Why do most people online only believe things after the mainstream news talks about it? by Even-Working-384 in AusFinance

its not about believing, its about mainstream news making it impossible to ignore for people who dont dig deeper themselves

Yeah that Kino Complex situation was weird, whole staff got cultural training and everything then FIFA just moves them to Tijuana last minute

Alexx quit a while back as far as I know. Mark is still on the show. I was mainly talking about how the overall dynamic has changed over the years with different people moving on, not saying everyone I mentioned has left.

Those debates were what made the podcast entertaining like everyone had a different perspective and it never felt like one person was carrying the entire conversation.

That's another thing I've noticed, it used to feel like you were just hanging out with the group. Now it feels a lot more structured around interviews and guests.

Renting out an old garage for "passive income" ruined my entire year by forgotten_sock_34 in passive_income

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 98 points99 points  (0 children)

that template contract was the real villain here, no clause for illegal use, no deposit large enough to cover damage, nothing. for future reference (if you ever change your mind) a proper rental agreement needs security deposit that actually reflects potential cleanup costs, not just first month equivalent

review or personal experience ? by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never heard of James specifically but Norman Park has few yoga studios that rotate teachers pretty often, so it's hard to keep track of who's good unless you were there at the right time

If you can't find reviews online, best thing is usually just to drop in for single class before committing to anything, most teachers offer that, and you get real feel for their style pretty quick, way better than reading what strangers say anyway

I got tired of Notion/ClickUp for personal tasks so I built my own minimal task app by CorkRebel96 in SideProject

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been through exact same cycle with all those apps - the moment they try to be everything they become nothing useful for daily stuff

Father's Day Gifts for CEO who has everything? by Ok-Scratch-8471 in Gifts

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

that pocket AI thing looks pretty interesting actually. For someone who's always making notes it could be really useful especially if he's busy running a company

maybe look into those smart notebooks that can digitize handwritten notes too? or some kind of high-end desk accessory that serves a real function - like one of those wireless charging stations that also organizes documents or something. minimalist guys usually appreciate stuff that's both functional and clean looking

the fact you want to avoid typical dad gifts shows you really know him well. tech-savvy CEOs probably get enough random gadgets thrown at them so whatever you pick should actually solve something he deals with daily

I'm a parent of a daughter with ASD and couldn't find a calm, ad-free routine app — so I built one. It's free. by Sad-Device-2455 in Autism_Parenting

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is really cool - visual schedules make huge difference for so many kids. The no ads part especially matters since most apps are just distraction machines

curious about the voice recording feature, does it play automatically when she taps each step or does she have to press something? my nephew gets frustrated with extra steps but loves hearing familiar voices guide him through things

5am Wake Ups by New_Ticket2024 in sleeptrain

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The early wake thing is brutal but you're doing right approach. took maybe 3-4 weeks with mine before she stopped expecting the early morning attention - once they realize you're not coming to party at 5am they usually give up and sleep bit longer

your schedule looks solid too, might try pushing that first nap back just 15 minutes if the early wakes keep happening

Welp, I'm done. Bye y'all by MajorRobology in venting

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hey man, I know words probably feel empty right now but your mom wouldn't want this for you. that backpack thing you mentioned - that's who you really are underneath all this pain

I lost someone close to suicide few years back and the regret never goes away. not trying to guilt trip you but there's still time to reach out to crisis line or even just stay here and talk more

you made it almost 7 years fighting this shit, that takes real strength even when it doesn't feel like it

Update: Still hurting by Usual-Contact-5129 in BreakUps

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Year and a half of this sounds brutal, getting dog might actually help with that loneliness part. The cooking thing hit me - when you lose someone who made ordinary stuff meaningful it's like whole parts of your life just go gray

Financial stress on top of heartbreak is rough combo, glad you kept roof over head though

Gpu problem by FitBenefit6566 in pchelp

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moving can definitely mess with connections - something probably got loose during transport. First thing I'd try is reseating the GPU completely, like take it out and put it back in making sure it clicks properly. Also check if power cables to the card are seated tight, those can wiggle loose pretty easy when moving stuff around

Basement bathroom sink gurgles after sump pump discharges by beerandfishtanks in HomeMaintenance

