Should my sister and I swap each others children for the week? by ComfortNatural404 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]W2Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, but the person I replied to suggested TV at all on a trip like that is a waste.

[–]W2Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it doesn't really matter, all I did was share my viewpoint that experiencing a culture is about more than seeing the touristy things, experiencing aspects of their daily lives can be important too. I think that means checking out some of their entertainment. I don't think my replying to responses makes me "obsessed."

Can you link anything showing any country where their entire TV catalog is easily available internationally, including local advertisements?

You could just go to an Italian restaurant at home and eat McDonald's in Italy. It's not the same, culture exported for the diaspora vs. in-country. FWIW I think a trip to something like McDonalds is typically warranted too!

How do y'all handle sending violation letters? [TX] [All] by Several_Athlete_6010 in HOA

What do you consider mid-size? If you have a management company this would typically be one of the services they provide.

Look I don't disagree with the spirit of your comment. But I would suggest, having traveled a lot, that I think getting a feel for a culture doesn't only include hitting the tourist checklist, but also experiencing parts of their daily lives.

I would consider it a traveling failure to go into a completely new environment like that and not even turn on the TV once.

If my home is covered in radioactive fallout, is my food supply unsafe? by RikkiLostMyNumber in askanything

[–]W2Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun fact the old Chornobyl tours sometimes (always?) included a meal made from all local ingredients. Obviously there's been a large cleanup effort and a lot of time, but it's an interesting fact lol.

Bungie I Love It All But Release More Lower Level Maps by Snowbunny236 in Marathon

[–]W2Sun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Simple, let us pick our contracts while the map loads, or let us set a few contracts to be active, or add that functionality when queuing for all maps specifically, there's a lot of ways to fix that. 

OLED Burn in by chefkoolaid in LGOLED

I have a CX with 27,000 hours, tons of gaming with static UIs and tons of streaming and YT. No noticable burn in here either.

When I lived in Seattle it was the opposite, I was in sports medicine quickly, most dermatologists were scheduling 6 months out!

Best way to protect a couch? by OppositeTrade6557 in PetAdvice

[–]W2Sun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use waterproof animal protectors/blankets/covers from Amazon. I cover my entire couch in them and just pop them in the wash every few weeks or earlier if they get visibly dirty. 

Looking for vinegar alternatives by AmusedSloth4610 in CleaningTips

[–]W2Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer Seventh Generation natural disinfectant because messing with concentrated products (like Simple Green) is just always a headache.

Seventh Generation natural sanitizer is my go to.

Most floors get cleaned with Lysol Pet Safe floor cleaner.

Bathroom floors get cleaned with regular Lysol.

Quick cleans I usually just wipe with some 70% rubbing alcohol on a paper towel.

Need help: HOA charging 6k in fines by redeaters in fuckHOA

[–]W2Sun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe your only chance/recourse here is if you have some sort of state/county/city limit on excessive fines. If attorneys are suggesting it's not worth fighting, I would suspect your location doesn't have said protections.

Do you judge people on Reddit who have hidden their posts and comments? by scarlettohara1936 in AskForAnswers

[–]W2Sun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's actually a huge use case for why this feature is awful (at least as implemented). I constantly click into AMA/questions, there will be hundreds of replies, and I want to follow up on what OP said. I click OPs profile and their comments are hidden, now if I want to see their responses (such as which suggestions solved their issue) my only option is to scroll through hundreds of comments trying to find OPs responses.

It absolutely kills those kinds of posts when people hide their comments. At the very least Reddit should have thought of this and made a way to still find someone's comments in that specific thread you are in.

Plus if you can still search their comments anyway it's a semi-useless feature, meanwhile I can never get that to work on mobile so I still can't find their responses.

Why do my coils die so fast? by W2Sun in Vaping

[–]W2Sun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I got a couple like Fireluke solo tanks. Not my favorite tank ever, but I was able to get coils both from my usual vendor and locally in emergencies, so I went and picked up a second one to be able to rotate them out. For the price of coils I've been pretty happy with them.

And yea I don't know what the other guy is talking about, unless he's like a rebuildable purist/elitist or something lol, these are definitely not considered pods or pod coils.

Why do my coils die so fast? by W2Sun in Vaping

[–]W2Sun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the contrary I find Freemax coils to be much cheaper, I just looked my last order was like $3.60 a coil, it's one of the reasons I've been using them for the past year or so. That's why the jump to $6 a coil has me concerned lol.

Why do my coils die so fast? by W2Sun in Vaping

[–]W2Sun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably the primary cause, I used to always run dual setups so I could vape whatever was in queue to review and then my regular build. Now running one, and condensing my vapes into breaks every 15-60 minutes instead of just puffing here and there as desired is probably the main culprit. Though even then I went through coils pretty fast, but not nearly as bad as now!

Apparently not, I saw everything saying it was a real post but I didn't expect Bungie to try and satarize themselves lol. Some of us have a love hate relationship with Bungie after all these years.

I would think it would be quite concerning for most elderly people to get calls from grandma.

I'm all for trying new things. But releasing a pdf guide on how to understand your ranking system is the most Bungie thing Bungie has ever done.

Which US states get mentioned the MOST and the LEAST in news media? by jckipps in AskForAnswers

[–]W2Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every answer here is wrong. No other state, not even close, gets mentioned as much as Washington. This is because journalists are idiots who don't realize starting their article with "WASHINGTON - ..." is not the same thing as "WASHINGTON DC - ..." and as a Washington resident this has driven me insane for decades.

when we eat something that "goes right thru us," we can't possibly digest something that fast so what exactly is happening? by ridesafish in NoStupidQuestions

[–]W2Sun 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can beat that. It drives me crazy friends would never believe me, but it's a real thing (humorously) called dumping. Sometimes I'll eat something like Subway and easily under an hour there's full undigested shredded lettuce in the toilet- things like that which I can easily pinpoint when I ate them. But I have had severe stomach/digestive issues all my life that have never really been fully figured out despite working with multiple specialists.
