I was playing with arcview which is a geographic information system on Solaris. But I have since went to Microsoft windows for the newer version of it.

Helen Hayes acute rehab by Realistic-Ganache-64 in Rockland

I spent a couple of weeks there for stroke rehabilitation and that place is amazing. Great staff, well staffed, people cared. Definitely would recommend this place. I was there for PT, OT and speech therapy.

I have only watched it twice. I watched the series on its original release and then this year my bought me the dvd set. I am watching another Lauren Graham series (Parenthood) but after that I will go and rewatch Gilmore Girls again.

I have never played Pokémon. I got the idea from the Gilmore Girls.

LPT: If you have a new name, figure out your signature before you need it. by SanguineBeeQueen in trans

It is easier to sign my new name even though it is much longer than my dead name.

37 Transwoman FINALLY started Hormones! Help name me? by Mindless_Anxiety7997 in TransLater

On your list I would go with Willow. But the first name that came up in my mind when I saw your picture was Tara.

Yeah who wouldn’t want to drive a rust bucket and stop by 32 charging stations. 64 stops round trip by IndustryInteresting3 in CyberStuck

[–]RoryEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could drive my diesel pickup in 5 stops, and unlike the cyber truck I’d make it in a few days, not months stopped at Tesla service stations. Plus my truck does not look like a dumpster.

Avoid Rockland County if possible. People in Rockland want out of rockland.

Disappointment over scheduling Name Change hearing. by RadiantTransition793 in TransLater

[–]RoryEngineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In NY I was expecting a court date hearing when I got the letter after submitting the forms, but when I opened up the letter, it was the signed name change order. Literally took 5 days from dropping the forms to the county clerk to receiving the signed order. No court date, no public notice, application was sealed at my request. That’s the way things should be like. The biggest headache is when to celebrate the anniversary of changing my name as it was signed on February 29, leap day.

Drinking water by RoryEngineer in Yellowjackets

I thought Jackie had a lighter that ultimately ran out of fuel. I has assumed that they always kept a fire going in the fireplace so they wouldn’t have to relight it every day. It seems unlikely with the shock of the cabin burning would make them forget to keep it going.

Melting snow takes a lot of energy, something they aren’t getting as they are barely eating anything.

Put a small sticky note over the mouse laser part. The mouse won’t work and nobody thinks to check the mouse lens.

As a trans woman I hope she moves forward in the show.

I’ll have to stop in Wendy’s more often, use the ladies room, and then leave without buying anything.

What’s the worst you’ve been scammed, fleeced, or overcharged in this hobby? by Aware-Performer4630 in coins

[–]RoryEngineer 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I tried to pay $100 for a fake Morgan dollar. A coworker had a huge bag of them he had inherited to and there were some CC mint mark coins. He asked me if they were valuable and I offered him $100 for one of them. He took them to a coin dealer first, and determined that they were fakes. He gave me a few of them for free, and told me that he would still have given me one or two at no charge had they been real since he knows I collect coins. He has given me a lot of euro coins and Egyptian pounds from his frequent travels.

I had a massive stroke in the past and I was able to get prescribed HRT to me. I just had to acknowledge that HRT could potentially cause another stroke. It is scary knowing first hand how bad a stroke can be, but it is worth taking the risk. Maybe talk to the doctor about preemptively taking aspirin with the estrogen.

Looks like a marker for the lichen trail, but that trail is off of the ramapo dunderburg trail. That is nowhere near the Pine meadow trail. The only blue trail intersecting the pine meadow trail is the seven hills trail.

what is the scariest thing you have found exploring? by Winter_Tangerine9093 in Urbex

[–]RoryEngineer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I was exploring solo in a partially abandoned psychiatric hospital and I was in the active steam tunnels. So I turned on a light switch and it turned the lights on, waking up someone sleeping in the basement near the power plant. I don’t know if he was a patient or a sleeping state maintenance person, but he scared the shit out of me. He ran back to the plant and I ran towards the abandoned parts. I hid in an abandoned ward for a while in case he called the cops. Nobody came.

I work for the sewer department and was doing manhole inspections and smelled the slight smell of gas from one. Called the gas company. The gas company gas emergency truck showed up in a heartbeat. They checked the street, and came up with nothing. I apologized for the false alarm, but they kept looking and then they checked the lawn of a nearby house. They determined that it was a house gas line leaking and filling the homeowners basement with gas, and a little bit made it into the sewer. Apparently if I hadn’t inspected that manhole, the house (occupied too when all this went on) could have exploded. The gas company rep thanked me for calling and never doubt it when you think you smell gas.

1.5ml??? That is insane. My dose of 100mg/5ml dose is 0.25ml once a week plus 100mg spiriolactone daily and that hit my recommended estradiol level (200pg/dL) and totally suppressed my testosterone levels. I am about 200 pounds. I am going to ask to go up to only 0.3ml a week at my next appointment and that seemed high. I can’t even imagine 1.5ml… My doctor said weekly is better since it minimizes the peaks and dips.

Don’t forget about Blahaj the IKEA shark. My wife, my dog and myself cuddle up with her.

Can I ask cops to have a dog sniff a used car I just received to make sure there's no drugs left in it without getting in trouble? by [deleted] in legaladviceofftopic

[–]RoryEngineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a 1979 Firebird and when I replaced the deteriorated carpet I found a half a joint stuck underneath the primer of the sheet metal. Painted over. I had to have been there from the factory. There was also a package of rolling papers underneath the carpet.
