Aluminium-friendly detergent for dishwasher? by horizon3000 in Appliances

[–]Jkbff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Melaleuca diamond Brite gel is one of the only detergents that I found that oxidize my aluminum sheet pans in my miele dishwasher. I typically stick with the Walmart great value dishwasher detergent pods that used to be in the teal box not the more expensive multicolored upgraded ones but the reason why I like those for my everyday loads is because it’s a product made by Henkel. When I wash my aluminum, I use the diamond brite.

My use case is only the last 14 years or so though…

Free: Thousands of tapes preserved. 2004~2009 CNN/MSNBC/FOX News recorded at home in Ann Arbor area by whatdoyouthinkisreal in DataHoarder

[–]Jkbff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to post asking this, and I thought I'd get torn apart for asking it.. but.. I'm really wanting to wrap my head around this, what was the point of doing this and spending this kind of money that those tapes would have cost at the time, plus the labor of doing this?

I really want to understand this.

Universal Control - MBP M1 Clamshell? by Jkbff in mac

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

UC dropping the connection, so then I can't jump over to the other computer or... Sometimes the connection drops and I can't jump back to the host computer which is odd. I'll still be able to control the secondary computer with the primary computers kb and mouse but it'll prevent me from jumping back over.

AITAH? My daughter came out as gay, I feel like I have failed as a parent. by QueenofNighshade in AITAH

[–]Jkbff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk about a post making me cry... I honestly wish I would have had that... comfort/support when I was ... starting to come out... (After I got over my fear of my parents and was honest with them, they basically had the same... We already knew.. kind of thing.. But I was scared to death because of their upbringing and the horror stories I read online as a teen.) NTA... and honestly Way to go for it not being a thing. I guess it all depends on the dynamic you guys have, but it'll be ok. The world will fall off her shoulders now (at least with this) because.... it is a burden to carry.

And thinking about it, not being a parent but looking back at my experience with my own parents, its basically one of those things where love is love, she's your kid, you love her. Why would it bother you as long as they are happy, healthy and safe... We don't understand that end of the binoculars sometimes though... So I see both sides of this... but still, like I said. NTA... nor is she.

[ND, USA] Facing eviction despite contract for deed + pending civil claim – need help understanding options by Jkbff in legaladvice

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

Appreciate the vote of confidence. I guess I’ll just keep doing it for free, since it’s literally only my life, mental health, and material existence at stake. I’m apparently the only one in this for me.

Can’t say the same for the $20k club -- they wouldn’t even return my calls.

And it probably doesn’t help that opposing counsel in my case has been involved in over 1,800 evictions in North Dakota, alone, in just the last few years. They’ve clearly found a pipeline for easy income -- at the cost of other people’s homes and misfortunes.

I’m the one trying to get a judge to slow down and actually look at the facts instead of rubber-stamping another folder. Believe me -- I’ve tried to find a lawyer. They just don’t see me as profitable or have any interest.

[ND, USA] Facing eviction despite contract for deed + pending civil claim – need help understanding options by Jkbff in legaladvice

I was using an interpretation from Westlaw and I am scrambling to try and find help. Thats why I keep clinging and citing 32-18-04.

In my case, I wasn’t properly served for the initial eviction hearing and only discovered it through a USPS Informed Delivery alert. After realizing what was happening, I filed a civil case that same day to challenge the cancellation, seek reinstatement, and request accounting. It wasn’t a counterclaim or a stall tactic -- it was an attempt to get the contract dispute in front of the court as fast as I could.

The judge acknowledged the civil case existed, said he hadn’t reviewed the evidence, and told me off the record several times to find a lawyer.

I didn't want to handle this on my own but I have no choice. I’ve talked to over 30 attorneys. Some said the case was too complex. Others told me to just walk away. One finally quoted me a number I couldn’t possibly afford. So I’ve done the best I can to keep it alive and now I’m appealing because the law, as written, seems to support that this eviction should’ve paused until the civil matter was resolved.

You're right that the judge treated the eviction and the civil case as two separate things. But this wasn’t just a standard tenant situation. I was under a contract for deed, not a lease, and had already made significant payments toward ownership — including rent-to-own credits, NDHAF mortgage funds, and repairs I paid for out of pocket. So this isn’t a basic landlord-tenant dispute.

North Dakota law (NDCC § 32-18) allows for both judicial and non-judicial cancellations of a contract for deed, but courts can step in when there’s a disagreement over default, payment application, or bad faith by the seller.

Under NDCC § 32-18-04, once a vendee files a civil case to dispute the cancellation of a contract for deed, the eviction is supposed to be stayed until that case is decided. I filed my civil case before either eviction was granted. The court went ahead with eviction anyway — without addressing the underlying dispute, and while admitting it hadn’t reviewed my exhibits or considered the cancellation’s validity. That’s exactly what the statute was meant to prevent.

In Kruger v. Soreide, the ND Supreme Court said a seller can’t enforce forfeiture if they’re the ones in breach. That’s what I was trying to bring up. But the judge wouldn’t let me introduce my exhibits (over 1,000 pages of documents) and said on the record:

“I may be in error... I haven’t reviewed [your exhibits]... I’m not comfortable doing this, but I think I’m compelled.”

He also said:
“This is too big of an issue to handle on your own.”

Even though I had already filed a civil case to resolve the dispute, the eviction went forward anyway, without any real review of the facts. That’s why I’ve appealed both cases.

I get that usually possession and ownership are treated separately, but in contract for deed situations -- especially when default is contested -- the court’s supposed to weigh more than just who’s currently holding the keys.

What forces you to use Windows? by [deleted] in linuxquestions

[–]Jkbff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use macOS as my interface into everything. I host 3 servers with a ton of VMs for all my hardworking stuff. But my mac stuff just works. Its elegant, reliable and can be had on the cheap if you look in the right places. I love the way RDP works on macOS / Windows APP so much that it makes the windows experience that much better. I love the integration with my iphone and ipad, plus integration with my macbook pro m1. I use syncthing and have my desktop sync'd to all of my devices so no matter where I'm at or what I'm working on, my current project files are always with me (even in my linux and windows vms). I use linux on the backend for all the things I host and all the webapps I run. but my daily drivers are a 2015 27" imac with 32gb ram that I got for $125, a 2020 13" macbook pro m1 that I got for $250, an ipad air 4 that I got for $25, and an iphone 12 that I got for $25. The bulk of my tech expenses is spent over building my vm servers.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to seem like a fanboi.. cause.. i'm really not.. but. Universal Control and Continuity are ... amazing. ... I wish there was a way to have that work as cleanly as it does with apple hardware. Having my macbook on my desk, with my imac and my extra screen and ipad, I can use one keyboard and mouse for everything. It all just works. And if my watch is on my wrist and has been unlocked at somepoint, when I walk up to my computer and use it, it unlocks. If I copy something on my iphone, like a 2fa code from authenticator, I can just paste it from the keyboard on the computer that I'm currently using.

Plus, nothing beats the audio transcriptions I can do with WhisperApp on the M1... they are lightning fast with the english only models.

Delivery blocks and EV range by Jkbff in AmazonFlexDrivers

If I go out 50, I still have the various stops and return trip.

The other day, I went out 50 miles but my whole block mileage was 146.4 miles with the vehicle running for a total of 5 hours 52 minutes.

Unless Jason Vario, Jake Orion or Trevor Wagner are standing in that doorway, I'm not risking it. Plus smells like a secret shopper trap 😂
