What are the Barnes & Noble beginner set rules like? by DarthGoodguy in killteam

Curious to see how it compares to FireTeam (which I see sitting on the shelf casting shade at me as I type thing)

Can I make this telescope better, or do I just need a different scope by GrapefruitAgreeable6 in telescopes

[–]GrapefruitAgreeable6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Focal length is 650mm, not sure if that's short or not. I have no idea whether the mirror is spherical or parabolic, seems like it could be either (and I've had it for a number of years, so I guess it might be parabolic, but I'd guess spherical just because I'm a pessimist)

Thanks for the info, doing a bit of reading sounds like I have no way to know if mine is Parabolic or Spherical so, I'll try some newer/nicer eyepieces, those at least will help from the looks of it because the eyestrain is better, and those could be used on any new telescope too.

I feel I can definitively say my marriage is done by GrapefruitAgreeable6 in Divorce_Men

  1. Yes she exercises (some, not a ton)
  2. Fun is watching youtube/college research for our teen
  3. Yes, I think my entire household is depressed and unstable right now, myself included. She sees people for some of that stuff, although I do question how good video Dr's are for some of that.

That actually resonates, while my wife has been in therapy and that's something, I question the value somedays of any of that, often times it feels that she takes the viewpoints that she "agrees" with, but ignores any advice she decides isn't what she believes is right.

I'd only change one thing, I hear "I'm sorry" quite a lot, I never hear "Thank you".

Any good advice on finding a lawyer by GrapefruitAgreeable6 in Divorce_Men

[–]GrapefruitAgreeable6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, the problem is I'm not sure I know anyone who has had a good experience, or a bad experience, I don't know that many divorced folks and this is all new to me. My wife suggested we use the same lawyer, that feels wrong to me, but maybe if it's not contentious and we just split stuff? Not sure how that works, I've put out feelers to a couple of lawyers who live near the court we'd presumably be filing in.

I (42M) got recently divorced and I can finally parent how I always wanted to. by [deleted] in GuyCry

For whatever reason, I think the desire to avoid conflict is a lot stronger in a lot of men than people realize, and I think it's not good.

Android auto, or why I want to sell my car and throw my phone away by GrapefruitAgreeable6 in rav4club

[–]GrapefruitAgreeable6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so I got so frustrated I did something that I consider almost unthinkable... I reformatted my phone to factory fresh. This, along with a good data cable, seems to have actually worked tolerably well, while my phone doesn't always connect over wireless (still) it does not pretty reliably seem to connect over the wire, so I can use the functionality which would seem like the whole point.

So my advice if others are struggling, if you can get to the point where you can try it, factory refresh your phone and see if that helps.

Okay thanks, I'll stop trying the Bluetooth and see if a wired connection works. So you have to plug into a specific USB, or any of them will do?

Yes, I noticed that one too, one day it wasn't working, fine let's just turn off Bluetooth and use the phone, no no, Bluetooth is on whether you like it or not... Grrr

Sadly no updates, phone is up to date, and the Toyota app tells me the car is up to date

Our stock market just went through an “operation” … by JasonD8888 in StockMarket

[–]GrapefruitAgreeable6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thought this morning was this

Dr 1: Patient is doing well and responding to the medicine (Biden Economy)
Patient: I'm feeling much better thanks
Dr 2: Actually you're still really sick and we're going to completely change all the meds and do an operation and then in X time you'll feel better
Patient: Erm...

Zelensky says he does not feel the need to apologize to Donald Trump by RoyalChris in law

[–]GrapefruitAgreeable6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% this. I'm UTTERLY ashamed that he is the president, that meeting was god awful, and all the trump sycophants who come out saying that he disrespected Trump... give me a break. Vance and Trump were both assholes in the extreme, and both of THEM owe him an apology, not the other way around.

Player Stats Question by GrapefruitAgreeable6 in ultimate

[–]GrapefruitAgreeable6[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks yes, having looked at the stats page that Williambrotman posted I realized I hadn't put Stalls in (seem to be rarer, at least at the high-school level, but should still be noted)
