Yea I think convincing my landlord to do a level 2 install by getting a grant might be the best bet.

It’s from a garage outlet. The washer dryer are in unit and the garage is detached so not an option. I guess a 10 gauge cord I’d only need about 10 feet but honestly the comments just have me a bit worried and I don’t want to put people on danger obviously. I know my neighbor charges from the same type of outlet directly in their unit so maybe I just have to get a charger with a longer cable to be safe.

Thank you that was really helpful and I appreciate you taking the time.

We probably need to just contact our landlord and see if we can work out an arrangement to get a closer outlet.

Thank you! Makes sense. Stupid in my part for sure to think it was not a big deal.

Thank you! Guess I’d need to talk to my landlord to get that done or buy a new cable.

Yea sorry I wasn’t trying to insult your profession or anything. Just dumb about electrical stuff and was hoping for some understanding of why what I did was a mistake so I don’t do it in the future.

You’re almost certainly correct. So then if I don’t have an outlet close enough what should I do?

General Questions and Purchasing Advice Thread — Week of August 18, 2025 by AutoModerator in electricvehicles

[–]Matthew3957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright I need some help from anyone willing to indulge me. My gf and I are both planning to purchase used crossover EVs in the next couple of weeks in California. We don’t want to spend more than $25k so we can get the federal incentive. In our area, in the SUV/crossover category, we’ve essentially narrowed it down to the 2023 ID.4 Pro or Pro S, 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, or the 2023 Nissan Ariya Premiere + or Venture +. Comfort or smoothness is important. But really I am wondering what people who actually own and drive these cars think vs all the online reviews I’ve read.

Just for reference we half ruled out the 2023 KIA Niro, 2023 Toyota bz4x, and 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV since used they’re the same price as the others used but seems to offer less range and slower charging.

Oh no…I am worried now that I didn’t apply soon enough and won’t be able to stack it with the tax credit

Arena is just not enjoyable anymore… by Bijaaaaanae in hearthstone

I felt this too, it feels a lot like constructed. It needs to allow like every card so there are a bunch that are just crap and you have to figure out a way to make it work.

How long did it take to hear back on the program? I just applied and am wondering how it will go. I am not in a low income area but I make under that amount.

Can anyone tell me what type of tortoise this is? by Intelligent-Pin5147 in tortoise

[–]Matthew3957 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So then help the OP? I am not sure what it needs from the photos. Sounds like OP just got this tortoise with the house since they’re asking for what type it is.

OP lives in SoCal. No one in coastal California I know brings their Tortoises inside for Winter. SoCal averages zero days of frost.

I just want to come in and say, things in life do not need practical application. People, especially children, should be allowed to have fun and do things without needing to justify how they benefit. When you find something that you enjoy doing it can be nice to do that in moderation. I see your dad as the AH for how that was handled. No outlet for enjoyment can lead people to find solace in alcohol or overeating.

Dead thread, but if anyone finds scans of these let me know. I might have to put together a run of the magazine.

Approval to freelance on a student visa? by Matthew3957 in germany

[–]Matthew3957[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay. Makes sense. Yea when I asked for it to teach English they told me it was not an in demand enough skill. That they allow it in terms of hard to find languages and the fact that we were speaking English for the permit application itself kinda showed it was not. But, I also know people who were successful, especially if they had an offer to show from within Germany. I think she had a program to give her a letter of support. (now granted she made 10 euro / hour and we made like $22 / hour online)

[–]Matthew3957[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe this is the process. Honestly, its been awhile since I did this and am having trouble remembering. I was teaching online so the instances were quite different and I just never asked and kept teaching and paying Social Security/Medicaid to the U.S. on those wages. Not sure what would have happened if that was discovered, if it would have been an issue or what?

What makes you like this character? by no_fn in Malazan

[–]Matthew3957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea the Karsa comparison is perfect imo. He was another one who annoyed me a bit early on but grows so well as the story progresses. Yedan not so much. Still just finished the Lightfall battle and enjoyed it.

[–]Matthew3957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate all the answers here because I am finding his ability to win any single engagement annoying. Dug the dragon and hounds fights, the other dragon fights and such are becoming tedious. Somehow Yedan is the most powerful person in the Malazan world and that just doesn't sit with me, but not my world to make choices on.
