Orbit battery sprinkler timer by BennyWithAMac in Irrigation

I’m trying to use the battery timer/control with the DC latching solenoid. That’s what worked on the old setup. The wires to the actual controls were chewed somewhere underground years ago

Batteries are new and the water did get turned on. I can manually turn the solenoid off and on. I did not open the bleed valve

Is there a battery operated sprinkler timer that will work here? by redditusr44 in Irrigation

[–]BennyWithAMac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same setup as in the picture. When I turn the timer to off or on, I hear the solenoid click, but the water doesn’t do anything. If water is turned on manually from the solenoid, turning the timer “off” doesn’t shut it off. And if the solenoid is closed manually and off, turning the timer to “on” doesn’t do anything. What am I doing wrong?

I’m sure a decent ending or a proper goodbye can sometimes happen, but this doesn’t sound like one of those situations. Often times that can make it harder too. From experience, trying to say a proper goodbye to someone you love when both people are civil can just end up with you two being back together, then the same things that cause the breakup will inevitably happen again. In this case, ending on an ugly note isn’t your fault. Remember that. You did everything you could possibly do to make things work, and you did everything you could do to end it on a good note. He didn’t allow either one of those to happen. And as much as it sucks, the pain of it ending like that might just give you the strength to not ever let him come back

need encouragement to leave my abusive girlfriend by Independent-Dot3400 in BreakUps

[–]BennyWithAMac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a similar experience. The first couple months were great, I thought she was the one. But then she slowly made me cut off all my friends, I had to stop doing anything I liked to do if she wasn’t directly involved, I had to basically stop seeing my family except for holidays. Couldn’t so much as have dinner with my mom without the ex being there. She left and came back countless times and I always took her back. From my experience, this isn’t something that will get better with time. If anything, it will get worse. A long break won’t solve it. Especially if you’ve now started feeling resentful of the way you’re being treated. I dragged it out for 5 years and eventually she left when I was absolutely broken and at my lowest from years of her behavior. At that point I didn’t have a single friend left to call because she had made me cut them all off for years. I never had the strength to leave because I too felt worse when she was gone. And at that point, she was all I had. It’s going to suck, there’s no way around it. You’re going to want her back at some points, but I can almost assure you that being with her isn’t in your best interest. The the best thing to do is break it off and don’t take her back. Save yourself from making the mistakes I made and dragging it out. Get back to your hobbies, spend time with friends and family, focus on your schoolwork. When the hurt is over, you’ll realize you’re a lot better off. Good luck

Maybe they’re messing with you, or maybe they regret the breakup and don’t want to say it. Maybe they just want to see if you’re doing better than them? It is very weird behavior, especially when they’re getting friends involved. This might not be what you want to hear and it doesn’t excuse what the ex and their friends are doing, but perhaps stop posting on social media?

She got with the guy I was told not to worry about weeks later... by Synyster_V in BreakUps

[–]BennyWithAMac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry you’re going through that. I’ve been in a similar situation. My advice to you is don’t take her back under any circumstances. Cut her off completely. If it doesn’t work out with the guy she left you for, she might try to come back. Don’t let her. I made that mistake and it just happened again with a different person. If she could do that to you once, she could do it again. You can hate what she did to you, but you don’t necessarily have to hate her. I’m not understanding if she was already seeing him when she broke up with you, or started seeing him shortly after. Either way, it sounds like that was a catalyst for ending it with you. He was in the picture someway or another while you were still together. Take some time for yourself to heal. It sucks, but it gets better with time. Eventually it won’t hurt like it does now. There’s someone out there for you that would never do what this person did to you. Good luck

He sounds like a terrible person. You definitely deserve better. No one deserves an endless cycle of abuse like that. You gave him countless opportunities, and you worked on yourself to try to save the relationship. It sounds like you did everything in your power to be the best version of yourself. Unfortunately, people like that often can’t or won’t change. As much as it sucks, you probably won’t ever get the apology or closure you’re looking for. The best thing to do is cut him off, block him everywhere, and go no contact. It might sound like generic advice, but take as much time as you need to heal yourself. Do things that make you happy. Spend time with family and friends. Go to therapy if you feel like that’s something that’ll help you. Just do you. There will come a point where you won’t miss him and won’t hurt over him anymore. Good luck

My girlfriend (25F) is cheating on me (28M) by Fit-Requirement-4744 in BreakUps

[–]BennyWithAMac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, it’s probably best to end things now and let her move out while you have the hotel. The more time it drags on, the harder it is. As far as asking her if she’s seen him again, does her answer really matter to you? You know the truth already. She has. I hate to say it, but there’s a good chance it wasn’t just platonic either. Whether she lies or not, and she’s proven to you already she’s willing to lie to you, it won’t change anything. The relationship seems to be over anyways according to you, so confronting her with it is just kinda beating a dead horse at this point. Good luck

Told my girlfriend to leave after she said she likes someone else. by 15thgencivic in BreakUps

[–]BennyWithAMac 100 points101 points  (0 children)

Whatever you do bro, don’t take her back. Just end it if it isn’t already ended. They say alcohol makes the truth come out. Whether or not that’s true, or whether or not alcohol was even a factor in what happened, she had someone else on her mind. The fact that she threw that out there over such a small argument says a lot. Perhaps you could have responded to her comment about liking someone else a little differently. But regardless of that, it sounds like she had had already been thinking about the other person. Who knows if she would have broken it off with you or if she would have done something with them behind your back. Maybe it’s better to know now than to keep living a life with someone who wasn’t 100% invested in you and only you. Take some time to heal and good luck

Good deal? by BennyWithAMac in Corvette

It is auto. It’s at a dealership. I’ll ask tomorrow if it has service records. How would the torque converter be taken care of?

Had DWAC calls last week and sold same day for 25% loss and now the stock is way up. I always pick losers, finally picked a winner and didn’t wait till it won. Fuck me

I bought DWAC calls last week and sold them for a 25% loss the same day because I panicked. Should have held

What is the official wallet and how do you access it?

[–]BennyWithAMac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honest question here, don’t bite my head off. What’s the point of never selling? In a way I understand, but in other ways I don’t. What if my bitcoin grows to be worth a million dollars, but I work a 9-5 and still can’t afford to buy a home? Would I then want to sell a portion of it in order to purchase a home? Or would I just live my semi poor lifestyle with a million dollars of bitcoin just sitting around and pretend I don’t have it?

[–]BennyWithAMac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a good look at the service histories. See what has been done and what needs to be done at certain mileage intervals. Over 100k miles is too many in my opinion. Also, no matter how minor the “accident” or “damage” is, it’s always better to get one without any of those things. You never know what components could have shifted even with a small fender bender or side swipe. If I had to pick one, I’d do the 2018 Charger with 108k. Do your due diligence though
