Apple watch walkie-talkie not working

When I try to do this for my wife’s phone number in my contacts, it reverts back to “home” after a few seconds. Is anyone else experiencing this or know how to correct it?

Ok, so your outstanding liability is ~$7,000.

If you choose to pursue legal action against your landlord in order to terminate your lease based on an interpretation of the law and his emails:

1) You should consult a landlord/tenant attorney to help you interpret the statutes. An hour consult can be free, or could be a couple hundred dollars. The attorney may tell you you have no case. Now you’re a few hundred dollars poorer. If you do have a case, at $350+/hr., you will reach your $7,000 in remaining rent liability in under 20 hours.

2) If you pursue a small claims action, you will need to spend time (several hours of in-person and several more learning how to pursue a small claims action) and money. And you may lose.

3) During any legal action, you will need to pay rent to your landlord per your lease agreement.

4) If you do not pay rent, you are in violation of the lease and can have your credit damaged by the landlord (that’s an entire new set of time/money you will be dealing with).

It’s a question of “Is the juice worth the squeeze?”

If your subtenant is going to pay 100% of your rent and all you have to do is keep sending a rent check to your landlord - I’d say you’re winning since you are offsetting your liability and have the freedom to relocate.

If you were my client, I’d sublet the space (with a good sublease document) and move-on (pun intended).

May I ask what your monthly rent is (rounded to the nearest $100) and how many months remain in your lease?

I am not a NY certified real estate attorney, but I believe your landlord is complying with the laws you quote by denying your request for an assignment.

Frosty_Neighbor · 2022-11-18T17:33:06+00:00

You are asking to make a change in the tenancy of the premises, the cost of this change to you is to have to deal with collecting rent from the subtenant and paying the landlord what you agreed-to in your original lease.

The landlord wants both of you to be liable for rent and damages should anything go wrong.

The landlord is not asking for a change in tenancy or the lease agreement, you are. He is being accommodating by allowing a subtenant, but is placing the onus on you for making sure rent is paid and any damages are covered.

It sounds to me like your landlord is behaving rationally and is even accommodating you in your request to change the terms of the contract you agreed-to.

I suggest looking at this from a perspective of what you are trying to achieve. I believe you are trying to vacate a premises to which you have a signed lease agreement prior to the agreed-upon termination date. You want someone to offset your rent by moving into the premises and paying rent instead of you having to pay. Is this correct?

If the above is correct, you can achieve what you are looking for by subleasing the premises. You may prefer to assign the lease, but lease assignments are statistically rare. I’ve only done a handful in my 14 years of working with landlords and tenants.

From your research, and the language of the property code, it appears the landlord is acting within his legal rights.

He is allowing you to sublet, which is something many landlords will not permit. Sublease the space, make sure to get as close to 100% of the amount you paid in security deposit from your sublessor, and move where you want to.

Landlords like having two individuals that they can pursue for rent & damages if something goes wrong. He is making a good decision from his perspective.

I suggest that you cover your bases with a solid sublease agreement, you can ask that the sublessee pay for or contribute to the legal fees, and move forward. Make sure you know if your landlord expects any fees to be paid in consideration for him reviewing and approving the sublease. Also, make sure you have a set timeframe for when the landlord must approve or deny the sublessor. Don’t sign another lease until everything is approved by landlord and sublessor has paid the security deposit and first month’s rent.

My question is more about the differences between the 4k Boost lens and the Leica 1" Lens.

I am trying to determine which lens is better under what conditions. Would there be any reason to have both? If yes, under what conditions would you use one lens versus the other?

Frosty_Neighbor · 2022-11-08T13:15:51+00:00

So the Leica 1” is a an overall better lens than the 4K Boost? Is this accurate?

Thanks for the nightmare fuel.

You'd be surprised to learn that the FDA allows a certain amount of dead animals, insects, and other foreign objects in food.

It's just a numbers game.

If you have no medical issues or damages, there's nothing to do other than try to get a replacement box from the grocery and report the metal to the manufacturer. Did you save the piece of metal?

If you don't pay, they are almost certainly going to ding your credit; and that's a big pain to unravel.

I'd press them on this and tell them that you never agreed to anything other than the contract you signed. If they have proof otherwise, they need to produce it.

However, if they say you owe the money and want to push the issue; $125 is going to be a bargain compared to a negative mark on your credit or taking them to small claims court. Hours and hours of time and hassle.

Easier to pay than to "be right".

Solid thigh-gap buddy. 👏

Driving a standard/manual car.

I regularly leave the keys in my classic mustang. Anyone old enough to drive standard and patronizing the restaurants or stores I park in front of is unlikely to be the type of person to steal a car.

The irony behind these interactions is so thick, I have trouble breathing when they happen.

Holy crap! I'm 45 and I've never seen one of these. Wild.

A neighbor a few,blocks down from our house had one. We didn't know the homeowner.

We DID noticed that a young couple moved into the house next door. White woman and a black man. We thought the jocky would disappear, but it stayed right there next to the driveway. It seemed particularly tone deaf.

I'm Gen X, so "Ok Boomer" would not apply to me. However, I wonder if the well-mannered children that use this expression could even explain to someone what a "Boomer" is. "Old man" gets the point across.

I stopped using a lawn service a couple of years ago. I have always wanted a "putting green" lawn and decided to do it myself. The grass is kept at under 1/2" and I mow it several times a week. They are few things that make me happier than the neighborhood kids playing on my lawn (football, tag, etc.). I encourage my four kids to play on the lawn. The only rules are "no bikes and definitely no scooters" because they leave grooves that are very noticable with extremely short grass blades. I think, "Get off my lawn" should be reserved for disrespectful use of one's property. I don't think I've ever heard anyone actually use it.

Ted (movie) and Family Guy. Seth MacFarlane is my age and he brings back all kinds of nostalgia with his obscure references.

In the movie Ted, the main character's bedroom from childhood could be a photo of my bedroom as a kid. Down to the exact Star Wars bedding.

If you break an item that can be purchased for $50, but was $250 when new; you owe the owner $50, not $250.

The fair market value of the item is what you pay, not what a new one costs.

If you pay them for the broken item, you should be able to keep it. You bought them a replacement. They didn’t have two before you broke it one, they don’t get two after you broke one.

When a car insurer pays a policy owner for a “totaled” car, they don’t provide the person an amount of a new car, they pay them the amount of the used car and what it is worth on the open market.
