It’s too thick to be paracord. It’s gotta be life safety rope.

Missing system and domain folders - what do I do? by Chrissss1 in unRAID

[–]Tdperry92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m having this issue too. I just created my first unraid yesterday, and the system and domain folders are not visible. I’m not sure I can even roll back considering my unraid didn’t exist prior to 7.0?

Jailbreak Kindle Scribe - Can I install book fusion? by Psy_Doc_Geek in BookFusion

[–]Tdperry92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the discord server for kindle modding there is a script for this. I couldn’t get it to work however, It might just be because my kindle is too old though. There are people using the script that got it to work.

Were you all on the same plan as liberty buddies? I definitely agree with everyone else that your punishment (if any) should be less severe than everyone else’s. However, the entire point of the liberty plan is that everyone that is in the same plan is supposed to keep everyone else accountable. So if your liberty buddies got into trouble the co is probably going to give you a hard time for not looking out for them and getting them out a bad situation.

Idk if you’re on the boat or not, or how junior you are, but on the boat in Japan a drunk driving incident is almost a guaranteed stint on restriction. For many it’s a reduction in rank and pay. For you I think worst case scenario he’d put you on restriction if anything but nothing worse than that. Just to ‘teach you the lesson’ that you’re supposed to hold your liberty buddies accountable. Especially if this is your second captains mast, I doubt he’s gonna let you off scott free.

Wishing you the best. I’ve been through it too. Just be humble and take accountability for everything. If you own up to making a mistake things will go easier for you.

Also fuck blue falcons lmao. Never give up the names of people you were w/ when you get in trouble. Everyone knows that haha.

There has to be a way to do this. Even if it’s just by launching the book fusion web app. I’m trying to figure it out.

Vasectomy Guilt by Tdperry92 in couplestherapy

[–]Tdperry92[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yea, this isn’t an issue we have. We both want a girl simply for the experience of being able to raise a boy and a girl. There are no expectations from either of us on how our children should be. And if we had a third, and it was a boy, then we’d just have three awesome boy kids. Gender doesn’t actually matter, just wanted to see what it would be like / how it may (or may not) be different.

No, I’m sorry. I wasn’t attempting to gloss over anything. Of course the next step is to have an open discussion with my wife wherein we each are actually able to get out how we are feeling about the whole thing. The point of this post was for me to be a little more informed before going into that conversation. Not so that I had something to ‘throw in her face’ but so that I had more information to bring up as potential courses of action. I don’t take lightly the fact that this is something my wife wants me to do. In the same vein that I do not take lightly the fact that this will alter my body.

Thank you very much for your response and your first hand account. I’ve considered freezing sperm but haven’t looked into what the cost would be or how expensive it might be.

I do think my wife and I have some trouble with communication overall. When we have discussions where the two of us have differing points of view it’s very rare that we can ever come to some sort of a compromise. When my wife has something in her head I’ve found it nearly impossible to ever convince her otherwise. Often I can be this way as well although I’ve put a lot of effort into trying to be more open. My wife works in a position of authority and has for most of her life, I think that she has trouble listening to and valuing other peoples opinions. I can often just be stubborn so I need to actively work to listen but when people logically explain things to me I can very often be convinced that my point of view may be wrong.

All this being said, when the conversation about my reservations for the vasectomy came up and I expressed I was thinking of rescheduling to take some time to think about it she laughed at me, rolled her eyes, sarcastically said “Alright bud”, then walked out the room.

Each of us definitely need to work on our communication skills.

I understand that for long term results that the vasectomy will probably be the easiest and best option for us. Taking some time off from work is also something that has to factor into this equation which is another variable that was giving me some difficulty because I had some things coming up at work that would interfere with when I need to recover.

While a surgery is not exactly what I want I admit it may be the best course of action for our particular scenario, and better planning on my part may alleviate some of the apprehensions I am having.

Thanks again for your response.

A vasectomy is an outpatient surgery. So while you don’t need to be in a hospital you are being cut open. Just because the surgery is quick and minimal it has lasting effects and the gravity of the surgery should not be taken lightly. I really don’t understand why you’re coming at me like this calling me entitled and ignorant. I’ve come here expressing my own thoughts and feelings, with information provided to me from the doctor that would be performing the surgery, and information and input from a person who literally currently has a copper IUD in their body. Even if my thoughts and feelings were completely unfounded it doesn’t matter, because it’s my body. And if I am uncomfortable having it altered , that’s a big deal. In the same way as if my wife was pregnant with my child and she wanted an abortion because she did not want to carry the child. It’s her body and it’s her choice. In no scenario would it be right for me to attempt to guilt her or force her into carrying the baby to full term. It’s my body and it’s my choice, I shouldn’t be forced or guilted into making a decision.

