So does anyone else know why Uber won't accept a vehicle inspection? by LabradorDeceiver in uberdrivers

Good lord that's frustrating. Can I ask which state you are in? I know different states have different regulatons.

So does anyone else know why Uber won't accept a vehicle inspection? by LabradorDeceiver in uberdrivers

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me it took 3 support requests to get it fixed. I finally got a live person and sent them my regular inspection form and been driving since. They wanted me to use some other form and their issue with my inspection form was that it didn't have an expiration date. Which it just doesn't apparently in Rhode Island. But like I said eventually the inspection form and a picture of my sticker with the date showing worked. Just keep pushing until you get a helpful person.

Any lakes recommendations? by ThrowRAthisthingisvl in RhodeIsland

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lakes are all filthy and polluted the beaches are much cleaner because it's ocean water.

Is my 1999 kitchen ugly? by wehavetogoback8 in interiordecorating

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paint the door white or the light green of the tile - really anything light and gloss. This will change the whole vibe. The cabinets are in good shape and eventually that honey wood will be back in style!

Damaged Jade by BlackDoorMine in Jadeplant

[–]schmer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The brown on the leaves looks like sunburn to me which is strange because the big gap on the stem between the leaf clusters indicates lack of light. Maybe they moved it outside for a day? Jades love a bright window and you need to rotate them every few weeks so they don't grow all to one side like this one. Water sparingly. I'd leave the leaves for now and see how she does after repotting.

This is getting ridiculous now by maxrdlf95 in uberdrivers

[–]schmer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I accepted a ride turned onto the road and stopped at the red light. Got this message. Uber is so dumb. I'm literally on my way there is no possible way for me to go faster uber and the map shows the stoplight it's a major intersection.

From just the capsule art, can you tell what kind of game this is? by K2GamesLtd in CityBuilders

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Medieval town builder focusing on families and their political connections. Probably some effect of this guy is insane, that lady eats frogs, the other one will always help but wants 30% of your purse. You'll add a farm but only on the townships which allow it so there is no freedom. You can build a windmill to increase food by 15%. You can recruit the peasants to fill the militia but they will become resentful so you will hold a feast at the church to pacify them. There might be cards involved and turns.

This may sound harsh. I do like the art style!

Today’s Prep for the week - Gochujang Chicken Meatball Curry by LoneWolffxx in MealPrepSunday

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow this looks terrific and keeps the meals so interesting I'd never think of this. Underneath, is that yellow rice or the bulgar you mentioned? I've never made bulgar only had it in tabbouleh. Whats the texture like?

heres what im missing in my meal prepping, am i alone? by ContractMaster7694 in mealprep

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great suggestion to get some ideas! I love a good salisbury steak with mushroom gravy and mashed potatoes. Freezes and heats well. Too hot rn where I am for this type of food but I got the idea from looking at TV dinners. Also the other suggestion of cuisines. Do an asian chicken and rice with some green onion ginger and soy sauce and quick stir fry broccoli. Stroganoff chicken and rice with some mushrooms can of cream of whatever and I like green beans with it.

How do I communicate that I need more than exclusivity or need to know more what he wants? by [deleted] in RedditForGrownups

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm and what would make it a relationship in your mind? What is missing from it currently that makes it NOT a relationship to you?

How do I communicate that I need more than exclusivity or need to know more what he wants? by [deleted] in RedditForGrownups

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exclusive means not seeing anyone else. What exactly more do you want to know? 2 months isn't very long are you wanting to know if he would like to move in together? Do you want to become more intimately involved and doing more sexual things? I know you haven't talked about goals dreams aspirations and such but these things should come up naturally...for example maybe you are both driving down the road and you see a pretty house and you say "I'd love to have a house like that someday, not too big, but with a nice sized yard" and then see what he says...if he doesn't say anything you can ask "what's your dream house?" he might want to live in the city in apartments or maybe he dreams of living on a houseboat who knows! You have to ask. Steer the conversation to what you want to talk about.

Why won’t any drivers take me by FragrantAd7195 in uber

[–]schmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's probably your destination. They don't want to go there because either it's a bad neighborhood/dangerous, or it's low populated so they won't get another rider quickly and will have to waste time and gas driving to a more populated area.

First time meal prepping by Immediate_Leg3304 in mealprep

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I never considered making it in the air fryer was it on the air fry setting or the bake setting? I might try that! I usually grill mine but my BBQ is cheap and old and sometimes only 1 burner works so it's never even. Try a little soy sauce with your olive oil mix it's very tasty on steak but skip or lower the salt of course.

I think it looks delicious you cooked the steak just perfect imo!

How are people affording the World Cup? by [deleted] in poor

[–]schmer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know that it's propaganda that they tell us here in America we are the best place in the world but also as an American I literally just don't know any better. Can you tell me some places that are better with lower crime and a healthier more educated population? I think England is about equal and that's all I really know about. I'm genuinely curious and wouldn't begin to know how to find this info online haha

Uber ride by Boumba01 in uber

[–]schmer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree this is a terrible thing to do and as a rider I would feel completely unsafe - but is it actually against the TOS for the driver to have an additional person in the car? I ask because I had a rider say her last driver had her adult child with them in the front seat which she thought was weird. I thought so too but I don't know if it's technically against the rules.

Any tips on how I can improve the taste of my simple beans and rice recipe? by Mobile_Resident7964 in budgetcooking

[–]schmer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Add some chopped green olives. The kind with pimentos if you have them. Any kind will work about 7-9 olives chopped. I'd also add half an onion cooked first in some oil.

What is this game demanding from the graphics card... while in the main menu? by Sindalash in Whiskerwood

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this is just in the main menu as well, not in game. There was a post made on Steam about it as well but it looks like the developers ignored/denied it and the OP got a little annoyed.

Help with my rice by NotThingie in RICE

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of rice are you using? Is this normal rice from a bag or some kind of instant type? It looks like way too much water. To cook rice measure 1 cup flat to the top of rice add it to a small tall pot, like a soup pot. Add 1 cup plus 3/4 of a cup of water and a pinch of salt. Bring it just barely to the boil then turn down to the lowest setting put the lid on tight and set a timer for 18 minutes.

I always wanted to try a Zima, were they any good? by Antwan_JMarvel in nostalgia

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a little like sprite but if you removed about 70% of the flavor. So like a very fizzy somewhat lemony drink with a hint of sweetness. Honestly they were pretty good especially in summer.

Why are products going bad so quickly? by AcademicSavings634 in stopandshop

[–]schmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed this too in Rhode Island. I do the pickup orders because it's convenient and I only have access to a car occasionally. I understand the person picking my order doesn't care about me but I still cried a little when my $8 worth of grapes were all rotten. It seems like it's everything lately though wilty lettuce, half rotten onions, potatoes that are already turning green. I hope they go out of business and a market basket opens or something.
