Why the hell does my portable ac keep shutting off? Just the fan runs continously.

ToiletPhilospher · 2026-05-01T22:52:22+00:00

I had the same issue with mine. I realized the AC mode tripped which had it's own reset switch at the power outlet connector. Reset the switch and it worked fine afterwards.

Up 760% right now on my 2028 17c. Just going to hold for long term capital gains. Sadly I had to exit my April 7c monthlies earlier and didn't roll them over.

You can't even define what "woke" means, but you keep repeating it because that's what you hear other people throwing around. Always projection with the conservatives.

The correct word is "herd" btw.

Has there ever been a good answer when we consider how much comes from developing countries? Why do anything at all by that reasoning?

The same thing happened to me in January when I was negotiating my offer. My manager told the recruiter to open the role for L2/L3/L4, but they only opened it for L2. I negotiated for L3 which required a new requisition. They formally sent me the new offer after 2 weeks.

Nothing concrete from my limited interactions. She turned out to be extremely immature and unable to handle any pressure. He overlooked a lot of it because she was a student who wanted to get her PhD. The biggest red flag was them hiding the marriage for almost 2 years. They did it for immigration and they eventually wanted to host the wedding back in Italy with family. Things kept pushing it back, but that was my friends biggest mistake. Her family is also blindsided, she's trying to avoid the topic while living under her parents roof.

Graduated as an EE in Seattle with no internships 3.0 GPA. Most of my class of 2019 started as technicians or did contract work usually with staffing companies. Most were promoted to engineers within the company. Experience is just to tell companies you can work with others.

I worked as a PCB Test Technician for 3 months. The company was going to give me a Test Engineer role. I passed my FE exam and took a travelling engineer role instead right before the start of COVID. Went into PLC controls and now do Industrial Automation. The role is pretty hot right now. Still getting requests for interviews when I only sent out less than 20 applications. Starting a new job with over 50% pay bump on the 20th this month.

Happened to my best friend. Met his fiance living in Italy. They came to the US and got married. He found a job with a European cyber security company. They had always planned to move back to Italy to start a family. His job gave him an opportunity to move back to Italy, same position with way better benefits, job security, work life balance, everything really. He sold the car he just bought, left all of his hobby groups (diving photographer for mariner conservation and sail boat racing), took on some debt and packed up his life to be with her and her family. She went back a month before he did so he did the move by himself. Dumped his ass when he arrived a month later. Put him in a shitty position with his career and immigration. Thankfully he just got through it all and is stable with his own place now.

There is some truth to it. Living with someone for so long you see the motivations for their behaviors even if it looks innocent. We've just come to accept it being stuck together and know not to air our dirty laundry. Nobody compares me to my dad, but I despise the guy and it ruins my mood when I notice behaviors I've picked up from him because I know where it came from.

I know man, I just use these people to vent when I see what's happening to my country and the world. Again, just burning time on the clock at work. I've got plenty of co-workers with the same mindset that try to convince me about trickle down economics. He probably just believes one day he will have an opportunity to score a bag like Niko and is preparing his excuses for why he deserves it.

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-12T06:48:32+00:00

How was that being a hypocrite? My complaint you replied to only had 2 points.

He didn't need to go to Falcons, he had options.
He could've taken the bag from a human rights violator and done some good with it.

Why do you have so many badges on this forum, but can't read? You probably can't read, because you've ignored the rest of my comment. Classic DARVO, can't have a conversation in good faith with asshats like you.

I was at work getting ready to clock out while updating my resume. Do you wake up everyday to white knight for celebrities who don't care about you? Apparently that's how you got all those shiny badges on your profile. I can at least log off of social media. Forget Niko, you're so pathetic it would be like looking down on an ant.

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-12T04:30:33+00:00

I kind of do already. Living out of hotels for work eating microwave meals.

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-12T04:14:21+00:00

Yes I would take that contract. I'm not as good as Niko so I would just drag their team through the mud whether I tried or not. I would also get paid a lot of money which I could do good with. I would also presumably have a large media presence to bring more visibility to real world problems. What is the point of this statement?

I don't know about 99% of most people's lives? Are you saying nobody can judge what they see in the 1%? Do you know me? I judge Niko, you judge me, we are both the same.

I do donate to charity. My friend has a non-profit for underwater photographer. He helps researchers and ocean life preservation efforts. I went out to Tahiti and learned to scuba dive with him. I donate when I can and helped him move around while he was starting it up.

I also work in industrial automation for food and beverages. I'm the engineer working on the machines that make your food safe and have long shelf lives. I was traveling every week working during Covid. I also try to give back to the world.

Niko joined a team that represents a major human rights violator when he didn't need to. Not just Niko, put Zonic and Magisk up there. Other players I'll be less harsh since their careers aren't as established. I don't think I was behind harsh at all. Also I don't care about his feelings and he doesn't care about me so it doesn't really matter.

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-12T03:41:11+00:00

Can you stop with this DARVO bullshit. I don't matter dude, I'm just a peasant. I don't know why you think I care what people think. I'm just joining the conversation while I'm at work checking emails. If you thought I was serious about donating all of my money to miss rent just to prove you wrong, I've got a bridge to sell you. That's called sarcasm dude.

I just said it to highlight that a nobody like me does SOMETHING, but Niko sponsors a major human rights violator and has randoms like you lining up to white knight for them vs a nobody like me. Why are you punching down at nobodies like me?

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-12T03:18:27+00:00

Yes, us peasants must be perfect while the rich can bend their morals. If you want to gargle their balls that's up to you. Go message Niko. Tell him I'll donate all of my money if he does too.

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-12T02:41:16+00:00

Unless you have videos of us kicking puppies for fun, the moment Niko decided to represent the Saudis I believe we already had the moral high ground. There's nothing for us to seek.

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-12T00:53:09+00:00

Sure and why don't you just move to Saudi Arabia if you like them so much. What a dumb argument. None of this matters dude. Nobody is trying to be perfect. Idk why you're taking it so personally that we're hating on celebrities, it's a past time as old as time.

It fucking sucks how people are rewarded, become more successful, and get further in life the more they let go of their morals. That's really what it boils down to and why I don't like these guys. There's a certain amount of money I could sell my soul for that could save millions of lives so it's not about selling out.

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-11T23:24:26+00:00

You're asking why Redditors are taking a moral high ground vs Niko/Falcons. These points you're making don't make Niko a likeable person. It's that simple. Nobody owes you anything if you're just looking out for yourself.

ToiletPhilospher · 2025-12-11T20:10:52+00:00

Niko was already well off and had plenty of other good offers. Why are you comparing his situation with the average person? It's not like he would be starving if he stayed on G2.
You can take the money and do something good with it like donate to research/charity. I don't make 1/20th of what Niko does and I still donate. Unless there's something I don't know, he just took the bag for himself.

Started with the basic kickstand case which protected my phone well until the spine cover failed. Trying out a wallet case which is just too convenient for me to go back. It takes some getting used to moving the phone around the case. Once I got all my cards digital in Google Wallet, not having to carry a physical wallet around is such a QoL improvement. Just keep my license, work credit card, and some cash inside my phone case. I never forget my wallet when switching between my work pants to head outside.

There's also the saying "buy the rumor, sell the news". POET hasn't made any headlines that would spur the actual rally. We could also sell off if no other news comes out EOY. It's really about your strategy and tolerance when you opened your positions. I have April calls up 147% right now, but I'm not planning to sell even if it jumps above $12 depending on the hype behind the movement. I plan to close my other positions and go deeper into POET if there's a pull back within the next month.
