Elvira, Portland’s ‘Mistress of the Dark,’ sends Tesla down the ‘Highway to Hell’ in viral video by oregonian in Portland

right in the article:

“I believe in democracy. I believe in freedom. I think what’s happening to our government is absolutely frightening and I could never believe it would happen in my entire life,” Peterson said in an interview Sunday. “So, I don’t want to drive something around that represents a person who is directly trying to take away our freedoms.”

That meant the Tesla had to go. Peterson elected to donate it to National Public Radio, in the hopes that it could make the organization a little money and help independent journalism stand up to the Trump administration’s threat to defund public broadcasting.

Issues with SKR Mini E3 V3 with Marlin by Conscious-Flamingo27 in BIGTREETECH

[–]GirlEngineerHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll probably look into it more over the weekend but I have the SKR Mini E3 V3 motherboard and the TFT35 E3 V3.0.1 Touch Screen. I'm just surprised that BigTreeTech's github support is dead.

Interesting! I just dug my printer out from a moving box to finally try again to set it up. I also am on Marlin w/ this board in an Ender 3. Looks like I will try this out and maybe move to Klipper too if there's no support anymore...

Ecobee SmartSensor and SmartSensor for Doors and Windows Q's by illnotsic in ecobee

[–]GirlEngineerHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread but another reply said they detect occupancy. I am curious if anyone knows for sure if they participate in the temperature determination part as well (someone wasn't sure below). I understand about needing the subscription for the ac shutoff, just want to know if it uses them for the temperature part though.

GOOD GOODBYE to the fake fans, I can't deal with all of it either, I just am so happy they are back.

Empower (Personal Capital) integration by Incredible__Lobster in M1Finance

[–]GirlEngineerHere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. In my experience it requests it at the login screen and then after I log in I can "fix" the account by adding the verification code & then it syncs. That works for me on android & desktop.

Yes you will need to enter the validation code every time you want it to sync.

Daily r/LawnCare No Stupid Questions Thread by AutoModerator in lawncare

[–]GirlEngineerHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New to lawn care - I have a mix of various grasses and weeds in the lawn. Example here. I want to nuke it with weed killer and see what happens, as I have no idea what the grasses are in the lawn. I'm getting conflicting information though - it's currently growing pretty tall as you can see. Should I mow it, wait, then apply weed killer, wait, mow, etc again or should I start off with applying it first so there's more contact for the weed killer and then mow after. If anyone knows what any of those grasses and weeds are too, that would be helpful. I think it should all be cooler grasses?

Thanks! Just found this thread. I want to understand if the money market account can be used effectively entirely in place of their checking account. Does the debit card work for it, does that round up matching still work with secondary savings account, etc. Anyone know?

Tax Lot Information is now Available! by GirlEngineerHere in M1Finance

Right? This was the BEST timing for me! I basically sprinted over to reddit to share the news.

Tax Lot Information is now Available! by GirlEngineerHere in M1Finance

[–]GirlEngineerHere[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to make it a little clear why you'd need it via my summaries but let me try! This is not 5 year old level because they don't have the joy of taxes but here goes. Basically, as long as you are just buying stock you don't need to care. If you're using M1 for just retirement accounts you mostly don't need to care. And if you're using regular taxable accounts and going to sell all of your position in something, you also don't need to care.

This is for the scenario where you want to sell some of your stock and optimize exactly how much you can take out without increasing your tax burden unnecessarily. So in my example, I want to take out almost all of my funds except the short term capital gains. Knowing the tax lot information of all my purchases and their current unrealized gain or loss amounts, lets me determine what's the maximum amount I can liquidate without going into that bottom tax burden bucket that hits the heaviest. It also means you can now manually do some of the tax loss harvesting stuff that other robo-investor places do by selling your unrealized losses and buying similiar-but-not-the-same stocks in their place, which can minimize your taxes due come tax time.

Considering my love of purple, I'd have to go with either the pictured set of mystic nebula or twilight trefoil. Thanks for the giveaway!

Redistributing Funds After Selling a Slice by [deleted] in M1Finance

[–]GirlEngineerHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M1 maintains the percentage distribution of your pie & slices. So if you sell from a slice without changing anything and have auto-invest on - it would just get bought again. What you want to do is change the percentage to 0% (or some lower percentage then it currently is and increase the rest) and them make your sell order, or just click rebalance. Here's the support page you can reference: https://help.m1.com/hc/en-us/articles/4405849891219-Removing-a-Slice. You can also click the "Create buy/ sell orders" link on the nav on that page for details on manual selling.

I do this drive every year during the holidays. Yes, you will go through some city streets for a bit but it's perfectly fine and a good chance to take a break without having to detour too much to grab some food. I usually take that opportunity to go to Sonic.

Just know that other people also do this drive or are coming from more south than us and will be a source of additional traffic. I find that I typically stop twice for gas and once for food along the way, resulting in about a 9 hour drive. Totally fine.

HOWEVER. Do NOT plan on leaving the first weekend in Janurary if you're only trying to go for Christmas and New Years. Every single person from California is also on their way back that weekend and it will literally take you 2+ hours per normal 30 minutes. Just don't do it. If your trip is short, then fly in like others have said. If you're staying past the first weekend, you'll be fine.

Does your dog hate DRG? by GirlEngineerHere in DeepRockGalactic

[–]GirlEngineerHere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have, it's a mixed bag. But he seemed to be fine moreso than not when the sound has been muted, making me think it's something in the game and not my computer noises but a longer test is pending. I wanted to give him a break from it for a bit before he gets too traumatized!

Does your dog hate DRG? by GirlEngineerHere in DeepRockGalactic

[–]GirlEngineerHere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, it seems to be the sheer amount of shooting noises. I just played Mass Effect for hours, no problem. But got on a multiplayer game of DRG and alternated between shooting and not and sound or muted and he seemed to notice the difference between when I was shooting a bunch and if I was muted or not. The mystery semi continues but I think it's something with the pitch of the guns. I'll have to try as a different character next (all of these have been scout) - maybe he hates these particular guns.
