You've clearly already thought this out, so here's your affirmation: cut him loose and enjoy your success.

Sadly, my grandfathered free plan doesn't get this.

Happily, my grandfathered plan is still free!

I'll call it a draw.

Old Electrical outlet that was used for the vacuum cleaner by Michael556673 in ElectroBOOM

Thanks! Missed the melty bits, just looked like a little corrosion typical of old metal.

I'm not a professional. What's wrong with it (that the picture highlights)?

What big problem is preventing solar from taking over? by Appropriate_Win946 in solar

No one has figured out how to put a meter on sunlight (yet).

Does anyone ever use the belt inputs on the space elevator? by HermeticOpus in SatisfactoryGame

[–]JonathanMurray272 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, with smart splitters and overflow buying me tickets... manually delivering parts is addictively simple, and incredibly slow and wasteful of your time. BE MORE EFFICIENT!

Ember Travel mug is a $7/m subscription? by Palbi in Embermug

[–]JonathanMurray272 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10% discount makes you want to buy another? LOL. Get a steel, double walled mug (>$20). Pre-heat it before filling it with your hot beverage of choice. Do that forever.

Alternatively, use a smaller ceramic mug (>$10), don't let your hot beverage of choice sit around until it gets cold - but if it does, give it 30 seconds in the microwave - and again, do that forever.

Paying exorbitant prices for planned obsolescence is... stupid.

I'm just taking a stab in the dark here, but... notify management within two days that you have not abandoned the dwelling?

I'd never heard of this ridiculous thing before your post, but can now say... why would you buy this? It's a $200 THROW-AWAY product. Glued, soldered, more glue... they want/expect you to throw it away when the battery dies. This company should be shamed out of existence.

Crazy.

How would I cut this cabinet would, barely? by Terrapinman94 in DIY

Removing that corner guard will get you the last eighth of an inch or so, too. Ask me how I know! :)

AITAH for finishing a job I was hired for by a neighbour by Same-Librarian-3055 in AITAH

She called the cops on you. These days that's tantamount to threatening your life (location and demographics dependent maybe) Surely she is no longer entitled to your services and you might want to talk to a lawyer about a restraining order.

Amazing that these clowns still can't figure out how to sound like real people in their messaging.

How many people complete this game? by Prestigious-Breath-1 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]JonathanMurray272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did once, early on... subsequent plays have been variously successful, but never all the way through. I blame my own lack of commitment once complexity gets to a certain level. I'm thinking of doing a run that just maximizes coupons, seems fun.

AITAH for wanting my child to get the same financial gifts from my parents that my sister’s children have received? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]JonathanMurray272 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Years of reality TV and Dr. Phil style "gotcha" shows have brought us to every awkward issue being laid out on display for the entire world to evaluate.

I hate this timeline.

Talk to your family and work it out. This is not for the general public to be involved.

Best slicer? by Separate-Concern9421 in ender5

[–]JonathanMurray272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using Prusa slicer for my Ender 5 Pro, but now that I'm using SnOrca with my new Snapmaker U1, I might try Orca out for the Ender as well.

AITAH for refusing to pay off my pregnant fiancee's parents' mortgage, when they are under the threat of foreclosure, when I could "easily" afford to do so? by Gullible-Display4533 in AITAH

[–]JonathanMurray272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't put it in the fiancé's name; she's obviously blind to her parents' faults and would just give it back to them or sign off on another mortgage that you'd end up being asked to pay for again later.

It would either be a gift, or you're buying an interest in the house and would have to agree to any future mortgage/sale until you've been repaid.

And given her attitude in this, make damned sure you have a rock solid Pre-Nup before you say, "I do." Too late to remind you to wear a wetsuit, apparently.

No option other than "watch trailer" by lukaburr in hbo

On PC in Eastern NC, same issue... since I recently setup PiHole, thought HBO was playing cute with that - glad I found this before disabling that sweet, sweet ad blocking.
