different footsteps mean, I learned what different sounds could lead up to. if I hear a spoon drop anywhere now I will just cringe in anticipation. when I was a child I heard auditory hallucinations of him screaming my name.
another big source of my anxiety is that I have a little dog who's my world, and hes had to of dropped a dozen pills only a week into me being here...if she eats one...I would absolutely lose my mind. but thankfully he no longer does his pills or makes his breakfast, and we fetch his dessert and dinner. however, he can (and should for his sake) do most everything else !
my mom hasn't lived her life because of him. he will guilt trip and gaslight her to no end just for going out with friends, he always has. he told her shes the reason hes like this because she decided to go on a weekend trip with one of my sisters last year. he's always needed to control her and all his kids. she knows nothing about our financial situation because he refused to share it with her...even after being married 40 years.
I take xanax as needed and have been going to therapy on and off since I was 8, and I have made strides with not even needing medicinal help to help my anxiety--until I came back here. I can't work now. I had to quit my job. I was trying to make a career with my degree and all that came to a halt. I just feel like a failure, at 26, almost 27, i thought i would have some foundation by now...I thought I could be something. I want to help pay them back for my loans but here I am unemployed and just feeling worthless.
he is full time, I have no down time. even when I have down time I just anticipate him calling us for God knows what (usually for me to go upstairs and get him water or something--something he CAN do). I'm always on edge and I'm always exhausted. my body hasn't ached like this since I worked full time at a cafe and only had one 15 minute break through the whole 8 hour shift (not legal i know hahaha)
and he's still cognitive, losing memory most likely due to his heightened anxiety, but still able to hold a conversation and be as passive-aggressive as ever.
going back to my boyfriend though--he will hopefully be moving in with us later this year..once my 40 y.o sister moves out. and yeah, she rarely contributes to the situation and escapes to her boyfriends or to the store 80% of the time. my boyfriend would help and it would be a weight lifted. but I can't hope for that right now, I can't afford to hope for this to happen any time soon. it'll happen when it happens. but I can say I'm blessed to have his support from a distance.
I just want to have a life but more importantly I just want my mom to finally feel like she's living, before it's too late...
tldr; I'm goin nuts
2023.06.05 01:31 jujuonthatbeat33 Whether LYFT want to or not the new e-bike situation will come to head by end of summer
The new ebikes are great. Fast and large battery but LYFT won't be able to continue to ignore the problems that have come with it.
Falsely reported broken bikes. Many have us have seen it but in some parts of city you get to a dock and 7 or more of classic bikes have red lights. Some of times they are the new classic ones that were just put on the street that are never broken. It's awful for people just trying to get to work.
The free ebike ride when no classics are available is great perk but they have to get rid of it or do something. Maybe limit to 4 free ebike rides a month or restrict accounts that report too many broken bikes.
Scratched off QR codes. In order to save ebikes for just them and their friends QR codes are being scratched so only people with a key or know the number can use them. Besides switching to NFC from phone, not sure how to stop this besides restricting free rides and changing the reduced fare ebike prices.
By far the biggest issue is the kids riding on front. Its not about the broken basket we all see. I believe there is a 100% chance of a fatality from it by end of summer. The rider has a restricted view. Can't stop as fast and can barely maneuver. Add that to already crazy driving on the new ebikes. As kids are getting off from school all these issues are getting more and more popular.
The restricted free bike rides is an easy fix but it's not going to change things completely. The fact is their scarcity and price has created this situation. While some are using regular memberships it costs $.05 cents a minute to ride ebikes for reduced fare memberships. It needs to be at least double that which is still almost half the price regular members pay.($0.17) I think one time users pay $0.26
This is a tough subject as we saw what happened with the nurse situation. There is class and race issues that I'm sure LYFT doesn't want to touch. I do think reduced fare should get discounts. But if they don't raise the price one of these kids will probably be dead by end of summer.
