Can I amber whataboutism volcel myself? If you're in the area, consider going, I'm not even too deep into them but it's some of the gayest music ever made by a straight person so pretty sure the vibe will be correct. For the ultra paranoid email [email protected] from a throwaway. Rather an extra communist at the show than some random redditor!

It's conceivable that running at a lower wattage could crud up the coils more quickly, so charge it all the way. I hope this goes without saying, don't make a disposable your main vape it's obscenely wasteful

Or suppose you just buy the place outright, then 60-80% of the rent depending on how stingy you are and tax rate is just profit, you need not make any gains on the real estate at all, you're in the black the whole time on paper should you ever need to secure a loan, and in a 10-20 years you have a property plus the initial cash you invested. Probably the least efficient but also least risky way to go about it, you can always midway between the two strategies depending on risk tolerance, landlording is good business!

Oh yes. Even better, knowing 100% it'll work (even though you're wrong 2% of the time about this) and just pushing/merging without running the tests/code locally. A risk but as long as you're more consistent than your peers who program by pattern patching and trial/error...

So you have some kind of spectrum modem with a built in router and the wired connection is solid? Assuming you've turned it off and back on again....

Last time I had spectrum you could still configure quite a bit from the modem admin UI, usually you can access it at 192.167.1.1, though this can vary. Get in there, if you changed the password (you should have lol) and don't remember you'll need to do a hard reset on the modem which you can look up by model number. Update the firmware and/or mess with random wifi settings till it works. All of this is reversible with a hard reset, unless the firmware update fails so maybe do that last. If this fails either replace the hardware or get a separate wifi router, don't need to worry about compatibility really just get one with the same or greater Ethernet bandwidth as the model. Or you can go to the spectrum brick/mortar and wait in line and they'll replace it.

VERY IMORTANT: when you do end up getting off spectrum and have to return the hardware, take a picture of the receipt at UPS or wherever you happen to return it. They will very likely try to fuck you and say it wasn't returned, I believe this is an unofficial internal policy. Even if you do this they may send you to collection even thought you proved to them more than once you returned it. Take screenshots and/or recordings of all interaction with spectrum agents. Then finally a strongly worded letter (registered mail) to the collection agency with all your evidence will end the nightmare. Is it worth it to spent 12 hours of work and $10 to send a registered letter so that spectrum only extracts $2 extra dollars by selling your "debt" rather than 50? I would argue that yes, it is

Most unrealistic movie I've ever seen. This guy at the front is called a "cock-swain", and he wears this gear the whole time, and not once did any of the "boys" laugh, giggle, not so much as a snicker

You might have heard that private college scholarships are not as great as they seem because many schools will require that they be reported and will then just reduce the student's aid package by the same amount as the scholarship. I have an offspring about to enter freshman year, got a story like that except actually it's worse.

They have this 3k private scholarship, but it came with a couple conditions: the money must be transferred directly to the school and cannot leave its system, I assume to prevent it from being spent on anything fun, and it expires after 1 year, anything remaining is returned to the board. They're attending the University of Texas, a school where less than 20% of students stay in the dorms because they're ridiculously expensive and there aren't nearly enough of them, and since we didn't think to apply for housing back in like February my kid didn't even have that option. They ended up landing in a non affiliated coop with its own meal program, aren't paying tuition the first year due to another award, so all they were planning to spend to the school this year was for fees and books. As it turns out, nearly all of the money from this scholarship just ended up displacing grants that come with no conditions, which could have been used to pay for rent and gas, buy marijuanas etc.

So I guess the correct course of action would have been to retroactively decline the scholarship before the money hit the school, but we didn't have the information required to make that decision, even theoretically, until about a month before everything was doled out, and that's supposing we actually knew the rules they use when re-computing the aid package which I don't believe is published anywhere and even after several calls to financial aid we didn't get until 1 week ago, it's like getting blood from a stone, and honestly I didn't have any inkling that accepting a scholarship could actually hurt you financially so it didn't even occur to either of us to press them harder for the information.

Anyway at least I'm glad my kid has learned this lesson early, that life is actually an incredibly intricate yet boring game of spreadsheets where you have to wait on hold for 3 hours and then roll a 20 to learn the formula used to populate each cell. On an unrelated note, does anyone know where I could offload around 150 hook-em horns T-shirts size XXL to XXXXL?

More pics. I have no idea what I'm doing so will be accepting tips. The medium is roughly 1-1-1 of clay based cat litter, jiffy mix, and perlite, little bit of crushed limestone and vermiculite.
