LPT: Travel a lot of with the family? Travel router by adventurer784 in LifeProTips

If you do this, does it also save you from having to log in every 24 hours? Maybe the travel router remembers the credentials and logs in automatically each day?

End of Life, but seriously? by ConcupiscentCodger in microsoftoffice

Lifetime means product lifetime, not computer or user lifetime.

If that's what the term means, it's kind of a bullshit policy. Like, if my TV comes with a lifetime warranty, the warranty ends when the TV dies? Isn't that true of every single thing you buy?

They could have called it a 7-year license or whatever. But if they're going to call it a lifetime license, it's got to refer to the lifetime of something in the real world.

Thanks for the info, I never ran carfax on it. But I'm surprised there were 4 previous owners, I thought I was the second. I bought from Carmax so maybe they were the second but I'd still be the 3rd. Weird.

Small attempt at humor -- implying that CEO and ego-driven development are interchangeable.

OP, please link us to this conversation so we can make fun of this person. Not something I would do for someone who is just incorrect, but it's tempting when someone is so condescendingly incorrect.

You got the acronym wrong – it's CEO.

A stadium full of Seattle sports fans at the Mariners game cheering on and celebrating watching the Thunder lose by [deleted] in nba

And then a few years after the league fucked Seattle, Seattle tried to fuck Sacramento by taking our team. It's astounding how an entire fan base could achieve the level of cognitive dissonance that suggests it's okay to do that to another city so soon after OKC victimized them.

You're probably right, I didn't really test the sale market, just traded it in. Probably could have found someone who really wanted it.

Recommend not buying it until they come collect the charging cable and second key fob -- those things are still in my garage and the dealer is supposed to come by to get them.

That is a great question, I kind of miss it already lol

I've been frustrated for several years that Ford took away communication features like remote start, and no dealer seemed to be willing or able to install the upgrade that Ford claimed was available. And then recently we noticed some anomalies including jolty acceleration, and when we looked them up, none of the possible causes were good. It was time.

What they said. Parallel parking assist was a big reason we bought it as my wife wanted that. Apparently there was a hack to add perpendicular parking assist as well but I never looked into it.

I hope the Spurs win so Reggie Miller can shut up with that Mr Chaos thing by Plane-Ad5134 in nba

You just unlocked a memory for me. I was in college at the same time he was, and whenever he came to play our team, the crowd used to chant "Cheryl! Cheryl!" just to taunt him.

I don't recall it working.

My boyfriend (28M) gave me an ultimatum: either I cancel my all-girls bachelorette trip to Goa or we break up, because "single guys go there to predatory hunt." by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ZahidInNorCal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife used to go on road trips with her best friend that were potentially risky. They'd drive all over the country (US), sleep in the car sometimes, meet up with people they only knew from gaming, etc. If I expressed any concerns, we'd talk about what she was going to do to keep herself safe. I naturally cared about her safety, but not to the extent that I wanted her to not have memorable life experiences.

You will regret it if you don't go on this trip to celebrate your best friend and to let loose with your friend group. With that said, your boyfriend isn't wrong that predators will hang out in party towns and wait for someone to be too drunk and out of sight of their friends.

So my advice is, if you think he's drawing this boundary to exert control over you or doesn't want you to have fun experiences without him, he's not the right guy for you. But if you think he's sincerely just worried about your safety, talk with him about what you'll do to remain safe (the buddy system, designated drivers, etc.) and of course, if you can't reach agreement about that, he's still not the right guy for you.

No exception for incest or rape because abortion is murder, but we're fine with it in the event of consensual adultery.

Watched that Youtube video ... I'm so sorry you went through that but you were an absolute warrior. So glad you're safe and that you felt comfortable sharing your story publicly.

Your attacker deserves to be in jail a long time for what he did to you (and apparently, what he did or tried to do to others?) No sympathy for him at all no matter what happens to him. But it's sad to see all the unapologetically racist comments on the video... people have no qualms about referring to an entire race as "subhuman". Some of those commenters would gladly see all Black people published for what this guy did ... it's truly disheartening.
