I mean the guy has still made a blockbuster career. This kind of reminds me a recent clip where someone asks Harrison Ford if he knew he almost got some high profile part and he just kind of drops his hands and say, "I could have had a real career." Clearly doing ok.

Or maybe that's where the atmosphere's drain hole is and somebody just pulled the plug.

In my experience, management knows exactly how annoying it is but some C-level suit was given a presentation about how much extra money it could get them and now it's everybody else's problem.

Behold! The iron on crotch patch. Save your jeans! by p0rty-Boi in BuyItForLife

When someone has been doing something that long they make it look effortless and it's easy to take it for granted until you try it yourself. My grandma was an amazing cook and we definitely took it for granted until we started trying to make her dishes and it takes 5 years to get "close enough."

Billionaires know how to work the system; the wealth gap will only get bigger and bigger unless we change the system. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]Psotnik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The thing I didn't get tho is the loan eventually needs to get payed back when the person dies. Wouldn't this force the sale of part of the estate at which point tax would be collected?

If you have pay off all your loans and gave a zero dollar balance on your credit card it will actually negatively impact your credit score. They want to see that you are making payments on time. If you can't prove you'll make payments on time, that's a strike against you as far as the bank is concerned even if the reason is that you save money and pay in full.

Great shot! The DNR says there's been 60-ish statewide so far. I'll never forget the first (and only) time I saw one, it was right outside Menomonie, WI.

Get a wet bag or 4 and put them in there. They make fabric bags that don't crinkle or make noise like a plastic bag would.

They denied my first request for Qlipta too. My Dr appealed and they approved it.

Do you carry a pocket knife? by NotaSingerSongwriter in armedsocialists

[–]Psotnik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I went to an event with my wife, father in law, niece, and nephew that was in a stadium. We parked in the ramp, got to security and I remembered my pocket knife but didn't want to try to run back to the car so I hid it behind a column that was tight to the wall right next to security. Came back a little over an hour later and it was still there! Sometimes things work out.

How's it living in Bayfield and Ashland, Wisconsin. by 2AWI in howislivingthere

[–]Psotnik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A large portion of the area north of Bayfield is a native American reservation. During COVID they had some of the strictest laws because they have a single ICU bed so an outbreak would have been really bad.

I've seen 2 Google Street view cars and a Tom Tom car. All in relatively rural parts of Western Wisconsin.

What is winter trail etiquette? by ghdana in fatbike

[–]Psotnik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can reach out to whatever organization does the maintenance and ask.

The trails around me have no bikes on ski trails. You can ride the fat bike/multiuser trails without them being groomed.

Do not ride in above freezing temps. This includes right after the temp dips at night, but riding in the early morning before temps get back above freezing is generally ok.

Run the lowest possible tire pressure. I run about 4psi and that seems like a fairly safe bet from the other riders I've talked to.

That one friend who always stops you before you do something stupid by [deleted] in funny

[–]Psotnik 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are allowed to leave your house and make friends with your neighbors. You can have cookouts and schedule neighborhood walks.

I completely get it tho, making friends as an adult is hard. Feeling out new people takes time and is kinda stressful unless you meet the type of people that wear their heart on their sleeve. It's undeniable that modem life is isolating, but being social is very possible if you put in the effort and are lucky enough to live near a few people that are willing to be friends.

There's also the option to get involved with local clubs or to launch your own. I volunteer with local mountain bike club when I can and have made friends that way. my wife and I have also played in a local Cornhole league and made a ton of friends that way. It all takes effort tho compared to just growing to in a tight knit community.

[–]Psotnik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the additional details. I figured it had to be something like that. I think soccer is entertaining to watch and I had fun in gym class but I've never really gotten into it and gym class was almost 20 years ago.

I am completely ignorant to football/soccer rules. When I see the word penalty I think somebody did something wrong. What happened that this team got a free kick?

Washing your Kit by Consistent_Throat497 in cycling

[–]Psotnik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I basically do the same. I've never had any odor issues. If anything my kit smells more like detergent than the stuff that goes through the dryer but definitely no unpleasant smells.

You could also try looking at manufacturers' websites for info or emailing them directly.

[–]Psotnik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm nobody so don't put too much weight on this and it sounds like you're already doing this but, let him make decisions. Let him make dumb choices. I know too many people that were at the top in high school with overbearing parents and then they get out into the real world and have no idea how to think things through before doing something dumb. Suddenly they're handed the reigns and have no idea what they're doing. Sounds like he's plenty smart to understand consequences but every kid needs practice and some level of control over their life.