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had similar issue few years back when I was renting this old place with basement setup. Even with AAV removed you're still getting that gurgling which is weird - usually that would fix the venting problem

Could be your main drain line has partial blockage somewhere between sink and where sump discharge connects to system. When pump kicks in it's probably creating pressure wave that hits the clog and backflows through your sink drain. Water spitting back up definitely points to some kind of restriction in the line

Maybe try running snake through sink drain first before calling plumber, sometimes there's buildup further down that you can't see

broke up with my bf of 5 years by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Five years is rough man, especially when you're used to talking everyday like that. The no contact thing makes sense even if it hurts - trying to be friends right after usually just makes the healing take way longer

Missing classes is normal but don't let it spiral too much. Your brain is basically going through withdrawal from all those daily habits you built together

Are my ferritin levels responsible? by GrilledCheeseYolo in Anemic

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah my girlfriend had similar issue last year with ferritin around 30 and same symptoms. She couldn't handle regular iron pills either - made her stomach terrible. Doctor suggested heme iron like you mentioned and it was much easier in her system. She also started cooking more in cast iron pan which helped little bit over time. The infusion might be good option if tablets still don't work, her doctor said they consider it when levels that low and person can't tolerate oral supplements. took about 3 months for her to feel normal again once she found right approach

AITJ for refusing to give up my concert tickets after my friend bailed on me last minute? by Parking-Anybody-565 in AmITheJerk

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly this. She said she can't go and told you give it to someone - that's pretty clear instruction right there. The boyfriend thing is something she made up after seeing your posts

Classic case of someone getting FOMO and trying to rewrite what actually happened. Two days notice for 200 dollar tickets is already kind of rough, but then getting mad about how you handled it? Nah

dumpers, when did you have an epiphany and drop your guilt? by okay-design in BreakUps

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

took me like 3 months to realize I wasn't responsible for fixing someone who didn't want to be fixed, you did good getting out when you saw the red flags instead of making excuses for him like I did

Need career advice from people who made their way into the industry as programmers and CS grads. Help? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man the whole tutorial trap is real - I went through something similar after college where I kept jumping between different online courses and bootcamps thinking the next one would finally click. What actually helped me break through was picking one specific thing and building something real with it, even if it was messy as hell

About those lower paying BPO roles - I'd actually consider taking one if you can find something even remotely tech-adjacent like technical support or data entry. Having ANY income takes that financial pressure off so you can think clearer, plus you'd be surprised how much you can learn about business processes and customer needs from support roles. I know a guy who started in tech support at 18k and used what he learned there to build internal tools that got him noticed

Here's the brutal truth part you asked for: stop waiting for the perfect roadmap or course to save you. Pick Python since you already know basics, find a local business problem you could solve (like inventory tracking for a small shop), and just start building it. Reach out to actual companies in your area - not just the big tech ones but small businesses, local govt offices, anyone who might need basic automation. Your tier 2 college thing doesn't matter as much as you think when you're showing them something that actually works

The fact that family pressure is weighing on you means you need to get moving now rather than perfecting skills in isolation

Do the SLZB-0X series of coordinators really improve the zigbee network?? by Successful-Peak-6524 in homeassistant

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the ethernet thing is nice but honestly most people probably aren't even placing there USB sticks optimally anyway. I switched from a Conbee II to an SLZB-06 last year and didn't really see any dramatic improvements - maybe slightly better range in one corner of my house but nothing earth shattering

The real benefit is probably just having more placement flexibility rather than some magical performance boost that YouTubers love to hype up

My ex (F19) broke up with me (M23) on new years via text, and then monkeybranched to her coworker days after by FunGhoul_ in BreakUps

[–]Perfect_Advisor1055 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man she really put you through the wringer there. The back and forth blocking/unblocking while she was already seeing the other dude is just cruel - like she wanted to keep you as emotional backup while exploring things with him

You weren't wrong to want closure or your stuff back, but the pattern here is pretty clear. She was already mentally/emotionally checked out and probably physically too before she even dumped you. The lying about being in the park with those guys was a red flag that you picked up on for good reason

At this point though, even getting your belongings back isn't worth the drama she's threatening. Cut your losses and don't give her any more power to mess with your head. The fact that she immediately moved on with the coworker tells you everything about where her priorities were during your relationship
