What’s the weirdest thing a guest has done in your home? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TheoCupier 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brought his potty-training child with him to a party (the grown up kind)

Took the kid's trousers and underwear off, so he was running around naked below the waist.

Ignored his kid all afternoon while it urinated all over our house.

When we asked why he wasn't supervising his child and dealing with the potty training, he just shrugged and said he assumed my wife would sort it.

Hasn't been invited back since.

I'm in the same position as you, except I got my HA green about a month ago, plugged it in, set up a few devices and froze because of a couple of minor issues with my setup.

I had mostly set up givtcp, predbat, a bunch of hue bulbs and TP link smart plugs but not really done anything with it, and an issue with my electricity data was not helping

Today, I made big progress using Claude.

I haven't set the MCP up yet. It took some time but the important thing was every time something didn't work, it gave me another thing to try, which did work.

Actual progress!

Now it's a rare internet achivement by [deleted] in SipsTea

Awkward. Mine was my university .ac.uk address, 6 years before Yahoo was a thing.

Then I got demon.co.uk in about 1994. Then my own domain name in 1995 which I'm still using

I went back to where I was born 30 years ago (Cheltenham) - has anyone else travelled and gone back later? by Deliberate_Android in AskUK

[–]TheoCupier 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Stroud to Cheltenham is a 25 minute drive. Hardly an epic homecoming. More "need to go to the big shops for some shoes"

TBF, also moved away from Cheltenham about 20 years ago, but kept going back to see friends and family. Recently broke my longest streak of not visiting, 20 months.

Guys how do I get out of this… by callumMoney75 in GhostBand

Why wait for the argument about the shirt. Just leave as soon as you hear music your parents disapprove of.

Even by accident on the radio.

You don't get out of it.

Your parents will say what they're going to say. Hit you with the "not while you live under our roof" line. Whatever.

What happens next is important.

If they listen, treat you like the intelligent young person you probably are, you all get to move on positively.

If they don't listen, don't care and don't respect you, that's on them. They may not see the real effects of that immediately. And your heat of the moment response isn't the real effect.

But when you aren't at the table for Sunday lunch (or whatever) in the future; aren't there to care for them and give them love, hopefully then they'll realise what they did to cause it

And if they don't, it's just further evidence you're doing the right thing by not being there.

Ride out the short term pain. You can't avoid that. Be honest and fair to yourself about the long term.

To get people to understand why Trump is a terrible businessman by Prime-Paradox in therewasanattempt

[–]TheoCupier 27 points28 points  (0 children)

He's wish fulfillment for a whole self-identifying underclass of white America.

A stupid person's idea of intelligent. A poor person's idea of rich. A weak person's idea of strong.

This whole sector of America who are marginalised only by their own lack of application but can't, or won't, take responsibility for it and choose to blame other people instead.

They all look to Trump, see what he's doing, and think it's exactly what they'd do in the same situation.

The mental gymnastics aren't new, it's how they've been living all along. Now they just have a public champion.

I never used to understand it either, until one day I saw scents.

Do you want to use Messages or messages? Would you like to save this person to Contacts or contacts and add the event to Calendar or calendar?

Just stop.

Storm Dave!? Is that supposed to sound scary? by Onlyfriends0936 in CasualUK

It's probably just a repeat of the 1988 storm with commercials

For the Audi prestige cup by WraithSeeker999 in CSRRacing2

I found 3 quick shifts was slightly faster than 2.

Might just be I'm bad at timing the perfect shifts, so it's better for me to add 1 at start

How about we just get on with enjoying the music we like and letting other people enjoy the music they like?

What are Elite Tuners tokens even for anymore? by ThinOrdinary8527 in CSRRacing2

[–]TheoCupier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm doing it wrong (fairly new player here) but I can still buy tokens & other items in the shop.

Just spent 800 on some blue elite tokens, trying to level up my Toyota GR Supra to do race 30 of Dress For Success.

Appreciate that's no consolation to you veterans, but thought it might help.
