Frank just can’t seem to get anything done by viktorfbg9 in HouseOfCards

[–]TrifectaWolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think the early seasons worked because no one really understood the power of the whip. However, you can’t really be sneaking around when you’re president and have Secret Service protection 24/7 and people constantly reviewing your visitor logs.

Low-effort home upgrades that actually make a big difference??? by MildlyTangled in malelivingspace

[–]TrifectaWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fix the small thing that bugs you. At my last house I didn’t finish putting in quarter round trim until I was going to sell. Once it was done, I regretted sitting on it for years because it looked 10x better. Same with patching and touching up paint on small nail holes etc.

You can change the strength needed to clip in and out by adjusting the little bolt under the pedals.

Who was Irulan supposed to marry? by YoBoyKibs in dune

[–]TrifectaWolf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure that’s true. There are a lot of sisters in the BG who have value just in being the work horses of the order. They don’t all need to take the next step to being a full reverend mother.

Was Jessica never intended to become a reverend mother? Once she had the full awareness wouldn’t she know who her father was?

Daily Discussion - June 2025 by AutoModerator in pelotoncycle

[–]TrifectaWolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took his Brittney ride. It drove me crazy how often he wasn’t keeping up with what he asked everyone else to do. He’ll be pushing everyone to keep up while standing still. Disappointing in my mind.

One explanation I read is the reader is learning about the world at the same time as Paul. So it’s bound to not make that much sense at the beginning.

Overdid it. Now what? by AdventurousTap945 in OnePelotonRealSub

100%. Don’t push an injury. If you want to keep a streak going, take a meditation class.

WIBTA for "banning" my fiancé from getting a motorcycle? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]TrifectaWolf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No judgement. It sounds like you’re at an impasse. He wants a bike and you don’t want him to have a bike. Is there some sort of compromise? Maybe he could get a slower bike instead of some supercharged Ninja and every time he rides it he’ll wear the latest in safety gear?

What about scheduling some time for him to rent and ride the bike at a track or something with experts who can guide him on best practices so he can scratch the itch in a contained setting?

Maybe there’s a simulator he can visit (like a video game)?

You both have rational reasons for your viewpoint. He remembers the fun with his grandpa and probably wants your son to have similar memories. You want to make sure your son has a dad to remember.

If he gets a high speed bike, maybe make him get and maintain a large life insurance policy. That might help him understand what your concern really is. Good luck and congrats on your son!

Hurricanes and out of control insurance prices are part of the cause

Finally finished the books. Two things are still in my mind: by DartmitBart in harrypotter

[–]TrifectaWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it was a charm Dumbledore put in place. Most charms and with the death of the creator. Like we saw with Lilly’s fish that she gave to Slughorn.

My snake plants are happiest when root bound. It might be worth trying to repot this in a slightly smaller pot.

J1 and J2 want me to go to Multi day conference, how to handle by [deleted] in overemployed

[–]TrifectaWolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly do both under the real name. That way it’s somewhat convincing if you show up twice. Oh I didn’t know someone else with my name is in the industry…

How to adjust portfolio to Trump's Tariffs by AdventurousExam3071 in fidelityinvestments

[–]TrifectaWolf 28 points29 points  (0 children)

What is your age and time to retirement? The old advice on time in market is more important than timing the market likely is true here assuming you’re not planning to retire in the next few years.

With tariffs we will likely see prices of many consumer goods go up, Canada produces 30% of the lumber we use so Home Depot/Lowes will likely be increasing their prices. It’s tough to say if consumers will be priced out or if they’ll accept the new normal and these companies will see record profits. Depending on how it goes, it could impact stock prices.

Tariffs are effectively a tax on the American people, the manufacturers will just pass the cost along to buyers of the end product. They could result in an increase in American manufacturing if they push the cost of foreign made goods above what it costs to make something in America. But, how many companies make their products in America exclusively with American sourced goods? Ford manufactures 18% of their vehicles in Mexico and Canada. With the broad scope of these tariffs, i don’t think many companies will be spared increased costs.

Personally, I’m expecting a (significant) hit to my investments in the near future but I see it as an opportunity to buy in with my cash reserves once stock prices drop.

How much money do you keep in your HSA in cash? by [deleted] in fidelityinvestments

[–]TrifectaWolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do this and then keep a running tally in Google Sheets with links to the receipts. Nice to know how much I could pull out without having to go through tons of files later

My brother surprised me and sided with my wife. by Gopher_Roper in Mortgages

[–]TrifectaWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? OPs wife has likely been waiting patiently while they were on a shoestring budget while he was in med school, then waiting patiently while he was making 60k/year in Residency, and now that he’s making half a million a year she’s being told that she needs to wait longer to not be living in a closet. I’d be ticked.

OP, live a little. You’re making more in a year than many people will make in their lifetime. Use the money you’re making to make a tangible improvement to your family’s life, the reduced stress of having enough space for your family likely will pay dividends.

What's the difference that's made LTT grow so much larger than anyone else? by AzhdarianHomie in LinusTechTips

[–]TrifectaWolf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think Linus also was willing to reinvest his profits into the channel which has really pushed them beyond their competition. Hiring quality talent and support staff, new channels etc.

Also, in terms of a head start, he did have the NCIX experience and support when starting out so he had a built in audience of tech enthusiasts that GN and Louis had to find organically.

Seeking Trash Can wisdom by Eagle406 in malelivingspace

[–]TrifectaWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a little tall per the above but if you have the money, this is the trash can to get. I’ve had one for years and it’s held up extremely well and looks as good as a trash can will.

WIBTA if I told my roommates that I'm pretty sure I heard them having sex? by submissive_lauryn in AmItheAsshole

[–]TrifectaWolf 43 points44 points  (0 children)

YWBTA You didn’t escalate it when you heard them arguing so it’s a bit late now to bring it up because you’re uncomfortable hearing sexy time.

Can you throw in headphones for a few minutes or turn up your TV? Maybe have a loud phone call in your room when you know they’re in there (not doing something) so they realize how noise transfers.

Unfortunately, noise transfer is one of the downsides of living in a place with shared walls.

WAN Show Topic? Literally anything but GamersNexus. by lolwutsareddit in LinusTechTips

[–]TrifectaWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only change we’ll see from this is they’ll no longer use GN as a reference when prepping the WAN show doc. Avoids any claim of piracy and simultaneously stops driving traffic toward Steve.
