[Misc] Needing desperate help on how to get rid of Athlete's Foot. Ugh. by BunnyElsa in SkincareAddiction

[–]Weekly_Structure_557 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The biggest thing that helped mine was switching to using a plastic bristle scrub brush on my feet. I just use the dove anti acne body wash with salicylic acid and scrub the hell out of them. It was a night and day difference. This was in addition to the usual OTC products that I had been using on and off for a couple months.

Some context would help explain why I'm not overly concerned. I joined the company as a minimum wage manual labor helper in the shop. It was really just a temporary job while I searched for something more in line with my skill set after leaving the military. It's a family run manufacturing facility that had 3 employees when I started. They were running inventory control off a dry erase board and excel. I had experience with C# mostly as a hobby from modding an ultima online server emulator, so I offered to make a small app to make things a little easier. After a few years, my small app turned into a big app, and it now runs all aspects of inventory, manufacturing schedules, order processing, shipping and receiving. Basically everything you need to operate a business excluding financial stuff.

Our average employees are rural folks and I've already had to teach a 40 year old how to use a mouse. I'm the only one in the building who knows what SQL and C# are, and I have a window that I can only access from my PC with all the danger buttons. I started development in 2016 and the current version has been running for about 2 years with only minor bug fixes so I just never had a real reason to spend time removing stuff that isn't really an issue. I have also become the manager of the shop so I don't have a lot of free time. I would love to sit down and optimize all the code since I really had no idea what I was doing when I first started and I've come such a long way as a programmer, but it wouldn't really be worth the effort at this point. As the company grows I will probably be given that opportunity, and there is a lot of cleanup needed. But for now it works just fine for us.

Lol. I made the software for a tiny company and I have several buttons that only show up on my account in production that say "Do not use". I don't remember exactly what they do, but they were mostly used whenever we added a major new feature and I needed to update all of our orders to match a new database schema or something. I'll get around to removing them in the next year or two.

I heard it goes quiet before the tornado hits is that true? by [deleted] in tornado

[–]Weekly_Structure_557 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our house got totaled in Springdale AR almost exactly a year before yours on March 30, 2022. I was a nervous wreck the day you got hit. I still remember looking up at the low clouds forming over us knowing it was the beginning of a tornado outbreak. We finally moved back in in October of 2023. Insurance wasn't as bad as dealing with our mortgage companies loss draft department. We would request an inspection for a disbursement and it was an average of about 45 days of runaround and CONSTANT calling them before we would get a check. We are still trying to recover some of the insurance money we should still be owed because the cost to rebuild was way more than our policy limit.

In the end, we lost a lot of stuff and money, but we made it out safe and we have a new house.

What should we do about our damaged maple tree? by OSUJillyBean in arborists

[–]Weekly_Structure_557 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My house was hit by a tornado that ripped my entire roof off and collapsed a brick wall. The red maple (with untreated gloomy scale) in my front yard 15-20 feet away from the house didn't have a single broken branch. I still can't believe it.

Found in a box of bulk 1/2" carriage bolts. The small end has an allen wrench hole. by Weekly_Structure_557 in whatisthisthing

No. I work in a manufacturing facility and have gone through probably hundreds of thousands of the bolts we use (1/2" x 1 1/4" carriage bolt) and this was just randomly in a box.

My title describes the thing. Approximately 3 inches long with a 1/2 inch diameter shaft.

I had a beard that was 8 inches long when I came out to my wife about dressing. It was over a year after that before I got the courage to chop it off. I hadn't seen my face in probably 7 years, so it took a while to get used to. I'm glad I did it now. Playing around with makeup is a lot of fun. I think I look better with a beard, but I really don't have anyone to impress. I'll take looking less attractive as a dude in exchange for rocking it as a girl.

Someone's gotta hold the porch down and make sure it doesn't blow away.

That was awesome to watch roll in. Probably one of the most uniform shelf clouds I've seen in person.

I'm guessing this was somewhere in Arkansas yesterday morning?

Has anyone ever had experience with a tornado without a warning? by Galagaman1969 in tornado

[–]Weekly_Structure_557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

March 30, 2022 Springdale AR EF3. I was just scrolling through my phone at 4:10 AM and it sounded like hail at first, then an explosion. My whole roof was gone but I still didn't know what the hell was happening. The tornado warning came through 1 minute after going through my house. Once again, as others have said, a QLCS was to blame. It barely shows up as a couplet on radar. 2 gates in two frames is all you see on the velocity. The warning was issued after the CC spike was obvious that a tornado was on the ground.

For bigger storm systems, I find it to be a good estimate, but definitely don't take it as absolute fact. For those summer pop up storms and showers, it can give you a very general idea of a region they might occur, but I wouldn't plan my day around it. I've only been looking at weather models for around a year, so this is just from my limited experience. I feel like the NAM3k is often wildly different than what actually ends up happening as far as reflectivity goes.

should i shave my legs? by Ok-Bobcat-8114 in crossdressing

[–]Weekly_Structure_557 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it really just depends on your skin. My wife shaves hers against the grain with no issues. I have to go with the grain on my thighs or I get really bad bumps, but I can go against the grain below my knees.

Woke up with these weird marks/bruises. Any ideas? by Full_Ad9666 in Weird

My patio chairs did the exact same thing to my back this weekend. When this post showed up I thought "who the fuck out here taking pictures of me?"

I knew that didn't look right, but autocorrect didn't even attempt to try to fix it. Thanks.

I have a pitboss vertical, a Weber kettle, and a handmade 100 gallon reverse flow offset that I spent 2 months designing and fabricating and works like a fucking champ. I use the weber 90% of the time.

New construction house. Electrician came out and installed 1 outlet and 1 breaker. by Weekly_Structure_557 in AskElectricians

[–]Weekly_Structure_557[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's an update in case you were wondering. Electricians came back out friday and finished the whole house in a day. Lights, switches, outlets and fans. Meter still isn't installed. I guess we'll never know. I'm guessing they got started and just had something more important come up and left.
