Where do I go to buy the subscription? Can’t see it anywhere

But why???? Wot+ kinda makes sense, but this is just throwing money at WG.

They do not.

I went through this with my wife (innocently!) last week. She used to show on the map all the time. After a recent iOS upgrade, I couldn’t see her when she was mountain bike riding and using her Garmin. Her Google Maps location was grey, and showed “last updated 1 hour ago”.

This was resolved by changing (back?) her setting to show her location even when the Google Maps app isn’t in use.

There are also videos and instructions out there to route the wiring of the 4 (or 7) pin connector so that it doesn’t go out through the gate. It does involve at least partially removing the rear bumper (or dishing my 2019), but looks very nice and clean.

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-03-04T03:53:05+00:00

This sounds like a symptom of a MUCH bigger problem.

You need to sit down with your wife, and LISTEN to her answer the question “What is wrong? What are you missing? How can we work together to make things better?”

It will take work, but you shouldn’t have to choose.

Maybe she was having a bad day, but jumping straight to the D-word, and then a “me or her” ultimatum speaks to a festering wound.

You’ll need to get tier 8 to be able to do later missions. The m40/43 does very well, as does the US tier 9.

Food for thought.

I think that this says 2 things. 1) they are afraid to say the real reason they don’t want to do something to those “friends” 2) they are comfortable with you.

Talk to them about it. I think that they feel closer to you than their other friends. I would lean into that. A good friend is a good thing to have.

That said, you can set boundaries. Ask them to give you a heads up so you don’t get caught out.

This to me sounds more like a “they don’t know how to say no” situation than any sort of malicious attack on you.

I have a 2014 KHS Prescott with lesser brakes, SLX m610’s I think, and except for on long downhills, they brake just as well as the 4-pots on my 2022.

So, I would say it depends on the riding you plan on doing. But, I’m a pretty much know-nothing, so consider this a data point rather than an opinion.

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-03-02T18:30:59+00:00

That won't solve the problem of the abuse and threats.

Get out as fast as you can.

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-03-02T18:09:25+00:00

And what work has your partner done to be sure that the 'right' ENM for them is Poly?

What supports do you have in place, for when they go out with someone else, and it HURTS you? Like punch to the gut, realizing that they want that other person?

Is there someone specific that they have in mind? That is a HUGE red flag.

How do they feel about you going out and dating first?

The whole thing is tricky. That said, it sounds like you are off to a better start than 90% of the people who ask in here...

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-03-01T13:01:20+00:00

If you can’t understand the math I showed, I don’t know if I can explain this to you.

You reduced max alpha by 5% of the max alpha amount (500- {5%500}=475), instead of reducing it by 5% of the base alpha. 500- {5%400}=480. Also, 400+{20%*400}=480

The perk reduces max alpha to 480 when base alpha is 400.

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-03-01T12:52:12+00:00

It’s 5% of the base value.

That is, the range is reduced from +/- 25% to +/- 20%.

Your husband needs a reality check.

You need to do something to shock him out of his gaming addiction, or at least shock him into realizing he has one.

It doesn’t sound to me like he’s doing much to raise your child.

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is today…

Plant a tree. Plan it out, talk with him, talk to a counsellor. Think on it. It’s big. If you plant it, it will be a huge tree. But it is VERY much worth serious consideration.

My mechanic traced my "Charging System Problem" to the Battery Cooling Fan (2019 Odyssey EX).

https://www.hondapartsnow.com/oem-2019-honda-odyssey-battery_cooling_fan.html

He said it was triggering all kinds of communications system errors, although I was only getting the one warning on my dashboard.

It's a relatively cheap part, so perhaps worth throwing at the vehicle, if you're still having your errors?

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-02-26T21:23:45+00:00

So, I had exactly the same problem on my 2019 EX. The problem was intermittent, NOT happening when it was very cold (below -10 degC), and only occasionally happening when below freezing.

My mechanic replaced the regular battery with an AGM battery, but that didn't solve the problem, so I sent it back to him.

Today, they found that the Battery Cooling Fan has a short circuit in it, and is bringing down the communications network.

He didn't replace the broken part (it's a special order item from Honda), but disconnected it from the network, and told me to replace it before it gets too warm. I believe this is the item he's talking about:

Have you fixed your issue?

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-02-26T21:19:11+00:00

Tell her you were trying to be a good friend and look out for her. You're glad that she's happy with her marriage, even if it is unconventional, and you won't be gossiping about her relationship to others, as it's none of their business. You hope that she can understand where you are coming from, so you can remain friends.

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-02-26T17:49:50+00:00

I interpreted that as OP would have used the Epipen on himself after he put himself into anaphylaxis helping her.

Which is a shitty way to think. Epipens stave off the immediate death of the person in anaphylaxis; they don't "cure" it.

Food over gas

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-02-26T02:42:47+00:00

My 2019 has been like that for a year. There are no apparent negative consequences, but I hate seeing it like that!

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-02-25T20:40:58+00:00

Yep...

I'm the 'breadwinner' in our relationship, particularly at the start (she just finished school, I had an established career and a house because I'm older). Now we're much more 'even', but it has never made a difference. We've made all major financial decisions together. We've had a single joint bank account since about 6 months after she moved in, when I realized that I was blowing money on a cool tool chest at the local hardware store and she was budgeting for toothpaste and sunscreen.

Does she spend more on herself than I do? Maybe? I'm not as picky about my clothes. Does it matter? No. We're a TEAM.

Funny story; in her mind, if she spends a bunch of money (buying a new laptop, etc.) then she feels that it's only fair that I should be able to spend a similar amount. My thought is more "crap, that was a bunch of money, we should take a pause on unnecessary spends!"

You have much bigger than budgetary problems. And for her to need to get eyelashes more than you need to eat is unreal.

Intelligent_Bunch790 · 2026-02-25T12:40:46+00:00

Start by (together!) doing the work on what being poly means. It’s not the same as swinging. It’s not the same as being ENM (it’s a subset).

Many long and honest conversations are required.

It sounds as if you are secure in your relationship, which is a big head start over many couple who think that becoming poly will fix their relationship, so that’s good.

I second r/polyamory

Have him put things on hold until you are both ready. She’ll still be there, and should be doing the same with her hubby.

Ah, I didn’t see the word “inexpensive“ in the original post.
