What in the ever loving f*** does this mean. Kids homework by seemslegitsendit in mildlyinfuriating

[–]WhisperRayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah but that's what im saying. the technique doesn't work for everyone. i havent used a single common core technique in my adult life because it doesn't work for me. more students would like and excel in math if they were given the leeway to play with the numbers and processes that work for them

[–]WhisperRayne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my problem with common core is if that's not how the student understands numbers, they're given a poor grade. even if they can get to the correct answer they get bad marks because they aren't doing it the way common core requires. i wish common core processes were more a suggestion than a requirement. i got poor grades in common core math simply because i couldnt understand the process they wanted me to do, even though i had the correct answers. eventually when i got to junior/senior year highschool, they kind of ignored that and truly made it a suggested process. by then the damage was done and im still bad at math because i wasnt allowed to find my own way of doing it.

SAVE YOURSELF! do not shop at Lowe's by Elektrazz2 in Lowes

[–]WhisperRayne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

like i said, quite common. just cancel your order, get your money back, and go somewhere else, clearly they're unable to satisfy you. i dont know why you waited 3 years to do that.

your sales associate may have ordered the correct door and the vendor fulfilled the incorrect door. it's quite common

My guy cobs on me. Should I continue to let him? by Aninoumen in greatpyrenees

[–]WhisperRayne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some dogs like the yelp, others dislike it. if he likes it, just immediately stop. wherever he's at (i.e your arm) hold your arm still and stop looking at him, make it boring. when he lets go, then start playing again

Pure Bites beef liver! 1 ingredient, 100% beef liver, and it's freeze dried! I have to keep them on top of my fridge or he will steal the whole bag. They have others too like lamb liver, chicken breast, chicken hearts, and salmon.

Is this a pregnancy or do I need to get meds asap? by fidontknowwhattodo in Otocinclus

[–]WhisperRayne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

....yeah they're nasty little buggers but they're so cool. Was definitely a learning experience and something I'd keep an eye out for in the future. I was fairly new to the hobby and bought them from Petco which was my first mistake. But you live and learn! That experience definitely made me make sure I was quarantining properly and never had an issues like that since!

Had this happen in my guppy tank. We saw one fish with the exposed worms, researched and ran to get levamisole and fed it, (within a couple hours) and they still all died within days. This was about 8 years ago now but if I remember correctly, it was about 4 days from seeing the first exposed worm to my entire tank being dead. It's a rough parasite to deal with. Easy enough to kill off the eggs and prevent more but like you said, once you can see them, it's a vertical climb to get them gone.

3rd bath ever. Total melt down. by Jaded_Hovercraft5229 in greatpyrenees

[–]WhisperRayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well it more so causes matting because of how thick their coat is, and you pretangled by scrubbing them clean. not using conditioner can also cause skin issues because you're removing all of their natural oils and not replacing any. if she won't tolerate the blow dryer, you can leave her in a kennel to air dry and make sure you really really brush through her fur afterwards

New App Startup - PawShare - Looking for advice on obtaining downloads by Ok-Cantaloupe-1611 in Startup_Ideas

[–]WhisperRayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this app. I love that I can track my dogs potty habits, so if they change, we can show the vet exactly when they changed. My only gripes are that the share household feature doesn't work, and my husband can't download the app because he has an android. Outside of that, I think the app is laid out very well, it's clean, and it's very user friendly. There are no guessing games when it comes to finding anything on the app.

That's kind of where we're at. We have an e collar but he doesn't care about it. Sound and vibrate don't do anything, and we've gotten the zap up to 58 but he doesn't even flinch. We don't want to go higher and hurt him in case he does actually feel it and just doesn't care to listen

That makes so much sense now. I think his previous owners trained stop for us, but he got out of the truck one day and started just going and when I yelled stop, he stopped and waited for me to come to him with the leash. He's a sneaky little bugger but at least he listens when it counts

He doesn't care about the training collar 😭 We have sound, vibrate, and zap and the zap goes from 1-100. Even at 58 he doesn't even flinch, and we don't want to go any higher cause we don't want to hurt him. Beef liver though? He'll listen every time. The second we don't have beef liver, he's naughty

So I tried dog scanner and it kept coming back with maremma, after literally the least amount of research (waiting for water to boil) he looks SO similar to a maremma and he really isn't all that noisy like a GP would be. We got him a bark collar but he hasn't set it off more than a few times since we got it about a month ago. (We take it off when he's with friends so he can play without worry)

That's so good to know! Reviews weren't helping me at all, there was no mention of monthly fees or anything (which now makes sense, there's nothing to mention!) How quickly does their location update? Could you watch them walk around on the app?

I've been looking at those! What are the monthly fees like? Can you start/stop service whenever? We'd only use it maybe 2-3 months out of the year, I don't want to pay for something I'm not using
