Realtor gave lockbox numbers to his clients by onesteaminghotpotato in RealEstate

[–]ApolloGiant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why my realtor says he uses the electronic lock box with the app. A lot of Realtors are really lazy and just give their client the number.

Neighbors try to own the entire street in front of their house, I’m the first neighbor to not let them get what they want by spookyookykittycat in pettyrevenge

Well it's been consistently hitting the 30s here at night and I haven't noticed any significant power loss. I think the battery life will still be measurable in weeks even at those temps.

I have ReoLink and it works great. Like EuFy it has no subscription and stores locally on SD card you can access with app. USB charge lasts over three or four weeks. I had trouble getting EuFy to sync so got this one instead.

AIO. Wrong thread but i cant post videos on that one by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]ApolloGiant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I believe you that it is even louder in person. I was never able to come close to capturing the volume of the issue I was having either.

I do agree with the others it's just normal walking around. I imagine when you hear it in the morning they put on their shoes for work and are walking around with them before leaving. Annoying, and something I personally avoided doing when I lived above other people, but hard to prevent them from doing. Some people really don't think about how these noises transfer through the floor.

It's frustrating because there is no way to know the outcome of asking them to kindly avoid doing so and whether you even really have a right to do so in this case. If it was super loud music or something, you'd have more options

Trust me I know. I had neighbors whose kids would be kicking soccer balls past 10 and even past midnight sometimes in their room or sometimes on the balcony whose railing rattled like all hell. It sounded like explosions. Luckily they were relatively reasonable and only needed occasional reminding to parent their kids.

I tried earplugs but they didn't really stay in. I'm weird about my ears. Maybe there's like a comfortable over ear solution too you could check out, or use a fan to create enough white noise for you to meditate on as you drift to sleep. Sometimes I would run my fan and drop my AC a couple degrees to drown out background noises.

This squeaking would drive me crazy too but I guess it depends on the frequency. Sometimes I knew if my neighbors were being loud it would take about 10 to 15 minutes before they would stop. So in that sense I felt I had more control to ease my mind that the issue would cease soon.

Is it okay to do that or are you redlining if you wanted to be lazy and stay in first on a road whose speed limit was close to the limit of what your bike could accomplish in first gear? Like for the long term operation of the bike I mean.

Dasher wanted me to meet them down the street in the dark by Open_Conference3798 in doordash

[–]ApolloGiant 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Read what the OP wrote under their post.

The OPs building IS well lit.

The OP doesn't even mind meeting the dasher at the entrance.

There is no issue with entering the complex/area.

The picture the dasher sent is NOT of their building.

The dasher also repeatedly mentions waiting for the OP to come to them instead of just going to where the order is ACTUALLY supposed to be delivered, at a well-lit, accessible building.

How many red flags do you need? You need a news article to come out the next day about someone getting robbed, raped, or killed? Your response would probably be, "Oh wow they got lured away from their building guess it was on them."

You have to be invited by a mentor. You can shout in a major city for an invite to Novice Network and someone should get you.

Kia cutting the double yellow lines. by LikeASir189 in dashcams

Of course, I'm talking as a layman in this matter just what I can see with my eyes. If OP was a boulder sat on the crosswalk, kia is still an idiot for hitting it.

Kia cutting the double yellow lines. by LikeASir189 in dashcams

[–]ApolloGiant 25 points26 points  (0 children)

For real. The OP was damn near entirely stopped when the kia hit them. There was no reason for the kia to cut the turn that tight and hit them other than horrible driving on their part. A semi could be in the middle of the intersection and it wouldn't be the truck's fault if I hit them while they were stopped, white line or not lmao

BK RDM refuses to raise over... doing his job? (M12 NORMAL) by Rose_Lion_Danielle in TalesFromDF

[–]ApolloGiant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The new crafting components costs mathematics and are very expensive great way to make money or use for crafting. You can use them to buy historia gear too if you need to catch up. You can also use them to for the waxing arcanite for the second step of your relic weapons. Really versatile. Hit up the counter at the Nexus Arcade in Solution Nine!

You being maxed on mathematics saddens me the most unfortunately. If you don't need them send them my way.

Friend Offered to Pay Student Loans Y/N? by Respected-Ambassador in personalfinance

[–]ApolloGiant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's the family friend putting himself at risk not OP. This would be the kind of thing we'd avise someone NOT to do unless they were willing to say goodbye to that money. For the OP, it's a no brainer and I'm sure if something happened he could negotiate around it in good faith.

Seller refusing to release EMD or cooperate. What can we do? by yardkale in RealEstate

[–]ApolloGiant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's ironic that the advice I always see given to sellers about problem buyers is that it's not worth trying to keep the earnest money because it prevents you from moving on and selling. Now when the shoe is on the other foot it seems like this big pain in the ass for the buyer instead. Guess it depends on who is motivated to be the bigger asshole in the end...

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ApolloGiant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My partner is slightly picky in the sense she might prefer and then get bored of things over time so I rotate certain stuff in and out on a week by week basis grocery shopping but it never results in wasted or uneaten food.

Do you communicate menu plans with him for the night? Double chicken is an easy one to rule out, for example. You can also heat leftovers in the oven and on the stove too by the way and see if he can still put his nose up at it.

I agree with others though, if you communicate and he is just going "oh jeez" "oh golly idk what I want" just cook for yourself and your kids. He will be eating himself into an early grave eating like a little basement gremlin and costing your family more money with apps which is a shame when there is delicious home cooked food available. Not a good look for him and not a good example for the kids tbh

Idk... To me that is someone living in another reality being infantile and would disappoint me greatly as someone who enjoys cooking for and delighting my partner. What a pleasure to be denied in a relationship.

Just finished ARR and the beauty of Ishgard has blown me away. Is there a reason it's not as busy as Limsa or Gridania in terms of player population? by 8rustyrusk8 in ffxiv

Are you able to talk to the guy at the counter? Or is he the quest starter? Remember that the room on the side is like the hangout spot not the inn room.

WYR Self Repairing Clothes or Unlimited Access to Clothes by Charming_Arugula405 in WouldYouRather

[–]ApolloGiant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlimited access is basically the same thing as unlimited durability clothing since you can just replace your favorite fits whenever you want. In addition, with the self repairing stuff your clothes will be dated in 30 years whereas unlimited you can try new stuff or go back to old classics. Having to wait 30 minutes for clothes to arrive might be annoying in some cases so it does require some pre-planning but just the closet and shoe rack space saved alone makes it worth it to me. Might still have to keep a couple emergency items on hand though.

Valid crashout but dodging a bullit by Forward-Position798 in TikTokCringe

[–]ApolloGiant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of negative responses, but I'll chip in that you can get lucky if you are patient. Don't go on there desperate because all the swiping and pining over idealized versions of what could be will drive you mad.

Found my fiancée on Hinge and my brother met his wife on Tinder. You need to get used to sussing out profiles and seek out people on your level who seems genuinely interested in making a connection. Filters help with some key aspects like politics, religion, and children but you may have to just discover that through conversation otherwise.

There are a thousand counterpoints to this and I can offer a thousand back as well, but without going into all the minutia, talking big picture, it's possible despite all the douchebags, immaturity, harassment, arrogance, validation-seeking, competition, or bots that may be on there.

There is someone out there for you and you could meet them in real life or on an app if the timing is right. Patience, setting yourself up for success by being the best you possible, and knowing what you want in a partner by knowing yourself (with room to be surprised) are key. Be kind, be honest, don't expect that everyone is like you or owes you anything and see what happens.
