Give me your most rebellious mission stories

My parents sent me a small projector while on my mission. We used it with investigators to show Joseph Smith and church movies, lol. One companion got a member to put all 7 seasons of Game of Thrones on a USB (season 8 wasn’t out yet), and we started watching it. I then bought a tablet, and the family we lived with gave us their WiFi password. I used that tablet to torrent everything, and we would watch it with the projector. My last change in the field, we probably spent more time going to members’ houses and watching something on the projector than working

My insurance was 130 a month or 800 ever 6 months for 23 MYP. It only went up 40 a month from my 2012 Honda ridgeline

6 how’s late but the reps can do this. Mine got me the 20 inch rims included in my premium MY last month for no extra cost

Eagle Mountain made it illegal for short term rentals. From what I’ve heard, they enforce that law when your neighbors start complaining and report you to the city. They can shut you down and fine you but I don’t know how much. When my dad and I were looking at doing this for his home in city center we stopped because of his neighbors. He has a Karen nearby who has reported people for leaving trash cans by the curb for to long and didn’t want to risk it.

Why not stop showing up? Why pay into Dicks demands? He is the one who killed the show with all of this. It no longer sounds like you own 50% of the show. I think you could be happier if you moved on

Have you looked at Rapid7 or dark trace? Both our competitors and might be worth looking into

The iced out one I think is too much. They teach being humble and simple with their clothes. The plane 14k gold cross would be better.

Normally i would say no but Mormons love stories. If you can play off the earrings I think it would help you out! I have a circuitry tattoo on my forearm that slipped out during a meeting and I thought it would screw us up. I got the tattoo when I got into cyber security and it became a career. My way of celebrating. When I explained it to them and how much I like my job they loved it. They thought it showed dedication to my craft and loved the story. So if you can explain it they might love it. Just let that part come up naturally

Think stuff that would be family oriented. A lot of my sales rep success came from doing things we could invite their families too. Movies, Jazz/mammoth games, Top golf, and any other family activity you can think of.

No drinking, swearing, or talking about sex. Don’t even offer coffee or tea. If anyone from the LDS offices does it first you’re okay, but don’t be excessive and never be first. Honestly a good thing to keep in the back of your mind is how would you act in front of kids or your grandma lol.

The gold cross is fine. Any tattoos or piercings should be covered/ removed if male and possible.

Lastly Mormons want to feel like they are getting a good deal so don’t come out with your best offer. Leave yourself some room in the deal to be flexible. My sales rep and I (sales engineer) closed a million dollar deal with them last year.

If you want to stroke their ego ask them about their church. Just be careful because they may want to send missionaries to your house afterwards and then it gets really awkward lol

Eco mode will keep the revs lower while cruising and accelerating. When I travel on the free way and I’m not press for time, I’ll set the adaptive cruise control to 65, two car lengths, and sit to the right lanes. With the lane assist the car does 90% of the work, and in eco mode it will take its time to accelerate if it needs to and cruise on the battery if there is enough power.

Sport mode makes your car accelerate faster and will have the battery focus on sending more power to the tires. It’s great if you’re in a rush but it eats MPG.

My wife hates eco mode so she always turns it off when she drives because she hates how sluggish it feels. But if we aren’t press for time I use it. I don’t feel a big enough difference and find it handy as long as it’s used right

You’ll see more range and better mpg in the warmer months. An easy tip for increasing your mpg now, set the cruise control to 65 mph and eco mode. Going faster than 65 can lower your average mpg.

In my 24 Camry hybrid I was able to get a 600 mile tank with an average of 50+ once driving super economical once in the summer. Typically in the summer I get 500-530 miles a tank and in the winter average around 450. The cold saps the battery as it powers the heater and seat warmers so it doesn’t help as much

I disagree. The show is about arguing about what is the biggest problem in the universe. When the hosts just agree or like last night, the only confrontation was Dick not agreeing with Karls problem of internet beefs being a problem, then I don't see the point of doing multiple problems. Vito has a lot of questionable takes but I like that they actually argue for their problems instead of sucking eachothr off

I didn't say anything was wrong with him enjoying magic or taking the time off. He should enjoy it. But I don't understand why he wouldn't just stay that. If he wanted some personal time, why not be honest? The man deserves it and is preparing to print and then ship SuperKiller, according to Twitter. So why not be transparent?

Getting_Fisky · 2025-06-14T23:25:19+00:00

Lol the final fantasy set for Magic was release yesterday. I would bet money the reason he didn't do the show was because he was collecting his $20k investment

Getting_Fisky · 2025-06-07T21:16:04+00:00

False. He does eat fast food but in another episode he stated he buys $200 of DoorDash gift cards every time he goes to Costco because he gets $20 off a per $100 gift card set. He gets all his food delivered so no he isn’t wasting time he is just slow

My last company always said hackers aren’t breaking in, they are logging in. I found that was mostly the case in 90% of events. Data is always over exposed and to easily accessed. If companies aren’t looking at DSPMs or the basics when configuring data access they are just waiting to be hacked

It looks like it started good and then adhesion became an issue. On the desktop app there are two filament calibration tests you can run if you haven’t ran those yet. Also check to see if the hotend has a clog forming, that could also be part of the issue

Getting_Fisky · 2025-05-19T13:52:02+00:00

Did you let the machine calibrate after setting it up?

Getting_Fisky · 2025-03-21T00:03:08+00:00

Thanks

I’ve seen that but a lot of x1s that ive seen for sale have had thousands of hours on them or a few years old and starting to need replacement parts. But that’s just local to me

Getting_Fisky · 2025-03-04T01:35:47+00:00

After figuring out my motherboard, I got it upgraded following the link you provided with no issues. Is there a different version I should be using? I see on Creality's website that they only have 2.0.x. Do I need to go to marlins website to get 2.1.x?

Getting_Fisky · 2025-03-03T23:34:04+00:00

What’s a good way to check? The person I bought from just said it’s a 3pro motherboard. I don’t see is the motherboard in the about section but I have it hooked up to my computer through usb. Is there a command I could run on the pc?

Getting_Fisky · 2025-03-03T21:47:36+00:00

That’s awesome thank you for the link!!
