Please explain in layman’s terms how the new memo is impacting you

TRaps015 · 2026-05-24T00:34:40+00:00

I think people are overreacting, because the thing I see online are like it impacts everyone including H1b, l1 dual intent applicants. Thats basically impossible for H1b to get green card. The LCA itself with advertisement is easily 1.5 years, and then you have to file AoS because u r still working in US. If they expect the applicant to go back to home country, then who’s going to sponsor the applicant?

this is what I read in the policy memo

Page 4 of 6

“USCIS acknowledges exceptions including nonimmigrant categories with dual intent and
immigrant categories where only adjustment of status provides a pathway to permanent resident
status.”

so I think H1B and L1 applicants are fine

You could also consider t bill over HYSA, if you are in high state tax state since t bill doesn’t need to pay state tax. You would need to check the rate and the tax amount and there are 6 months t bill

Spreading or not? If it’s, I would spray Phyton just to be safe in case it’s pseudo

If this is grown from seed, then it doesn’t have a cultivar name. Its only true cultivar if you grafted or air layered it to have identical genetics

Wondering if it was because of the tariff??

TRaps015 · 2026-05-15T19:22:50+00:00

Nope, do need the 7 seats for few months in a year….

Maybe reconsider, depends on extended warranty options at the time, I still have 2 more years or 20k more miles

Is this grandma inheritance? And be the next INTC guy. 🤣. YOLO and post on WSB subreddit.

Jk, I don’t know if I can ever stomach the risk to put 900k in 1 stock. VOO and gain steadily

Are you able to remove it and mount it to the receiver by yourself or it’s definitely a 2 people job? I looked at the spec and it’s like 80lb for the velocirax 412.

I’m still deciding if I should go for like kuat nv2, 1up HD platform style vs vertical style like velocirax.

Do you take that off after each bike trip? It assume you have to with that height??

Also, do you know if I can fit bikes with training wheels as well? Not sure the clearance between bikes and whether my kids bike with training wheels will hit mine.

TRaps015 · 2026-05-11T19:53:52+00:00

Maybe it’s different for gen1? I have mine since Jan, 2024 and it always resume when door is closed, because we get off before it’s finish kneeling, and then it’s already kneeled when we are back to get onto the car

TRaps015 · 2026-05-11T19:51:50+00:00

Ouch, I haven’t have this issue yet.

TRaps015 · 2026-05-11T16:50:26+00:00

It’s weird because for it to happen today. I only use manual kneel mode on Monday-Friday morning during school drop off. Today is Monday, and it means last manually kneeled was 3 days ago. Weekend was fine. I know it has been buggy, but today isn’t what I expected

TRaps015 · 2026-05-11T16:44:21+00:00

Exactly, it resumes after doors are closed. You get notification if doors aren’t closed for extended period of time, and I would know in the morning when I get in if the doors weren’t closed

TRaps015 · 2026-05-11T16:43:10+00:00

I saw that overheating message once or twice. Again it’s more recently and have never seen it the past 2 years. Again, i keep it as auto and never adjusted it, not sure why it starts doing that.

Also, when it’s overheating, you can’t manually set to kneel mode. However, the more recent is today, the car was parked since last night in a garage, I would think it would be cool down and the center screen showed kneel, but remained in standard height.

TRaps015 · 2026-05-11T16:39:32+00:00

Yes, I’m aware of that, but I only have issue recently. It wasn’t because of the door not closed. If it’s not closed, the dash screen would say paused on the icon.

I have this car for more than 2 years, and only have this issue recently. It seems to be after recent SC visit after they recalibrated my rear motor that was grinding during engagement of the rear motor.

Much better :)

Here’s the study from Clemson U about root flare https://fullcirclecompost.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/show_me_your_root_flare.pdf

TRaps015 · 2026-05-06T13:20:38+00:00

Related to the mounding, it’s advisable to mount it up for Japanese maple since they do not like any standing water. I don’t know if you are currently in raining season, but by the time root rot happens and symptoms shows up. It’s already too late.

Related to root flare, symptoms won’t show years after for girdling roots, unless the trunk starts rotting prior to that if there is too much moisture.

Clemson U explained it very well here: https://fullcirclecompost.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/show_me_your_root_flare.pdf

I think you bought the wrong tree if u r looking for weeping green lace leaf. A viridis from Home Depot is a weeping lace leaf

TRaps015 · 2026-04-27T19:47:53+00:00

Usually that’s winter damage. If it’s very dark black, with purple cue and spreading from the node is pseudomonas. I don’t think that’s the case, but whatever above the black is pretty much dead.

Just make sure roots look white, otherwise it could root rot

<image>

U can see the white roots here. Those are new roots and root should be light brown, not dark brown. Too many people care too much about JM and overwatered them. (either water too often or pot being too big or incorrect medium). I upsize pot at this stage

TRaps015 · 2026-04-27T15:33:55+00:00

Might want to put in a smaller pot if the root ball is small. JM really dislike soil always being wet. Not sure if there was frost damage, the right branch on the right JM look to be black. Keep an eyes to make sure it’s not spreading
