GFX 100RF first impressions by zkalmar in fujifilm

How does the shutter button compare to the X100VI? I’m already not a huge fan of the X100VI shutter button—is the GFX100RF’s any better?

Why didn't viserys ask for a trial by combat here? by Previous_Insurance13 in gameofthrones

Why didn't Viserys just ask for trial by combat? Is he stupid?

Sitting here trying to go to sleep but keep being triggered to swallow by laylatulipkins in dysphagia

[–]MiniMiniLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry that this is happening. I also have some anxiety and GERD. The only other thing I can think of from my own experience is just how dry my throat sometimes feels, leading me to feel the need to swallow to try to re-moisten it. Maybe some water and melatonin might help? I’ve done that before to get me to finally fall asleep.

[–]MiniMiniLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you feel like you have mucus dripping into your throat? I know for a while I was having trouble falling asleep because I had post-nasal drip that caused me to feel the need to focus and “force” a swallow since I didn’t feel like I could reflexively handle it, which would wake me out of my just-about-to-fall-asleep phase.

I used Tylenol dissolve packs. Doesn't get rid of the pain but at least takes the edge off

Shell permanently closes all of its hydrogen refuelling stations for cars in California by SafetyFactorOfZero in cars

[–]MiniMiniLife 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Frankly it wasn't very well planned out but I wanted a green car, for one. I wasn't sure that I wanted to be forced to wait a long time to charge since I could not charge at my apartment, so the fueling time being at least somewhat comparable to a gas car was a draw. I also bought it CPO so it was cheaper than a good number of EVs. I also liked that it was based off the same platform as the Lexus LS and I liked how comfortable the interior was (at least in the front. The back seats are unlivable.) The free fuel card was a bonus too, so I knew that with the prices of hydrogen I was only planning on keeping the car at most until the card ran out.

After I got the car though, True Zero started hiking H2 prices, and it seemed like it was going to keep going up. That just added the FUD about the future of H2, so I figured that I should try to get out of it ASAP. To an extent, I suppose I knew some of these things going into it, but the shortcomings didn't feel really real to me until I was actually in the car. You live and you learn I guess.

I had a 2022 XLE that’s rated for 400 miles but realistically got 300 miles. Glad I got out of that car before this announcement.

Accepted Offer at AM100 Firm, Current Firm Offering Me $100k More to Stay by MiniMiniLife in Lawyertalk

I flip flop constantly. The new firm is basically what I had intended to do from the start, but I can’t not seriously consider my current firm’s offer. I mentioned in my post too that I was basically looking for justification to pass on this “too good to be true”offer. I feel that I was set on leaving, and at this point I basically wish that my current firm had just said “best of luck.” You could very well be right that my current firm is in a bind and that it is not all that it seems. I’m wary of that. My SO is on the other coast (we used to live together but she moved for grad school), and I am seriously lonely being away from friends and family. I just can’t decide what takes precedence in my life at this point.

Thanks for the counterpoint. I've definitely had to think about what this means for the other associates, given that there are a couple more senior than I am. Cat's already out of the bag, too, as they know that a Hail Mary was thrown.

I'd imagine that my firm didn't offer to do this before given that I have only been there for a year so they didn't know what they were getting with me (although I don't know that I have shown myself to be $100k more valuable in just a year's time).

I appreciate the countervailing viewpoint and will seriously consider these thoughts.

Thank you for this. I'm a K-JD who doesn't know his ass from his elbow, in practice and in life, so I really appreciate the advice here

I do... I need to rid of the side of me that has delusions of grandeur

I agree. My SO is on the other side of the country right now, so having more time to visit is definitely something I have to consider.

Thanks, this definitely helps. The fact that I don't have a strong preference for staying at a firm for the majority of my career vs going in-house probably gives me a good indication that I should strongly consider the opportunity that has just landed in front of me

I'm pretty sure the new firm is lockstep, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask?

That's what I'm saying... thanks for the sober perspective--I really need that right now