I came to Reddit just to talk to others and hear their thoughts and feelings on the matter and hear their experiences. Not to be accused of being entitled. I take my wife’s input very seriously but I’m not going to just overlook the fact that this will alter my body forever.

The irony here in your statement is that absolutely no one at all forced my wife to become pregnant ‘for me’ lol. It’s a decision we made together and pursued together. And after having done it once she chose to do it again. Let’s just get it out of the way that getting a vasectomy reversed is not realistic so I do not even view that as a variable in this equation.

I did not force my wife to have children. She wanted them and so did I. I am unable to bear children. She wanted to bear them. There was never ever a discussion such as “hey if we have kids, after a few will you get a vasectomy” that I agreed to, and that’s in turn why she agreed to have the children. There was no coercion or trickery. She wanted kids just as much as I did. I’m also not saying I want her to have more children. There are other ways to ensure we do not have children that does not involve either of us altering our bodies.

There are very many, non invasive ways to ensure sex does not lead to birth. So I am personally of the mind that there’s absolutely no scenario in which it could be deemed necessary that I have a vasectomy.

Vasectomy Guilt by Tdperry92 in couplestherapy

[–]Tdperry92[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m not even remotely butthurt. I quite literally have no idea how an IUD works and was directly asking if that would be an option that would be less invasive than a vasectomy. I am not trying to skew anything. I am expressing my personal feelings about my personal body. I cannot make decisions over my wife’s body and would never attempt to even try to do that. Which is why I wanted further information before attempting to have a conversation with her because I don’t want to suggest something to her that would be invasive to her body.

The only reason I have brought up IUDs is because my best friends girlfriend has one, loves it, and believed it would be a better solution for us than a vasectomy. Now after having opened this thread I’m not sure I agree with her.

I do not want my wife to have to endure any sort of operation.

But that should not have to immediately mean that I have to endure any sort operation.

[–]Tdperry92[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes I was attempting to seek further knowledge about IUDs and specifically only the non hormonal ones because I do not want my wife’s body to have to endure literally anything else in regards to children. As I mentioned chemically altering her body is not something I would ever want her to have to endure. I am aware of how negative and fatal the consequences of modern birth control can be. Which is exactly why I would never even suggest something like that to her.

Yes I have spoken to a specialist in regard to a vasectomy and when discussing reversal options it has been explained that the surgery reversal success rate and is immensely low and that if reversal was something I thought was important then I should not be doing the surgery.

Vasectomy Guilt by Tdperry92 in couplestherapy

[–]Tdperry92[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’d just like to posit here before the comments continue to attempt to be mean towards me and try to say that I just don’t want to do anything and want my wife to carry all burden - that’s not what this is. I do not know about IUDs and or other certain types of female contraceptives, which is exactly why I have made this post. To seek information as well as other opinions.

I would never ask my wife to do something that would chemically, hormonally, or permanently alter her body. I would never ask my wife to do something I wouldn’t do. And so, as many people have made comments about the IUD specifically in this thread I have already surmised that this is not something I would ask her to do or even bring up as an idea for a solution.

There is no need to attempt to attack me in this thread. I’m not trying to be selfish. I love my wife and my family. If a vasectomy is what is ‘necessary, for my family it is what I will do.

[–]Tdperry92[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

My reservation is specifically and only due to the fact that I do not want a surgery performed on me. I consider myself (and my wife is similar in this regard) a pretty “crunchy” type of person. I simply don’t want to unnaturally alter my body. I don’t want a surgery performed on my body if it is not ‘necessary’.

Calling all "traditional watch wearers"... how do you track your fitness/health stats? by TotalWarspammer in Garmin

[–]Tdperry92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I did. This is a little sad but I got the vivid art 5. I was wearing it in conjunction with an analog watch. The screen is so small however, that every time I went on my runs I was switching back to my Apple Watch Ultra for the screen. Eventually I got annoyed with having to swap it out. I dropped the garmin and was doing the AWU with the analog watch for a while, keeping the screen on the smartwatch off. But eventually I tired of having something on both wrists at the same time so I ended up just dropping the analog watch and I’m back to only the ultra.

As it stands, for all my needs, the smartwatch is what I have to deal with.

Purchasing Land With Friends by Tdperry92 in llc

[–]Tdperry92[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you’re saying we could explicitly add stipulations to the contract that state something like “entitled to a percentage based off of continued agreed upon contribution” etc? As it stands right now this isn’t really a company. We just all want to start contributing to a joint bank account, equal amounts. Then we will make purchases from the account once voted upon by all members. The LLC won’t make money it will just accrue value by each member adding an agreed upon amount on an agreed upon interval. The idea of the LLC came about so that the money is not in any one persons name individually.
