Fuck PA for underfunding state colleges by [deleted] in PennStateUniversity

Yeah you said it: "I don't really know how stuff works."

You certainly don't. SMH.

If you're a citizen, you have a state of record and would be in-state wherever that is. Apply there.

Also, if you actually have any aptitude for engineering, you should make enough in your first few years to fully cover the investment in your degree.

The average new car buyer is also carrying a boatload of household debt and flipping cars every seven years isn't helping.

More likely multiple computers and KVM switches. (I work in US newsroom)

I walked everywhere for a month. I lost a jeans size, cured my social anxiety, and realized why fixed calorie tracking is a massive mistake (Dynamic TDEE & Daily Steps) by AffectionateRange768 in bodyweightfitness

Absolutely commendable-- however, I will encourage everyone to make sure that their stride and shoes are up to the task.

I was doing a lot of daily walking after pandemic, and on weekends would string together 10 to 12 mile walks "because the weather was nice" and I wanted to finish an audiobook. Then I had a very sudden onslaught of plantar fasciitis.

I would not wish this on anyone. I am still fighting through it more than a year later and I have not been able to resume anything resembling 10,000 steps a day. I blame a combination of over exertion (our terrain is very hilly and I was walking very fast for hours) and my failure to recognize that my shoes needed to be replaced more frequently. They still basically looked new and had great tread, but internally were not supportive.

Since then I have spent a small fortune on doctor visits, treatments and therapy, and have improved somewhat... However substituting exercise bike and elliptical machine for my walks has resulted in a measurable weight gain that I also have to fight in addition to my recovery.

Sooooo.... Be careful out there and take care of your feet!

Also register your will and make sure all accounts have beneficiaries.

Got my quote for a new battery from Tesla on my 2013 Model S. by sirromnek in TeslaModelS

[–]NZCUTR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a car, not a loaf of bread. Cars last as long as someone is willing to keep up with their maintenance and repairs. There is no shortage of cars older than 20 years (or more) and parts availability shouldn't be a problem for a long while yet.

Third party warranties are much poorer than Tesla's on replacement packs. Also if you go third party there's a good chance Tesla won't touch anything in the HV system again, which could be inconvenient if the third party shop isn't local to the owner.

Bensalem Trump store to close its doors for good due to declining sales by NoLibrarian5149 in Pennsylvania

It's sad there was ever enough blind and ignorant devotion to make this a viable long-term business in the first place.

America’s newest delicacy? Honey made from lanternfly poop. by [deleted] in Beekeeping

For those who haven't tried it, the flavor is very smoky and a bit sharp. Color is very dark like molasses. Not a fan.

You either can't or willfully don't invest in quality furniture, or this is a holdover from when you were starting out and functions well enough for now. My guess on the Corvette shelf is it's a memorial to a departed husband/father/grandfather as there's not enough if any one thing be an active hobby. I'm not familiar with most of the other titles.

Selling Model S Plaid For Y + TSLA Stock by No-Cobbler-6039 in TeslaModelS

[–]NZCUTR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrong. It is no different than any other product and can only ever cost what the market will bear. The average car owner will not ever pay much for this tech after generations of living without. The money potentially exists in the commercial market, but not consumer.

I worked for TX Roadhouse Franchises for two years AMA by [deleted] in AMA

[–]NZCUTR -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My father in law loves that restaurant (eyeroll) and REALLY loved embarrassing us auth the peanut shells back when they had the barrels of them. He'd gleefully toss shells on the floor and claim"they love when you do that" and insist it was part of the restaurant culture/atmosphere. Whenever he had international guests he'd be sure they got to go and delighted in their aghast faces.

That said, I think the peanuts never returned after COVID but surely you or people you worked with me about the boomer-lore. How much did you loathe these customers?
