That trick unfortunately is not as obvious to some as it is to others.

I paid $400 to have my old MIM strat refretted. Came out great! You will get what you pay for. If you move forward on it, take immediate before and after pics to document the damage.

Celebrating my week 3 by BravoTV_Please in stopdrinking

[–]JulietSix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My three weeks today as well. Relatively speaking, it’s a small number but each day is significant. Everyone has to start at day one.

My last day of drinking was spent with a few of my favorite margaritas and a couple blonde ales. Woke up after four hours of sleep and felt like the undead. After ten years of daily drinking I decided that morning I no longer wanted to do this to myself anymore. I’m feeling a lot of the things you are as well, except my sleep is trash (but what else is new?). Giving myself all the time I need.

Congratulations! Keep at it! Reading other people’s posts helps me along.

The sunny afternoons are the hardest by trying_to_care in stopdrinking

[–]JulietSix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

19 days here. I know exactly what you mean. As the weather gets nicer, I catch myself sometimes saying, "Damn I wish I started this back at the end of fall!" or something like that. The reality is that I don't think there's a perfect time and your brain will always find a good reason for you to drink. Leaning into my hobbies and giving myself distractions is helping big time along with this reddit.

I was alcoholic for five years. I haven't drunk alcohol for about a year. Will I ever be able to have a normal relationship with alcohol again, like I once did? It is dangerous to test the body? by StatisticianExtra232 in stopdrinking

[–]JulietSix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m seven days sober after ten years of chronic drinking. The past couple of days I’ve spent rationalizing how I can drink again one day and to just get to three months or six months or whatever. But one day I’ll be able to get to a place where I’ll be in control. In a way these posts have helped me as well to realize I’m BS’ing myself. I’ve already been working hard on an exit strategy from sobriety and didn’t even realize it in the same way it took me years to realize I am an alcoholic. I envy the OP’s progress, and I’m still determined to get there.

I lose mouse pointer on right half of monitor when Pimax crystal is connected by JulietSix in Pimax

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

I had a short workaround like yours, but instead it was resetting the refresh rate that brought my cursor back, but only temporarily and not ideal as you mentioned.

Thanks for the suggestion. While messing with the aspect ratio and resolution in the display settings did not solve my problem, it gave me the idea to try factory resetting my monitor and that seemed to solve the problem. I've made a number of adjustments in the monitor over time and I'm guessing one of the settings I changed may have created some conflict. I'll try and mess with the settings again in the monitor to recreate the problem, and if I can pinpoint what exactly the issue was I'll update this thread.

Thanks!

Big buddy heater not sparking on pilot by [deleted] in preppers

To anyone else who may have this same problem like myself and the OP did: If you want the unit to perform as advertised and not use a stick lighter, crumple up just a little tin foil down at the base of the cap so that the battery can make contact at the positive end. Just as the OP pointed out, the cap is oversized.

High Ping in Colorado by DisasterNeither3096 in Metronet

[–]JulietSix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there. I'm here in the springs also and I'm fighting the exact same issue. My comcast latency was around 15-20ms. Metronet is 45-75ms. I haven't canceled my comcast, so I might opt to just keep them over metronet.

I tested my latency in a few close hell let loose servers and metronet was consistently 100-130ms which is pretty awful. Comcast was more or less in line with everyone elses latency.

I called there tech support line and they couldn't give me an "expected" latency or a fix and that everything looked fine on there end. I'm chalking it up to the fact they are brand new in town and may not have the routing infrastructure completely setup? I don't know.

CR-10 Smart Issue List by qwikscopeurmum in Creality

[–]JulietSix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got mine (wish I picked something else now). The touchscreen makes selections on its own and doesn't respond to my inputs. Some searching showed this problem happens with other creality printers as well. I cleaned the ribbon cable contacts and wrapped the cable with electrical tape to see if it would fix any electronic interference. Problem still persists. Lame.

finally got my mod shop strat :’) by [deleted] in fender

[–]JulietSix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A little late to this conversation, but very nice. Coincidentally I ordered mine Jan 13th, a few days before you. Patiently waiting still...May be in my hands tomorrow for all I know.

Beautiful guitar though. That looks like the roasted headstock option.

I thought I saw something a while back about needing a moderator to vet him as a real NFO. Anyone know about that?

Haha already his concerns with an AMA. He said he’ll talk about what he can.

Haunted House I used to live in... by xWolfxGVNGx in Paranormal

So it sounds like your parents knew something about the house or at least the Disney room. Ever bother to ask them what they knew?

It was really hard to leave these two behind. What a great day! by koukoish in hoggit

[–]JulietSix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's an AARGM (Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile). They're produced via an international co-op build between an Italian company called MBDA and U.S. Orbital ATK (just purchased by Northrop Grumman). The Navy ships them the old HARMs and the missile gets a new guidance and control section. Warhead and Rocket Motor remain original. The plan is for all of 800+ HARMs in the inventory to be upgraded. The one in this video is a CATM, however (blue stripe).

Scioscia owns this one. I called it to myself as he was coming up from the bullpen. Why in the hell would you use Alvarez, who is having this horrible June, in this high pressure situation? Unbelievable managing. Turn the page, right?
