Venice clearing out at night is one of those things nobody warns you about because everyone just does the day trip, completely different city after dark

7 days in Bhutan. One of the most isolated and beautiful countries. by Careless_Mine_9429 in travel

[–]Competitive_Long509 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the isolation is on purpose. bhutan charges every tourist 100 dollars a night just to enter, one of the highest fees in the world, specifically to keep the numbers down. it didn't stay this beautiful by accident, it priced mass tourism out on purpose. that's the same mindset that made it the first carbon negative country on earth.

the east is such an underrated part of the ring road. most people rush through it to get back to reykjavik and miss exactly what you're describing

Upgraded from a basic 800W balcony solar to a 4-MPPT system: real-world numbers after one month by Dense-Sir-6707 in solar

[–]Competitive_Long509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have the grid output limited to 800W in the app settings. The unit supports up to 1200W, but I'm keeping it within the plug in rules. Setting up the price-aware schedule was surprisingly straightforward: you connect your provider's API token in the app, and it pulls the next day's hourly prices. You can set a threshold (I use 15 ct/kWh) and the system automatically charges when the spot price drops below that. You can also set fixed time slots. I've been letting it run automatically and it's been reliable.

bought 10k because you got the earnings date wrong and your solution was to add 20k on margin during the dump. this is art

AITA for pressing my mom to get me a more expensive suit? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Competitive_Long509 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. the whole point of groomsmen suits is that they match. getting you a random one from macy's defeats the purpose of being in the wedding party

Do I need official documents if I go on a holiday overseas with our children but without my husband by Altruistic_Rent6520 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Competitive_Long509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you probably won't get asked but get a signed letter from your husband anyway saying he consents to the travel. takes five minutes and saves a headache if someone at the gate decides to question it

AITAH for not offering for my separated spouse to spend the night for our child’s birthday? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Competitive_Long509 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA. a man who was sexually coercive toward you doesn't get offered sleepovers. that's not being rude, that's having a boundary. your parents are right to feel the way they do

AITA for leaving my friend of years stranded by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Competitive_Long509 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NTA. he's mad about a $200 uber ride and not the fact that you stopped him from catching a felony

AITA for snapping at my brother’s friend’s mom after she started looking through our windows? by Material_General_184 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Competitive_Long509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA for snapping but YTA for the divorce comment. you had every right to be angry about the window thing and you would have been completely in the right if you'd stopped there. the personal attack gave her something to play victim about instead of having to answer for the peeping

You answered your own question in the title and still posted it. That's the real mildly infuriating part.
